If you have been following my blog or my snapchats (mtate24) for a while, you might have read or heard me talk about nursing a hurt leg for the past two months. To get you up to date, my left hamstring was so overworked and inflamed from over exercising that the muscle was trying to shut down. My hamstring has been hurting since the beginning of the year but I ignored the pain thinking it was just sore. Unfortunately it got to the point I was in constant pain. Sometimes it hurt so bad I could barely walk. My Orthopedic Dr. said I needed to stop working out for a while and really rest my leg. For someone who is as active as I am, not working out is very hard for me to do, but if I wanted to heal my leg and get back to 100% I had to rest.
