posterior shin splints just does not go away

I've tried- stretching, massage, spa, msm supp, foam roller, glucosamine supp, and taking 1 week break from running/jumping.  Now after 2 days of activity, it is back.
33yrs | 24in SVJ | >45% BF | 227LB | 5'9 | 7'5 reach | 400lb max squat paused | 5'8 wingspan | 26in RVJ

Coming back from 2 years of inactivity!

Goal: Maintain 385-405lb squat while cutting down to 165 LB

Look up the causes of shin splints. See if you have any muscle imbalances, then correct lagging body parts. Perhaps it's caused by certain muscles being tight? Stretch those ones. Or maybe it's caused by a few overractive muscles? Foam roll them.

shins are anterior?

edit: never thought about that type as posterior, more medial i guess, but apparently "posterior shin splints" is the normal term for them. http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_5/196.shtml.

touche, mr. dunk1. touche.

turmeric, MSM.

go to an indian store and get turmeric root, it's less bitter than the powder. WIth powder mix some in hot water, or even simmer for a few min.

MSM has worked great for my knees but I don't think it necesarily helps with shin splits. It works well for joints because joits have a high amount of sulfates (highly anionic compounds), and the MSM suppl,ements that qute directly.
TUrmeric is a great anti-inflammatory. Ibuprofen is a piece of shit.

"Performance during stretch-shortening cycle exercise is influenced by the visco-elastic properties of the muscle-tendon units. During stretching of an activated muscle, mechanical energy is absorbed in the tendon structures (tendon and aponeurosis) and this energy can subsequently be re-utilized if shortening of the muscle immediately follows the stretching. According to Biscotti (2000), 72% of the elastic energy restitution action comes from tendons, 28% - from contractile elements of muscles.
