Muscle soreness remidy

[stevesmi]

sleep more. lifters need more sleep then the avg adult who needs 7-8 hours. we need 8-10 hours.

also you can try massage and hot baths. but ultimately the best solution is gonna be splits.. I work out 6X per week and yes I have some soreness but because I have specific splits working muscle groups I can be sore in my legs and be able to do my upper body.. or be sore with my chest and be able to work my back. etc etc. so make sure you split up your workouts. work the same muscle groups every 4 days.. by then they soreness will be done.

and I dont know your situation but eventually you will want to use AAS to speed recovery once you are ready to take things to the next level.. AAS will increase RBC and speed up recovery

your splits look fine. I dont see why soreness is a problem.. you are working the same muscles every 6 days. if anything I would simplify it and go every 4 days.

this is my split

day 1: pushing muscles
day 2: pulling muscles
day 3: legs

mixing in cardio here and there AFTER my workouts. or light cardio before.. i do want to be fresh for my weight training.

I dont think muscle soreness is a bad thing bro, as long as your numbers on your lifts go up then u r golden

THAT IS A TON OF VOLUME TO PROGRESS ON!!!! If you are trying to get stronger...that is not the direction that you want to go.

I'd say cut that volume in half at least, eat more, sleep more, foam/PVC roll daily, etc...

Possibly look to rotate volume and weight over a 4 week cycle.
Week 1: slightly heavier, lower volume
Week 2: Moderate everything
Week 3: lighter, higher volume
Week 4: Deload or repeat

I know that Dave Tate did this when he was cutting and looking to gain/maintain some size at the same time.
