My thighs are always tight when and before I run?

Question

Is there any reason why? Because every time I run my thighs are always tight.

Answer 1

Thats why you stretch before you run. If you just run with tight thighs then you might rip or tear something.  

Answer 2

try stretching after you run, or in between runs (if u dont already), it helps to relax muscles and well, stretch them out to be more flexible.

Answer 3

Stretch before you run

Answer 4

You're stretching and warming up so tightness isn't really a problem. Just make sure you don't go all out before the major run because it is just a warm up.

Answer 5

You are running without stretching. First do a little 50% jog. Then do one a few of these stretches. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/stretche... After running, do these stretches again. If you disregard this, it may lead to injury in the future

Answer 6

Answer 7

Its really important to stretch before and after you run or you will get muscle cramps when you start running or be sore after you're done.  

Answer 8
