I generally keep on a regular
workout regime and understand the basics of muscle recovery....stretch, hydrate, etc. The problem is my thighs. When I work out it takes twice as long to recover and it is extremely painful for the first couple days. Every other target area, I experience the natural recovery process. For example, I worked on the back/tricep and was pretty sore the second day, but moved pretty quickly from there. I get it - there is pain involved and it takes time.
