    Question about being sore the day after a workout

    I skimmed through an article recently and cant find it but it was about being sore after your workout..

    my friend said I wasn't training enough unless I wake up the next morning with my muscles aching, I disagreed with barely any information to back me up

    so anyone willing to clarify this issue, it would be greatly appreciated

    thanks guys

    being sore is not an indicator of a productive workout. do a search, we have tons of threads about all the theories and such on soreness.

    Use progression as the gauge for a successful workout, not soreness.

    around once every other week, I made it my goal to get one bodypart really sore, sort of a shock technique.
