Hi
50 year old bloke, does keep fit (circuits), hockey, biking and surfing.
Gave up footie a couple of years ago as hamstrings went a couple of times, apparently – hockey and biking shorten them. As background I’m a very unsupple/unflexible person – can’t touch toes etc. I do warm up before keep fit, hockey, surfing (*but probably should warm up a bit longer)
Now it’s my calf muscles, they go – feels like middle of muscle, lower part, only during hockey so far – but it’s a few times in the last year. Local doctor useless, luckily o another attempt got a locum who recommended a neoprene suupportprene support, which I’ve used on my right leg – that has worked so far. Now my bleeding left has gone.
so
– is it ok to wear a support on both legs during hockey
– is there anything I can do to improve the situation – exercises/stretches etc.
Thanks
