Emissary2Ornj Posted April 6, 2013 Report Share Posted April 6, 2013 It's so awesome to have my legs feel like jelly again! Seriously. I haven't been able to squat for about 5 weeks, or do anything that rotated the hips/curved the lower back/sacral area. The strain probably isn't completely healed - but I tried to be careful and test various movements. I busted out 3 sets of squats - can tell I'm not 100% healed but I'm way better than I was. Did squats and back lunges for leg work, military presses w/resistance bands for arm work, and bird dogs (5 second hold per rep) and planks for core work. Stretching felt great after. Such a great feeling to feel like I've actually done some work! (I'm still a little scared I did too much too fast... but I'm giving myself the weekend to recover, and using ice and ibuprofen to keep any extra swelling down. I was going crazy not doing squats!)

LacesHigh22 Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 Good job! Remember to rest when you need it and not push yourself too hard! I know full well how hard it is to find that Line without crossing it when it comes to coming back from an injury. I wish you the very best!
