Thanks for the reply.

The gym I workout at has a few foam rollers I could hop on. I was reading about single-leg movements for better quad isolation a while back. I've started to doing some bulgarian splits and single leg squats. The only wierd thing I don't understand is that after sitting upright for extended periods of time, and then standing up, the pain is much worse than after a hard lowerbody workout. Anyone have an idea of why this is? Also, would stiff-legged deadlifts be of any help with this problem? I was thinking that they could be beneficial in that they strengthen the hamstrings while providing a good stretch for the lowerback.

Thanks again,

Scott
