So I have been lifting for a few years and I have always noticed that any muscle soreness Im going to feel, Im going to feel it 18-24 hours after the workout... sometimes if I lift REAL heavy Ill start feeling it a little earlier.
So, I have been lifting heavy chest and back for about 15 months, twice a week (since september).
I had no back before so over the summer I started REALLLYY light, 10-12 lb dumbell rows and 25 lb barbell rows.. just to give me some strength to life the heavier wiehgts so I could gain muscle. I have worked up fairly well since the heavy weights in september.
I have never really felt any soreness or tightness or tensions in my back before.
However, I have noticed the mast few weeks that I am feeling a little soreness or tightness -- about two or three days AFTER the workout.
Im wondeirng if this is normal or if it could be form something else (like the bi/tri or shoulder workout in the days that follow?
Also, I have alwyas used some amount of soreness when I drastically switch a routine or went heavier as a measure of success (like passing a milestone-- so I know the workouts are working)-- but I have neverreally felt ANYTHING in my back.. and I have felt something with every other muscle group at some point or another.
Is tis normal?
What are your routines for back-- particularily when you were lifting heavy looking for strength and mass?
I feel i am doing REAL well considering when I really first started building my back in the past few months-- but Im not Cathe yet so I have more to do
Do you alternate weeks/days/months with heavy weights and fewer reps or do you do mostly heavy for a while?
I know it's such a huge muscle and I know I have a hard time isolating it.
For example I have a hard time doing double arm DB rowws and the pullovers (they ar einpossible-- I don;t feel it ANYWHERE's)
Any tips would be great!!
