Muscle burning

One of the phenomena that often occurs in bodybuilders is muscle inflammation. Some also call this phenomenon muscle fatigue.

Muscle inflammation is manifested by pain in the muscles that are noticed - felt a few hours after the cessation of training or usually the next day. Muscle pain is observed especially during movements and when touching or pressing. After the warm-up and preliminary preparation for training, the pain decreases and in most cases completely stops and does not hinder the training that follows. Usually, this phenomenon - muscle inflammation appears at the beginning of training, and it is more manifested in individuals who have not had any prior physical activity, then in athletes who continue training with a higher intensity after a longer interruption of exercise.

Muscle inflammation can also occur in athletes who are in full sports form, especially when in their training program they frame or include other types of exercises that engage other muscle groups or in this case the muscles are hit and stimulated from the other angle. then during the sudden increase in the weight with which the exercise is performed, the number of series or repetitions, or when the active exerciser simultaneously starts to engage in some other complementary sport which otherwise engages and stimulates the muscles. Regardless of what will be the reason for the appearance of muscle inflammation, training should not be stopped completely. If muscle fatigue or their burning is felt in most muscle groups, while the burning intensity is not high (the degree and intensity of muscle burning must be realistically assessed by the individual), then it is preferable to continue the training with enough intensity low and training exercises involve the engagement of almost all muscle groups.

If the inflammation appears in one or two muscle groups, for example chest and biceps, then the training can be continued (of course, if the inflammation is of low intensity) after warming up and preparing the muscles in advance by exercising other muscle groups that are able to develop without obstacles, not engaging muscle groups that feel the burning. In our example, in this case, training dedicated to the muscles of the legs and abdomen can be developed. In order for the muscle inflammation to stop as soon as possible, the exerciser should heat up the muscles as much as possible in general, wash the body with hot water and massage the muscles.

Those who enter the gym for the first time and on the first day make a greater commitment and load on the muscles, can rarely avoid muscle inflammation, however this phenomenon should not worry them at all even though in practice we encounter cases of serious concern, of course unreasonable, because this phenomenon - muscle activation is only a type of manifestation of muscle work and engagement, which proves very little or insufficient prior activity and in most cases total inactivity. Exercisers who have been involved in bodybuilding for a long time without interruption appreciate the occasional early appearance of muscle soreness or pain and characterize it as positive, affirming that the preliminary training was targeted, successful and productive. In the framework of this finding, positive assessments can be found, however, we can only partially agree with this finding.

One of the main prerequisites for preventing and avoiding inflammation and muscle pain is the comprehensive warm-up and preparation of the muscles for training as well as the adaptation of the exercises, the weight with which the exercise is performed, the number of series, the repetitions within the series and the all the general intensity, and especially its adaptation to real, momentary and individual opportunities. Since every time a muscle flare-up occurs, regardless of the degree and intensity, it should be known that during the entire time this lasts, the muscles are not elastic enough, therefore there is a much greater possibility of eventual muscle injury. /Telegraph/
