Discuss with your trainer. They can tell you which muscle(s) you are over working. Can try Tylenol, hot tub and slowing down if your Dr says OK.

In addition to Dr Grime’s advice you can take magnesium supplements (over the counter) which can have muscle relaxant effects, & after hot tub or warm compresses try Aspercreme or Voltaren gel (over the counter) which are anti inflammatory creams. But also consider alternating days with intense elliptical one day, then a different activity the next, to rest muscle groups
