Well, GS series for sure, especially when I push it hard. MIS does the trick as well. I'm still recovering from that on Tues.

Becky, I don't get DOMS either and I either match Cathe's weight or go higher. On a rare occasion I will. I don't think it's "bad", but I am curious as to why I don't get it since I'm working my muscles to exhaustion every time.
Anyone have any input on this?
Thanks, Melissa

Melissa,
If you are working hard during the workout and seeing results, I actually thing NOT having DOMS is a good thing. It means your body is recoveriing quickly. Maybe because you eat a high-alkaline diet (that helps neutralize acids produced by working out) or eat a lot of antioxidant-rich foods, or just naturally recover faster (Lance Armstrong supposedly doesn't get the lactic acid build up other athletes do, or at least his body gets rid of it quickly, according to a FitTV show).

Kathryn, that is fascinating. I can't believe all the knowledge you have about fitness.

Stretching definitely seems to reduce DOMS, as does sufficient recovery between sets. I get a more DOMS from endurance workouts like PH than I do from workouts like Slow and Heavy (which rarely gives me DOMS).
And even after hitting failure on the push-ups in CTX Intervals, and having the shakey shakey chihuahua legs from the last set of lunges on Leaner Legs, I didn't get any DOMS from them.
I'm also taking some anti-inflammatory supplements (called Blue Mangosteen, a whole-food-based supplement of blue-green Klamath lake algae and mangosteen powder) and that may help as well.
Also, whenever you change up workouts by doing something new (or increasing the weight used), you'll be more apt to get DOMS.

This is what I find to be the case. When I change my workouts a lot, I get more DOMS -- esp. if the workouts are signficantly varied. When I do any workout frequently (even the most challenging ones), I stop gettings DOMS.

PLB gives me DOMS in my hamstrings like no other lower body workout. The floor work alone gives me minor DOMS. The entire workout gives me major DOMS. I rediscovered Core Max this week. I did the CM segment that uses the stability ball and it was not too difficult during the workout, but I had DOMS into Wednesday night and I don't usually get DOMS in the ab/core region (probably b/c I don't like to work this area and don't work it enoughx( ).

Kickmax leg drills gives me major DOMS in the glutes and hamstrings. That's the only work out that I consistently get DOMS with. For all the other workouts, it's a hit or miss. Sometimes I get them, sometimes I don't. I try to work to exhaustion every time. I'm not always as successful as I'd like, but I use my note book and work harder the next time.
I do try to get in at least 20 min of cardio after a really hard weight workout though. That seems to help me alot.

Delayed-Onset Muscle Soreness (the soreness that hits you about 24-48 hours after a workouts, usually when doing a new type of workout or going up in weight).

Gym Style Chest and Triceps always gives me DOMS. It can be up to 4 days for the chest especially as I can now do all of the push ups with straight legs.
Pyramids upper body gives me bicep doms.
High Step Advanced gives me DOMS in the triceps (especially when I manage to do all of the one armed tricep dips).
