You Know You Had a Good Workout When... Today was chest day and I was determined to go (sensibly) heavier on everything. "More reps or more weight" is my current mantra in the gym. So I did. At my last rep on the pec deck I was absolutely out of gas. Pecs were pumped and sore and it's almost two hours later and anytime I move my arm over my chest I'm reminded that it was a good workout. Tomorrow morning should be interesting. My morning check is when I reach up to turn on the light on the night stand and my pec goes "Ow..." So it was a good workout. When do you know that you've had a good training session? bulkybud |

I would really like to know myself... I am a beginner, and I always go till I'm out of gas, and just can't move another rep. I hope whatever I'm doing is right. I won't be able to flex my muscles after a workout, coz they're sort of in a flexed state, in other words, they're numb. The next two days, I'll feel them tense. I only get aches from muscles I usually don't work much... But those feelings are kinda awesome. |

My personal opinion is when you are sore AND you have lifted more weight it's a win-win. That's one reason today's workout is seeming like a good one for me. bulkybud |

Good workout, good pump! I know I've had a good leg workout when I got to pull up my dress pants/street pants after changing out of my gym shorts and I have trouble pulling it up over my pumped butt and legs! I have to stop and (carefully) tuck things in "in front" before I can sort of work the pants up in the back! What a rush! Mdlftr |

Did a rather short leg workout day. Standing calf, leg extension, leg curl. Ran out of steam, but was nearly impossible to bend the knees for a few minutes upper legs really were pumped up. glad I didn't do seated calf after that. Have to find time later in the day to go back and complete my leg workout. __________________ Watch me grow at http://bodyspace.bodybuilding.com/Ragetiger/ I do keep a few other shots in the scraps folder http://www.furaffinity.net/user/ragetiger/ |

When I can barely move because the muscles are pumped so much that they restrict my range of movement. Sometimes I can't even comb my hair cause the biceps are hitting my forearms. |

After leg day, not being able to walk properly. Or unable to reach your back in the shower after doing shoulders/arms. |

Leg day: when my legs are wobbly on my walk home, but also when I can feel my jeans are tighter in the thighs than they were when I put them on. I've lost a lot of fat, so it's a rush to put on pants and have them be loose in the waist but skin-tight on the thighs and calves. upper body day: My personal trainer has me sign off after each session, and I know it's a good upper body day when I can barely hold the pen and can't recognise my signature. Also, lately I've been feeling the pump a lot more, especially on the chest, so it's a good day when my chest is swole. We're gonna be splitting up chest and back days soon, so it's gonna be even better. Arm day: it's always a good workout on arm day. But I LOVE when I'm able to increase the weight on something, because it means I'm getting stronger and my arms are getting bigger. But any day I get to the gym is a good day....I love working out and I think the gym is my favourite place to be right now. I know when I get there I can just take a break from any stress and focus on lifting heavy things for an hour or so. |

Agreed. I had not gone to the gym in about 4 weeks because I was "busy". Turns out I feel much better and therefore think much better when I workout than when I don't. Guess to some extent I'm redefining the term muscle-head. Quote:
