Lovely new shoes but I can't use them because I'm still getting Achilles pain Is there anything more torturous?
New trainers but no running :-(: Lovely new... - Couch to 5K
New trainers but no running :-(
Oh, what a shame
Same happened to me... not achilles pain but new trainers and couldn't use them. But I got better and they are getting nicely worn in now. Hopefully you won't have to wait long.
Feel your pain mate, I've been crocked with a messed up pair of Achilles' tendons since July 9th and I feel like all the good work I did over 9 weeks is slipping away.
I'm trying to strengthen my legs though with non-Achilles affecting exercises such as using the quad and leg curl machines at the gym. Apparently strong legs = fewer chances of injury.
Same here, bought new shoes trying to think positively, think its made me more frustrated. Have taken to the gym and rowing, cycling and some weights with a Torso Rotation machine thrown in. One of the Gym staff gave me a medicine ball the other day and said here bounce this as hard a you can, 5Kg ball gives a heck of a good workout and boy oh boy did it help get rid of some of my frustration. So I have found another exercise which has no impact on PF Hope your new shoes get an airing soon, take them for a walk first perhaps.
