How to Prevent DOMS
Certain tactics may enable you to avoid delayed soreness or keep it minimal. It is important to warm up before you train and cool down completely afterwards. Stretching in between sets is also a good idea.
It's also important to give your muscles time to adapt to your activity. For example, if you have been inactive and your goal is to run 3 miles in 45 minutes, start by simply running a mile, and then add another quarter- to half-mile at each workout until you can comfortably run 3 miles. Then you can start increasing your pace to achieve your goal.
