Condition training while sore?

Arthur Capehart II · 01-14-2009, 04:19 PM

Is it advised to still do my conditioning training while I’m still a little bit sore from 2 days ago? I ask because I only feel the soreness when I sit for a long period of time then try to move. But as I move around the soreness goes away.

If you workout while you are sore you will die. Seriously, don't do it!

This is a serious matter take your sarcasm elsewhere.

If you workout when your sore a number of things can happen the first being overtraining right away I mean if you have any soreness at all you can't get your heart rate above 83 or it will lead to internal combustion. Another big one is the guns each minute spend training sore is a inch off the arms.

Move forward with caution young one

I'm sorry I don't completely understand that. Could you reword it for me? Also I'd like to add the type of training I'm doing is boxing training. Jump rope, heavy bag, speed bag, mit work, footwork etc... Hopefully this helps.

Also I read this I'm not sure how true it is. Hopefully some of you more experienced than I could shed some light on this for me. Thank you for your time and patience.

Alright I was being a dick, yes you can train when you are sore, ways to avoid overtraining are proper nutrition and rest. In short though go train go box and just listen to your body i've been training over a year boxed monday and tuesday and i'm a little sore in the back and arms area but I got comp. team tonight, I mean really you will almost always be sore/tired.

Well I thank you for your honesty in being a dick

But I see where you're coming from. Thank you for the advice. I'll try and tone it down a notch tonight.

This question has been asked numerous times, in fact a pretty similar thread is going on right now in the Stand-up forum. You couuld have just done a search to get the answer. Use this search, it's better than the sherdog search: Sherdog Forum Search

In a nutshell, if the quality of your training is not declining then you can continue to train. If your training is getting worse (lifting less weight, running slower, technique is getting worse or however it applies to your training) then you are overtraining. Like Quest4Glory said proper nutrition and adequate sleep help.

Usually I'm sore from lifting M, W, F. Middle days T, TH, S I do conditioning. I find the conditioning usually makes my soreness dissipate and sometimes even go away.

Quest is right though. Listen to your body.. if it needs rest you'll be able to tell. I say suck it up and train.

If I didn't train when I felt sore, I'd hardly train. I'm have some form of soreness almost every single day of the week, even after a day off.

And so you should young man

My particular thing is to train when I feel exhausted, which leads to overtraining.

I don't often feel sore, maybe some lower back stiffness after deads or squats.
