Rest it or Stretch it???
My left hip is killing me. I am limping. Yesterday I did a group strength class with it's share of squats and lunges, plus a group kick class. I was fine until my trainer tried to kill me this morning. Lots of squats and lunges again.
Should I take tomorrow and rest my hip a bit before I meet with the trainer again on Thursday, so should I go to a yoga/pilates class tomorrow where I would get a lot of muscle stretching?
TIA!

I'd rest it. After years of inactivity, your hip is pissed at you. You have to ease in to activity.

I wouldn't go to pilates if my hip was hurting. You can stretch at home. Exercising with injuries is a way to get further injured.
