Exercise: How Can I Ease Sore Muscles?

Q: Exercise — First Wives World blogger Faith Eggers asks: Sometimes after a workout (generally the next day) I feel very sore. I'm doing your stretches beforehand, is there anything else I can do to ease sore muscles?

A: Following your workout, make sure you spend some time stretching out the muscles you worked. Your body is warm and loose post-workout which is the best time to stretch. Getting a massage is also a nice way to ease sore muscles or take a hot bath with some epsom salts.
