Lifting weights has added so many little moments to my day to day where I say “wow that’s not as heavy as it looked”. I decided to prune a couple of trees in my front yard and haul the branches to the curb, not even a little sore the next day.

I didn’t start with a particular purpose but I knew I wanted something a little different. Now when I go to the gym and it’s a day I’m just not into it, I drag myself in there anyways.

Are people supposed to get sore from dragging a couple limbs?
Hahaha I’m a pretty scrawny build… throwing a chainsaw around and all that for a few hours and carrying the limbs would’ve definitely had me at least a little sore prior to working out
Considering the average fitness level of an adult in Western society, it's entirely likely.
