In this video, A.J. goes through the healing process step by step so that you can recover faster and get back to what you do best; exercising!

At this moment I'm in dance and I pulled my muscle a couple weeks ago and it hasn't gotten much better. My coach has told me to go see a doctor but my mom refuses. Saying "I'm not gonna go to the doctor just to have them tell you to take it easy". I new there was something I could do. I just didn't know what. Thank you for the info!

So it's Monday night and I pulled left quad badly on Saturday night. I have track races on Wed. and as the fastest in my grade and my extreme ego and competitiveness to beat everyone, I've broke down multiple times in tears knowing I won't be able to go.

I’m really sad, on Saturday I was practicing my splits and pulled a muscle. I have dance tryouts soon 😬😩

Since I do a lot of dance, and silks, I pull muscles a lot. So this helped a lot

I was doing the long jump in PE and the next day my leg was in really bad pain and whenever I cough my stomach would hurt

[sarahbarlow]

I'm skinny and I'm trying to get my glow up before we go back to school and I pull both of my muscles in my arms😭

[rigacusprime]

Thanks I try this for my pulled muscle that I have now. I fell from a bar. It wasn't super high like 7 ft high.

I was on the golf course when I pulled it, thought I could keep playing because it wasn’t that bad. Boy was I wrong

[t.g_buffington]

I’ve pulled the muscle in my bicep, im a Jr Bull rider, and I have a rodeo in 3 weeks. I can’t have an injury in my riding arm.

[Unknowngamer-yrsi]

This video was very helpful, thanks!!!

[Mann]

I pulled my glute last night at lax practice and I have a game tonight so I hope this helps

[devonpeters]

I’m training for my first tri. It’s scheduled to take place in around 3 weeks. I pulled my calf on Monday. Do you think it’s safe to continue my swim workouts while it’s recovering?

[AlakzandarBlack]

I was rock climbing when I did mine (it wasn’t a giant cliff type rock so we didn’t have any gear on) I pulled my self up with my arms and I never use my arms normally and we had to leave because I was in so much pain. It’s on my right shoulder but it’s starts at my elbow, goes up my neck, slightly down my back and into my right boob 😒 damn this is painful. Btw I’m 14 years old and I was climbing the rocks with my younger brother
