Why Am I So Sore?

Muscle soreness, or delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), is a natural part of CrossFit training, resulting from eccentric muscle actions that cause micro-damage, followed by repair and adaptation. While initially frequent for beginners, soreness becomes less common over time but can still occur after high-rep, calisthenic-heavy workouts like Karen or Cindy. Soreness signals productive muscle breakdown and growth, helping athletes build strength and refine technique.
