Shin Splints: Beyond Overtraining & Rest - Complete Guide

Unreal Results for Physical Therapists and Athletic Trainers

This episode of the Unreal Results Podcast is all about shin splints. I go beyond the standard causes of overtraining and talk about how biomechanics/running form, nutrition, and even the nervous system may actually be the culprits to shin pain. Dive deep into my multi-faceted approach to shin splints and help your clients, or even yourself, get over this common injury and return to pain-free movement.
