You know the feeling.
You're running down the road and everything is great. The wind is blowing through your hair. Your pace is on point. You feel energized.
Then all of a sudden your shin starts to talking to you.
First it feels a little sore. Then you notice it every time your foot hits the ground. Before you know it, you think your shin just might break in half.
So what's the deal?
Most likely, you have "shin splints."
The main cause of shin splints is your calf getting so tight that it actually begins to stress the muscles that attach to the front of your shin.
The muscles on the front of the shin are reacting to the tight calf, and begin to pull on the shin bone.
There are a few other causes of shin splints, but this is usually the main one.
The good news, is that it is super treatable!
Watch my video and I'll show you a easy mobility drill you can do to reduce shin pain.
