Yeah, I don't envy anybody that gets sore like this in multiple areas and regularly, I hope there's some tricep growth from all thisCaptainAwesome wrote: ↑Mon Nov 07, 2022 5:28 pmSee?

Re: DOMS, why don't I get it?
I think the loading at a stretched position really contributes. I've been doing cable hip abduction from a maximally stretched position, influenced by an SBS article, and the DOMS is ridiculous.

Hadn’t heard of him. Video titles at his youtube have the clickbaity-est titles ever, but that was really entertaining. I’ll probably end up watching half of them between sets tomorrow.

Re: DOMS, why don't I get it?
I agree, I avoided watching any of his stuff for quite a while because of the titles title shots, but I have found him to be actually entertaining and conveying useful information. I don't always agree totally with him, but if we agreed on everything then only one of us would be necessary.
