This video has completely changed my form. I just came back from a run and my legs would usually be screaming for help, but just by listening what she had to say and implementing it into my run just made it so effortless. Hands down one of the most enjoyable runs I've had and I can say with 100% certainty that what she says is worthwhile.
You don't really fix form...you fix mechanics which results in a more efficient form for you. When people get stuck on the word "form" they can start falling into bad traps like "I need to have a form like runner X". When you focus on the mechanics...YOUR CORRECT FORM will naturally present itself.
She sounds like a great coach with a lot of valuable information! I come from a family of Olympians and there are a few short bullet-pointers to keep in mind: 1. Run loose. Most of us tend to tighten our upper-body (chest) as we run which you do not want to do! Stretch, and "shake" around to help loosen yourself up both mentally and physically. 2. Kick when you run. Watch Olympians do this. They will have a long stride, bending their legs at the knee almost "punching" their butt with their heels. 3. Breathe. Exercise your lungs, let your bottom jaw hang loose, and allow yourself to take in oxygen. Sounds funny but a lot of folks have a tendency to clench their jaw and restrict otherwise normal or healthy breathing
Heel-raise is a biproduct of more falling, which equals more speed since more gravity’s used. Cadence will also increase to keep up w the fall angle so we don’t faceplant. If you pull more than required it’s simply wasted effort
Yes, I agree. She doesn't seem to be adding anything to what a real running coach would tell a person. But on a similar note, you make some very good points and highlight basics which many people don't practice or soon forget. 1. I remember in my earlier days I would try so hard to run faster. And when I say 'try', I mean I'd tense up and try to physically make myself run faster. Not only did I not run faster, I was bloody exhausted at the end of my run (i.e. 7km). It was only when I did the exact opposite, completely relaxed every ounce of my body, every muscle, did I then start seeing massive improvements. Even now, I remind myself during a run to relax and shake out my hands, monitor if my shoulders are getting tight, etc. Now, it's literally like I'm in a state of 'zen' when I'm running. 2. A few years ago I went from focusing on my cadence (not such a bad thing) to focusing on a longer stride length. Personally, I started with my arm swing. Before I had a lower arm swing, whereas now I adopted a higher arm swing (like the elite endurance runners). This automatically translated to a greater forward lean and higher back kick and, faster times. Even now when I feel like I'm tired or not running fast, I end up running way faster than my previous times simply by virtue of a longer stride length. 3. Yes, "let your bottom jaw hang loose". Such good advice. So many times I hear about 'nose breathing' or people running with a tight jaw. It's all associated with relaxing. Open your mouth, relax the jaw, suck in the oxygen (train yourself to belly breathe and with a correct rhythm).
@@thepsychologist8159 hey so do you like breathe in your nose and out your nose or like do u breathe out in your mouth and breathe in your nose how does that work
@@vandaloek0110 Unless I'm doing an 'easy' run, when I do occasionally focus on breathing in through my nose and out of my mouth (but not for the whole run), at all other times I breath in and out of the mouth.
Very very helpful tips for improving my running... I've always had a hard time running and at times suffered from Shin splints 🤦🏾♂️ but now that I know how avoid it, I'm actually looking forward to jogging instead of dreading it 😁
@@maverickl.4814 I tried everything for my shin splints that lasted 1.5 years, not sure how you strike but going from a forefoot to a heel strike cured my shin splints completely
As someone trying to go into spec ops this entire journey has helped me with running correctly, swimming correctly, and my body building split. I thank you!
I know Im randomly asking but does anyone know a tool to get back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me!
I'm running my first marathon tomorrow and this video is what i needed so bad, I have been so lost over my form, the more i try to correct it the harder it seemed to get, thank you so much for this, much love from Australia
This guy is a inspiration, Who else thinks Nick can go sub 3 hours?? He inspired me to create my own content on TH-cam and now I try to inspire people like he does❤️
Yooo Nick, that running form that she was demonstrating in your video WORKS!! I went out for a 20k recovery run, & I used the pull technique she demonstrated, & I ended up mistakenly running a PR on a recovery day. & the best part is that It felt so light and easy. From running a 8:30 min mile 20k pace to a 7:23 min mile 20k pace with just one tweak!!! Thanks a lot for the motivation Nick 💯💪🏽
From my experience Ive been an athlete playing football my entire life up to the professional ranks and about 2 years ago I picked up running and really enjoy it. I’ve tried multiple techniques to run even consulting mg buddies who are avid runners and they told me to find a technique that’s comfortable on my body. But more importantly work on my breathing. After finally learning how to properly breathe through belly and not my chest I’ve been able to run a marathon at 265 pounds.
What I am amazed is how Nick adapts to learning new things even though he's been fit for a long time, during the military and before this. Hooah! Greetings from the Philippine Army, Sir!
I went 8 years without running (still did cardio, just not running), using “I get shin splints” as an excuse. Watching you made me get back into it and start learning more about proper form and training programs to increase mileage. Thanks for the videos. Love your channel
@@Morfeusm so I’m on week 7, day one. I’ve been running 3 times a week. Today I ran 2.5 miles at an average pace of 6:54. My max was 3:43 Ending the year of right 💕
