I broke my butt

So I joined a gym in december because the weather was getting too snowy/icy to do much outdoor running, and they gave me a free hour of personal training with the membership. I had that session this saturday, and Pete worked me HARD - it was really great, he targetted the muscle areas that would help me improve my running (and weight loss) which were especially around my outer knees, outer thighs, and butt.

The next day Juliet and I were supposed to go to Street Funk class, but I was having trouble walking.... lets just say, I was sore. I've been sore ever since, and today (a full 4 days after the training session) I was better but still having tenderness in my hamstrings and glutes. Well, I went to the gym anyway, thinking I'd just do some basic cardio. Umm that didnt work. I started walking on the treadmill and.... I broke my butt.

My right glute KILLS. I think I pulled the muscle too hard. Oh Butt, PLEASE recover soon! You are so necessary for walking, sitting, and drawing the men-folk!!!

    for pulled muscles I reccommend rubbing sesame oil on the sore area every night. Let the oil soak in as you sleep. It works wonders and has helped me (and my students) with many muscle tears/muscle pulls/cramped muscles. Better yet - find some guy to apply the oil for you.
