Yes, we have no DOMS

Last week, the day after I returned from the conference I jumped back into my training. I guess 60 squats and 120 steps-ups were a bit much after sitting motionless for a week. By Tuesday morning just stepping off the curb was so painful my inflamed quad would momentarily go limp threatening to send me face-first into traffic so I wussed out and skipped Tuesday TKD (with Instructor Cutie-Pie, no less).

ANYWAY - no DOMS today after Monday's workout! Maybe because I drank my recovery shake, maybe the magic BCAA and glutamine, maybe because I am a wimp and took some weight off the squats and a few reps off the step-ups. Probably the last one.
