Anyone else have a bodypart that NEVER gets sore?

[emptywallet]

This really pisses me off, as I, like most here, have come to kinda like the achy feeling you get after a good hard workout, lets you know you did what you had to do, I've had this happen everywhere, but I just can't get it in my bi's.I have no idea why this happens, as just about every single part of me gets sore as hell within two days of drilling it. Every part, except my bi's. I have no idea why this is, I can work the hell out of them, doesnt matter if I just go heavy as hell, or go medium weight , medium reps, or make them burn like fire, they never get sore. Another area that very rarely gets sore is my side delts. Fronts get a little tender, and feel achy, and rear's get tight, but the sides don't fell anything. Even the part of your arm you work when doing hammers (forgive me the name escapes me at the moment) gets sore and I can feel it strain when I straighten out my arms, but my bi', both large belly of it and the peak, never get sore at all. I can hardly work my tri's and they feel like someone beat on them with hammers. Anyone else have this? Or care to offer an explanation or some advice?

I can't get my calves to get sore for the life of me. It doesn't matter if I do 5 exercises with 4 sets a piece or lower sets higher intensity. They just won't get sore

Look on the training board for some shock principals. There was also an article about some different training methods on www.testosterone.net recently.

my biceps are never sore either. only when i do incline DB curls on a steep ass incline...and stretch that bitch out down low. curl it up and squeeze. basically just use incline DB curls on the steepest incline you can get and burn them real good. they should be sore after that, mine were and they are stubborn.

this has happened to me before. I found that changing exercises was much more effective than changing the number of sets, reps, or training days. keep trying new exercises untill you find one that your body doesn't like supinated chins through full ROM worked pretty well for my bi's, but everbody is different. i also found that warbird's curls work pretty well too.

Oh don't get me wrong, they grow like crazy like the rest of me. They just don't get sore. I'm kinda curious why. I would really be pissed if they didnt grow.

delts, for sure delts, never had them sore in my life, even when i was a beginner, every other body part can get sore, depends how hard i work them, but never delts, but they keep getting bigger and stronger, so i don't really care much

Only do exercises you get results from. Time to change you bi training.

Delts too, it pisses me off, maybe I will look into those shock methods.

My Delts also never get sore, they will ache while I'm training them but thats it.

my delts never got sore until this week when i started cornholio's 5x5 routine... weird only did 5 sets of military presses for the whole week and my shoulders felt it the next day.

 

[StRoNg_WoN]

I'd say delts for sure... strange... that seems to be the consensus...

 

[juice4me]

i have the same prob with my bis and also my back is hard to get sore.

 

[Dozerjay]

Bi's don't ever get sore unless I do incline dumbell curls .

 

[hhajdo]

My armes rarely get sore also, but I don't feel that that's has anything to do with growth since they've grown as much as the rest of my body, probably more...

Delts for me too, definitely. Glad to hear it's not just me.

Anyone with an explanation?

I haven't felt soreness in a good year or two now. Over time your body becomes accustomed to the overload and because of this it becomes far more efficient at recovery. I can change any number of variables in my program and still not get sore...(with the occasional exception of hams and glutes). I'm sure we all remember our first few workouts where we were nearly parralyzed from the soreness. As time went by and we diligently kept after it our body's made gains that could not be quantified by the mirror, scale, or bodyfat callipers....It became a more efficient machine. Our body's become more capable of dealing with the stresses of resistance training. Advanced bodybuilders actually need less protein than beginers(pound for pound comparison). We simply are able to make better use of the amino acids. Our body's become better at cleaning out metabolic debres from weight training. Our capilary system in the muscles grows and can accomidate a greater blood and thus nutrient flow to the muscles. A lot of changes happen that we can't see in all those years we beat away at ourselves with the iron. Soreness is not a predicator of muscle stimulation. Often times for advanced trainers it is an indication of injury. We absoulutely have to keep challenging the muscle in ways that thye are unaccustomed to, but this will not always guarantee soreness. Muscles like the biceps and calves have the fastest recovery time. This ultimately leads to thier stubborness and lack of sorness. It is fun to feel it that next morning. You get a measurable sense of accomplishment form it, but it isn't the only means to assessinig the effectiveness of a workout. Just train hard, keep your training challenging, and enjoy the fact that you are able to recover from workouts that would otherwise parralyze the normal person.
