Default LEGS GETTING WEAKER! At what point does "rest" become the problem?

Good Morning Nuerofam!

Hopefully, this thread will prevent me from going to google as that never ends well (anxiety)

As most of you know, i was very active prior to my recent concussion when surfing on Thanksgiving day.

Well, the brainfog and vertigo shut me down about three weeks after my concussion. Since then( for about 1 month), i have been resting more than i ever have in my entire life.

My brain fog and vertigo seem to be gone! But...............

It seems like the more i am resting the weaker my legs are getting which makes me feel as if i am moving farther and farther away from being healthy again.

I know that logically it makes sense that my legs are weak from resting but its a weakness that makes me get scared.

For example, i can do nothing but stretch the day before and then the next morning i wake up with the feeling that i ran 5 miles the day before.

Is this normal?

My suppliments are:

Max muscle Vitacel liquid Multi vitamin
vitamin D
b-12
Today i just started magnesium
Omega 3

I feel like i am on rubber legs 24/7 right now!
