back in the saddle - same odd muscle pain

Post by longrowtohoe » April 7th, 2007, 12:48 am

It's been a few year since I last erged, but I'm back in the saddle after finding the lonely model D at our YMCA. So far, so good, but I am experiencing a minor pain that I remember from my college days (50 pounds ago): an infrequent light "snapping" sensation in my quads during the lay-back. The snapping feels a bit like threads breaking and usually happens near the end of a piece (30 min). Am I actually feeling individual muscle fibers tearing? There is no related pain afterwards. Is this something I need to pay close attention to?
