So i was bouldering outdoor on saturday, indoor on sunday, resting (and aching a lot) on monday.
yesterday my forearms were still noticeably sore, as if i had some kind of inflammation/microtrauma, but i went for a session anyway...very stiff and painful in the beginning, getting better and better as i warmed up. Ended up doing quite an intense session (even if relatively small volume-wise).
Today i expected to wake up still trashed, but...wtf??? my forearms feel fine, tired but definitely not as bad as i thought. No particular pain or inflammation. Almost as if last nights bouldering session "healed" me somehow.
It's not the first time i experience something similar, but i still find it very counterintuitive.
Just for the sake of curiosity, anyone has an explanation?
