So I was working on my legs today at the gym (yes! leg day) and I was doing Romanian Deadlifts and my lower hamstring like right behind my knee cap, maybe slightly higher, started to tingle and feel like something was ripping, I also felt the tingling sensation right in the middle of my foot simultaneously.

Anyone ever have an issue with tearing a hamstring or know what it may feel like?

I've looked through the symptoms of what it feels like to tear a hamstring but everything says it will be a snapping or popping sensation.

Should I be concerned that I may have slightly torn my tendon a little or what's up, anyone know?

tearing a hamstring will hurt like hell. u will no it for sure

It wasn't like excruciating but it was painfully annoying enough that I quit the workout after I felt that sensation about 2-3 reps in a row, but I did continue other workouts just fine so idk maybe I was just stretching the hammy's a little too far or something.

But it has done this to me the past two times I've done Romanian Deadlifts. Maybe need to stretch a little better? idk, it's always gonna be in my mind now when doing RDL's

sounds like a pinched nerve

seems about right

i think riebar tore his hamstring, he had pictures up (not sure if its him) and it was all bruised and unable to contract

:/

I'm going to keep an eye on it the next couple of days to see if it bruises or swells up any, that is supposedly what happens if you tear anything back there.
Thanks for the info
