In science, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object.The law of conservation of mechanical energy states that in an isolated system that is only subject to conservative forces the mechanical energy is constant.n science, mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy. It is the energy associated with the motion and position of an object.
As with the standing shin stretch, the cross-over stretch is well-suited for pre- and post-running stretching. You can perform this stretch with or without shoes. Start standing with your feet together. Cross your right leg in front of your left leg and place the tops of your pointed right toes on the ground.
Perform exercises regularly to discourage the tightness that can cause shin splints. Stretch your Achilles tendon by standing on a low step or the edge of a platform at the gym. Hang your right heel off and allow it to dip toward the floor. Stretch your hamstrings by lying on your back, right leg extended on the floor.
