What Are The Measures To Prevent Quadriceps Strains ?

Hi, i slightly strained my quad 6 days ago football training so as told i rested and iced for 24-48hours. I started back training and now there is no pain only when full-on sprinting and full power striking the ball. I can stretch my quad as normal and run 3/4 pace easily but this morning i woke to mild bruising around the sore area, Is this a sign of recovery? I have training tomorrow night what would be your advice? Thanks
