Abstract

Running sports that are not accompanied by proper warm-ups and cool-downs will result in shin splints. This condition will result in a decrease in the athlete's performance in running competitions. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of exercise therapy for shin splint injuries caused after running a half marathon in the Yogyakarta running community. The method used is quasi-experimental using One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The exercise program is designed to increase lower limb muscle strength, increase Range Of Motion (ROM), and reduce pain levels. Data were collected using the pretest and posttest methods which were measured using VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) for the pain scale and goniometer for ROM. The population of this study were athletes from the Yogyakarta running community. The results of the study showed that exercise therapy had a significant effect on reducing pain due to shin splints with an average reduction of 1.00 in knee pain and 0.37 in ankle pain. Apart from that, the ROM at the knee and ankle both showed an increase in the degree of ROM.
