The list looks good, just make sure that you are careful with climbs too, so you don’t over reach as you climb or lift yourself. I would avoid caterpillar too. Can you focus this week on some killer floor moves?

Have you? ðŸðŸ‚👻🎃

One thing to be aware of if using ankle weights is hip flexor strain and upper back/shoulder strain.This can be a non issue for someone who has been conditioning and strength training for a while, but if you’re not already feeling nice and strong in your inverts adding additional weight could cause injury. Most shoes are not 5 pounds each, but often ankle weights are. Adding that much to the end of your limbs really adds up.
As long as your invert technique is solid and consistent give weights a try but do it cautiously 💪ðŸ»

Rest is pretty much always the best idea, when an injury is new. 😊. Feel better soon!

Yes, lots of different opinions, I would guess the severity of the tear would determine the advice.

Oh and feel better soon!! ðŸ’

These things can take forever it seems, and sometimes the more we try to fix them the more we end up just irritating them!
One thing to be aware of when dancing or doing re-hab on it is the position of your pelvis, this can dramatically affect the stability and mobility of the hip and flexors and extensors of the hip.

The lower body routine is great as well! https://www.studioveena.com/lessons/view/52e9d171-5724-43b2-8784-47960a9aa0eb

From my understanding, massage and rolling an injury is good even early on because it will help prevent the scar tissue from forming back in a odd way making things tight for the muscle. However, I know recommendations are always changing and there are many theories out there as far as muscle injury go. I find heat helpful too, as long as I don’t have swelling.
I had similar pain when trying to focus on lengthening my hamstrings, they are my stubborn area, so I found using a tennis ball so helpful. After that, I made sure to be less aggressive with my hamstrings, now after doing tons of downward dogs within a reasonable ROM my hams are finally finding more length, but it’s been a sloooow process.
To use the ball, just sit down on the floor and place it under the bum, rolling around until you find the sore spot, then stay with that spot for a bit. Don’t sit on it for too long, like hours, just see if you can find the spot and sit with the tension until it starts to feel lessened. You can use the tennis ball before you workout or stretch and after or anytime of day!
