Sore from Doing Only Push-Ups: Weird?
I was running late and didn't have time to go to the gym before work, so I hit the floor and did 100 push-ups (five sets of 20) and few sets of crunches - and that was my half-ass workout. But I figured, hey, it's better than nothing at all. So, anyway ... the next day, I was unbelievably sore. Delts, chest, even lats were (still are!) sore. From doing only push-ups??? Does this seem odd to you?

OK, that's pretty much along the lines of what I was thinking. I normally do one, maybe two sets of push-ups as part of my warm up. I guess the three extra sets is what shocked my muscles and made them sore.Originally Posted by Vadim Beliaev
Thanks, freak! And I mean that in a good way.

Isn't that funny! I wonder why that is... Maybe it's the same thing like me with the push-ups. You're used to leg day at the gym, but not used to running, perhaps?Originally Posted by LactoseTolerant

Yeah, my ass was crazy sore after walking to 4 classes in really nasty snow. I rarely get sore glutes on leg days, regardless of squatting ATG or not.
I want to touch the butt.

Nobody calls me freak in a good way.
I get called freak, though.
