Pain at the connection between heels and achilles tendon

[akimbo]

Cheers guys,

As my weight has gone up (230 to 240 pounds) and I enforced my calve training I experience regular pain in my feet and achilles tendons. The pain has actually occured in different area, but it has stayed in the area where the achilles tendon connects to the bone of the heels.

It occurs especially in the morning while walking and also in the evening if i put some external pressure on the area.

I have shitty calves and dont want to drop calve training. However I am already using a higher rep approach. Also I consider that calve training is not the only reason for this pain.

Has anyone similar experience? What can I do about it?

Try soaking in epsom salt and warm water to help with inflammation and soreness.

Tendonitis.

Rest, Ice, anti-inflammatory, ultra sound, shockwave, voodoo floss, stretch, etc.

Thanka for your replies. I have ordered the epsom salt. Sounds promising.

No else had these problem while gaining weight?

What stretches are helpful?

Plantar fasciitis. Good luck. Took me over a year to get rid of mine

I had it for 3 months this past winter.
1st set of calve raises after a long concrete season.
