Lat T Bar Question

[getlean09]

Ok I was all fired up to go to the gym at least 4 days this week. I threw in some lat bar routines on Tues. It went well but Wed. and Thurs. My Back, Shoulders are sore as hell. I did 3 sets closed lat at 80lbs 10-15 reps, and 100lbs open lat 10-15 sets. Man my back is sore I havent been back to the gym since Tuesday. Was going to go today but couldnt get motivated. When will the soreness go away? I have taken 2 days off now hoping I will be back Tomorrow(Fri). Any Ideas??? I been taking advil to hopefully get rid of the soreness... This was on a Lat Pull Down Machine....

Its just DOMS, and it will go away. Just ride through it, unless you feel like an injury is coming on, rather than just a an overall soreness.

Don't sweat it, it just means you worked hard.

Yeah Im beginning to think I wont need that much working out on my back. I will do all the right training for it, squats, rows, lats, whatever just like 1 day a week for back I guess, how often do you workout your back??? Oh your goob too? LOL... Thanks for the help in advance

me personaly i work my back twice a week. one day for developement of smaller muscle groups, one day for balls out heavy lifts. not sure how long you have been training or what you have been doing. if you have been out for a while it may take some time for your body to adjust to the new loads/workouts. all things come with time. as i think gazhole said in another thread its a marathon not a race. just give it time dont get discouraged.

no pain no gain, unless it is injury related pain

"Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness" = DOMS.

Either that are or a wise cracking metrosexual.....
