When I was a competitive gymnast I constantly got shin splints. I learned that you need to build up the muscle along with stretching. Here is what helped me:
Sit in a chair normally. Make sure your legs are at a 90 degree angle, and without moving your legs, flex your feet. Then, point your feet. Repeat.