One thing she never goes over I found interesting is how the foot actually does make contact with the ground and the way the structure is made & how the movement needs to be made. She's a badass and I learned so much!! Thankyou for this.
Valarie is the best! She was my instructor at the old school CrossFit Endurance course. Shes super knowledgeable and dedicated to her coaching. She has made thousands of skills and drills videos. If you’re ever interested in learning proper form.. I highly recommend looking her up!
The shin splint is also due to a lot of ankle immobility and not understanding how the foot and toes spread! The angle is a circular motion rather than forward and backward motions!
I tried this on my speed work today 🤯 mind blown. My speed jumped 2mph and I’m sure I don’t even have it down 100% yet. This lady is the real deal. It’s sort of like when I was taught a deadlift is a push not a pull. Weight jumped up immediately. This is gold
Coach Val Hunt’s the best, Pose/RunRX is the way. Committing to digesting and implementing her free advice took me from debilitating pain to forgetting I even have knees, the faster pace w less effort’s just icing on the cake
Not kidding...I just took 1 min 30 off by 5K time today by implementing this video. Felt easier if anything, and for the first time my cadence was at the target turn over for the majority of my run. I'm still slow ofc.
Excellent coach! Those are the best techniques for long distance running. Elasticity of ankles and calves, bouncing on your feet, free falling while running, increase cadence without over striking? The irony is that you naturally do all of these when you run in minimalist shoes or go barefoot. You will need a coach like her if you're going to run in thick cushioned shoes with elevated heels.
Solid episode. The run coaching was brilliant. Try circular tension on the pedal. Everything in this sport is about joint circles and your ability to create force efficiently.
heal striking is seen as the enemy as is it predominantly associated with poor form of extending the leg in front. people might find the pose running method a good resource to look up that's very relatable to whats being seen here
Keep your hands at your quads after you take your final stroke into the wall and as you roll over on your back underwater your hands will naturally fall above your head infront of you. From that position just go into streamline with your arms behind your head and push off the wall with your feet at 1 and 2 or at 11 and 10 (like a clock) depending on which side you flip into.
I believe it will be cancelled. That’s why Nick and the BPN team + Roka apparently have teamed up to do their own marathon. This could be a blessing in disguise guys for the whole BPN team. If this works out you can guarantee they will keep growing it into this huge BPN/Roka sponsored event and it will be awesome. I could totally see that happening. That’s making lemonade out of lemons baby!!!
I love the coaching tips on running, what I've always noticed about long distance sprinters and endurance runners, there are super long distance runners who such a beautiful stride, but it not smashing the ground when they run compared to sprinters who force themselves of the ground. Im not a runner, I hate running, but when it comes to a jog Im all good, but my friends who are use to running always say relax, stop mutten running (smashing the ground). So this video clip is very help full.
I enjoy this guys out put and videos, from a former athlete and guy who just trains, I find it helpful but also motivating to keep elevating my health, which I love and always been another. Thanks Nick Bare. 👏🙏
Thank you so much for this. This has helped immensely. 😊 I've been running for a year and a half now and had trouble understanding why my ankles were not really moving until I did some full sprinting. I was following the instructor and started hopping. Oh my gosh, my ankles are weak! I really think this will help strengthen my ankles more than anything else I've found on the internet. So fundamental! Thanks again! ✌
I like the instructional stuff. I thought Nick had the best running form I'd seen I always tried to think of it when I was running . Good to know there's always room for improvement in even what you think is the top form.
That is one genetically-blessed human being. Regardless of the work we're all inspired to do by his channel, the mass majority of us will never look like him.
Good stuff, lower leg pain sucks. Just starting running again after a few years break and that first mile sucked. Definitely need to make some changes and just continue to run
IMO try counting your stroke from the 5 meter mark to the wall, it ll give you a good idea of when you should be pulling into your flip turn. ideally you want your last stroke to pull into the flip turn. While doing the flip turn I usually have my arms stuck to my body and while flipping kinda "push water to my face" with my forearm and hand to "accelerate" my turn and then push off the wall in a streamline.
I basically got off the couch and ran a marathon last week with no training.... A friend in Austin sent me your videos, they’ve really helped. Looking for a way better result next time I run one
Be sure to count your strokes into the turn. I’m sure she told you that but if you know how many strides it takes to get the other end of the pool it’s one easier to do the turn but as well quicker. With your last freestyle stride you use your arm to do the turn
How the heck does this man not get injured. I’m a sprinter and I’m training 7 times a week and I get injured easily once every 4 months. Nick trains double that and doesn’t get injured. Respect👏👏
Proper nutrition and sleeping are the most important and, sadly, overlooked aspects for recovery. If you lack those, you are more prone to injuries. Also, if you are training the same, you are going to get injured every damn time.
Love the traning..1st or finisher..still your the CHAMP despite of your training decipline,passion,dedication and hardwork, stay safe sir..Godbless you and to your team.

