There is not a definitive answer, as everyone's biomechanics are different and will respond differently to the same exercise. However, some general tips to help prevent shin splints include warming up properly before starting an exercise session, stretching regularly, and wearing proper footgear. Additionally, it is often helpful to focus on quadriceps and hamstring strength, as these muscles are commonly responsible for running mechanics and are often weak in individuals with shin splints.
Am tempted to ask, how often do you jog? Do you do it like 3 times a week, or is it once in a while. I used to experience the same problem some time back. not when am jogging but just walking. i used to walk a lot so when i slowed down for a while the pain started, from my point of view i felt that it was just the muscles that had relaxed quite a bit, and they needed to be exercised again. i could walk and the pain was so excruciating. I opted to start making a few rounds around the estate every so often and i realized the pain was subsiding bit by bit. i also realized having a massage done occasionally can really help ease the pain and discomfort. this is something that you can do for yourself, you don't need to go to hospital to get checked. the muscles just get tensed up sometimes and they need a little tender care.
This can be a major problem and especially if you are jogging on the street or even cement. Normally it is a good idea to jog at the beach in the harder sand when you want to go jogging. Also, you will need to invest in a really good pair of running shoes to help you out. There are many outlet centers around and you can find a good pair of jogging shoes that will help support your feet and legs at a discounted price. I do not see spending hundreds of dollars on the new shoes that have been released when you can go to an outlet center and find great shoes at a discounted price.
To prevent shin splints while jogging, make sure to wear supportive shoes, warm up properly, gradually increase intensity, maintain good form, vary terrain, stretch regularly, and rest and ice if necessary. Consulting a healthcare professional can also help diagnose and address any underlying issues.
There is no one cause or cause number of shin splints. Some people may be more likely to experience them than others due to genetic factors,ependant on how active they are or how often their body is in use. Additionally, some people may be more likely to experience them due to general health problems such as high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
