Can muscle soreness from workout last a week ? Is it normal ?

Hi, can muscle soreness from workout last a week ? Is it normal to have sore muscles 5-7 days after working out ?

Yes, muscle soreness can last a week sometimes, but it may not be always normal.

You can expect to have sore muscles for 5-7 days when you start workout after a longer period of time.

The muscle soreness can also last longer if you workout more than usual.

Muscle soreness can last longer after more intensive working out. But if muscle soreness lasts for one week everytime you workout, it may not be normal.
