Hi

Matt

I believe it is a 'grade 2' thigh strain
who diagnosed you of this. What treatment have you had to date?
I want to start training and get my fitness up again. I am thinking of doing some skipping with a thigh compression bandage on, do you think this would be safe? How about cycling?
I don't want to hurt myself again.
If you have had this chequered history with aggravating the injury you really should be getting a physio who has fully assessed your problem, to support you through the rehab period and not relying on opinions over the internet.

2. How long do you think it will be until it is better again? Is there anything I can do to speed up recovery? I have been doing 2 sets of 25 squats each night to rehab it a bit but that's it really.
A program that is tailored to your needs would be best. I couldn;t comment on the training effect of the 2 sets of 25 squats. - taht sounds quite a low intensity but I don't know your problem
