"The best money I have ever spent. Great mix of humour, practical technique and theory. It’s brilliant and I have been telling all my friends about it. I’ve knocked 30 secs off my average pace to 4:30 and at 53 I’m absolutely astonished how relaxed I feel running. It’s also really helped my cycling my adapting similar techniques and visualisation. Thanks so much."

"Just wanted to say Im 2/3 through your running program and WOW what an insane difference".

”I have done the first two audio lessons now. It's amazing what a difference you made for me. I ran 90 minutes yesterday and have never felt so refreshed both during and after the workout, and then I have never run so fast with the same low heart rate. Thanks for that!!”
Update from a runner after two of the six audio lessons
I can honestly say it is some of the clearest and best instruction I have ever recieved in any topic. After a year of shin splints I went for a run yesterday and was almost in (joyful) tears because I had zero pain, so thank you!!

”I got your online course and it almost instantly fixed my running form. I can prove that by having half an hour faster marathon finishing time.”

"I knew nothing about running other than put one foot forward in front of the other...and fast. Then I signed up for his course. Mind blowing!... and too cheap if you ask me. Totally recommend it."

Did he just say 8 minute mile pace is slow? I quit... 😭
-
literally went through all the stages that you described, when you first talked about how theres no difference I thought "well, thats stupid" but I heard you out and I'm very glad I did. always liked running between jogs because I felt lighter and more free but you made me realize that maybe its because i'm not aligned with my center of mass and im not jogging well. im going to apply what ive heard in this video on my next run. thank you so much!

"He's not going fast, probably an 8 minute mile pace." Aw. It's me. 😢
-
Very useful video, sir.
-
congrats this is the first video in which I see someone getting it right. Tehre are tons of videos on youtube where they want to tell you that joggin is running with overstriding - which it isn't. Nobody should overstride.
-
Fantastic content as usual. I'd love to see you do some reaction videos on bad running techniques on popular runners.
-
Thanks for another nice video! Just wondering, whats your running watch model?
-
Very nice video. I agree with it, and it took me some time to realize it. But few months ago, I realized I can train and improve my running technics while jogging (and at first it cost effort, but then it gets better, and it directly improved when I run faster). It is worth the effort.
-
Just curious do you also do sprint analysis and if so could you explan the diffences between both a bit more in depth?
-
Hey Fredrik. How to book an appointment in Stockholm? I already finished the online course.

I would say the difference is generally arbitrary. But if we wanted to, we could define a specific difference. I believe at slower speeds, the quadricep does most of the work, and at a certain speed and motion, then the calves start to take on a majority of the work load. An exact percentage could be used to define the transition.

Been watching your channel for a while now, and the YouTube algorithm has started recommending “MAF” and “Zone 2” training videos. Just wondering what your take is on all that?

Thanks

When you jog you have (at least me) a slower cadence and a different LSS (lower spring stiffness) and also a different vertical oscillation. I measured this through Stryd, do you think it's not accurate data or that doesn't mean it entails a different running form? They clearly indicate that your running form changes with speed...
-
Tongue in cheek: Running = Sprinting. Jogging = everything else then. Distinctive differences. The barefoot dude probably wasn't going that slow just a comparison made him look slow. I enjoy your vids. Thanks.

Are you sure about BMI 19? I got down to 20, but difficult to have muscle mass
-
Great video and info.
-
NOW you replaced my misconception with the real conception! 🤤🤤
-
now what is different running and sprinting?
-
There's a difference in intention. I say I'm going for a run regardless, but when I'm going easy and largely just enjoying the scenery, it's jogging.
