Summary
Tulip 75658 reported PEM symptoms appearing two to three hours after exercising and lasting one to two days, with severe mental confusion, exhaustion without sleep, shivering and gut upset, leaving them unable to drive or read. Any non-cardio training that engages muscles and causes soreness almost guaranteed PEM afterward. Cardio, which typically doesn't cause muscle soreness, was tolerated better.
