Some pain is typical, however you can reduce it by stretching before and after a workout. I personally like to come home and take a long bath after I have had an intense workout, this helps soothe your muscles. There are other ways to help reduce the pain, but I cannot think of them all at the top of my head. Look in the other threads, I know that there was a recent post put up on how to reduce muscle pain.

Never again. Try the sauna/steam room after a workout, does wonders for me. -------------- If in doubt K.I.S.S.
