I'm not sure if this goes for all muscles, but for biceps, if they bruise easily, that is a sign that you overdid it. And, if you are sore after every workout, it's probably a good indication.

The only time I have soreness is with my lower back after doing the deadlifts. I was doing squats and deadlifts in the same session but just moved the deadlifts from my leg day to the day when I do my back and biceps.

After my last set of deadlifts I have to bend down and pull the plates off the bar and my lower back is so warn out it's painful and just taking the plates off the bar feels like a set in of itself. I could use some sort of block or something to prop one side of the barbell up at a time so I could then just slide the plates off rather than them dragging on the floor as I yank them off. I wonder if they make that sort of thing. Then after the deadlifts I have to bend down to put the plates on the leg machine for the lying leg curls and my back is still so warn out that that's painful also. No other lifts give me any problems or any soreness. Just the deadlifts.

I was doing three sets of 315lbs. for 4 reps and knew I could do more so then I went up to 3 sets of 325lbs. for 4 reps. I know I can do more so next week I'll try 335lbs. for 3 sets of 4 reps. In a few weeks I'll go for a one rep max.

soreness has zero indication of anything. please do not post such rubbish. this is a huge misconception and when you post something like this you are misleading the OP.
