ive been lifting now for 6mo. i think my technique has improved a lot. im not strong but im definatly stronger than i was and it shows. now heres my concern. i often train to absolute technical sometimes muscular failure on small muscles (e.g., bicep/delts) but im never sore. I do a 6 day PPL split. but again i never get sore. im not young. but i dont get sore. is my intensity too low? i honestly work out for 1 1/2 to 2hrs each session with between 2 and 4 minutes between sets (4 for DL, 2 for shit like lunges). but im never sore the day after. am i not going heavy enough? is it possible to go to failure and not be pushing hard enough? does anyone else have this not getting sore shit? the only time i ever got soreness w as the first week i ever worked out where the DOMS was so intense i couldnt sit down to take a shit or walk down the stairs for a week

Brandon Thomas
You're getting stronger, so why are you even complaining?
Cooper Kelly
I was gonna say just attach a better pic but after reading your last paragraph you deserve it
Zachary Cooper
cunt DOMS and soreness are not the same thing dyel
Isaiah Murphy
>aks a fitness rleated quesiton >complaining this board is dead
Noah Jones
You do realize that DOMS are not necessarily a requirement for growth?
Lucas Taylor
of course. that isnt at all the point of the thread. the question posted. or the point of the discussion. i feel deeply frustrated by how explicitly i explained the question in painstankly detail so even the lowest IQ boomer could get it but here I am. elaborating to the point of nauseam.
>does anyone else not suffer soreness >does it imply i'm not training hard enough
Jack Cook
you only get DOMS if you work a muscle hard that you haven't worked in a long time like a month or weeks
Christian Lopez
>does it imply i'm not training hard enough As stated already, considering that you gain strength you are training hard enough, jeez
That is definitely not true. It just becomes duller and you get used to it
Mason Bailey
Jesus fuck, the state of this board.
Just because you aren't sore doesn't mean you arent working hard enough. Soreness isn't correlated with gains.
Also, just because you aren't sore doesn't mean that you can keep working the same group without any kind of recovery time. You'll end up going from feeling nothing straight to injury or snap city. The first sighn that something is wrong is going to be pain or limited ROM, and now you're looking at recovery time in the weeks, instead of taking a couple of days off every week.

that stupid. making gains and maxing gains are not the same thing. i can make gains by increasing my bench by 1kg per year but no one's going to be glad about that. im not talking about DOMS bro based JEFF says you should feel sore after his workout. but ive never felt sorness no matter how hard I smashed a muscle.

Are you OP? What's up with fondue and potatoes?
Isaiah Hernandez
nothing wrong with eating fondue with potatoes. but that image is raclette not fondue.
>potatoes Come on man. A little bit of beef or apple if you want some carbs.
Tyler Myers
>beef with fondue ? do you mean chinese fondue? it's not made with cheese its hot oil + thin strips of beef. also fondue is normally eaten with an apero of dried meat. dont get what you're saying at all desu
>also fondue is normally eaten with an apero of dried meat. I've always put strips of sirloin in my fondue. I don't know what the fuck you are on about with all this chinese stuff.
>yank I'm posting from Lausanne and work for nestle bro. the fuck are you talking about. the link is to chiense fondue which is hot oil in a pot you put thin strips of meat in.
why is this retard LARPing at me about my countries food lamo dont (you) me again mutt
lmao fuck me you're retarded good run. Fondue was invented in the early 1900s in Switzerland to offload our not-very-good cheese onto tourists as a local delicacy in Valais. it caught on because melted cheese is pretty good and spawned many derivatives; including the abomination you call fondue where you put """Sirloin""" into hot oil -- which is called "Chinese fondue". glad I could help you mutt-expat living in Sweidstan
Soreness experienced after lifting IS DOMS you retarded faggot. Post body

I think after you exercise for more than a month or two, your body stops getting sore unless you switch programs. If you do the same workout plan week after week, your body will adapt to be able to do that workout without tearing itself apart. Intensity may be something you can increase, or just change up the types of exercises you do. I'm no expert so do some actual research tho.
Xavier Ramirez
What exactly do you mean by never sore? The soreness you felt in the first week will not come back if you stick to a similar training regimen. It might come back if you suddenly massively increase the volume, even if working out at lower intensity. If that's what you're expecting, you don't need to feel that. Do you never even experience very minor soreness?
Sebastian Long
nothing. no soreness ever. since i homegym ill sometimes workout until i physically cannot even move my own body weight but still i cannot seem to achieve muscle soreness
Colton Phillips
