So been being more cautious about my health since I’m in my late twenties and decided to try to exercise some more. Starting out with 25 pushups and 10 burpees (probably not a lot but I felt winded) and after the exercise I felt fine. Then the next day it starts to hurt like something smart. Why though? Shouldn’t the muscles be rested after that point?
In: Biology
Because you are putting tiny little tears in the muscle tissue. When it heals it scabs over a little tiny bit bigger. That’s how you build muscle tearing and scabbing over and it can take a couple days if you’re new to it or worked out very hard.
It’ll become less and less and stop lasting as long with time (as long as you are using correct form).
It means you did good. Keep it up.
Edit: just a tip. Now that you started these next 6 months are the most important of your work out life. This is the time to get the most gains. So stick to it.
