      Let’s get real. There’s some good info here (perception being one item) but some misses as well (it’s most likely trauma and doesn’t always take 24-48 hours TO PERCEIVE, the inflammatory process is immediate). Here’s the real answers:
      The root of DOMS is due to “excessive” (insufficient adaptation) to eccentric loading that can cause micro trauma due to structural damage (membrane, myofibrillar) and the activation of proteases, prostaglandins, and histamine production which follow. This may not manifest as the perception of soreness (pain) for a few hours. DOES NOT REQUIRE 24-48 hours to perceive! Ever workout in the evening and wake up sore? The problem these guys are having is thinking this process STARTS between 24-48 hours, when we are talking about pain perception. However, again DOMS can be perceived (soreness) within only a few hours!!! The miss here is not connecting that DOMS may not resolve for a couple days and that is highly dependent on what’s called the “repeated bout effect”, essentially neural and muscular adaptations that minimize damage/promote recovery. By the way, I’m a also a Kinesiology professor and have been teaching Exercise physiology for over 12 years.

      @@MrHaggyy it depends. Resistance trained individuals also have a much higher resistance to DOMS. If you did an entirely different movement and/or changed the tempo you might experience DOMS (the perception of soreness). It goes without saying, if you are untrained, then the response will be greater.

    Lemme try to summarize:
    2:50 traditional dogma - muscle micro tears (probably NOT the main cause)
    3:57 delayed inflammatory immune response
    4:56 fluid accumulation which triggers nociceptors (pressure sensors)
    5:43 neural feedback loop (mixing of different nerve signals from and into muscle fibers)
    9:55 pressure sensors triggered by stretched muscles interpreted as pain in the brain rather than pressure in the muscle spindles
    10:35 low level movement better to relieve muscle pains (anti-stretch, drains fluid)
    12:07 free radicals from muscle metabolism (he's not too sure, still a theory, may be the trigger for all these)
    13:44 damage to cell walls which promotes free radical leakage usually due to high intensity muscle work rather than cardio/low intensity (which may actually help in recovery, see 10:35)

    I worked in exercise physiology, and consulted on research for 30 years. My opinion has been for about a decade that muscle soreness is the result of lymphatic vessels stretching as lymphatic waste is worked out of a muscle in the immune response to resistance training. Muscle get sore relative to the amount of lymphatic vessels that drain them, and things that promote lymphatic drainage reduce soreness. It also suggests the use of light workouts/sled work between workouts to accelerate the recovery and why complete inactivity in days after training slows down recovery.

    • @mertonhirsch4734
      @mertonhirsch4734 Před 8 měsíci

      @@zachdancy5828 No. Ice and NSAIDs actually block the normal lymphatic drainage and slow things down. NSAIDs by the way also block prostaglandin which is important for the hypertrophy response.
      Hot water, heat, massage, light calisthenics. Training 6 days a week though you are probably in effect using workouts to help restore muscles you worked in earlier days. So if you do a chest workout one day, and then train your back 1-2 days later with some pulldowns or pullovers you are probably helping to restore your chest. If you only do your legs once a week though, you might want to do something restorative for the legs 2-3 days later like pushing and pulling a light sled.

    When he said stretching is the opposite thing you should do to reduce soreness and using low grade movement I immediately thought of Westside Barbell and their use for years of doing sled work for recovery. Because it’s only a contraction and no loaded eccentric movement involved it seems like the perfect solution. Do sled presses, rows, loaded dragging, sled fly and reverse fly movements.

    Personally I think a lot of this comes down to how we define "Soreness". So.. I had a Fusion about a decade ago now, and sometimes when it Aches I might say to someone "Bah my back is Sore" then give it a rest for a minute. However this is not the same sensation as say if I went to the gym and did a bunch of Bicep Exercises then the next morning felt the "Soreness" in my Bicep. While both sensations could be described as "Soreness" they are not the same. So I think a lot of that boils down to our descriptor of the Sensation and a individuals perception of their body and how they articulate that to others. Chances are if your Muscle Belie feels sore, you tore Muscle Fibers. If it's extremely sore your tore them badly. If you can barely move the muscle without sharp pain, you probably made a significant tear that will leave scar tissue.

    Love it “ cell wall” when your describing animal cells . Hope that was a slip. However, joking apart some interesting points. What also MUST be considered is mechanical effects of cellular oedema on tendoni sensory fibres as this is where DOMS is mainly felt near muscle insertion points. Also why we get a lower immune response / reduced pain sensation as training progression ( time training/ years) continues.

    There are some aspects of this explanation that make a lot of sense, but then like all things it should be testable. If it is truly immune inflammation putting internal pressure on spindle cells, then some experiments could be validating. You should be able to measure that pressure with more pressure equal to more DOMs; visible resting tension and swelling in the muscle should also equate to more DOMs. Likewise you should experience less DOMs the lower the measured pressure. A muscle fully at rest but in a position it would be if fully contracted, completely slack, should feel less pain or no DOMs as pressure should be relieved.

