Is this just a product of having weak calves, or am I doing something wrong? I wasn't able to complete the "hopping on one foot in an X" exercise this week with my left leg because of the shin pain. Any suggestions?
Do contrast showers on your ankles.

I did Part 1 of the Insanity workout last night and my ankles were just killing me. After a few rounds of hot/cold water on them for 30 seconds they felt great.
