Today was my second workout in 3 days with protein shakes (pre and post), BCAA, and glutamine. I think they def take the edge off my DOMS but nowhere near 100% nor 50% either — just the edge, making everything way more bearable. Also I really don't feel as wiped out. 

Oh! Gotcha! Right. So I get DOMS every time because I do a muscle group once a week. There we go! Solved.

yes I think so ..but it seems I'm wrong re DOMS and gains, and you can get gains w/o DOMS and https://breakingmuscle.com/fitness/doms-the-good-the-bad-and-what-it-really-means-to-your-training … oh well. What I do know is that training often & changing regimes + nutrition is crucial.

That is what I thought. The research seems to suggest gains and DOMS are not related in any straightforward way if at all.

Many people have DOMSplained to me. Haha.https://twitter.com/o_guest/status/962279108913836032 …

Oops sorry.I think I might have been one of those people. It's way more complicated than I realised. sounds like you're finding things that help somewhat, which is great. Hope it goes away completely soon! Also thanks for posting about exercise in general, it's very motivating!
-
Oh, please, apology accepted. I was being 99% facetious.
Also glad to hear it's motivating.
When the weather is warmer I'll post more photos of my muscles, haha. -
Yeah definitely! The chats about exercise motivated me to go out for a run for the first time in months! I remembered how much I loved it. But going out there was the hardest bit. I hope to continue and not come up with excuses!
-
Yeah, starting is tough. To be honest, I motivate myself to go to the gym because it makes me happy so it's a benign cycle. But like you say, it's tough to get into the cycle.
-
Yeah it is tough to get motivated!
