The title of the thread is also the title of a book by Jack Cady whose www.stridemechanics.com website promotes 5 principles of efficient running as derived from watching how elite distance athletes run.I see that there is a POSEtech thread on here
I'm preparing for London Marathon and want to make sure I am running as efficiently as possible to conserve energy and muscle strength.I can maintain the same speed by running a fast pace with a short stride length or by running slower with a longer
I noticed on the threadmill the other day that I tend to left my feet only a little, but I hear people say it's best to left your feet higher. Is there drills or technique I can work at to improve my running efficiency. Who told you that? It's far
is there a style of running that is the most efficient?When I run I try not to bring my knees up too high,take slightly shorter steps and kind of let my legs swing though..once i get into my stride these things just seem to automatically happen
Im confused! My friend says that your lungs are your lungs, and exercising wont increase their efficiency. He says its the heart, as a muscle, that will get stronger and more efficient with exercise, and thus carry more oxygen around.Does that make
That's the question really. Does Garmin Forerunner 405 have a running efficiency index like Polar's Running Index?I like the running index function as it makes some allowance for HR/pace/distance to put your runs in order.cheers
Sounds more mysterious than it is TBH. I used to run in Nike Equalons (now defunct) and I now use Brooks Adrenalines. Now running in the Brooks, I seem to run more quietly than in Nikes. Does that mean that my foot strike is better / more efficient
A good race, well organised start area, baggage very efficient, first 1 mile a little crowded and found it difficult to get up to race pace, however overall a very pleasant run, would definitely do it again,
cardio2. helps maintain weight3. good to do something different from running and becasue youre going faster can do better/different routes! Im sure it will also help with fat burning efficiency also "Im sure it will also help with fat burning
can anybody give me some advice please? when i begin a run, i start to feel an extreme bloating and discomfort. the problem is that because i'm trying to burp, it messes up my breathing patterns. i avoid fizzy pre-run drinkd and such but it does
