That large muscle seems to tighten to the point of......almost like a muscle failure during runs.  Its the muscle that flexs during heel striking on my left leg.  That little bugger is giving me a serious pain in the A@$ (not really in the butt).  It makes that portion of my lef almost go numb to where, it feels like im running on a prostetic leg.  I stretch and nothing seems to change.  I was fitted for proper running shoes too.  Anyone know what I'm talking about?

That's exactly where my leg hurts when my IT band is inflamed (like it is now). What helps me: Foam roll, stretch, and ice before and after runs.
