This Sucks.. pulled muscle = drop out of comp :(

[sweed]

I pulled a muscle in my quad, my quad and knee are swollen, been like this for a few days , have iced and heated it... i am less than 4 weeks out.. i need to do cardio every damn day, sometimes twice to get to where i need too, and thats not gonna happen now... this is the 2nd year in a row that i have had to drop out of my first comp!! last year it was school, this year damn quad.
This can only lead to one good thing.... bulking starts earlier! lets just hope i can keep this bf lower this year...
taking a good week off from the gym. sorry for the rantage

That heat will enflame the inflammation.

You never flame... flame

fuckin.....




jk... squatting....

I have bad knees and am really worried this is going to happen to me also. I cannot squat (like a catcher) without weight for more than a few minutes, when I do it's hard to get up.

For the first 2 days or so, ice only, then start alternating ice and heat. The heat helps get blood into the area and accellerate the healing process.

The ice reduces swelling and damage, its particularly effective immediately after sustaining the injury.

That sucks!
