Yesterday was an interesting one for me....Dale, the physiologist, got me to do incline, backwards walking on the treadmill....! I know it might sound strange - and let me assure you I was thinking the same thing as you ( how can u have an inclined walking machine and walk backwards on it!)...hmmmmmmm well there is one here at the AIS and my purpose for using it, is to assist in preventing calf/achilles injuries! After only 30 minutes of walking backwards my calves were shaking as I got off and still shaking at training that afternoon. Today Im really quite sore from the experience, but I am sure next week should be a bit easier:)
