However the only way to prevent soreness is decreasing intensity of the workout. Soreness isnt a bad thing though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403372 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 12:02:48 +0000 yoursilverlining 1403372@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aleeve :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403363 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 12:00:21 +0000 sandy 1403363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrbee: my husband swears by protein shakes and eating super high protein meals after an intense workout. The way he explained it is if you lift super hard your muscles are rebuilding/regenerating and consuming protein speeds up that process so you aren't as sore the next day </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403324 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:49:46 +0000 chopsuey 1403324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just stretch and drink lots of water! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403318 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:48:45 +0000 psw27 1403318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never would have tried it @mrbee but they were giving it away after a half marathon and it tasted surprisingly delicious and made me feel awesome. I don't typically drink milk otherwise! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403306 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:47:10 +0000 mrbee 1403306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@psw27: Chocolate milk huh! Wow never considered that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403300 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:46:27 +0000 psw27 1403300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>chocolate milk! Seriously... it has a great balance of proteins and sugars and helps me recover from long runs. Pre-pregnancy, I immediately took an anti-inflammatory and stretched. Oh and the foam roller of doom too... hurts so good. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403275 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:41:16 +0000 mrsjyw 1403275@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same! I spend the last 10+ of each workout stretching, lots of water, and a hot shower or bath! </p> <p>I also try not to overwork out too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-avoid-getting-sore-after-a-really-intense-workout#post-1403272 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 11:40:28 +0000 mrbee 1403272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually stretch, drink lots of water and try not to overdo it. Maybe also take a really hot shower, and then a cold one or use some ice.</p> <p>How do you avoid getting sore after a really intense workout? </p>
