really glad it seems to be nothing.
I know I've said this before, but I don't think my body has ever felt worse. Hips, calves and quads are super tight and resistant despite a good amount of time spent stretching/mobilising.
that's how i started feeling, despite stretching/mobility etc. sounds familiar.
i feel so much better when i don't stretch at all. it's crazy.
i have to try really hard not to stretch my calves/hamstrings. if i refrain, i feel good. if i do it, i feel like crap. it's nuts. i mean i feel good at the time when i'm doing it, but not to soon after, i feel like crap, especially the next day.
pc!
Yeah it is/was super weird. I think in my case it was just too much through the lower body. I walk around in dress shoes for work 90% of the time too and they're super hard on the feet and calves. I'm backing off the lower body work and am going to build back up slowly with way more single leg stuff in the next few months. I feel like my brakes are permanently on with regards to performance especially with jumping and running. If I can sort that out I'll get far more in return on the other end. Couldn't care less what my squat is when that happens too. 
gotcha. it's tricky.
in my case, could be due to stretching too much (in spurts) throughout my life, or just somehow related to getting older. because I do not remember, at all, feeling like this when I stretched say, prior to ~35 years old. heh. now I can feel it just wrecks my legs (upper seems ok), making them weak/tight/achy. it's nuts.. then I stop stretching for long periods, even when i feel the urge, and every day aches/pains just fade away. then once again, stretch, and boom they come back. it's really odd.
as a recent example .. i've been feeling great lately. several days ago, decided to give in and stretch my quads while walking the dogs. Just simple standing quad stretch, not holding it long at all. the next few days, achy knees (lateral knee pain) & my calves tightened up. felt the urge to stretch, made sure not to, and knees feeling better again.
flexibility has always been the big mystery to me. over the last year, it seems that every time i stop stretching, i start slowly feeling better & better.
these last 2 months where i've PR'd like crazy & legs/calves have been feeling better & better, I haven't been stretching at all. If I do a random stretch here & there, I feel it the next day - lingering effects. So I try as hard as possible not to give in and stretch anything.
i dno man it's just weird.
ok just blabbing. ;d
