So you guys may have noticed that I haven't been posting much about my day to day riding. That's because I haven't been able to ride for the past week. I pulled my left quad extremely badly last week while playing a softball game to the point where getting in and out of the car was difficult. I've been icing and keeping it easy for a while, but it is still not good. The issue now is my IT band and the muscles around my left hip and left knee are overcompensating...
At least I can be thankful it's me that is injured instead of Koda.
Words from the now wised up - ALWAYS warm-up your entire body before doing any sports, whether you are equine or human.
Yikes!!! So sorry!
ReplyDeleteHope you heal fast!!
Ugh, I just pulled a muscle in my groin not warming up for my workout and I thought I was going to die "riding" today. Just get someone to hose you down, rub a little liniment in, and shove some bute down your throat. Should work, right? :P
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought!
ReplyDeleteI used my liniment, actually, but I like to use a foam roller on my leg. I haven't tried riding yet, walking 30 minutes is still uncomfortable...
Eek feel better!
ReplyDeleteSorry you're injured! I hope you make a full recovery before your upcoming holiday.
