Monday, I started working out with a semi-private trainer, sort of like CrossFit. Yesterday was day 2 and I expected to be sore today.
But in my high up the inner thigh? Maybe it was from the squats lifting a sand-filled ball so I had a wide stance. I need a name for that muscle so my screams are more understandable.
Oy, and I have a huge mtb weekend planned. Saturday is a big epic ride (mostly downhill, thank goodness) followed Sunday when I have to keep up with 3 tandems (fortunately, NOT mostly downhill). Let me say "oy" again.

Adductor I believe.
Hiking, Biking, Paddling, Swimming, Surfing, & Running to my heart's content (or at least trying).
You're never too old to try something new!

This too shall pass, Grasshopper. Riding will probably feel good.
I'll never forget the first time I did what I call the "Thousand-Hundreds":
Row 1000m
100 pullups (assisted)
100 situps
100 pushups
100 squats (just bodyweight!)
100 Grasshoppers (some Crossfit thing that kills your core)
Row 1000m
Drying my hair and sitting on the toilet were torture for a few days after that.
I LOVE IT!!!!

I can never remember if it's the adductor or the abductor, so I just ask my trainer, which muscles do you use on the giant thigh-master machine?
Thank you thigh-master!!
