Recovery of Muscles and Leg Bones after Load
Question:
Oleg Sergeevich, good afternoon.
I do kickboxing training three times a week but on other days I run 5 km (seldom 10 km).
My legs below the knee hurt badly, the bone aches and I feel muscle tingling. I don't want to give up training, what do you recommend to do for recovery?
Thank you!

Greetings to you!
If the ache in the lower leg is not the result of injury during kickboxing training (kicks), we're likely dealing with a periosteum. All symptoms you described above confirm this assumption. It's a fairly common phenomenon (I mean inflammation of the periosteum) and often it takes much time to fight with it.
First of all you should pay attention to running shoes you wear. They should protect you leg. It means they should have thick outsole and be with maximum cushioning.
Avoid running on too rigid surfaces. Try to train on natural soft surfaces such as paths in parks, if possible.
Sometimes a consultation of qualified orthopedist followed by prescription of custom orthotics may be required.
If all preventive measures are taken but pain occurs, I recommend you to make compresses with anti-inflammatory agents (gels, ointments) and leave them overnight.

Is it Effective to Run the Same Distance Every Time?
Question:
Is it effective to run the same distance (10 km, for instance) every time at the same speed or should I increase the intensity of training? My goal is to lose weight and stay healthy.
Running and Weight Loss
Question:
Good day.
I'd like to know could I use running as a weight loss tool? I'm 182 sm tall and my weight is 98 kg but my goal weight is 80 kg.
There is belief, for instance, that weight loss is not good for power exercises as muscles grow slowly in case of lack of calories even if you eat enough protein.
- How does weight loss impact on running? Is it possible to both lose your weight and at the same time improve your running results?
- Does weight loss affect my running speed? It's easier for a light runner to run than a heavy runner, isn't it? So, it turns out that a light runner will always run faster than a heavy one, provided they have the same fitness level. Am I right?
FYI: I started running two years ago but I'm running slowly, this may be due to my weight. I run 10 km in 1:05 or within an hour sometimes.
Heavy Legs. What to Do?
Question:
Good afternoon.
My legs feel heavy after 10 km running and it becomes harder and harder for me to continue running. In the result I literally drag my feet at the end of a half-marathon distance, what to do?

Question:
Good afternoon,
How to "feed" my knees in order not to feel discomfort after a long-term running? Usually, I drink BAAs (glucosamine and chondroitin) but the effect lasts 1-2 months only.
