I don't know if this is where I should post this but I'm hoping you guys won't mine if I post it here.
Anyway, everything was going great I had just gotten upf ro a restful night of sleep, had all my cute and comfy exercise clothes on and I even put on sunscreen, even on my face! I arrived on the field to play some soccer with a couple of friends. I was doing great and was blocking balls and defending my team with great kicks and then I started to feel tight on my right thigh. This had happened to me before but if I ignored it, it would usually go away. This time after another great (hard) defense kick, it felt like someone ripped my thigh. I immediately left the field and went home. The muscles on the front of my thigh (don't know what they're called) are so sore and tight that I can't do anything but walk (with some pain) I can't even lift my leg to put it on the couch.
So anyway, I was just hoping to get some ideas for some light exercises that I can do without injuring myself even more. I looked into pilates because I heard it was originally made for injured dancers, but it still is a little too strenuos for me. Any words/advice/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
