Should I be sore at the end of each boxing workout?

[nivek535]

you're not even worth the time.

u just spent time on me.
again.
hahahaha.

heres the science

working hard breaks down muscle fibers, they then grow back stronger

you can break em down and build em up without being sore

but the question is do you make faster progress if you get sore and allow time for recovery or if you dont really get sore but can train more frequently?

Old school methods are proven to work still to this day, id lean towards old school being correct, id back a calazagge over a jeff lacy anyday

wow, such impressive knowledge alex!

Being sore is a good thing...being too sore (and you'll know it) is called DOMS...delayed onset muscle soreness. It is from one of two things. 1) working muscles that haven't been worked out for a good period of time or 2) working out too hard. You'll know when this happens because you won't get sore until 2 or more days after and the soreness can seriously alter daily activities and last nearly a week.

I'm always sore initially right after the workout.

You are probably sore because you are new. Your body needs to adapt. Once you train more frequently and gain more experience, your body should adapt to the training. For the rest, being sore is nothing to be alarmed about. It comes with the territory. Just listen to your body and you should be fine.

You should really only feel sore after your first initial workout. If you are continuing to feel sore you need to cutback because that's a major sign you're doing too much. As each workout per day passes, gradually increase your activity (without soreness) until your body adapts to the stress you're putting on it. Before you know it you'll be able to put in the work you want with nothing but positive gains.

lol bull****.

If you're beasting out every day you should continue to be sore.

Not injury sore but yes you should be god damn sore.

You don't need to stop training just because of soreness unless it's very bad.

Are you opposed to taking supplements? If not, glutamine helps with the lactic acid build up in the muscles that is responsible for soreness. Give it a try. It's typically not very expensive either.

Your sore because its all still new to your body.

The fact that you said your hips are sore would worry me a bit.

Do you know the difference between joint pain and muscle soreness? Joint pain I'd be worried about it, muscle soreness I wouldn't be.

Make sure your stretching your hips muscles. Even if your active they tighten up.

Do you train the same way everyday?. Perhaps you should change it. You should not do heavy workout everyday. do an alternate workout of

heavy- light- average light.

Unless you are preparing for a fight heavy workout is not necessary, once a week will be enough

if it's muscle soreness you're getting it is because your body don't have time to recuperate from loss of liquids and nutrients. thus acid forming on your muscles.

Take some supplements.


If its joint pain. ( watch out and get it looked at by a doctor).
Hope this help.
