That's the problem, it's not from training all that hard. And it is pretty debilitating and lasts like almost a whole week.
Been resistance training since 14, never any monkey business with any enhancements either. Always lifted to improve function, whether football, lacrosse, road biking, swimming, whatever. Was never about size, definition. Was doing plyometrics in the early 90's when the only people who knew about them were professional athletes and Olympians. So believe me, I am well used to being sore from training.
This is a lot worse. Not sure if it's just age and overtraining or if there is something I can do to help my body get rid of the lactic acid. The creatine does help. I am well hydrated (I track how much every day and it's at least 80 fl oz.) and do stretch and sometimes yoga.
