Krav Maga class last night. After all the kicking I can barely lift my right leg.

OP, I remember being your age and obsessing about what my body looked like. Now, with the perspective of age, I feel such sadness at the time and energy I spent on worrying about how my body looked. What a waste. Focusing instead on how I feel and what my body can do is incredibly empowering. I wish I knew better how to…

I found that physical therapy and custom made inserts help tremendously. I did have to give up running and find other ways to exercise, or it would flare up.

I’d be annoyed. It feels a bit condescending. I’d like to think that someone working in a sporting goods store would be a bit more knowledgeable. Hopefully it was a learning experience for the guy.

First Krav Maga class! Hard but fun.

Lovely story!! You rock!

Two 30 minute walks.

I could, but I’ll have to wait until this pain passes! If this isn’t DOMS, what’s the next step? Do I try to see a physical therapist?
-
Yes, I foam roll with every workout!
-
Typically 3 sets of 8 reps. And I’m lifting very light!! I did 30lbs Tuesday and am hobbling around in pain. I mean, I can lift way more than that over my head!

Thanks, all, I appreciate your insights!

Choking. I choked once when I was home alone and had to perform the Heimlich maneuver on myself. I was never so scared in my life, I didn’t stop shaking for hours. I don’t worry so much about myself choking as I do my son, who is 9. I cut his food small, and never leave him alone when he’s eating. It’s always in the back…

You are incredible!!

My biggest challenge is meal prep. With a busy life, sometimes it’s SO much easier to grab takeout, but that’s hard to fit in my calories.

2 mile hike with my 9 year old. Our first hike of the season!

So you have an old injury to be concerned about? [/quote] No, nothing I’m aware of. I’ve experienced this pain with squatting since I started lifting, always in both legs. I’ve also taken over a year off lifting and all other activity save walking, and when I started back to lifting about 2.5 months ago, the pain was back.…

Thanks!

A burning kind of pain, almost. Equal on both sides. And highly sensitive to touch. I’m really not sure if it’s DOMS or some old injury. I squatted earlier today and they hurt almost immediately, enough that I skipped the interval workout after lifting and just walked. They feel slightly sore now, and will probably be…

So, increase squat frequency, and if I don’t see improvements over a period of time, assume it’s an injury (and seek PT?).
-
I do keep toes out and have played around with my stance. Hasn’t seemed to help:(

Would you suggest switching to a plan with increased squat frequency? I usually do the opposite and hold off on squatting when I’m sore!
