If Im not sore, am I still building muscle?!


Question: Ive been working out pretty steadily for about 5-6 months now, the past week I havent been as sore the next morning after my workouts. I recently introduced Creatine and Whey Protien to my diet and was wondering if this was a reason why? I am seeing the results I have expected and am happy with how I look, but I havent reached my goals yet.

Any advice?

BTW, I do switch up my routine with different excersizes, amount of weight and reps to keep the body guessing.

creatine will reduce recovery time, and this may reduce soreness, it can also help with energy production and help you push your self further.

I worked out for many years, not crazy bodybuilder intense, and had very little soreness unless I changed my work-out or did an occasional hard leg work-out for example.
If you are steadily lifting heavier weights...you will develope more mass guaranteed.

Weird when i started using creatine i started to burn more. I dont know if it was placebo but i seemed to last a little longer but i got sore more??? Maybe its your routine

Maybe you need to add more weight to your workouts or add more repetitions. It depends on if you are trying to add mass or stay toned.