  • @MrHaggyy
    @MrHaggyy Před 7 měsíci +2

    Thats really interesting if you compare endurance vs strength soreness. The most pain i know is when switching between both extremes. For example heavy squads and jogging. From your explanation and my perception there are multiple sources for "soreness". When i go running the soreness kicks in quite immediatly after i'm 2h into it or after the start when the run is shorter. I would say thats an immediate response to wear caused by all those steps.
    Strength training kicks in 24h delayed. Makes sense that it's linked to buildup and recovery processes and getting rid of liquid, mostly water, that is a byproduct of almost any organic chemistry.
    I think soreness despite it's linkage to pain is a perceptional mechanism of our body to prevent injury. It prevents you from doing excessive exercises while the muscle is still recovering and favors light exercise that is primarly circulating liquids, not working the muscles.
    Would love to hear your thoughts on that.

      idk, I've had running soreness that came immediately, came 2-3 days later, and came the next day. I've also had strength stuff that showed up immediately, showed up 2-4 days later, and the next day. the only thing I've noticed between the two (I run marathons and I lift weights) is that I can have a hard strength workout stay with me for as much as a week, whereas the worst soreness I've had from a run has only lasted 4 days at the most. I can't even really hazard a guess as to why this is because I'm not a scientist or a doctor.

      Only idea i have right now is that you hit muscles that are still recovering from an intense strength session with an intense endurance session or the other way around. That way you get closer and closer to a propper injury in the muscle that holds for much longer.

    Microscopic morphologic studies are easy enough to do on the skeletal muscle. In an appropriately applied exercise program/movement no damage to the functional unit of the muscle has been found. Scarring is the bodies normal response to muscle tissue damage not improved function with hypertrophy. If tearing or damage were the etiology of muscle damage from correct exercise the result would be crippling. It is not, it is in fact the opposite.

There is no evidence on a microscopic level that indicates a disruption of the functional unit involved in muscle contraction. On any comprehensive and or reliably predictable model is this shown. Moreover, soft tissue does not heal from trauma in the manner that is congruent with any DOMS theory. In a nutshell, In most all cases muscle tears are not occurring at all in post exercise soreness.

My technique includes self-massage, special type of stretching, not static or dynamic, and how the brain works with the tension in the muscle. I realize there is not a lot of studies in this area and nothing to prove what I do, but I am telling you, my clients 55 and above, are amazed at how quick the muscle soreness stops.

    02:55 🚫 El dolor muscular no es principalmente causado por "microdesgarros" en los músculos, como se creía. La inflamación y la respuesta inmunológica son factores clave.
    05:46 🤯 El dolor muscular puede ser resultado de un bucle neural, no necesariamente de daño muscular. La presión sobre los receptores nerviosos de los husos musculares podría ser la causa.
    11:28 🏋️ Realizar ejercicios de baja intensidad después de un entrenamiento intenso puede ayudar a aliviar el dolor muscular más rápido que descansar por completo.
    13:22 🔍 Se postula que la liberación de radicales libres de las mitocondrias puede desencadenar una respuesta inflamatoria en los músculos y contribuir al dolor muscular. Más investigación es necesaria para confirmar esto.

      @@deadbones23 if the question is why does carbs make muscles sore, one reason is chronically elevated insulin leads to inflammation in the body. Every time we eat, insulin is released. Eating 3 meals plus snacks in between, means insulin is always high. The carnivore diet usually consists of two meals a day of fatty beef. The protein and fat makes us full, so we are able to go 16 hours without eating easily. The insulin drops low during fasting hours, causing fat stores in the body to be released and people lose weight fast.

    These guys are reaching. It’s trauma, whatever you want to call it. The pain/soreness can onset within HOURS. For example, workout in the evening, the next morning you’re sore. Also activity (blood flow) can mitigate the pain/soreness (perception), so for example if you workout in the morning and you’re active afterwards you may delay the soreness/pain which is again PERCEPTION based. It doesn’t take 24-48 hours for the physiological part to START! The problem is that the soreness generally doesn’t RESOLVE in that time (24/48 hours).

      @@lunam7249 let explain perception to you. Perception is highly subjective. That does not mean perception doesn’t have a physical trigger/stimulus. For example, a common perception scale we use in our exercise physiology lab is rate of perceived exertion (RPE). Does RPE have a relationship with physiological alterations? Sure it does cardiovascular strain, muscular strain, thermal strain, etc play a role, but can RPE be different if these strain variables are controlled? Absolutely. Let me further explain to you. Have you heard of an epidural, a “saddle block”? That blocks pain signaling to the brain. Does that mean that biochemical processes of pain are prevented at their root? The answer is NO. So, pain is very much perceptual. It relies totally on sensory triggers/afferent impulses to the brain. Block those pathways off and no pain, even though someone’s leg may be cut off.
