On Friday, I was just way sore from doing deadlifts on one day and squats the day after. I think I get D.O.M.S (delayed muscle onset soreness) a little later so surprisingly doing my workouts on this split was totally perfect. I know muscle soreness means that "I'm making gainz" but it's not pleasant when walking around; I feel that I walk around stiffly like a robot. SO, I searched up on how to treat D.O.M.S. or make it go away more quickly. Intake more protein - helps with muscle synthesis and accelerates the healing of muscle fibers Foam rolling afterwards - promotes blood flow especially to the area of injury/muscle tears/inflammation I think these two "treatments" may have sped up my recovery!

Originally, I planned to workout Saturday morning since I allowed myself a rest day on Friday, however, I think my body needed the rest... slept 12 hours on and off. How you do dat?  :O This is the brand...

Furthermore, since I worked out on and off throughout this week, my shower schedule was off and adding onto the mismanagement of my time I slept a tremendous amount. Zzzzz I wish I could carry over the excess hours I sleep. I saw this fact somewhere and thinking about the amount of time we spend sleeping fascinated me. 25 years if you sleep 8 hours on average. haha wow. So if you're 75 years old, you only really have 50 years of life experience :P, since 25 years were spent sleeping like Sleeping Beauty. so.. although I have been working out throughout the week but not as diligently as I would've liked, I'll call today's post Day 8 of workouts I am still penguin waddling around from two days ago when I did 10x10 volume training on squats. woo! Although I had a great squat session, I was pretty irrit...
