[FONT=&quot]In the process Ive pulled my hamstrings. Im pretty sure im not gonna start my next cycle till I feel tip top but have I to quit training my legs till it sorts itself out or carry on doin what I can. I dont want to lose the gains I have but dont want to injure myself any more! Im big on listening to my body! any thoughts[/FONT]

yes listen to your body bro. lay off and let those hammies get better for a bit.. it is okay, you will come back

 

[dylangemelli]

the only thought any sensible person would have is exactly what you said and that was to listen to your body... hamstrings are definitely not something to fuck around with and require rest to heal...

This is the hard truth.

What kind of lay off period are we talking about here?
Keep in mind that you are not gonna lose your muscles in a couple of weeks if you make sure your diet is on point.

Rest and recover.

Always rest any injured area and work around it, only doing exercises that do not aggravate it
