Wow!
Thought I was unfit but not really unfit. Loved bootcamp, but today my thighs are killing..walking downstairs took a lot of energy!
What can I do to ease the stiffness? Next session is tonight.

Thanks

day 2 is always worse. personally I wouldn't ho tonight. you won't enjoy it nit get the best out of it.

Some believe Epson salts ease sore muscles. but they do nothing for me.

The next session may loosen the muscles.

you always need to do cooling down and stretching too.

the more you stretch the less chances for stiffness on the next day
