Do you have muscle fever after training? Be happy, it moves you forward

Each of us who has ever exercised knows what muscle fever is. Pain in the legs, arms, calves, biceps, triceps, ... depending on which parts of the body you practiced. Although it can make the day uncomfortable, it is essential when doing sports.

If you're just getting started, be prepared to have muscle fevers at the beginning of your long-term efforts. And it's good. In your body, after training, so-called microcracks form in the muscles, which are the result of straining the muscle parts. These are minor damage to the muscle fibres that show up in pain about a day or two after exercise.


Stretched muscles (or limits of possible?)

If you are supported in physical performance by a coach, he or she will try to exceed your limits every time. What does it mean? That first month you will be running XY miles, lifting XY-kilo dumbbells or you will want to lose weight in a particular number. In order to achieve this, you need to give every day, week, month a little better than the previous one. The muscle fever will accompany your shift. You have to come to terms with this fact.

However, you do not have to accept that the muscle pain will still be the same. So, it's more or less up to you.


Muscle fever is also suffered by professionals...

Even professional athletes have muscle fever after training. And they've been training for years. But they are still trying new exercises, pushing the boundaries, setting higher and higher goals.

Things to keep in mind - when drawing up a training plan, you need to consult an expert so that you do not overdo it. He or she will tell you if you have real or unrealistic expectations. You can be sure that if your pounds go down more slowly, in addition to a smaller ready-to-wear size and better health, you will also acquire habits for a healthy lifestyle. You will keep them for the rest of your life.


What helps

Of course, there are many tips for overcoming muscles after exercise. These are the most common:


  • Activity, not rest - Fight fire with fire. However, in the case of muscle, it is better to choose an exercise other than the one you received it from. So, if you are sick of muscle fever today, choose light aerobic exercise as a harmonizing movement. It is important that you take it lightly and stretch out to prevent it.
  • Enough minerals - supplementation of minerals such as magnesium or calcium can prevent muscle relaxation. 
  • Cold shower - the blood vessels contract and then widen, which relaxes the muscles neatly.
  • Ointment with active ingredients - ask your partner for a massage to bleed sore parts of the body. Ointments from comfrey or horse ointment can be considered medicinal ointments.
  • Regeneration supplements - amino acids or inosine, are effective in relieving muscle fever, which you can learn more about on our website. You will not find preservatives and emulsifiers in its composition, which is the main quality of the Natural Nutrition brand.
