eli5 After exercise, why are different muscle groups sore on different days?

154 views

As an example, I went to the gym on Monday to train my lower body.
Tuesday I experienced muscle soreness in my glutes.
Wednesday the glutes felt much better but my calves were stiff.

Why is there a delay in different muscles? I’m sure I worked all the muscles equally hard.
