Lbs and 3x5. I am a novice considering I am one of those who was in the gym but not truly training.

Quite unassuming of you to believe that a novice asking for advice about soreness is casually pulling 550x5...

Keep on training. The best thing you can do is to pump some blood around the sore muscles doing exactly what got them sore. It's funny, but you would think sore muscles would be somehow weaker, but once over the initial stiffness they respond like they were never stiff to begin with.

A light squat day always worked soreness out for me. If you don't have them already knee sleeves are great for achy knees to keep the tendons warm between sets. Especially the further North of 40 you are. YMMV.

When I started LP my knees were very sore the first few weeks. Partially because of knee slide, and partially because I had weak knees.
