Running technique



Recommended Posts

If you like to run, check out this link on good running form. This has really helped me run without any pain or injuries. I truly believe that us heavier runners really need all the help we can get to prevent running injuries. I've had enough knee injuries to last me a lifetime, I don't want anymore.

Think u meant formerly heavy runners!

Well....less heavy than before. But when I look at that guy on the video, I probably still have 50 pounds on him. But it's getting closer all the time. Still, I doubt I'll ever be that thin. I still have a 47" chest. <flexing>

Hello Guys i think that learning how to run effectively stops damage and improves performance. Speed and stamina are also improved. Many sports require operating, so training proper operating techniques will go a long way toward helping runners.Thanks a lot!!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
