    Motion and the choices you make is highly based on mental comfort. If you feel good in a certain form then it is likely that your motion is optimized by that way of running. Once you get the proper feel for things you like you will get mental stimulation it is a key parameter. It's not all physics the mental component is key in the result. If your mental is satisfied by certain capacities there is a strong chance it will get the physics excited and stimulated so that you can have greater efficiency at certain angles of motion that do not make sense often. That is where you get the odd motion that sometimes uncomprehensively the best of them have it. And I point them, meaning not anyone I know, but those greats like Mo Farah or the runner analyzed in this video.

    I love this analysis, you’re one of the only youtubers to actually give evidence and not just ramble for watch time, defo subscribing
  • @Vivungisport
    You are making great running analysis. And your voice makes this subject interesting to watch.
  • @roserunner6961
    do one of bernard lagat. He's interesting because he's been able to stay injury free and running at a high level for so long. He made it to the 2016 olympics in the 5000m as a 41 year old which is unheard of and I'm curious if his form is what makes him able to run fast and stay injury free.
  • One thing that doesn't seem to be spoken about a lot however, is the extension of the arm swing to the chest and how this assists in increasing speed (and even efficiency). For example, if the arms swing is low (i.e. stomach height), this translates to an entirely different stride to when the arms swing higher. With the elite athletes (especially the men), the arms swing high up to the chest and this assists the overall dynamics of the stride. I went from a mid-torso arm swing to an arm swing up to the chest, and along with a few other necessary adjustments, this increased my stride length and, it increased my speed. Just curious why there's not a lot of commentary on this small but significant factor.

    Interesting analysis.I think it’s good to see examples of good form like this. However, I think it’s difficult to simply try to replicate what an athlete of this level does based on observation. What you are really seeing is the finished product of years of focused training sessions - long runs, hill sprints, long hill reps, track reps, pyramid drills, strength training in gym, threshold , tempo runs, progression runs, good diet, lots and lots of mileage - easy runs every day, a life based around running basically.

    Paul's Pace: 21 km/h Now me: trying to get a pace > 20 km/h on my MTB bike :(
  • I wish there was a site for analyses of regular normal guy runners, where you could send your footage and get some advice to improve your style...
  • @zkennedy5671
    this dude run 5k in 14 minutes DAMN! All I got was 2,760 in 12 minutes. He is beast
  • @Crippleddog
    My coach boutta be impressed when he makes us run for 5 minutes again.
  • I love your videos! Thank you so much for putting the effort into this quality work!
  • @MrDawgy12
    Came because of the analysis. Ended up just wanting to watch him run without the pauses in between. Great video tho. XD
  • @anthonytuun8229
    I would like to have my running form analysis! How can I get it on your podcast?
  • I'm fan of this guy from when he analyzed Usain Bolt's knee twisting technique from starting blocks... even Michael Johnson missed that best running analysis channel on YouTube
  • @robertluong220
    Interesting suggestion to increase cadence by 5% to decrease vertical oscillation at 3:35.
