Not sore anymore...
Question for all you long term lifters. I have been lifting weights steadily for about 9 years, with a short break for late pregnancy, ect., and have noticed that I no longer get that satisfying subtle soreness the next day. I lift 3x week for about 45-60 minutes, doing all the major muscle groups. Over the years I have steadily increased my weight, ex. now I bicep curl 20 pounds, bench press 60, squat 60, ect. I do mix my routine up, adding new things and I feel like they are rather heavy weights. I am tired at the end of each 3 set, but nothing the next day.
My goal is to be toned and strong, but not bulky. Question, should i be adding more weight still, will I bulk up if I do? Any new great ideas for mixing up my routine, my YMCA is limited, no bosu balls, just basics. I also do a lot of cardio. Thanks for your input. Amy
