Snowbat Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 I just started to practice karate and did my first session of shadowboxing yesterday on my own. I just imagined I had a sparring opponent in front of me and did the attacks that I would normally do iin a real sparring fight: punches, kicks, combinations, etc.However, like an idiot, for some reason I failed to warm up before that. I did two sessions of 3 minutes and they were immediately pretty intense. I was out of breath afterwards.Anyways, this morning, I got out of bed, feeling normal. But as I was walking to the railstation, a pain came up in my left quadricep. The strange thing is it only came up after a few minutes of walking. Before that I was fine. It's not a constant pain when walking: it feels like some sort of deep sting that lasts one second every time I take a step.The odd thing is, my leg feels fine for the rest: I can walk to the coffee machine to grab a coffee, I can take the stairs up, I can squad on one leg a few times, I can bend or stretch my leg with resistance without feeling pain. I can stretch the quadricep without resistance, I can press on the muscle without feeling pain.It's only when I move it for a longer time (several minutes) that this pain kicks in.It's not swollen nor does it show any visual bruises on my leg.I realize you guys are most likely not doctors, but it interests me to hear if anyone has ever experienced this?I hope it's one of those "things that come up and go away by itself in a few days" see what I mean?Thanks!

bushido_man96 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I don't think I've ever felt anything like that before. If it continues, let a doctor know. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnssimpsons Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I think you are rarely walk in a day or you always use car or any vehicle to go anywhere. Your leg cause pain because you rarely walk. It happens sometimes but if you have severe pain after walking then you should consult a doctor.

JusticeZero Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 I had a spot of muscle strain once that acted a little bit like that.. Eat bananas, drink lots of water (Get a gallon jug, fill it in the morning, and work your way through it over the course of the day), take a hot shower, and it'll probably fade in a couple days.
