If you only felt the pain the next day it was DOMS. If you had felt a sudden sharp pain during the exercise then it would have been an injury. Basically your muscles were filled with lactic acid because your body wasn't conditioned enough to give them the oxygen they needed to expend energy aerobically - so it used an anaerobic method and lactic acid was produced as a result. Could also be that you had larger muslce tears then normal, and just needed to rest a bit longer than usual for them to heal.

I had the exact same thing happen to me after an extended canoe trip. Biceps killed me for 3 days straight! It will go away eventually, but smaller and lighter movements will help move the lactic acid away and get blood flowing to the muscle, without any detrimental effects. As you continue to progress DOMS will occur less frequently

 

Yes , it was that, when i started working out i always had my legs crying with pain xD, now i never have it.

Btw:
