Who likes it?

I know when my pecs, back or abs are burning I love the feeling, but when my Arms or Legs are burning I feel like ripping them off because it is just so annoying when im trying to lift something or walk.
 
The day after doing legs is rough. I cringe when I see stairs or try to sit down on the toilet....lol
 
that's the #1 reason why I don't like lifting weights when doing workouts for my legs.
 
I haven't lifted weights in forever

I had the perfect pushups

and now I just do as many pushups as they do in the military. 34. every, other day

If you keep a consistent workout, you shouldn't suffer the burning. (well after the initial startup of the program)

Legs are different.

No, they are not. The only reason you would suffer more burn is if you are consistently increasing your workout. (more weight, longer workouts, or just working them till they are about to collapse)

As I noted in the first post, if you keep a consistent workout, then the burning should cease for the most part.

Well everytime I workout of course I increase the weight or reps. Otherwise your not improving your staying consistent whats the point of that.

I dunno, wanting to be is great shape, but not wanting to look like Lou Ferrigno?

everytime? really?

so you started doing bicep curls at 30 pounds last month but now you're up to 100?

You have to change it up in phases of weeks, not every single time

Thats probably heartburn from the 12 slices a pizza you dominated.

Its bad. I know exactly what you mean.

BUT.

Your legs are your biggest muscles and the more you work them the quicker you will burn fat.

The good thing about lifting weights is you burn calories around the clock vs cardio where you only burn most of your calories at the time you are doing your cardio.

I dont do the same workout every day, and I start at 8 rep, then 10 then 12 then 12 until I can lift the next weight.

I curl 40s right now, just started it at 8 rep.
 
When I'm actually motivated to take my workout seriously, which is unfortunately not nearly enough, I love the burn everywhere.

Except when I'm doing it consistently the burn only last a few moments after each set. That crazy burn, weak, hurting and sore feeling only last beyond a few moments after a set for the first week or so I'm doing a work out. If you're still hurting, or sore, the day after workouts when you're consistently working out then there is something not quite right, IMO.

I mean even if you're increasing your reps, or weight, and such the soreness and burn shouldn't still be lingering there for long periods afterwards when you're consistently working out.

yep, but they are always doing them

unless you are in a special forces group, then you do more
