💥 SHIN SPLINTS REHAB 💥

‼️ Shin splints are very common among runners and athletes who spend a lot of time running, jumping, or simply being on their feet. The pain is typically dull in nature and can occur along either the medial or lateral side of the shin bone.

💪 There are several factors that can contribute to shin splints, but one of the most common is an increase in training load or intensity. This can irritate the tibia (shin bone) and overload the surrounding muscles, leading to pain and inflammation.

💡 Here are some of the strategies I use to reduce shin splint pain with my patients:
1️⃣ KB Foot Lift Ups with Hip Flexion (Dorsiflexion through Full ROM)
2️⃣ Miniband Lift and Turnout (Dorsiflexion + Eversion + Hip External Rotators)
3️⃣ Miniband Inversion (Posterior Tibialis / Calf Work)
4️⃣ Miniband Dorsiflexion (Dorsiflexion + Isometric Control of Eversion)
5️⃣ Ball Squeeze + Alternating Heel Raises / Toe Raises (Dorsiflexion + Plantarflexion + Post Tib Control)
6️⃣ Bulgarian Split Squat Jumps
7️⃣ Alternating Double Leg Hops + Single Leg Landing Drill (Improves control and awareness during jumping and landing mechanics)

📍 These strategies help improve tissue capacity by strengthening the muscles that surround the tibia while allowing for a gradual, graded progression back to running and jumping. This prepares the body to handle load and reduces the risk of future injury.

🚨 Injured? Read this! 🚨

When I ruptured my Achilles tendon, I thought I could “out-discipline” the injury. 💭
I couldn’t train like I used to, so I figured I’d take the opportunity to lean out.
I cut my calories, tightened up my food choices, and treated my nutrition like a cutting phase. ⚖️

I assumed that injury meant inactivity, and inactivity meant I needed fewer calories.

What I didn’t realize (at that time) was that healing is one of the most metabolically demanding things your body can go through.
I was starving myself right when I needed fuel the most. ⛽️

The turning point in my recovery wasn’t a new rehab technique or some fancy tool.
It was the moment I stopped trying to restrict and started trying to support by shifting to a maintenance phase in the RP Diet app.
That shift from control to care & app based feedback and accountability changed everything. 🙌

↪️ I will share a discount link for in my stories if you’re interested in trying this amazing app!!

Anyway,

If you’re injured right now and tempted to cut calories or “tighten up” your diet to compensate for less movement, I get it. I’ve been there.
But trust me your body is doing some of the most important work it’s ever done.

It needs fuel. 🍽️
It needs protein. 💪
It needs you to show up and support it, not punish it ❤️

Let yourself heal.
Eat enough to rebuild.
You’ll be stronger for it. ✨

⚠️Struggle with stiff hips? You’re not alone!⚠️

😒 Hip stiffness is one of the most common things we see in the clinic and it can contribute to issues like piriformis syndrome, sciatica, low back pain, knee pain, ankle pain, and overall movement limitations.

🙌 Here are 3 hip mobility staples you can start incorporating to help those pesky hips loosen up!

These movements target hip internal and external rotation, hip abduction and adduction, and hip extension and flexion, covering all major hip motions.
They also emphasize strength and control within your mobility, which is the key to actually unlocking your hips instead of just stretching them.

1️⃣ Hip Adductor Airplane with FR on Wall
2️⃣ 1/2 Tall Kneeling Hip CARs to Hip Flexor Stretch
3️⃣ Groin Rock Back + Axial Rotations

👍 These are great anytime, but here are a few easy ways to make them part of your normal routine so you can stay consistent:
☀️ Morning or evening routine
🏋️‍♀️ Before your workout or 🏃‍♂️ cardio of choice
💻 Midday movement snack

🚨 Like these mobility exercises?
You’ll love The Mobility Fix! It is just 10 minutes a day, no equipment required and can be done anywhere!!!

🦵ACL Rehab: Mid to Late Phase Plyos + Strength🦵

🦵After I test to see if the surgical leg is where it needs to be in terms of strength and balance as the non-surgical leg (which I test at 8 weeks then retest at 12 weeks, 16 weeks so on and so forth) I begin incorporating plyos (but still also doing strength work) in my rehab plan. We use VALD dynamo and force decks to do our testing in house.

🦵Personally, I like to do a good combination of force production and force absorption movements (first linear / lateral then I will eventually move to more rotational / multidirectional movements - eventually moving to more single leg jumping in preparation for the athlete’s return to sport). Working these 2 components concurrently allows the athlete to gain confidence and motor control back of the surgical leg before I let them begin running.

🔥This is an example of a rehab day for my patient who is a soccer player 7 months post ACLR with quad graft:
1️⃣ Lateral Rotational Deceleration Lunge
2️⃣ Supine Resisted Hip IR
3️⃣ Hamstring Lean + Lift
4️⃣ Reverse Lunge + Rotation
5️⃣ Standing Quad Couch Mobilization
6️⃣ Band Assisted Single Leg Rotational Jumps
7️⃣ Loaded Nordics
8️⃣ Eccentric Knee Extensions

Disclaimer: This is just an example of what I am currently doing with my patient. She just began rotational plyometrics (you are seeing her first day doing this new training block). If you are wondering if these exercises are right for you, it’s best to ask your healthcare provider!
