    Travis,’

    Any recommendations for supplements during the healing process? This is my second avulsion fracture of the talus in the past five years and not trying to have a third occur?
    Thanks,
    Brandon

    Hey Eric! I too love my slides due to the easiness and confortabiltiy of them. An alternative I’ve thought of (disclaimer I haven’t done it yet, but plan to) are to buy slip on vans. I find vans extremely comfortable and as Kelly has talked about before they are a good casual shoe due to the flatness of them and the absence of a raised heels. I feel the slip on slide are just as easy to put on, go with a bunch of stuff, and the best alternative for your feet. They are also around 45 a won’t break the bank. Hope this may help.

    The more I work on the area, I can get a nerves sensation from lockouts when my leg is away from my body. Also, I get this “catching/moving” feeling right in my groin whenever I move my leg out or when I move it forward. Sometimes it’ll get painful after an extension of the hip stretch, but it gets better if I smash the adductor/hip flexor afterwards. What could this be?

    Thank you Kaitlyn for always being very active on the boards. I have felt much better in the past month while focusing more on the spine with the t spine smash used at least twice a week. I’ve also been trying to work on Hip extension which has also helped. One issue I am noticing during this process is that my right medial hamstring will make a “pop” or c”click” sound right behind the knee when I do banded lockouts and especially when i do them laterally. I’m thinking that this may be due to tight adductors because i can’t pin point another reason why. I have never injured the medial part of my hamstring so it is very weird. It doesn’t hurt either.

    I am seeing improvements from what I’ve done in terms of just feeling better in terms of mechanics and every day lie. The more I research, I believe I need to focus more on my back and hips and that will improve my hamstring more than anything else. My biggest issue is I am visually impaired so my head is always shooting forward to see no matter what. Also, the side I injured my hamstring on is the same side I had an avulsion fracture of my talus a few years back and my ankles make a “pop” or “click” sound along with tight calves. The other issue is that my right hip seems to make a “popping” noise a lot which from looking at one of the mwod episodes may be causing my calves to be tight.

    I’m a collegiate sprinter who for the first time in his life strained my hamstring and then came back to soon and strained it again. I’m very scared of reinjuring it because of the process it took to come back so I’m always working on them

    I do the banded distractions and soft tissue work before I go to bed

    Hey Kaitlyn thanks for the response! I’ve been working on the area with banded distractions and soft tissue work daily. I’ve also been getting scraped at least once a week to help loosen up the tissue as the area was very stiff. I’m trying to figure out what the issue is at the moment. Sorry for the late response!

    I’m sorry for all the questions but I have a few more. Could a tight piriformis be the cause of amstring strains? Alos, How many hours in between soft tissue sessions and my workout if I do one beore and after? Thanks again

    Could I do 30 minutes a day of mobility work if I work on my calves and then hamstrings?

    I had the trigger point foot roller and lacrosse ball I’ve used on my feet. Also, The posterior tib issues I constantly address. I’ve tried addressing my calves and ankles with some improvement. I’ve also had a history of low back pain in the past. I also have collapsed arches which i have never been able to seem to address.

    I have extreme tight ankles and calves and have always struggled with posterior tibilais pain from overuse. What do you mean by supervito?
