    Default What causes pain in your shin?

    This is in response to a question I got from my request for your most burning questions about off ice training for goalies. Turns out at least one of you gets a burning pain in the front of the shin when you are on the ice.

    There are several things it could be from fatigue of the tibialis anterior to shin splints (don't think this is it) to compartment syndrome. I always like to start with the simple things first and move on from there.

    I made a little video so check it out...

    Thank you Maria! I think I may have the bone block in the right shin, and the left one with pain really doesn't like that stretch/exercise, but I think this will really help. can the knee wall stretch be used for a before game stretch to help loosen it or would there be a better way so it will relax? I REALLY appreciate this, I am going to do this about twice a day 20 times per foot. Another quick question I have; What type of exercise should I do to gain strength in my bfly crawl or push when I am IN my butterfly? If you already have a video on this that would be great! I will keep you posted on the shin!
    Thanks again,
    Rick

    Okay Rick,

    Give it a try - it should not be irritating your left side. Do not force the movement - it should feel more like a gentle stretch toward the back of your calf, not pain in your shin. It would be fine to work that movement before the game as well. Please do keep me posted on how your shin is doing.

    Funny you ask about the butterfly crawl - I was just thinking about making a video of an exercise that I use for this purpose...stay tuned.
    Cheers,
    Maria
