What are the causes of muscle soreness during exercise?

Many friends who don’t exercise much will have severe muscle soreness the next day after suddenly engaging in strenuous exercise. Of course, there are many other reasons. We need to pay special attention to these reasons, otherwise the impact on our body will be very great. So, what are the reasons for muscle soreness during exercise? Let’s take a brief look at it!

Generally, this kind of muscle soreness after exercise is due to the large amount of lactic acid produced during the training process. When the lactic acid produced by the human body during exercise is greater than the lactic acid consumed by the body itself, the lactic acid will hinder blood circulation and eventually cause muscle soreness.

However, the lactic acid produced by exercise is a normal phenomenon and only gives people a feeling of soreness. Generally, it will disappear automatically in about 5 days if you don't continue exercising. If you continue to exercise, the pain will go away in 2 to 3 days. This is what we will talk about below: Should you still exercise if you feel muscle soreness after exercise?

Secondly, let’s answer whether you can still exercise if you have muscle soreness after exercise. When the whole body is sore, especially in the parts that have been trained, it is recommended that the practitioner do not exercise the trained parts again. The main reason is to give the muscles that have been exercised a rest, because muscle growth requires rest and recovery.

Enjoying the muscle soreness after exercise is easy. It means letting the lactic acid produced in the body disappear automatically, so you can just rest after exercise. In fact, as mentioned at the beginning of the article, it will generally disappear automatically in about 5 days.

Long-term aerobic exercise is beneficial to the automatic decomposition of lactic acid produced in the body and the generation of energy, thereby reducing the accumulation of lactic acid in the body and eliminating and relieving muscle soreness after exercise.

The above is some introduction about the causes of muscle soreness. Generally, it is mainly related to the fact that you don’t exercise much in your daily life. So when you have nothing to do, you can exercise. Regular exercise can avoid muscle soreness and can also achieve good fitness results!
