Sore muscles

Now that I am doing regular weight training I am facing very sore muscles. Yesterday I could barely walk because my Hamstrings are so sore.

I have done some research on the internet and there seem to be really only two things that are supposed to help:

1. Magnesium
2. Warmth

The Magnesium I have already tried. I bought some of these liquid Magnesium tubes that you can get in any store that has fitness equipment or fitness supplements. Unfortunately this does not seem to help. At least for me. I still have a little soreness the first day after training and even more the next day. Today is already the third day and my Hamstrings still hurt. Which is awkward. I think I definitely hit my 10 during the weight training if it hurts that much.

I have yet still to try the warmth. Many articles recommend a warm bath to increase the blood flow in the muscles which will help to "heal" the muscle faster. It does sound logical to me but I have not yet felt like taking a bath. Like I never do during summer. I might try just to take a hot shower and concentrate the warm water especially on the area that hurts. I have done my upper body weight training yesterday and still feel good. If these muscles also start to be sore I am really getting into trouble. I hope until then I can walk properly again.

Let me know if you have any tips or tricks that you've tried and that worked for you.

Wish you a nice weekend and much success with your own fitness journey.
