Still judging your workout by how sore you feel the next day?
Hereās something worth knowing.
Research shows that muscle soreness is NOT a reliable indicator of muscle growth or strength gains.
In fact, as your muscles adapt to regular exercise, youāre likely to experience less soreness ā even when your training remains effective.
So next time youāre not sore after Pilates, donāt assume you havenāt worked hard enough.
Progress is measured by what your body can do, not how much it hurts afterwards.
