My husband says it's because I produce a lot of lactic acid in my body during yoga. Lactic acid can hinder blood circulation and cause muscle pain. Generally speaking, as long as you have enough rest, the pain will disappear, but it will take longer. If you want to relieve the pain earlier, you should stretch and relax after practicing yoga, which will not only help relieve the pain, but also avoid the injury caused by exercise.
About how to stretch, my husband told me that stretching can be divided into static stretching and dynamic stretching, with static stretching as the main one. Static stretching is a static stretching exercise for sore parts by stretching muscles, while dynamic stretching is a massage and relaxation for sore parts. You can do the following actions specifically.
1, front thigh stretching
Stand firm with one foot and hook back with the other. Hold the ankle on the same side, slowly clamp the calf close to the thigh and touch the hip. After about 10 seconds, switch feet and stretch.
Step 2 stretch the inner thigh
The back is straight, one side of the thigh is under the bow, the other side of the thigh is straight, and the inner thigh has a pulling feeling. After about 10 seconds, switch legs and stretch.
Step 3 stretch the back of the thigh
Lie flat, keep one foot bent, raise the other foot straight, grasp the calf with both hands, slowly and forcefully pull your hands to one side of your body, stretch the muscles at the back of your thigh, and then turn to the other side.
4, leg massage
Massage the front inner side and front outer side of thigh repeatedly from top to bottom.
5. Relax your legs
When standing or sitting, the leg muscles relax and shake, and the ankle joint can move up and down, left and right.
The above are the ways to deal with thigh pain after practicing yoga. I hope my friends can help me.
