Are you talking about Delayed-onset-muscle-soreness, or about pulling or straining a muscle?

also, stretching before and after training cuts down on soreness quite a bit.

white tiger balm!
almost got my arm hyperextended from an armbar and it hurts like hell, got the **** smothered on my elbow.
but rub this **** on any soreness and it shuld take away some of the pain
otherwise I recomend 500-1000 mg hydrocodone (vicodin) or some muscle relaxers.

Shadowlifting, Contrast showers, Food, rest.
It's not as hard as you think it is.
Educate yourself, but stop thinking too much...

most things that people say you can do are most likely gimmicks. it just takes time. personally, i like being sore from my workouts
especially the day after leg day

Oh and GPP is the way to go!
It also helps in increased recovery.

Damn, BigKaz, you were faster (17 minutes, didn't update the page)

A few minutes in a warm shower followed by 45 minutes of stretching - not only will you feel better but you will want to sleep like a baby.
I'm back. For good.
