This episode was inspired by none other than the 100% Wild monkii Kim. She actually asked 3 questions all related to DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness). Here's what she asked:
This question has come up for me many times over the years. I'm a bit of a workout masochist. I enjoy DOMS the next day because it makes me feel like I accomplished something, that my workout was challenging enough. Is DOMS proof of anything? Is a workout less effective if you don't feel it the next day? Is it unhealthy to workout to the point you experience DOMS on a regular basis? I tend to feel like I did something wrong if I can't feel anything the next day. I'm talking a more basic soreness that lasts a day or so. Not the type where you wonder if it's worth investing in a stair chair because it hurts too much to walk and takes a week to recover from it, heh.
Great question! We respect your long-standing dedication to Wildness and pushing your boundaries.
