[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Two days a week isn't enough---aim for at least three, ideally four. Getting your body moving again will help with soreness, as will NSAIDS if you're really uncomfortable. It's normal to be sore when you are first starting out, and over time that will improve.[/quote] Two days is perfectly fine for weight training for the average person. There is research on this - the results are not dose-dependent for strength training. That is, four times a week is not twice as good as two times a week. OP’s extreme soreness is not likely something she should just push through. Better to recover and do cross-training on the other days. [/quote]
