BAD NEWS
I strained my left hamstring riding my bike when I slipped on ice. So mad about ti but eh, got to my chiro and I am feeling better.
however, this is a good opportunity for others to see what I do when this happens.
Treatment plan
1-eat ibuprofen every 4-6hrs (I am not a fan of ANY pain killer but I am using it for it as a NSAID)
2-ice
3- elevate when easy to do so
4-DMSO and ibuprofen (topical)
5- REST! and hope… I have never got a strain in my hamstring before.

As soon as I can say the same im legally changing my name to Kalle The Champ Beck
BACK TO THE GYM!
My hamstring is still a little strange but it has made major improvements…
day one- day of injury, went from feeling fine to limping when I walked. between 1st and 2nd degree sprain
day two- much better, could only feel it when I had to pick something off the ground.
day three (today)- WAY better, I can pick things up and it des not hurt, I stopped taking oral ibuprofen, still ice, compression, elevation, and DMSO/ibuprofen on area. Managed an excellent lift. only issue is the DMSO is giving me a little bit of some chemical burns. Oh well.

overall- one of the most beneficial things someone that is injured can do is have strict dedication to healing, the second best thing they can do is to stay positive and upbeat.

Looking good as always man. I had a similar injury to my quad/knee. It was healed by the next day but the aforementioned knee was substantially weaker. It took a little time and activity before it was back to normal.

585x4 Straps were coming undone, first rep was UGLY! NO BELT, I feel this would go up no problem for ten (with straps) if I worked a little more flexibility, I might do it for fun but I think the tightness in my hips helps with my yoke ability so I will not actively try to get better at a lift that is of no use to me in contest. First heavy sumos in over a year though!
