Preventing Shin Splits With 2 Exercises BEFORE you start Walking or Running

This is an Oldie but a goodie.  These 2 exercises are great to start for a few weeks now before the weather breaks.  Try to get to 2 minutes on heel walks (whoa!).  If it burns while you do it you know you are on the right path.  A little burn now can save a bunch of pain later.  

P.S. Look at this dude.  12 years ago!  I miss those shoes!  (old studio)

One extra tip is don't over stride when walking or running.  This means take smaller steps to minimize the impact.  Enjoy the coming warmth!
