Doctors told how to understand that workout is not going to benefit.
Delayed onset muscle soreness after a workout is natural: it means that your muscles grow and become stronger. But some types of pain can signal an injury, doing physical activities potentially dangerous to health. Please note the following your body’s signals, to avoid problems in the future.
YOUR MUSCLES ARE TREMBLING
Easy muscle tremors after exercise – not a reason for concern. But if your hands and feet starts to shake with a magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter scale, it says the hypertonicity of the muscles, and exercise have to stop. First, you run the serious risk of fall, getting off the treadmill or trying to lift the barbell. Second, fatigue will not allow you to correctly calculate the load and you can get a sprain or muscle rupture.
IN THE BACK, KNEES OR SHOULDERS SHOOTS DURING EXERCISE
The pain associated with a certain type of movement can be a symptom of the pathology of the musculoskeletal system. If the pain is acute, specialist in Orthopaedics necessarily have to examine you. If the pain is mild, perhaps you were ill prepared for intensive physical activity. Next time spend more time warming up and stretching, RUB the muscles before exercise. You may need to reduce the load, reduce weight, slow the pace. The main thing now – not to ignore the discomfort and to consult with the coach.
THE MUSCLE PAIN PERSISTS FOR MORE THAN 3 DAYS
Since the workout it’s been three days and you still hurt to climb stairs? This means that you overestimated your physical capabilities and exceeded the plan: delayed onset muscle soreness should not last more than 48 hours. Now you have to wait until acute muscle pain persists, and only then to go back to the gym. If you ignore pain and push yourself, it can lead to a serious sports injury.
AFTER JOGGING IS YOUR LEG SWOLLEN
Swelling and pain in the legs after running can be a symptom of muscle tension. Maybe in the next days you will have to limit physical activity, and before the next run to spend more time warming up and stretching. But if the foot continues to hurt, you should consult a physical therapist. The doctor will help you to strengthen the problem area and to protect your feet against potential injury.
YOU HAVE EXPERIENCED SUDDEN SHARP PAIN
Sharp pain during exercise can be a symptom of a rupture of muscles or ligaments, myopathy or myositis, joint damage and many other dangerous conditions. Do not attempt to continue the classes, otherwise a trip to the gym will end in the office of an orthopedic surgeon. The best option would be to contact the coach who will check the limbs for the presence of swelling or redness.
