🏃♂️ RUN SMARTER. NOT JUST HARDER.
The longer your foot stays on the ground, the more we need to look at what’s happening with your running mechanics.
Dan Marchese | Ultra Athlete & Coach makes a great point here. 👇
If you’re dealing with knee pain, hip discomfort, or even low back pain while running, your stride length could be part of the problem.
Overstriding can increase braking forces and change how your body absorbs load with every step. That means your running mechanics might be worth evaluating before you keep pushing through the pain.
The goal isn’t just to run more miles. It’s to move more efficiently, build resilience, and keep your body performing at its best. 💪
Small changes in mechanics can make a big difference.
