      I focus on low heart rate, breathing, and my sensations with the ground. When I factor all of those, running feels effortlessly.

      Not wearing thick padded shoes. Ruins the entire bio-mechanics of the body and practically forces heel striding, which is not the natural way of running and walking. It ruins the technique, weakens many muscles, messes with mobility and of course leads to injury.

    Runner since 1994. As a 53 year old runner, I can appreciate these tips. The only thing I can say is running is not effortless but full of efforts to stay injury free and motivated. Health and mobility is my reason to continue my running. Thanks for your content! 👍🏻

I’m 73 and all your tips in so many videos made me transform my running style to really enjoying my runs finally. Actually, they are walk runs now and those little breaks help me stay in the groove and prevent injuries and more importantly it’s during those little walks I hear and feel nature all around me here on the Isle of Man.

    Hi. I am going to start running to lose weight. I downloaded a running app to learn to run and enjoying your videos. I lost 70 pounds from walking and would like to start running. I plan on starting tomorrow. I am learning the warmups and tips like drink water, which I do well, electrolytes like potassium and salt, lots of fruits and vegetables and avoid fried, processed and excessively salty foods. It is 8 minutes after midnight so I will get some sleep. I will keep my motivation.
    I suffered with depression most of my life and was addicted to self harm. I am living a much different life, one that I'd never thought was possible. I am learning to love myself and heal. I hope to continue to thrive and learn to run and find purpose and set and achieve new goals. Walking has changed so much in my life. My depression used to keep me in bed. Now I walk an average 3 miles a day. Now I want to challenge myself to run. I want to eventually join a running club in my city and enter a 10k.

    I came to these same (similar) points years ago but could never explain them this way. I couldn't get more than a mile before my knees would start acting up and swell. I taped the soles of my shoes to see what I was doing, heel running. So I went completely barefoot and that let me feel exactly what was going on and how to fix it... although it took an entire season I can now run for many miles with zero knee issues, faster and smoother. The main key for me was getting the strike from my heel to midsole by shortening my stride and upping the cadence accordingly. Although it's not easy for everyone to run completely barefoot due to running surfaces I just chose a park that I could alternate grass and fine gravel and I was fine. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to really get a feel for what's going on.

    One of the most humbling experiences I've ever had was getting a gait analysis from a physio. I'd been running for decades & figured I knew what I was doing. Uhh, nope. I was a disaster! My single-minded focus on getting my cadence to 180 left me with a "stulted, shuffling gait" (not my words). I've been trying to improve ever since. It's still very much a work in progress... Thanks for the video.

I don't want to over-stride & heal strike, so I still think about my feet landing directly under me, but focusing on a number is not helpful. Beyond that I think about getting my knees higher in front and more of a leg-kick (90 degree-ish) behind. I should go back one day to get another gait analysis, though, to see if anything I'm doing is showing up on video(!)

    Good tips, I think Abs are the main synchronizer of all the movements, upper and lower!!! We always talk about Abs strengthening but not how to engage them when running. When engaged , you have more power to move your legs and arms! Just like kick boxer’s knee kick! To give it more power, they use their core muscles to lift the knee up, much more powerful kick. Same thing in running, you have to use core muscles and feel their engagement! 👍🏻🏃🏼‍♂️☀️

Anyway, I went to Academy and bought some Brooks Tennis shoes for like 150 bucks!!! So, I jogged/walked for about 15 minutes. Not much, but, it was a start. I intend to start running again, looking at this video gave me some great tips I intend to use, So again, thank you!

  • @cannibalmanimal2336

    Leaning always implies being supported, falling always implies motion. Running is falling forward while changing support to maintain said fall. The more we fall the faster we go, but the smoothness comes primarily from changing support at the right moment once the hips have passed the foot (point of support) & having the foot on ground is no longer useful. There’s a perfect point at which the given fall angle, cadence, & moment of pulling the foot up intersect & it’s effortless & elegant.

  • @CleanCutt

    who would have thought that running isn't as simple as donning a pair of running shoes and off you go. There's technique to it.
    Your foot placement ... how to breathing ... posture ... of how you hold your head ... leaning with your upper body ... your arms ... and lower body. I love it. I've been running every second day for the last 5 weeks now and can honestly say it's been a struggle. Will my endurance ever improve ... well ... I intend to persevere until I can run 5kn under 30 minutes. I am 61 and look forward to my first endorphin rush. I hear it's better than sex!!!!!!!

