No Pain, No Gain

The saying "no pain, no gain" is one that almost all of us are familiar with. Trainers frequently utilize it to encourage clients to work harder. It refers to the widely believed notion that you must experience some level of discomfort or soreness after working out in order to reach your fitness goals. Additionally, we believe that just because a particular exercise causes more pain than another, it must be superior.

Now, it's entirely normal to have some soreness in your muscles after working out, but just for the first few days if you stay at home and don't exercise frequently. As part of the body's natural reaction to a relatively new, atypical sort of exercise, that kind of pain actually helps the muscles by making them stronger. To attain your goals more quickly, this does not imply that you should hunt for increasingly difficult exercise regimens.

Exercise shouldn't be painful on a regular basis, even though some pain is acceptable and even normal. Exercise is the same as, for example, an open wound in that pain is the body's method of alerting you that something is wrong. Ignoring this warning could exacerbate whatever is causing it and possibly result in longer-term problems.
