Shin Stretches

 

Balance yourself near a pole or wall.  Put your weight on the supporting leg.  Now, touch the other foot to the ground, toe first, and pull your rear foot forward just to the point where it is about to move forward.  Hold it there. You should feel the shin muscles elongate and loosen up. Do not rest on your big toe as shown in rightmost figure.
