Joint and Muscle Progression for Safety and Performace Question

Coach, i've been reading a lot on the forum about joints and muscle.

 

I have these questions: 

 

 

1) Should all my trainings begin and end with pain free joints?

 

2) If after a workout i fell my joints sore and on the other day, if my joints still sore, it means that i'm pushing too hard and should step back? 

 

3) If i keep training with this a little soreness level without aggravating it, will me joints strenghten?

 

4) If u beggin a new exercise progression and feel your joint sore after or during the workout , the correct would be : "well i'm doing good, i will maintain without aggravating and will get stronger" or should it be like " i did to much, i will step back" 

 

5) While some muscle soreness is aceptable, joint soreness is acceptable in any degree?

 

6) In your personal experience, when one fell muscle soreness, you would advice him to continue with the training he did or take it easier on the next day? If one did one new progression today and felt a high or medium level of muscle soreness during or after the workout, would you advice to him to do it again tomorrow or you would say to he take it easier on the next workout?

 

If you coach or anyone want to give me an elaborated answer or a simple answer it doesn't really matter, what i really want is an answer to these question ( im not being parcial here, if there is not an answer, i will accept it :) ). The purpose of this is just to have a solid foundation on basic principles around my training, as i don't want to rush without knowledge, do things wrong and learn later what i could learn now ( if possible). 

 

I know that there can be much variables on the questions i made. But what i really want is coach advice on this, as i preffer to follow what he has to say with all his experience with more than 30 years of training than to base my self on the more " guess work variables " that we see so much in fitness today.

 

Either i'm not doing rush training and injuring my self, these questions are for educational purpose only. Sorry if these questions are already answered in the book. I don't have it right now.

 

Good night guys.

Speaking from personal experience - joint soreness bad, muscle soreness good. Allow the muscle soreness time to reduce before training it again.

 

If I remember rightly you are quite young, 16?, so it's even more important that you do correctly graded exercises and avoid joint soreness.

Personally I've always backed off from pushing the joints too hard, I always back off a lot if they feel sore. Had some slight tendonitis once, trust me you do not want it! As for muscle soreness I don't worry about it too much, you shouldn't and aim for muscle soreness, it is not a sign of progress! Strength, flexibility and efficiency gains are signs of progress
