          I have heard that calcium pills work really well for preventing shin splints. ive always had shin splint toward the end of the season(when we have important meets). Does anybody have an experience of taking calcium pills and work for you? or reverse? And is there any particular brand of calcium pills that are economical and effective? Thank you for your help in advance.

          I’ve never heard of CA+ pills being used for that specifically. While taking them certainly won’t hurt, I don’t think it will solve your problem. I’d stick to foot and ankle strengthening exercises as well as checking for any mechanical problems you may have.
