Question about being sore the day after a workout

[Andy_Massaro]

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.

haha well even if u feel like a parrot, youre a helpful one
but thanks again man, I was pretty sure that the whole soreness thing really didnt have anything to do with a productive workout so yeah thanks again

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