STRETCH MOFO
>>38005567
I DO
unfortunately...nothing. shin splints are your bodies way of telling you youre doing too much, too fast. you need to rest and heal, then gradually begin running again to get yourself used to the impact of running. meanwhile, try swimming, rowing, elliptical for low impact cardio
I had shin splints for about 3 years, couldn't treat it no matter what I did. Still get it from time to time but not so often as before.
I used to play football(soccer) and got my knee injured pretty bad. Didn't run for a year and when I started to kick again I started to have these splints that are motherfucking hell and unconfortable.

Describe your stretch routine. If it lasts less than 5 minutes you're a piece of shit.
Walk around with your toes pointed in the air. When your sitting down tap your feet until it burn and do it a little more
>>38005584
Sitting on my shins like pic related and doing calf raises
>>38005601
tap my feet?
You obviously aren't meant to run
Forget about the army bro
>>38005643
Yeah like raise your toes and keep heel planted. Coaches had us do these for track if we had shin splints as well as other thing mentioned

You did too much too soon and you're running on the balls of your feet. Shin splints is basically tedonitis on the anterior tib. You should be landing with the heel first. Take two weeks break and start again...Army isn't that serious. Just jog slowly too. Also your stretching routine is complete dogshit. You just sit like that and do calf raises. Nigga there are like 10 things to do, but that doesn't fix shin splits however you should be flexible for the military though

What stretches should I do
when u run, land on the middle of ur foot not ur heel & try not to go too fast and over stride same if ur going downhill or up
>>38006322
also, it could be u have no arches in ur foot
i had shin splints and doctor gave me some insoles that helped a lot

>>38006448
I concur
>>38005526
maybe drink milk and take calcuim pills?
>>38006284
This is wrong
>>38006322
this is kinda right. Land on the middle/front of your foot, keep your knees bent and keep a fast cadence. Your shoes might also be a problem
