It was not consistent - and in the past such things went away on their own if I backed off a bit... No sharp pain, just warmth and achy pain rather than sharp pain that became worse over time. I am stubbornOriginally Posted by indysteel

Yeah, taking it easy and ramping up slow will be hard, I KNOW me
The alternative isn't pleasant however, so I will do it!

Sorry - I'm new so I don't know your injury. But now I'm worried . . . . Do you mind a quick rehash?

Pulled hamstring, along with quad and hamstring tendinitis - it took sometime for me to figure/accept that there was a problem. The two main threads where I hashed this out with some good advice from the good women of TE are found here, and here if you want to read the details. Originally Posted by Gidget506

Pretty soon thereafter developed pain in what I eventually learned were the tendons for both muscle groups. There was never a sharp pain in my hamstring as one reads will happen, more deep ache kind of pain. That is one of the things that made it hard to decide if there was a real problem or just getting used to going clipless or some other thing. I am also stubborn and tend to ignore pain...and this was also an unusual combination of injuries.
I did learn that often hammie injuries are from an imbalance between quad and hamstring, but in my case they prove to be equally strong. Muscles governing lateral movements, however, are much weaker than the quad/hamstrings and that is the primary area that my PT has been focusing on.Last edited by Catrin; 11-11-2010 at 02:14 AM.
