As a young person this only happens if im trying something new and stressful all day fro one day. i guess its normal to feel sore after a hard day at work or at training. even if its just being sore in the morning everyday its probably a delayed muscle reaction. lack of rest. u might not know it but 85% of all people who have this proble is because of their bed. I was reading this article saying that in order to get complete relaxation i your muscle you should replce your bed every year and take a bubble bath once a month. hope that helps.

 doughboy i think we should start a special club for people with injured bums. i pulled a muscle in mine last night at class and have been walking around all day as though i have had an accident in my boxer shorts. i think i am the only one who is not finding it funny

i once pulled my groin, it felt so good, i pulled the other side right away.  my bum has been something else. i've pulled butt muscle before, but they always went away in less than 2 weeks. this one, while it is getting better very slowly, it still hurts everytime i stretch. one the positive note though, because i was trying to stretch my bum from all different angle, my flexibility improved a bit. before, i had to do good 10-15 min warm up before i could do splits, but now, no warm up's needed before being able to do splits. when my lower back acted up few months ago, i went in for a massage, and this dude gave me a massage. it was little weird at first, but he was so strong, i actually liked it. so when i pulled my bum, i thought about going in for a massage, but then i kinda got scared cuz i thought i might like it when that dude massages my butt.

I have a slipped disc in my lower back. We have a whirlpool tub and that has been a Godsend for it. The back is slowly healing. I'm not allowed to do weight training nor Tae Kwon Do until October. Doc is letting me do elliptical, exercise bike, and stretching for now. The back does get tender afterwards. I do take either Aleve or Ibuprofen which helps with the inflamation.

I just wanted to let you know that I talked to a pharmacist about Epsom salts. I started bathing in the salts (2 times thus far) and an injury I sustained last thursday, felt better the next day - btw it was excruciating just 1 hour after the occurance. The salts help with muscle soreness on top of general promotion of healing of the body.

Glad to hear the salts are helping. I generally only do it when my knee or foot is killing me.

As long as we're talkin' injuries..... I pulled my right calf muscle 5 months ago & it STILL hasn't healed! I've had an MRI (nothing torn, thank God!), had 2 months of physical therapy, & have seen 2 orthooedic surgeons (both say, "I dunno how to help you.") I can't do more than 3 jumping jacks with out pain, & even teaching class is hard to do. I've gained 10 lbs in 5 months since I can't run anymore. Since this has gone on for so long, I stopped taking Advil regularly. After 5 months, regular doses wouldn't be good for my liver. I'm in process of trying to see a third specialist to see what they can do. I stretch & ice daily. I appreciate your prayer, y'all.  |

getting back to the point, this website explains why muscles ache after exercise and why it is an important step in conditioning your muscles, it helped me to know that there was a reason why I was in pain and that it was a beneficial pain. My other half thinks that this is where the 'no pain, no gain' saying actually came from. http://media.newscientist.com/article/mg15520954.800-running-ragged.html tracey xxx |

When I was coming up through the colored belt ranks I used to feel like I'd been in a meat grinder half the time. Here are a few things that helped me: -Ice. It's perversely comforting to stretch out on the couch with Ziploc bags full of ice on my knees after a hard TKD class. My busted-up feet took much comfort in a bucket of ice and water. -Massage. If I had the $$$ I would get a massage every month. A good massage therapist can work miracles on sore backs and our chronically tight hip flexors.
-Stretch after class when you are at your warmest. Make a big deal out of relaxing into the stretches (I dislike partner stretching because I don't trust amateurs with my old muscles).
