Have torn both quads in past 3 seasons.. first time was my non kicking leg took 8 weeks til i could play.. second time round was my kicking leg came back for one game after 7 weeks but could barely kick on it.
Took forever to build it up to full strength again!

Do loads of iceing followed by long, slow stretching in your recovery - goes a long way to preventing future injury. You can progress this to sitting in a position where the leg is being stretched while iceing it.
