I am 18 yrs old and 106 lbs. I have been working out for 7 months. I do a different body part everyday. Mon: Chest, Tues: Back, Wed: Shoulders, Thur: Arms, and Fri: Legs. I use heavy weights to the point I can only do 4 sets, 5 reps for each exercise I do. I do ten exercises for each body part.The first couple of months I was sore. But now I never or hardly get sore. What should I do?

  1. First of all, I'm oscar from mexico, so my English is kind of bad, But I'm a bodybuilder...

    you are doing and because you are not sore, you are not getting results. You are just wasting most of the work outs.

    My knowledge from my experience, and all the information that I've learn through this years is that you chance exercises, also one week go as heavy as you can, and the next week you should go light weight doing more reps.

    I'll promise you'l be sore and you'll ge most out of a work out, also think about proteins, aminoacids, l'glutamine, and creatine for betters fast results.


  2. You should feel the "burn" but not the soreness of exercising.  I concur with the other answerer you probably were sedentary and started working out that was a paradigm change to your body.  Now that you're use to it no more soreness.  However challenge yourself and increase the number of reps, times of exercises each time.


  3. I just recently started working out and I experienced your same problem. When you first started working out, you probably weren't engaged in physical activity much and barely worked those muscles out. Once your muscles get used to lifting these types of weights, they are more flexible and are able to be worked without being sore later.

    I was only sore for like the first week I started working out.

    Just keep working out and it is a good thing that you are not sore after working out.

  4. Of course the first few months you would be sore because you body was never used to that much physical activity. Soreness is cause by the tearing of the muscle which is normal when your body isn't used to an exercise or  you didn't stretch before you exercise. After a few months, your muscles stretch out and are more used to you working out on a regular basis that they are more stretched out and don't respond in a negative way to your work outs. That's how you build muscle.
