Throbbing sensation in thighs and legs after exercise – what is this?
Question by P: Throbbing sensation in thighs and legs after exercise – what is this?
Hello!!
When I sit down after walking for 30 minutes (medium paced), I sense a throbbing sensation (painless) in different parts of my thighs and back. I don’t know how to explain it, but it feels like a pulse in multiple parts of my lower body.
Exercise/Health/Fitness experts, can you please explain what this is, and why this happens?

its just the blood rushing to your muscles, because working out means you need more oxygen to these muscles to make them function.

It is just increased blood flow to your legs and thighs and possibly your back. Unless it is painful, I believe it is just your body working.
Try doing a cool down routine after walking. Do some slower walking and slow, intentional stretches before you end your routine.
Hope this helps!
