Hey Divas,
It's my second day of the season skiing and it seems like I'm having issues with my left foot. It's falling asleep BUT I know it's not my boots cuz this is a new problem haha
I have a herniated disc on the lower left spine area and it's generally been under control through a weekly pilates class. However, I have noticed that my left leg/foot is much weaker than right side. While skiing, I can feel my ankle and outer left foot being tired much more quickly and not having as much as when turning compared to my right. On the last couple of runs, I could feel my toes falling asleep.
I'll play with my buckles and I'm sure my form could use some improvement. I tend to turn always to the left anyway as that's my stronger side haha It does feel like my foot is a little bit more swollen though at the top of the base of the toe area.
Any thoughts, advice, etc? Both on how to keep this foot awake for the next 1.5 days skiing and how to strengthen this side of the body overall?
ETA: I'm also already skiing in compression socks (CEP, so they fit my calf too)
