If someone is working out regularly but not over the top strenuously, but feels sore the next day every time, the first course is to increase protein.

- tallanvor 8y agoThis is, quite simply, horrible advice. If you are strength training regularly and slowly increasing the weights you are using, mild muscle soreness should be expected. If the soreness is bothering them, there are several options that are known to help - stretching, additional warmup or cool down exercises, ice, heat, or massage. The signs that could suggest a protein deficiency are decreasing muscle mass, weakness, and/or swelling, but even then you would suggest a trip to the doctor, not simply to increase protein intake.

- icebraining 8y agoI'm not sure how does that answer my question. Is that enough or optimal? And what is the other?
