[QUOTE="Kathar1na, post: 1104384, member: 15378"] Hi [USER=104705]@NerdGjerd[/USER], don't get discouraged by the naysayers 😉. Until very recently, I would have said "nay" to stretching exercise, too. Camino walking is, after all, only walking. I've never stretched before, during or after walking on Camino. Nor on other long day walks or hikes, whether flat or up and down a mountain. However, it has become painfully clear to me recently that daily stretching exercises can be very beneficial for ageing bodies, i.e. those with threescore and some years on their backs, and for overall health and well-being. I still loathe it but I am now trying to do it daily. The kind of exercise that others have already described. As to preventing shin splints I don't know any specific exercise. I got them badly only once, on the treadmill, after having bought a new pair of jogging shoes. I binned them and never went back to the shop that had advised me to buy that model. [/QUOTE]
