how normal is it to have you muscles ache/hurt the next day after doing some weights? did some yesterday (a lot with a small weight, not big weights). i dont normally ache so much, and its only my left bicep.
i would expect your arms to feel a bit tight or something maybe. is it just cos i maybe did too many?
for the record, i never do it 2 days in a row, i try and do 3 times a week, but usually its twice.
if i keep my arm bent its ok, but it then hurts to extend it.
is it better to keep stretching it if there is pain to stop it seizing up so much, or to keep it still?
thanks

What sort of training are you doing because if you start at too high an intensity the body will be overloaded too much and wont develop effectively?
Aching after exercise is definately not a good thing!
