Goldfarb’s advice to athletes featured in Runners World magazine

Allan Goldfarb, Ph.D., a UNCG professor of exercise physiology in the Department of Kinesiology, was featured in the December 2010 edition of Runners World magazine. In the article, Goldfarb offers advice to runners on evaluating when muscle soreness is a normal response to a workout and when it may be a more serious issue requiring medical attention.

“Muscles go through physical stress when we exercise, and the discomfort that stress causes may be perfectly normal,” Goldfarb says in the article. “It’s proof your body is adapting and growing fitter. You’re reprogramming your muscle structure and making weaker cells stronger.”
