Runners only want to run and obsess over their miles per week. This results in tissues becoming unbalanced and eventually leads to injury. Shin splints, plantar fascia pain, Achilles tendon issue, ITB pain… these can all often be traced back to overuse of some tissues and not enough use of others. Create straightforward, efficient and practical exercises to help your patients develop well rounded strength with these interventions are easy, adaptable and help reduce injuries.
