Subject: RE: training with PF I continued to train with it, but ensured that I did not run on consecutive days.
FWIW: I tried everything to get rid of PF. Ceasing to run wasn't exactly a cure, either. What I have noticed is that I've recently cut back on cycling and incorporated more calf raises and running into my routine, and for some reason my PF has disappeared. I have been pain free for several weeks now, and I'm elated to be able to run 7 miles without pain in the days afterward.
Strangely, my PF suddenly appeared about 6-8 weeks after I quit regular weight training in 2006, which included calf raises. When I told my PT about this, she said she wasn't surprised. Whatever the case, my experience has shown that there is some connection to the strength training of my calves and my PF woes. Edited by betyoursilver 2007-08-22 1:29 PM
