I’ve be suffering from IT band pain for years now and I kinda neglected it by just not running anymore and sticking to low impact exercises. I would like to one day run long distances again though.
Has anyone here advice on how to overcome this? I’ve watched many YouTube video on stretches and strengthening workouts but I’m not sure if it all work or if some are particularly more effective than others.
Would love some advice.
A good physio will not only massage etc, but should give you a strength/flexibility plan, which ultimately is where the solution will be (building support and resilience). They should also be able to provide some insight into the cause, and hence adjustments in how you run/train that will help as well.
It’s sucky, I know. Good luck!
Thank you! :)
