legs
« on: June 30, 2006, 03:05:44 PM »
the day after i do legs i get real tight and can barley walk, this pain goes on for about 3 days, i stretch every day and drink a ton of water any ideas on how to get past the cramping in my thighs. when i do cardio the following days after legs it really hurts as well and kind of limits my intensity.

if you do some light cardio like riding the bike a few hours after training legs, and then again the next morning, and the stretch both times you should feel a reduction in the tightness...

when i say light, i mean like 20 minutes on the bike at level 1-3 at 80rpm... nice and easy

You should work the legs more regularly-they're sore because your workouts aren't frequent enough.

Another possibility might be over-training, but the first possibility is the one to start with.

Try glutamine as well. I also found that When I started doing just treadmill for my cardio, my legs didn't get as sore.
