Proper Running Form | 3 Holistic Tips To Run Faster

This is an exceptional explanation of the form. I've heard others talking about it but it never clicked as much as when heard you speak about stride, stride rate, and what goes into faster running. Thumbs up 👍👍

I like the “Don’t Do That”… you like to be clear and we appreciate it

This is a great information. Biomechanics and biochemistry all together. Thank you so much!

Fellow runners, I just improved my average pace with 40% I literary felt better in my legs and overall body.I actually felt lighter.Your posture does matter🎉🎉🎉 Thanks for sharing your knowledge 🎉❤

as a new runner, this is more clear and newbie friendly explanation, to an advance topic. so much knowledge gain in this video. thank you so much.❤

The ideas about the heel strike being a breaking force only if the muscles are contracting is really interesting! - 5:00 The idea of falling makes a lot of sense as well as it fits with dropping in the gate cycle. The comment on the foot needing to be underneath you before you fire it is spot on. The ground reaction force has to move behind the hip (instead of being in front of it) to push you forward and this change happens when the leg is under you. Firing the leg just after the GRF moves behind the hip should speed you up (assuming you are not already doing it.) 6:37 - popping off the ground because you produce force quickly - like hot coals. Not convinced you can actually land in mid foot (unless you have a dropped arch), its more likely a heel strike fractionally before you hit mid stance and it just optically looks like you land in mid stance. This has the advantage that no time is lost dropping the toes and you can go through a full arc in toe push off (which you can't do if you land on your forefoot as the heel is up and so you only get a partial arc in toe push off).

I like how simple and effective and genuine your presentation of the video is. Thanks

This is one of the best things I have listened to all week!

The last 6 minutes were exactly what I was looking for 🙌 so helpful

Great tips and video, thanks coach ! Ah! Btw if possible i would like an exclusive video about improving GCT, you gave the basis or fundations we can work on it on our own (first improve strength then increase the rate at which you use that strength) but specific exercises would be awesome.

One of the most nuanced videos on the topic

Great information . Thanq

High quality content!🏃👍

I’ve been only able to run a mile then I experience a lot of pain and discomfort to my ankles and shins. I believe I am striking the ground way too hard… any idea how to fix this?

Amazing video! Learned a lot. Just want to ask: I'm a beginner runner and want to improve. Will your book help me create a training plan for myself? Or it will be too complicated for someone like me? For context, my PR for 5K is 24mins and 50mins for 10K. Currently training for a sub 1:50 half marathon. Thank you!

i just got a heart rate moniter and was wondering if you could make a video about heart rate zones, what to look for/ what’s too fast

Andrew, always a great video. Seems like 40 strides a week and heavy squat/kettle ball calf walks should also be a recipe to reduce contact time? Thanks.

Liked the video! Very well explained. A note on 180 Cadence: that depends on pace. If you run slow for training why would move legs as fast as you run fast? The 180 cadence should be linked to the speed also... what is minimum speed to have a 180 cadence? Personally i do not know or care. I listen to my body and i have a more important thing to keep track my heart rate. I am doing ultra maratons in mountains. Very well you mentioned that is another game where you do not want to move very fast off ground. Ultras are learning to maintain your energy for very long time. Anyway good video. I listened to these in past but you reminded me of few things. There are simple concepts but i like you insist on them. It is easy to miss the important stuff. Thanks!

I am pretty interested in running form. I am quite interested in dorsiflexion of the feet when hitting the ground. It seems that is pretty crucial. I always let my feet relax when touching the ground before. I am curious what you have to say about that. I am now doing ankle dribbles to work on it. I think it creates more of an elastic. I am also curious if you have to pull your feet horizontally, you know how you ride a step with one feet on the ground pulling you along on the ground. If I do that when running I feel my glutes far more and this is one of the first times I felt them when running. Which is a good thing I think. Or does that mean that I still land too far forward? I am normally a forefoot striker.
