THIS HURTS!

What hurts...: calfs, hamstrings, legs

How you hurt it...: After doing the hamstring nerve glide and mild stretch in your video I'm now fine. However, I feel still weak in my legs. I have spasms in my calf, hamstrings and other muscles in the leg all day. I work all day in my computer; so I guess my muscles are tight and weak of just sitting in the desk. I have to warm up a lot to go for a gentle jog with pauses every say one minute. Each time I feel a spasm while walking or running I have to stop and I do massage and then it gets better. Today i kept on running and calf spasm got better, but they were sore, discomfort when walking. I iced it. My hobby is teaching dancing; however, after all these injuries, I'm teaching very little and without forcing myself. So ideally I would like to be in shape again for more high impact dancing. (I'm doing the stretches for the calf and hamstring in your videos)

When you hurt it...: Calf 4 mnths ago, mild hamstring straing 2 weeks ago

Your pain level (1 is low, 10 is high pain): moderate, more is the spams , and weakness in legs.

Your age and overall health...: Im 42, and healthy otherwise.

Sit to Stand: Feet about shoulder width apart. Sit in a chair. You may need to use some support to push off, such as the arm rest or pushing off your legs. Shift your weight so your nose is over your toes to help stand. Your goal is to do this exercise without using any support. Repeat this 10 times, 3 times a day.

Sitting Hamstring Curls: Find some tubing or resistance item, perform a hamstring curl from a seated position. Repeat this 15 times, 2 times a day on both legs. You may progress to performing these exercises in a standing position to increase the intensity.

Seated Heal Raise: Raise your heals from a seated position. Repeat 15 times, 2 times per day. Once you can perform ...
