"Here's a drill my coach had me do back in the day: get a fatty broccoli-style rubber band, one that is big enough to give you some resistance for this exercise. Then, while you are sitting on the couch or at your desk at your office or whatever, remove your shoes and rubber band your feet together. Proceed to trace the letters of the alphabet in the air with one foot at a time while you hold the other foot still. Repeat until you are bored out of your mind or your ankles and feet are super-tired. This exercise strengthens the weird little muscles in your foot and ankle; stronger little weirdo muscles means better biomechanics for your stride means less shin splints." Another strange alleged cure.
