 Posted: Mon Jun 16, 2003 10:27 am Post subject: Sprint Pyramid(s) |
 |
|
I ran my first ever 100m/200m sprinters Sprint pyramid on Saturday at my local track at 1.00pm in the afternoon.Once I finished and my calfs were aching like mad.
I have had several baths ad massages and I've woke up this morning, and after lots of massaging and baths both the night before and the two following mornings after, my calfs still hurt.
How long will it take for me to fully recover???

48 hours is a typical recovery time from a hard workout, but if you've just introduced something very new and strenuous, peak soreness (delay onset) usually does not kick in until 48-72 hours after and may take up to a week in total to subside. It's important during that period to not get carried away and try to quickly build on the initial workout. Let the soreness die down before adding anything more, otherwise you set yourself back more than you progressed by adding the new stuff...

Thanks guys for your information. The soreness has nearly completely cleared anyway, so I guess that I am a quick healer. But thanks for your comments anyway.
Thankyou
