k so I’m an admittedly fairly weak person. not a lot of muscle on these bones, but trying to improve it.

while I keep healthy in other ways (10k steps every day, usually with a run thrown in) getting into like basic weight shit has completely destroyed me. I did a leg routine for beginners I found online and I couldn’t sit down easily for several days. later, even doing very, very basic lifts with no weight, like just the bar, left me sore for fucking days.

so, 1) will this stop, and 2) is there something I’m doing wrong? I have a good diet Supplemented with a multivitamin, and I drink a shitton of water every day. Help!

    Normal for starting out, yes it gets better. You’ll always be a little sore the day after lifting, but it’s much worse and longer lasting the first few times.
