Okay so I haven't worked out in 10 months. My first day back was last Saturday, where I did a little bit of chest and triceps (3 exercises)
The soreness is still severe, and it's Tuesday. I haven't touched a weight since.
As such I had a few questions...
For one... obviously I'm sore as shit because I haven't worked out in awhile. This is something I haven't had in a long time, so I'm wondering.
1. Is soreness correlated to recovery time, as to whether or not you work out the same muscle again?
2. Even though this is my first time working out, is this soreness telling me something about my recovery period for chest and triceps?
I don't wanna get in the habit of overtraining.
I replied to an old post about 2x a week per group, if y'all wanna look at that. It's about how many guys from 2017 to now are doing one body part per week (or per 72 hours) like Cutler did back in the day. Or so it's been said.
I haven't been this sore in a long time, so I'm kind of using it as a ridiculous gauging system.
