Hobbled around barely able to take the two steps up to my front door the last couple days lol. It still hurts today but it’s tolerable. Is it safe to work out?

    I’ve only learned about the last bit of your comment recently. Active recovery (for me, really light cycling or relaxed walking) 5+ hours after a leg session seems to help quite a bit with soreness the next day.

    It takes some discipline because I always want to push in cardio sessions, but it gets rid of my exercise “itch” for the day and increases circulation for recovery, as you mentioned.
