Whoever PM'ed WW7 with that, don't be afraid to post here on the board and share the knowledge! We won't bite !I got this via PM so I thought I would add it for further comment and insight.
In regards to your thread on shin splints, some poor advice was given and I thought Id jump in before the situtation got worse. Yes, toe raises are great for shin splints, but only as rehab, not for treatment. Shin splints require cryotherapy and the best form of cryotherapy is an ice massage. Take a paper or foam cup, fill it with water and freeze it, when its frozen, remove it and cut the cup away by 1/2 so its half ice, half cup. Use the remaining piece of cup as a handle and rub the ice end superior to inferior up and down the medial tibia. Do this for about 15-20 minutes or until the ice is gone. This is the best treatment for shin splints because it relives swelling and pressure, suppresses inflammation and removes all synovial swelling in the area. Shin splints is nothing more than an irritation of the synovial lining and inerosis membrane of the tibia and fibula. If it worsens, it can lead to stress fractures or the dreaded compartment syndrom, which requires immediate surgery. Do this ice message after your cardio and you should, in a week or so, be pain free. Best of luck with them.

Well I'm wearing cleats for football, and as you can imagine, they don't have a huge difference among them, like running shoes... But I did get a Dr. Scholl's insert for them just yesterday, and I plan on seeing if that helps any tonight... But I'll consider looking at the different running shoes, as I run a lot of sprints and stuff w/out cleats... ThxWouldn't hurt. Have you tried different shoes? The type of shoe used when you run can make a huge difference. Might want to do a search on shoes and shoe types as well as running preference (ie the way your feet strike the ground when you run).
A lot of it depends on how your foot hits the ground, how your foot laces out, how flat your arch is (or how high it is)Well I'm wearing cleats for football, and as you can imagine, they don't have a huge difference among them, like running shoes...
