Plan Description

Whether you’re battling shin splints or want to stay injury-free and prevent your shin splints, this progressive 6-week program is designed to strengthen, mobilise, and protect your lower limbs for long-term performance.
Built by Physiotherapists from King's College London, specialists in sports rehabilitation who have worked with Olympians, professional athletes and are embedded in the ultra-running community, it combines targeted tibialis and calf strengthening, glute and core stability, and mobility drills proven to reduce stress on the shins.

This program helps athletes recover faster, prevent recurrence, and run stronger by correcting underlying weaknesses that lead to pain and overuse injuries. Ideal for runners, field athletes, and gym-goers alike.

It’s a smart investment for anyone serious about improving performance and keeping their legs healthy, resilient, and race-ready.

Jim's Gym & Physiotherapy

I’m a husband and father to two young children.

I understand the challenge of balancing training with everyday life and believe every athlete has individual needs.

I coach each person accordingly, never using a one-size-fits-all approach. I thrive on helping athletes reach their goals in endurance and ultra-endurance events, specialising in running, multi-day events, and rehabilitation, while building confidence, resilience, and long-term performance, whether weight loss or the finish line.
