    Luke is a Sports & Exercise Chiropractor who has a particular interest in the management, treatment and prevention of calf and achilles injuries. 

    I interview Luke and explore the common causes for this injury and the most common mistakes runners make in their recovery plan.

    Luke also provides his checklist if calf strains are a regular occurrence in your training. We also go through your patron questions including:

    1. Is collagen supplementation effective for achilles tendinopathy?
    2. What is the best plyometric exercise to perform?
    3. Can pain behind the knee come from the calf?
