tkd newbie - leg pains normal ??

Ok, i know its only been a couple of weeks of classes, and i consider myself fairly fit for my age

running and stretching is something i have always done.

But i have got a bit of pain right at the top of my legs, its quite painful at the moment even when trying to do a side kick, for example.

Trying not to overdo the stretching, is this just 'newbie' pains do you think? using thigh muscles for kicking, that are not used to being worked .?

Another tae kwon do class tonight - i dont want to overdo it though!



Thanks

Andy
