Episode 2964:
Dr. Neal explains that recognizing the difference between sharp pain and normal muscle soreness is crucial for safe and effective weight training, especially as we age and naturally lose muscle mass. He reassures that some post-workout soreness is normal and explores the mixed evidence on muscle scraping techniques like the Graston Technique for relieving stiffness.
Quotes to ponder:
"Pain is dangerous. Discomfort is where you get better."
"The bottom line with muscle scraping is that if it’s not causing harm, and it seems to help, then go for it."
"If you have access to weight machines, then you could try using those for those exercises that caused muscle pain."
