Calves/shins super sore, couple days off to let them recover I think

Shin splints are a bitch. They'll go away eventually but can take up to a few months.

Tbh mine usually are manageable and become pain free within a few days if I let them settle down. Shin splints I guess is quite ill defined, it may well just be bad doms in my soleus/posterior tub. This occasion feels more muscular and less connective tissue to be honest. Fingers crossed.

Again gonna state that Kinesio tape has been a huge help with them.

Today - rushed tired stressed
