Physio appointment booked.

Last few training sessions (running specific) have been cut short due to my right leg muslcles (calf and shin) getting so tight I basically have to stop running. This is only after a few km of running!

Never had any issues before, feel like I'm ripe for an injury if I push it too hard. Need to figure it out. 👎

You need a foam core roller to relax the muscles, and/or do some yoga and pilates.

I do actually have a roller, but I don't use it that much. Maybe I should try a roll before a big workout.

I just don't understand why all of a sudden though...😭

the lactic acid builds up and also testosterone doesn't help. a warm pad might

I might try another run tomorrow with a roll before and after. I hope it's something that simple, honestly...

roll after a workout too

magnesium can help loosen muscles as well

Hmm interesting, I'll look this up. Not something I supplement currently 🤔

lack of magnesium is what causes muscle cramps. it doesn’t need to be a regular occurrence in your arsenal, just when you suspect tight muscles. Natural Calm is a fantastic product.

Appreciate the recommendation, Im going try incorporating this when Im doing more running than usual!
