Shin splints are common, but that doesnât mean theyâre normal! Theyâre actually the first warning sign of a hip problem, so donât ignore them.
Did you know that stability sneakers create shin splints? You could be a full-foot-function runner with good form, but if youâre in a stability sneaker that doesnât allow for foot mobility, you could begin to develop hip dysfunctionâŚfeeling it in your â you guessed it -- shins. The good news is that shin splints fall into the ache/pain category, which means they can be corrected quickly.

Then we have a case study. Youâll love hearing Nancyâs story â about the cute barista who noticed she was losing weight and encouraged her to try running, about her weight loss journey, and about why she continues to run. When Nancy developed debilitating shin splints and struggled to find a lasting solution, she found #RPF. As is typical, Jessica kept Nancy âin sportâ while she was in "correction." #RPF uses the sport as part of the correction program.
Long story short â Nany recovered quickly. When she came to Jessica, she wasnât sure she could run a marathon. She has run six-four within one year!
