Hey there This is john Gibson with Do Performance and Fitness Today I'm going to talk to you about shin splints and how to get rid of them
a couple of years ago I came up with this little technique to treat shin splints and I've been able to get rid of shin splints
within 24 to 48 hours. When I came up with it, literally I want to say I stumbled upon it.
Just knowing what I know about muscles and where they attach and
what shin splints are and how they start and how their formed. I had one person ask me
if there is any way to get rid of shin splints and I gave them this little technique which literally
came off the top of my head. And it worked so I had the next person try it and it worked for them since then
every person that I have try this has gotten rid of shin splints within 24 to 48 hours
honestly I which I would have known this in high school I had shin splints. I remember it took me like 3 or 4 weeks to finally
get over them but within 24 to 48 hours you can get over shin splints using this little technique
all you need is a little golf ball and a little foam roll
All right, to do this technique all you need is a golf ball Just put it on the ground.
And you're going to just massage the bottom of your feet. That's all you're going to do, just put some pressure into your arch and massage around.
What happens is the front of your shin where you get those shin splints, there is a muscle that comes down
and crosses over your foot and connects here on the bottom of your foot. If you have shin splints on the other side
there's a muscle there that comes down and fans out on the bottom of your foot.
By rolling around on the golf ball your treating that spot your going to do that to loosen up any trigger points
in there. My feet are actually hurting right now, so I need this quite a bit.
Massage your foot a little bit after you do that for about
a minute on each foot, all your going to do is come over here to the foam roll
and roll on it. You’re going to start down by your ankle
and massage up your calf, try to put all the weight you can on the foam roll.
Do that for about a minute, then switch sides and do the same thing.
After that you're going to flip over
and you're going to massage, most likely where it hurts
you're going to massage the front of your shin. Just massage up and down
and along the outside of your leg. And again you're going to do that for about a minute or so
on each leg or on the leg that hurts the most. Once you're done with that your done
It takes about 5 minutes or so. Do that once and by 24 hours later the pain will be gone
or almost gone then do it again and the pain should be gone by that point. Try it out
and let me know if it works and I will talk to you later. Thanks
