Is this normal?
I worked out my legs on sunday and there still very sore today. Is this normal, or is there something wrong I should be aware about.

stretching good before and after can help alot. i also warm up before and cool down after by getting on the bike for 5-10 min

Doin' a little cardio the day after leg day helps (PAINFUL, but is worth it in the long run). Make sure you stretch for a while after you do legs too. But yeah, I'm always limpin' for 3-4 days after leg day...so you're fine.

Stretching, warming up, warming down and light cardio the next day are excellent ways of reducing the aches. Good advice pilipo, Epiphany and TCEL

If it was your very first time lifting legs, or your first time from an extended break, it will be the sorest your legs will be. Next week they wont be as bad and the same thing for the week after. Keep at it, eventually it stops being painful and becomes addictive!

TCEL didn't make the thread, it was Corey. However, your points are valid and apply to any individual, Gun. I believe TCEL is an experienced lifter like yourself

Totally normal, I'm assuming your quads are the muscle that are still sore here... they are a large muscle so it is possible to be sure a couple of few days later, just like the chest.

Yeah, its basically my quads that are still sore, and no, I didn't do lunges. I did squats and leg press. could be why they're sore.

You could add in lunges as an auxilliary exercise for the quads and glutes. They are excellent. You might need to take out the leg press depending how you feel.
Do short lunges to hit the quads, long lunges to hit the glutes harder.
