Nick RidpathHOST
So I'll go ahead and finish off with this one.
Nick RidpathHOST
He asked a question about what I actually recommend for athletes dealing with shin splints, and this was kind of specific to HYROX.
Nick RidpathHOST
Shin splints in general, we could talk about movement, [clears throat] like movement demands, movement qualities, do this exercise to prevent this.
Nick RidpathHOST
I find so much of shin splints to just be entirely related to load management.
Nick RidpathHOST
So people run too much, for example.
Nick RidpathHOST
Like, if you wanna look up how to program your running volume, look up the idea of acute to chronic work ratio.
Nick RidpathHOST
How are we training? How have we scaled that training more from like a running standpoint, like running, jumping, sprinting, those things typically are what I'd look at with that.
Nick RidpathHOST
How have we scaled that? Have we scaled it in a more intelligent way? And then we can get into some of the underlying movement quality.
Brad WilliamsHOST
First one this week.
Brad WilliamsHOST
I suffer from shin splints and something that I've found that may help others that may experience it, uh, walk around the house or office on your tiptoes.
Brad WilliamsHOST
Um, is there anything else you feel people were experienced while getting fit stage? Um, so with the, with the shin splints, um, a lot of times physios, osteos, et cetera, will, um, get people to do calf raises cause it can stem from, um, weight calves.
Brad WilliamsHOST
So that, that's really good.
Brad WilliamsHOST
So thanks for sharing what's worked for you.
Brad WilliamsHOST
Um, Shin splints are probably one of the most common injuries I see in applicants, especially for those who go from doing very little running to suddenly trying to run three, four, five times a week at a high level intensity.
Brad WilliamsHOST
We get our clients to run three times a week.
Brad WilliamsHOST
but we kind of ease them into it a bit.
Andrea GilliganHOST

Andrea GilliganHOST
This texter, Andrew, has shin splints that have been ongoing despite physio treatment.
Andrea GilliganHOST
So I'm wondering if there's something else that could perhaps be causing them.
Andrea GilliganHOST
Yeah.
Andrea GilliganHOST
Do you recommend I should get further assessment? Would you suggest scans or seeing a sports medicine specialist? Don't know how to deal with it.
Andrew DunnGUEST
Yeah, I suppose it depends how frustrating it is for the individual involved.
Andrew DunnGUEST
Shin splints generally will resolve with rest.
Andrew DunnGUEST
Nobody wants to hear that because if they're a driven athlete, they want to push through it or they want to see can they manage or modify their response to it.
DavidGUEST
Yeah.
DavidGUEST
It's protective against plantar fasciitis, Achilles, MTSS, knee injury.
DavidGUEST
Like it's, it's, So good.
DavidGUEST
Yeah.
