Muscle atrophy starts already 72h post training.. it’s a fight you can’t win if you work long hours/ travel often etc.

I meant more for avoiding DOMS, but yeah, I realise that 4 times a week might be hard to keep up with.

What I meant is that the two are linked, the more often you workout a given muscle group the less DOMS you get- but then if muscles get used to a given type of training, both DOMS and gains go down.

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.

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.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

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.
