D-doms?

Just wondering when everyone's DOMS set in, and if anyone has Delayed-DOMS? I usually feel sore about 48 hours after I train hard, not the next day. I used to get them within a day or so, but over the last 4-5 months it takes longer for it to set in. Any thoughts on why that is, or can I just attribute it to the good ol' "everyone is different" explanation?

well, doms is already delayed onset muscle soreness.. to answer your question, the peak can be anywhere from 24 to 48 hours.

ah, okay. So 48 hours can be considered standard. I guess that was my question. Thanks!

24 to 48 is standard but I usually feel it within 24. It may be that your body is more used to the workout and you just need to switch things up a bit.
