Correct Running Technique

Are you running properly?
Poor running technique can lead to unnecessary injury risks if they are not picked up early.

World class runners have world class techniques

Many recreational runners are placing undue strain on their bodies, as well as compromising their speed, by using the wrong technique.

Running well and running fast is a skill, not something you were born with. And just like any other skill it can be taught.

How to run properly
Are you running efficiently?

Some of the most common problems:

1. Bouncing up and down too much
2. Over striding
3. Not using their hamstrings enough
4. Landing on feet too heavily
5. Breaking action on landing
6. Not using arms
7. The head and upper body are bent forward
8. Jogging slower than you could walk!
