1.Cut your workouts down to 3 days a week for 45 minutes or less. Walk for 30 minutes on non-workout days. You could be over-training which causes many injuries and illnesses. You can reach fat loss and weight loss goals working out hard in as little as 1.5 to 2 hours total a week.
2. Do daily foam roll massage on your glutes and hamstrings (and other muscle areas as well).
3. Try treatment with ice pad and heat pad, each about 15-20 minutes a day.
4. Go to a massage therapist for deep tissue massage.
5. Be sure to do static stretches after your workouts to bring your muscles back to normal length.
6. Take a week off from working out. You could stay active with walking and other non-workout activities. Everyone should take at least one week off from workouts every 12 weeks or so. Always listen to your body. It will tell you when you need a break.
Finally, you may need the help of a physical therapist or sports injury doctor, if none of these things work for you.
