Bruises on legs after training

[Ch4co]

After training my legs hard the other day. They were quiet sore a few days later, and I have since noticed that I have some bruising on either side of my quads.

Is this normal? I have never experienced it with any other body part

Thanks,

that don,t sound right....you might have torn muscles...is all I can think.....is there swelling or just light bruising?

Possibly a strained/torn muscle, but more likely, IMO, you somehow managed to rupture some blood vessels in the area through your training.

Bump.

Yeah, there is just some light bruising which is starting to go. It did feel a bit sore if I tensed my quads but today seems okay. Wasnt really worried about it but just seemed strange, but then I have been training my legs very hard of late..

Cheers,

This has happened to me, I do bruise very easily thou, I just let the quads rest & then I'm good
