Why is it that each time i do muscle work and im sore, the next day the scale says ive gained weight? I sometimes check the scale from day to day and I had chrcked it before my work out yesterday and then again today and it says Im up 3lbs! My food and water is pretty stable, same with when i weigh myself (same time of day)
Totally normal. Muscles retain water after workouts, it's part of their 'repair' process. It's not 'real weight gain', so don't worry about it, and just go on with your plan.
