Can 5% incline take stress off tibial stress fracture?

Today's episode comes from Jordan, who was watching a video called “Proof you do not have to stop running with a metatarsal stress response”.

Jordan wanted to know, “Do you think treadmill at a 5% incline will take some of the stress off the tibia?”
