Working out when sore?

Does anyone know if its bad to workout when youre sore? I could barely sleep last night from the pain in my legs. And Im walking around like I have something up my butt. But I wanna go back to the gym today.

You will still be sore, so continue to work out. Just take it easy on those body parts. I find that doing cardio when I am sore actually helps me out more as it loosens my limbs.

I can't answer your question because I am not even really sure. But I have gone back to the gym the next day after feeling like I am ready to break.

I love that feeling, it gives me more motivation. Like I am actually working my muscles.

In my experience as soon as you are warmed up you will not even feel it anymore and usually after your next workout the soreness is gone

I would do it but just take it easy. If it is that painful just walk or take a day off. You do need to give your body a day of rest!

Always stretch before and after you work out. Its very important. I notice if i do a good stretch i dont get as sore. Also make sure you do less weights more reps. This is what my trainer makes me do.

Doing cardio will actually help because it increases circulation. Def. stay away from the weights though, and stretch when you're done!

Cardio sounds like a great idea!! Yeah- I agree, weights may be pushing it- but cardio should help you feel better!

Do some cardio....even if you do it slow, its better than nothing! And maybe do some weights on your upper body since your legs hurt so much. My legs are pretty sore too...I only took 2 weeks off from doing legs and they kill today!

I was actually wondering the same thing. Brian and I are starting up the gym again today, and I know tomorrow I'm going to be dying tomorrow!
