Why Do I Repeatedly Pull The Muscles In The Back Of My Thighs?
Thursday, July 17, 2008
Hamstring injuries are common and are susceptible to re-injury. In most people, the quadriceps or muscle in front of the thigh, is stronger than the hamstrings. The imbalance can cause-injury. Another reason this area can be a problem is that many people simply have tight hamstrings. My advice is that if they are a problem, pay special attention to working the hamstrings in your training program. Maybe set aside a special session just for them or at least train them first in your leg workout. My other suggestion is to incorporate stretching into your workout. Stretch after each set you do and again at the completion of your leg workout.
