As per advice read here I've steered away from the whole "low weight, high rep" mentality and really pushed myself with my squats/dead lifts/etc a couple of days ago. I'm sore, which I don't really mind, but I want to make sure I handle this properly. How long do I need to allow for recovery before doing lower body stuff again? I've been doing some pretty intense cardio, so should I back off somewhat on that for a couple of days? Anything else I can do to aid recovery? (For a basic rundown on my goals and current situation, see my post on the introductory thread pinned at the top of this forum)
I feel really idiotic asking these questions, but I read all kinds of conflicting stuff on the internet and figure this is as good of a place to turn as anywhere. Thanks in advance...
