I'm starting the strength training as I'm just getting over my second bout of plantar facilitus in 2 years. Have been rolling a golf ball under my feet and stretching my calves plenty - any more advice to help recovery and prevent this injury in the future??
Any thoughts on the 10% rule? I'm coming back from a stress fracture in my foot this summer. I was running 30-40 miles a week before injury. It will take me forever to get back up to that mileage if I follow the 10% rule. (ok, it won't take forever, just much longer than I want it to, which feels like forever!) :)
Hey Vince - PF needs to be attacked first at your calf. I am guessing that you might have a lot of adhesion, AKA, a knot in that calf. See if you have a very painful spot in that calf and massage it first and then stretch the calf.
Continue this pattern of treatment for a week or so, or until you can get past the calf tightness and begin to feel a burning stretch in your heel. Once this heel stretch is accomplished, you focus on stretch this and you should feel some immediate relief in the PF.
It will take some time to get this stretch, so be patient and do this several times per day versus once for a very long time.
Thanks Lori,
Will look at the B2Rs - do they ship to Australia? - any way, will go for an easy run this afternoon in my Lunas and see how that goes, will know tomorrow when i get out of bed if i have made things worse. Will keep posting my progress for anyones interest, its getting warmer in Brisbane now so i might have a swim afterwards :)
thanks again
