TRX Day

The last time I did mountain climbers with the TRX (among other things), I couldn't really walk for a couple of days.

I love my TRX.

Glad to hear that you enjoyed your TRX day Veronica! I've been working out with a set now for a little over three months, definitely a great way to get in a good workout in regardless of where people work out!

I love TRX days, though sometimes my cranky knee gets, well, cranky with it.

I think my trainer has been anxious to use TRX with me again, after the amount of soreness I suffered after our last workout with it. In all my years of physical activity, I have never had the degree of delayed onset muscle soreness that I often encounter now. I've wondered if my thyroid issues--I know that Graves' Disease can cause muscle fatigue, weakness and soreness--is a contributing factor. I've started to take a supplement recommended for GD that can help with these muscular issues. We'll see if it helps.

I wish that I could remember if I had this problem back in my GD days, but I wasn't active then and was much younger. I am sure you are hydrating enough before, during and after? For me this will determine if I get sore at all - then again my body doesn't normally "talk" to me in this way (which is one of the reasons I've had problems with over-use injuries) so my experience may be unusual. I hope your supplement works and this improves!

I don't think I'm dehydrated per se, but I could probably stand to to drink more. And if this was just minor soreness, I'd attribute it to something like that, but there have been a few instances where I could barely move for several days after a workout with my trainer. Granted, I'm worked muscles in novel ways with him at times, but even with that, the soreness seems extreme. Maybe I'm just way more out of shape than I realize. That is a distinct possibility.
