Treating Shin Splints: Modifying Load and Improving Mechanics
Scott Greenberg and Doug Adams provide a thorough overview of medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS).
They explain what causes this common running injury that affects the shin area, how to diagnose it, and most importantly, how to treat it.
They debate the best treatment strategies, with a focus on modifying training load, improving running mechanics through gait analysis, using orthotics/shoes, and targeted strengthening exercises.
Scott and Doug share real-world examples of effective exercises and emphasize the critical role recovery plays. If you want to better understand MTSS and learn how to resolve shin splints and shin pain, don't miss this informative and engaging discussion.
