    I am a 50 year old runner who has not had an injury for over 2 years. What makes this more remarkable is that when I was younger I was constantly getting injured. I have changed numerous things to keep from getting hurt. The number one thing is I listen to how my body feels. If something feels tight, or if it feels like there is a knot in a muscle, I am careful and I don’t push too hard. Next, compression is my best friend. My calves seem to be my greatest issue, so I wear compression socks. As long as I wear these socks, I have no issues with my calves. Finally, I warm up slowly, and I try to relax during my warm up.
    Happy Running y’all!

    On the mental health part of illness/injury: As someone with several chronically illnesses and having more sickness days than the average, I’ve made some coping mechanism over the years. 1: I always try to have two hobbies. One that gets me out of the door (sports) on the good days, and one for when my body have a off day and I can’t get out of the door (in my case it’s LEGO and plant care). In that way my sickness day doesn’t feel like I’m wasting time, but more like “hey now I have time for my other hobbies” 😊
    2: I’m doing a lot of stretching and yoga on the days at home to stay in a routine 😅

      This is such a great tip! I took up sewing in lockdown and I can see how I’d probably go to that if I was out with an injury and left with some free time!

    I started running 2 days a week in September. By Feb this year I had joined two running clubs, parkrun every week, running a 5K in 20 mins. Sprinting 6 days a week, not doing any other exercise. Never stretching. Running through fatigue. Groin pain started about 3 weeks ago and I ran through it until I couldn't walk for days, heartbroken. 9 days off and felt better. Ran, no pain, nor after.. but ran again the next day, and woah, injured again but 10 times worse.. ran through the pain (never again). Couldn't move for days, limping for the last 10 days but finally feeling like it's nearly gone, finally feeling like I am getting there and god I have learned SOOO much!

    I'm a bit late in leaving a comment on this video, but I actually watched it when it was first uploaded. Back in 2017, I suffered an injury that sidelined me for a significant period of time because I was too stubborn to take a break. I kept pushing myself relentlessly until I reached a point where I simply couldn't run anymore.
    Lately, during my runs, I've been experiencing intense pain in my kneecap. It's a reminder that my pride and ego have started to resurface. Watching this video again serves as a great reminder that it's perfectly fine to take a break, even prior to important events.

    I started doing 3 squats / KM and it helped my IT bands TONS, as well as recently incorporating new exercises coming back from some shin splints. I have promised myself to incorporate them more in the future! What you said about 'something else to look forward to' was so important, but my injury occurred while studying for the bar so that was a big bummer :(. Thanks for the vid, always a joy watching you!

    I only started doing lunges and squats recently during the week, and I've noticed my legs feel so much stronger and I haven't had any injuries after my runs. Strength and conditioning is super important! I should have started a long time ago :D LOVE THE GRIND!

    Thanks for another really interesting video Phily and the free downloads are excellent 👍. I pick up calf strains 2-3 times a year so im well versed on the 'get fit, get injured, get mentally down, get fit...' roundabout! Im really trying to crosstrain and do some strength exercises this year; and even though ive still had some minor niggles ive seemed to be able to return to fitness quicker and stronger.

  • @SuperFuzzyDunlop

    I feel like running form is a big cause of injury among typical amateur runners, not quite so much at Phily's level where they're all so super smooth
    There's always such a wide array of strides at parkruns and local races - thudding overstriders, extreme under/over pronators, runners who insist on a forefoot strike cause they've read Born to Run but haven't necessarily developed the strength calf/ankle strength to do it safely, runners hunched over at all kinds of angles, etc
    For me, I've been lucky with injuries to date, but figuring out to shorten my stride so my foot lands directly under my body and increase my cadence has been so much kinder to my legs/ankles/feet that I can run pretty much every day, and ramp up the distance of my long runs - getting so much quicker as a result. Newer/less committed runners are often unaware of things like this unless they join a club with coaches or specifically seek out running form videos

  • @annestrock4917
    @annestrock4917 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Another great video! I'm at 9 weeks post ankle fracture. I used the fracture boot during strength and conditioning to get stronger and once it was off add resistance bands. Learned alot about doping in sport watching Netflix while on the exercise bike😂!

