The #1 SECRET to Treating Shin Splints And Getting LASTING Relief
In this article I’m going to reveal
probably the most IMPORTANT piece of information on treating shin
splints that you’ll ever encounter!
If you’re like most people who are
struggling with shin splints, then you’ve probably tried one or two
“conventional treatment techniques” like icing, rest, painkillers
or stretching (If you’re like I used to be then you’ve tried all
of them, and you’ve ended up FRUSTRATED as hell, and in pain over
and over again).
I can remember when I used to use these
techniques the same thing would happen every time... my shin splints
would get better quickly, but as soon as I got back to physical
activity or playing the sports I loved...
My shin splints would come back with a
VENGEANCE!
I was frustrated to say the least, I
felt like tearing my hair out! It was like nothing I did ever
helped... the best I could hope for was temporary relief before the
next painful flare up.
I remember thinking to myself, “I
guess I’m just stuck with this and I’ll have to learn to deal
with it”.
Let me tell you something...
THAT WAS ALL A LOAD OF BULLOCKS ...
NO MATTER HOW SEVERE YOUR SHIN SPLINTS ARE OR HOW LONG YOU’VE HAD
THEM YOU CAN GET RID OF THEM ONCE AND FOR ALL.
Really.
I suffered from awful shin splints for
nearly 10 years, and now they’re completely gone.
And there’s one KEY lesson that
helped me go from feeling defeated and stuck with this painful
condition to being free to enjoy playing the sports I love and
pushing myself to my limit, without worrying about aggravating my
shin splints. (Sound dramatic doesn’t it?)
And what was that lesson?
Here it is...
Conventional treatments like icing,
rest and painkillers focus on treating the main SYMPTOM of shin
splints, which is pain, but pain is NOT the enemy, it’s a desperate
message from your body telling you that something is WRONG inside!
Let me say that again...
PAIN IS NOT THE ENEMY, IT’S A
DESPERATE MESSAGE FROM YOUR BODY TELLING YOU THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG
INSIDE!
And what exactly is wrong?
That’s a fantastic question...
There are several underlying causes of
shin splints, but since we only have little time together in this
article, I’ll start by telling you one of the most common ones.
Weak or Inflexible Calves
One of the best things I’ve ever done
is make friends with REALLY INTELLIGENT physiotherapists and
podiatrists. As a matter of fact, most of the strategies and
techniques I’ve learned, developed and write about originally
started out as something I learned from them.
When I talked to them about shin
splints, once common causes stood out and that’s weak or inflexible
calves, if you’re calves feel tight, or get tired easily while
you’re running chances are you've got this problem too.
So do some calf stretches and
strengthening exercises. Do what it takes to correct this problem.
It’s one of the main conditions that leads to shin splints.
There are several other common causes
of shin splints... and I’ll talk about the others in a future
article.
For now just remember, the key to
EFFECTIVE SHIN SPLINT TREATMENT is to identify and treat the
underlying causes of shin splints.
And of course, the best place to start
is with the eBook Gary Buchenic put together...
It took him years of trial and error to
really figure out what works for treating shin splints.
Repeat: It took him YEARS!
Years of painstaking trial and error.
Every time he found something that DID
work, he took the idea, refined it, used it on himself and his personal
training clients, wrote it down... then refined it some more.
He collected and organized what he learned and created his eBook, “Stop Shin Splints Forever”.
It contains the EXACT step-by-step
method for treating and preventing shin splints that has helped
hundreds of people get rid of this condition once and for all!
