I was diagnosed with a very mild Grade 1 calf tear 3 weeks ago, caused by doing plyometric exercises in the gym (I was hopping on the affected leg). was given calf raise exercises to do which have helped. However having had achilles issues in the past, I've actually always been very diligent at making sure I do heavily weighted calf raises so I was a bit surprised to have experienced this calf tear. Is there any other exercises I should be doing to avoid any further calf problems in the future or is it just a case of being more cautious with plyometric exercises? (55:00)
I have been diagnosed with plantar plate rupture and just waiting for X-ray to confirm if Doctors theory I have osteoarthritis of the hip is correct. I assume with both of these the chance of getting back to running is slim but would appreciate Parys thoughts. I am 64 but was hoping to keep at it a bit longer! (57:40)
I keep getting a snapping noise on my right hip, no pain just sounds like something is catching and from what I've read it sounds like it's External SHS and my IT band is tight and trouble sliding over the femur. What stretches can I do to release this? and what strength exercises can I do to prevent it happening? Anything I should avoid doing? (1:00:15)
