  1. 180 cals is nothing. you should aim for 1000cal immediately after a workout.

    soreness is normal if you have pushed yourself hard. it is a good sign.

    dont exercise the sore muscle groups until theyve stopped feeling sore.

    this may take up to 5 days


  2. IF YOU HAVE HAD A GOOD WORKOUT, YOU WILL BE THE SOREEST, ABOUT TWO DAYS LATER, IF YOU ARE TRYING TO BUILD MUSCLE DONT WAIT UNTIL THE SORENESS GOES COMPLETELY AWAY. I WOULD WAIT TWO DAYS AFTER CHEST TO DO TRIS, OR DO THEM THE SAME DAY AS CHEST AS THEY ARE A LOT OF THE CHEST WORKOUT.  

  3. Humm....... sounds like you just need the minerals I talked about in the other post I gave you. Should be simple enough to fix in about 3 days if you double up doses for a week.

  4. Soreness is an inefficient way of seeing whether or not you got a good workout, so don't assume if you aren't sore that your workout was no good.  

    Your workout was good if you used proper form, used a heavy weight that you could only lift 4-8 times per set, and if the last few reps for each set were very difficult and tough to complete.

    The post-workout meal you listed was good (I'm assuming that is immediately after your workout).  Make sure you eat a large meal 1 hour after your workout too, it should be your highest-calorie meal of the day, that is when your muscles need it most.

    It is ok to workout your chest, triceps, and shoulders tomorrow, I usually do 2 muscle groups in a workout session, but 3 is fine.  I would recommend you first workout chest, then shoulders, then triceps.

    Best of luck!
