182. I've torn my calf...now what?


Last week I tore my calf and so I thought I'd take you through the physio's guide to identifying and rehabbing a calf tear. The to-dos and not-to-dos which you can try out yourself.

This ep covers;

- calf anatomy and role in running

- risk factors for calf tears; types of movements and sports

- isometrics, strengthening and stretching guide

- plyos and return to run

- prevention and advice to the non-injured runner
