Reply With Quotei suggest researching both pre and post workout nutrition. imo, proper nutrition at these key times will be more effective than any supplement u can take.

Once you look at all that stuff he talked about.... Protein shakes, and Glutamine, you're in the wrong forum though
Edit: Also proper rest is very keyLast edited by TriZZle305; 05-29-2005 at 09:25 PM. Reason: adding

Just rest. Eventually you won't get very sore from your workouts.
Push yourself. Enjoy yourself. Be yourself.

If you just started going to the gym IMO you shouldn't expect to be doing a full routine. It takes me 5-6 weeks after a layoff, to work up to a full routine.
Otherwise I'd be immobilized from overworking my untrained body.Motivation Bench form Charles Poliquin When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. Lao-Tzu

Well thank you al for the tips.Yes today iw ent to they gym and just worked arms and chest since iw asnt sore inthose places...and did 45 minutes on tredmill.I didnt know i could do 45 minutes but it was awsome cardio.Well anyway just so i have this strait these are what i should be doing to prevent soreness or atleast minimise it.
1- REST
2- Proper nutrition/diet
3- Take my time till I work up to "full potential"
Only a couple questions
1- what is considered a good nutrition for pre/post workout?
2- Now I probably was pushing to hard but starting monday i will be doing the HST 10 rep routine and on "off" days (tues. and thurs.) ill be doing cardio. So should I go REAL easy or still push but just not over do it?
Thank you all again for the help

Pre: I'd just make sure I have something in my stomach that's not too heavy. If you want, you can drink something like Gatorade to refuel your electrolytes during the workout, but water is what I drink.
Post: Lots and lots of protein.
I'm sure someone else will have a better answer for pre.Push yourself. Enjoy yourself. Be yourself.

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) is going to be present no matter what supplements, diet, etc are being utilized if you just started lifting 2 days ago. You should not be working out hard, especially just beginning. Personally, I would stop lifting now until the soreness goes away, that could be a week (was for me when I started), and then start again SLOWLY, using a well-structure periodization program. Take advantage of your newbie gains and progressively increase overload over 2-4 weeks until you work up to your maxes. Since you just started lifting, benching 20 pound dumbbells are going to overload the correlated muscle fibers enough for hypertrophy (growth), and stretching out the potential of your newbie gains will be very good in the long run.
The more your sweat in training, the less you bleed in battle.
