No Pain No Gain

I am in soooooo much pain right now!!!! I haven't been to the gym in 4 weeks & there are 46 more days until we get married so I need to get back in workout mode. Since we are getting married away and I am going to be wearing almost nothing for our honeymoon, I need to get my legs TIGHT & RIGHT!

So this past Saturday me and my FH decided to go to the gym together and boy did he work me out!!!! My legs are in sooooo much pain!!! I knew I was going to be sore, but damn! It hurts when I walk, sit down, sleep, and even when I use the bathroom. Don't even get me started about how much pain I am when I walk down a flight of stairs or when I get up from sitting in one spot too long!!!

OOOOOUUUUUCCCCCHHHHHHH

I went online to search for a few rememdies and I saw that I had DOMS - delayed onset muscle soreness. DOMS usually occurs 24 to 48 hours after an activity and typically lasts about 24 to 48 hours. Since it can be an uncomfortable 24 to 48 hours, here are a few ways for keeping the soreness under control:


* Progress slowly, don't overdo it.
* Warm up and cool down.
* Stretch daily, especially after exercising.
* Ice the sore area for 15 to 20 minutes/day.
* Hit the hot tub or bathtub.
* Take anti-inflammatory drugs (ibuprofen).
* Massage sore muscle or roll it out.
* Avoid strenuous activity.