      Practice practice practice… I was out of running for a year due to a runner’s knee or ITBS. Changing completely my running gait and strengthening the core helped me overcome and hopefully start reaching PB’s soon. Basically I did all what is said here. When changing your running style focus on 1-2 things at a time and don’t try to do them all at once. Also don’t listen to podcasts or something that might distract you. You basically have to learn to run again! So crazy but so true

      Go for strength training. 4-8 reps per set, longer rest period between sets, like 2-3 minutes. Last reps should be challenging but stille have room for 2 if needed to avoid failing if not assisted and injury.
      Don't overthink it, stick to free weights and basic movements, ignore fancy, complicated machines. Aim for the big 4: squats/lunges, deadlift, bench press, military press. Include some rows. Add some complementary exercises such as skull crushes, biceps curls, rear delt fly, calves raises. And, no, not need doing them all in one session.
      A good warm-up and good form is a must.
      Dont forget plyometrics. They build enormous power and explosion

  • @Raucherbeinknacker
    @Raucherbeinknacker 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hip movement, rolling of the pelvis is a major thing! I isolated the hip rolling while leaving my legs as passive as possible and only ran out of the pelvis, so let's call it pelvissing. After I left my pelvis passive and ran only out of my legs, let's call it leg scissoring. This is like an extension of running ABC. You can either train the specific muscles involved in each aspect and you can play with both. First I straightened my lower back by moving my pelvis forth a little. Cadence went up from 160 to 170.
    But when I increased the rolling of the pelvis cadence went up to 180. And advancing the timing of hip rolling let the legs swing easier so the heels came to fly. I wondered why my feet kept low and I felt that it was due to my quads, they were still contracted and didn't let the heels go off. Changing the hip rolling changed all the dynamics!

    1. Do Patrick step ups
    2. Increase ankle flexibility where you can squat ass to grass and stay in that postion for a very long time
    3. Strengthen your tibialis
    4. Its true the less time your foot is on the ground the more force you can create. However many non-athletes cannot explain this. Most of your leg muscles relaxes and is less tense while in the air and comes down. You tense your muscles on the impact to the ground to create the force for the movement and lift. This is what is taught through martial arts to create a powerful force while keeping your stamina. Same applies in most sports.
    5. Yes workout your core
    6. While the arm movement is swinging back and forth the movement sync comes from hips and shoulders. Your hips and shoulders swing opposite directions does not have to be dramatic but if done right the whole motion will allow your arms to swing with minimal energy! Similar physics concept from 4.
    Bonus tip learn to run without shoes on all different surfaces, grass, beach, concrete, gravel etc

    Chi Running and the Pose Method point out these things as well. Implementing them is the difficult bit. Although I just run for fun, I’ve increased my cadence and reduced my ground contact time (according to Garmin Connect) but I’ve got an arthritic knee that now causes my ground contact balance to be way off (it was 50/50 not long ago). I also pronate excessively which I’m trying to fix. I finally invested in NURVV insoles which confirm the pronation (and my belief that I am a midfoot striker). I’m currently working on “line of sight”.

    I was in Charlie battery, 1/1 Air Defense Artillery, 31st Brigade. That's a running battalion. I was in Patriot; a 14 Tango.
    A tip from me:
    Run with an Olympic gate;
    Avoid running flat footed/run on your toes;
    Curl your fingers but do not make a first;
    Exhale for three footsteps and inhale for three footsteps;
    During exhaustion, breathe deeply about every minute to regain control of you 3 footstep breathing rhythm.
    Run with your head erect.
    And when running long distance, stare off in the distance, and continue to move your feet.
    Trotting is slower than a job, and is bad for your knees. Jogging is slower than a run, and is less bad for your knees. Running is slower than a sprint and hardly damages your knees. Sprinting is faster than a run and is good for you in every way.

    One biggie more than a few runners, especially new ones can work on is minimizing vertical bounce which is of course, wasted energy. My running coach would have us run next to a wall with a line and yell at us with all sorts of colorful insults if we bounded too much!

    #gtncoachescorner Hi, I'm coming back to running after almost a three-years-long health break, during which I could walk a lot and bike a bit. Is my aim of running a half-marathon at around 2:30 in April realistic? My weekly load is currently 13 km spread over fast, slow and long runs. Having first run erratically, now I'm following your advice from the channel. That is increasing the distance methodically by at most 10 %, running a day on a day off, with a warm up, warm down and a good stretch each time. My current pace is 9:16 min/km on a fast session, and I was able to knock down two minutes since September, effectively by walking less. While prioritizing health, I would still like to achieve my goal. Is it possible at the age of 46?

And how and when should I run tempo/sprint in those days .Should I take a break during the week? Or run for each day of the week. How can I prevent injury ________ and my goal is to increase mile pace,

  • @alfrescodingdong7430
    @alfrescodingdong7430 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Only problem is this, if you’ve passed your 30s your natural running style is the most efficient for you. In many cases, the more you try not to run in your natural style, the new style may end up being the style that uses more effort. This is because you will have to check yourself, adjust yourself, calculate how you have to land etc etc. I’d prefer you train in your style with little changes as possible over time, doing a lot of miles, in slow speed over time to tweak it. There are people who will do everything right and get the rewards, but there are those who work hard in their own way to achieve the same. Unless you’re in the Olympics or world champs.

    I am training for my first marathon and I really don't understand how to increase my cadence without simply running faster. The vast majority of the runs in my training call for fairly slow pacing, so how do I run slower but still have a 170+ cadence? My average tends to be more in the 150-165 range.

The worst Couch Potatoe has better posture laying lazily ...It is vital to have an excellent Coach training posture and technique first before anything else. As BAD Posture becomes impossible to ever correct. A false sense of heroism then enduring PAIN - from BAD posture ruins any progress. ...
