Most will subside after 1-2. • Stretching – Stretching is just a good general policy already, and although the research doesn’t support it as a valid treatment for DOMS, stretching might at least make you feel better. • Massage – It might not improve the function of DOMS-impaired muscles, but it does relieve the feeling. • Epsom Salt or Ice Baths – Though there’s no clinical support, some people report an ice bath and Epsom salt baths after a workout helps reduce incidence of DOMS. • Anti-Inflammatories – Try ibuprofen or a chemical equivalent. Better yet, double up on your Omega-3s. They might reduce the pain, but – like with massage – your strength will still be impaired. • Exercise – Warming up before your workout is always a good idea. Afterward, beset by DOMS, light exercise can “train” your body to work through the pain. Don’t work through any particularly severe DOMS, but it’s safe to get back on the wagon on the tail end of the soreness. Eventually, you should stop getting it altogether. • Be proactive and utilize L-Glutamine, a natural muscle shield that helps with recovery. It is the ingredient in our recommended pre-workout drink, Spark. Its also in our meal replacement shakes which are packed with muscle recovering protein.