Solid video Nick been struggling with running technique and this was really useful 👌
Ok, now we need to see the "Moon Walk Recovery Runs" next episode 🕺
Nick is the GOAT 🐐
IMO try counting your stroke from the 5 meter mark to the wall, it ll give you a good idea of when you should be pulling into your flip turn. ideally you want your last stroke to pull into the flip turn. While doing the flip turn I usually have my arms stuck to my body and while flipping kinda "push water to my face" with my forearm and hand to "accelerate" my turn and then push off the wall in a streamline.
LOVE the flipturn effort; a hard skill to learn as an adult!
I signed up for her program! I need some of that in my life.
Bro !!!! I’ll quit my job right now and come work with you !!!!!! Let’s go one more baby !!!!! Best owner ever !!! Wow
Wow super interesting video! Full of great tips I’ll definitely apply! Thanks Nick!
Great edition of the IM prep s2 series! Legitly valueable hints and tips!

Be sure to count your strokes into the turn. I’m sure she told you that but if you know how many strides it takes to get the other end of the pool it’s one easier to do the turn but as well quicker. With your last freestyle stride you use your arm to do the turn

How the heck does this man not get injured. I’m a sprinter and I’m training 7 times a week and I get injured easily once every 4 months. Nick trains double that and doesn’t get injured. Respect👏👏

cross training
That falling forward but pulling up makes a lot of sense. I’ll have to try this
no it does not

Yeah I powered through runs for so many years ; now my knees and hips are paying for it. Trying to re learn proper run techniques myself
So glad they talked about heel strike. I was wondering if that is a problem.
great episode, very informative enjoyed watching it, now gotta only implement It into my running. Thank you for the video!
