hi there!!

Newbie question time again ....

I started a weight training program last week. The trainer at the gym game me a program that I managed half of with great effort and for the next 3 days my muscles were killing me. Yesterday I did the same schedule, but managed to finish it all. I made an enormous effort and really pushed myself to what I felt was a safe maximum, but this morning I feel almost no muscle pain/tiredness at all. What does this mean?

I really feel I couldn't have done more without doing any damage... if I don't feel much fatigue today does this mean that I didn't work out enough or what?

Second question: should I be eating differently on days that I work out as opposed to days that I don't? (I've ordered Trainer Dan's book so I guess all these questions will be answered there, but I'm very enthusiastic cause I've never done weight training and can't wait to see a litlle muscle!!!)

Third question: I'm being told by various people that I should drink water during training only before and at least 1 hour after but I get awfully thirsty. is it ok to drink during?

Thanks in advance for any replies to maybe dumb questions...
Bye
