Few questions about Excercise

[hareem01]

@WIPER

There can be a lot of possibilities of the pain :

1. Lack of Strech : Streching braodens our veins and increase blood flow to the muscles, when we lift hevy weight without optimum streching - we end up with sore muscles.

2. Overlift : You might have lifted some very heavy weights which your muscle coudnt resist and your cells got tored which resulted bruises.

3. Improper technique : This is most important, I have seen people doing weight training in horrible manner and the worst part comes when they dont follow what is right and instead go for the easy way.

To exactly understand the reason and the kind of pain you got, I will need to know :

1. Do you strech the muscles before working out ?
2. Which exersice were you doing when you felt pain ?

And Yes : “Please stop doing any leg exersice for a while”

best,

Thanks for your reply.

I always stretch before and after the work out. This time I din’t stretch after the excercise because something important came up and I had to finish the work out quickly.
I didn’t feel anything during the work out, it was after few hours that the pain started.

I don’t do heavy weight lifting. About the improper techniques, well I’ve been following this dvd for few years.

I think it has to do with not doing the cool down and stretching after the work out.

Oh and those weren’t bruises…those were my vains. lol

No exercise until you know exactly what is happening.

See a doctor or physical therapist. It could be a nerve you pulled.

Yeah…that’s what it looks like.
