interesting points ,if anyone else wants to uncover avoid shin splints while running try Mackorny Run Fast Blueprint (just google it )? It is a smashing one of a kind product for getting rid of shin splints minus the headache. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.
This was a fantastic video. Thank you! I'm in the Navy but I've never been a great runner. With recent PT test changes I'm no longer able to do the elliptical and thus I want to get better at the regular run. It's been very difficult as I'm flat footed and constantly fighting shin splits and stress fractures. They're very painful!
Thanks a lot for this very interesting video. You went through great length to describe the cause of the shin splint that Bib has, but didn't say a lot about the other kind (the exterior) and how it happens or to prevent it. I happen to suffer greatly from it myself and getting better and softer shoes has not helped. I can see that arching of the foot will structurally rotate the ankle, thereby placing compressive forces on the exterior muscles?
You guys are great. Where are you. Probably a million miles from me. Ive had a pain in my left foot for a couple of years, I think it's some kind of pinched nerve but two foot doctors and a set of x-rays have been useless. Watching this video I was trying out your stretch @6:33 and I noticed that if I switched the pressure from the inside to the outside of my foot while doing this I got a popping sound from the area where my pain is coming from (though it did not cause any pain) and it made me wonder if you guys could figure out what was going on. When I hike (which I really need to do and want to do) it starts really hurting at about the 4 mile mark of an 8 lile hike. If I try and burl my toes when it hurts it burns but if I wait a minutes it lessons and I keep walking. It's affecting mostly the second to smallest toe but when it hurts it's harder to pinpoint because it tends to spread out. I can always feel it but it does not always HURT. It's been going on for 3 or more years and I quit hiking for most of that time because of it and I did not want to make it worse. Now I decided I need to hike for health and hike despite the pain and luckily it's not getting any worse but not really getting much better either though just the other day it seemed to hurt a little less on my hike. Or at least started hurting later in the hike. This all started after not hiking for two years after getting cancer so it was not an acute injury that happened but it showed up gradually after a third hike after a two year layoff. I'm 63. 6'2" and 20 pounds over weight. I was only watching the video because of very mild "shin splint" type pain after hiking sometimes that goes away after two or three days rest. Not serious as far as I know. (I try not to hike if I have any pain at all) I want to get to a point where I can start backpacking again.
I am 64 years old female diagnosed with L4 andL5 Spondylothesis. i am doing the exercises you uploaded since the last six months. i have pain in my left hip and leg and foot. i have alot of neuropathy underneath both my feet. now since a few days i have numbness in my back and buttocks. i have to travel and the numbness increases in my buttocks and back.will you kindly suggest how to get rid of this numbness. Thankyou
Thanks a lot for such a great video! Just would like to hear your opinion about calf compression sleeves and, alternatively, kinesio tapes to prevent/cure shin splints? All the best!
I know this video has been posted quite a while ago... but I’m a tennis player and I just got posterior mtss. I don’t feel as much pain as they describe in the stretches, but when I play and run my inner shin muscle have a burningish pain, but walking is fine. Is there any bandage technique I can use for some relief?
this is a great video! thanks for your help :) - by accident i watched the video without sound from 7:07 and that was quite funny haha! definetly recommend that ;) greetings!
Hi Doctors, Isn't stress fracture similar to other fractures? Would it not swell or hurt a lot if there is a stress fracture? In my case, I find it mildly painful in general and slightly more painful to the touch at a single point in my anterior shin. Am I over stressing that it could be stress fracture?
This sounds like what I'm experiencing, I'm a bit worried because the tenderness is not distributed throughout the whole anterior tibia, it does hurt more to press around one or two different points. Did you get it checked out?
Is it ok to do these stretches before running? Ive read that statistic stretching isn't good right before a run? Thanks for the help your videos are great!! 👍
marty neff warm the body first then do static stretches before the exercise that’s fine but as soon as u start the run before do another small pile raiser
Not sure but it sounds like Jonathan Mann ( www.jonathanmann.net ). He does commission songs. I first heard of him on a podcast I listen to called Sleep With Me podcast.
Evening guys. I picked up shin splints in the military. I have had x rays taken and have 3 hairline fractures on each leg. I have the shin splints on the inside. How can I get them stronger, pain free, and what are some things I can do to build the muscles around them stronger? I have heard and seen people use wooden poles on the shins, metal pipe, rods, and they rub the pole/rod against the shin. I am looking for something healthy and safe. Thanks
So I can't tell if I have a shin splint or stress fracture, because it seems like a little bit of both, but I'm in the DEP for Marines, and we have to run for like almost 2 hours, jogging, and some sprinting, on every monday. I really don't want to miss it, especially after I prioritized a school competition over a poolee function. If monday is the only day I run in the week, would I suffer any consequences?
I pop/ crack my knuckles but one day I can't pop my middle knuckle anymore all the rest no problem the middle right one won't any more and hurts if I try but I feel like I need to pop it can't it just won't. have you heard about this before I just happened about a moth ago. Thanks
You guys seem to be very experienced at your trade, however, the best examples can be better illustrated if you both wore shorts. Pulling up on a pant leg and letting it fall back down does not properly show your audience which muscles/tendons are being worked. Forget about dressing up for the office, dress up for a work-out. Thanks
