The Problem
A lot of people come in saying something like:
“I pulled something at the gym.”
It might feel sharp at first, then sore and tight afterward.
Muscle strains are extremely common.
Why It Happens
Usually, a few things are going on:
• Doing too much too soon
• Poor movement mechanics
• Fatigue
This overloads the muscle beyond its capacity.
Quick Tip
Try this:
Reduce intensity and keep moving lightly, rather than complete rest.
When Massage Helps
Massage can help improve circulation and reduce muscle tightness.
This can speed up recovery and reduce stiffness.
If it’s not improving, it may be worth getting it checked out.