  • @ER-xl6cs
    @ER-xl6cs ปีที่แล้ว

    Great job, great video, and I love all your videos! I started running 7 years ago at 52, and I have only had one brief period of injury (slightly sore left knee for about 5 weeks). I think this is due to cross training (prevention) and I got over the injury fairly quickly because of rest and gradual cross training until I was absolutely certain I was ready to run again. When I fail to cross train, I just don't feel as well on my runs.

    Oh my goodness thank you. This video is such good timing for me personally its almost spooky. Yesterday I was googling "Can aqua jogging give similar benefits to running?" Because I have two work given RSI leg injuries (one each side of course) from work. And its set my training and fitness back to zero. And I'm really hoping to build from this zero to do my first half in early February. And I'm 62. And I really love running. Love your channel you two!

    Strength training and mobility work are the things that have allowed me to pick up the intensity and volume without immediately breaking down when I started being coached by a superstar. Some of the key things - warm/cool, pre-session activation, introduced by my coach undeniably play their part too.

    I would like advice on marathon training in the heat. I live in Florida and the feels like temps are 100°F. with the humidity. 🥵 So excruciatingly hot. Was wondering if cross training indoors the same way with bike, swim, or elliptical would be as good for marathon training in addition to or in place of running....?? Once or twice a week in place of a run possibly??
    Thanks for all your videos! You are an amazing runner. I enjoy watching you. Love your humor as well 🏃‍♀️❤️

  • @floracook4803
    @floracook4803 ปีที่แล้ว

    Adding to my previous comment, in Florida the heat is 24/7. We don't get any relief in the evening and morning. Even though the sun isn't out at those times, it's still scorching. You literally start to sweat the very minute you walk out the door. I'm struggling with long runs and sometimes even finishing up my easy runs. Marathon Training in the heat in Florida. 🥵
    Thanks for any advice you may have to offer.🌞

    I recently been out with a stressie. Asked the Run it Threeways boys for advice (mainly from Tom) about dealing with the mentality of being injured. What he said really helped me. ''You're out for the little space of time when you might have 10,20, 30 years of running left''

    • @PhilyBowden
      @PhilyBowden  ปีที่แล้ว

      Foam rollers are great, I have to be honest and say I rarely use mine, but I do get a sports massage once per week which for me is better!

  • @toddapplegate3988

  • @grgr6720
    @grgr6720 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Invest in strengthening and stretching to prevent injuries. Even if you respect the 80-20 rule you will get leg injuries if your core and glutes are not strong enough. 80-20 alone is NOT enough as I thought…
    I learned the hard way with some very “entertaining” sessions of dry needling… Especially the one in my left quad OMG THE PAIN😂😂😢😢

    I've been dealing with shin splints for over a year now and it's so frustrating. I feel like I've literally tried everything but as soon as it feels better and I try to slowly ease back into running it just goes back to hurting again. The new physio I met even said I'm already doing everything she would recommend to do, I'm really losing motivation and starting to feel that maybe I'm not meant to be a runner

    @markbateman9222 ปีที่แล้ว

    Get advice from someone experienced in sports injuries about what form of cross training is not going to make the injury worse. A lot of running injuries (mostly injuries somewhere in the leg) are not really helped by cycling, for example.
    You touched upon this in the video but I was once advised not to do any form of cross training for a few days to kickstart the healing process.
    If you have been off running and cross training for some time, reintroduce running very gradually, small amounts of running alongside your cross training - personal experience here!

    Hi both, biggest question is where did you get the tie dye green and white top? I’d love to get that for my sister who is currently injured and not running. Also spotted the K tape, I thought you weren’t that big a believer in that? Same for foam rolling. I think that those can be quite good for the older athlete along with resistance bands and resistance training.
