Hangers, a quick question...
Okay, I’ve been hanging for about 3 months. I started with 2 sets of 15 min. with 5 lbs. I now generally work 4 sets of 20 min. per day, with 12.5-5lbs. The reason for the range of poundages is that 12.5 is currently the most I can handle reasonably comfortably, I usually will acheive fatigue with this weight in one set, then move down to 10 lbs for 2 sets, then finish off with a final set at 7.5lbs. I basically consider 12.5 to be my max weight.
Anyway, this weekend, I had some extra free time, so I added a bunch of sets to my workout. I worked like 6-7 sets Sat. and Sun. Everthing was the same, except I was working with 7.5 lbs for the additional sets. I basically feel fatigue the whole time. Which brings me to my question: I am now sore all the time now. This week, I tried to start a workout with 12.5lbs, and it was laughable, so I had to move all the way down to 5lbs! The soreness is totally coming from my ligs. It feels like fatigue, it just starts instantly. Should I continue riding this constant fatigue, or is it time for a break, so I can get back to the heavy weight workouts? Thanks guys.
