Brandon:
Bummer that you have had this issue. But I think you’ve handled it pretty well. Sure you could have stopped earlier but this is so common that I rarely see people back off at the first indication of trouble. I’d give it a full week before you dip your toe back into training. If you are already feeling much better after just 4 days that indicates that this was just a bit of overreaching without the desired recovery block afterward. This is not over training or you would not have bounced back so fast.
Try bounding up a flight of stairs and noting how your legs feel. That’s the best test for deciding when to start training again.
