First off, I'd like to say I'm sorry. When I first started writing this blog, I was already a couple years into heavy lifting. So here I am recommending rack pulls, good mornings, pause squats and the like to probably a bunch of newbies.
When you first stumbled upon this blog, you probably did a couple bench presses maybe even a couple leg presses on a machine. That's how I first started out. Probably after you were done with one of my workouts, you're body was most likely like a burnt piece of chicken. All brittle and sore.
After going back to my workout today after not having worked out for about four months, I can honestly say I can feel your pain. Now I know how you must've felt after doing your first workout day. My legs especially around the quadricep and glutes area are on fire. I can't even squat to sit down without extreme soreness. The rack pulls I did today got my shoulders in a terrible soreness as well, and while I was doing them, it felt like my spine was going to snap in half. I probably won't even be able to walk tomorrow.
But alas this is the best pain a person can experience because I know I'm going to acquire strength rapidly, also known as beginner gains. When you first started you were sore but you got strong quick. That's exactly the effect I'm looking for. So what if I'm in pain.
