Hi everyone, I'm new to working out. I've mostly been walking and rowing. On Monday I incorporated body weight strength training, which included squats and lunges. Today is now Wednesday and I'm feeling the pain in my legs. How do I recover from this? Should I stick to my routine or take it easy today? I do warm up/warm down, stretch and eat protein heavy foods btw. I also really want to keep going as it helps my mental health. TIA.

Monday, the universal leg day.

Wisdom my brother imparted to me a good 14 years ago. I don't know why I keep it to that day but I'm glad I'm not the only one.
