Insanely SORE from Snowboarding, what do I do?

Question

I have the worst sore muscles ever from snowboarding for the first time. My neck, legs, back, arms, even hands. Any tips on making them feel better? I didn't realize snowboarding would be so strenuous. Or more like falling all day on a hill. LOL.

Answer 1

Ibuprofen, ben-g*y, OH !!! epsom salts in a hot soaking bath is really the best !!! get a half gallon size(drug store, grocery store, easily available) and pour half of it in a nice soaking tub of hot-warm water....it is THE best !! (...and remember to stretch before and after next time !!!)

Answer 4

lol, not a lot to do. The first couple times going really kills you. Just rest those muscles. (light pain reliever) but i sort of like the feel of real muscle pain. Let's me know i'm getting stronger.

Answer 5

I know what you mean. Sometimes after i get home from snowboarding I am kinda sore too. Especially when i try to jump of a ramp that i know is too hard for me and bang! Right on my head (good thing i wear a helmet lol) anyway just rest a little bit, mabey watch some TV.sorry i can't be more helpfull...

good luck.

Answer 6

drink a bunch of water.. dehydration cramps muscles and slows healing. then take some ibuprofen and sleep it off. stretch several times a day especially before and after snowboarding
