Why Strength Training Isn't Working to Keep You Running Injury-Free

- In this video I am going to share with you why there is often a disconnect between strength and your ability to use that strength. It’s what we call muscle activation.
Many runners spend hours per week in the gym performing a variety of strength training routines designed to help them improve power and reduce injuries.
However, there is often a missing component when it comes to transferring these gains in strength to running mechanics.
You can have the strongest hips and glutes in the world, but if those muscles are not “firing” or activating properly during the running stride, then it doesn’t matter how strong you are, your running form is still going to suffer.
This inhibition or lack of activation (often “referred to as firing”) is why some runners still get injured, despite doing all the right core, hip and preventative exercises.
In this video, we’re going look at muscle activation and inhibition in more depth to help you bridge the gap between strength and running mechanics.

Thank you. I’ve tried everything for my IT Band Syndrome and I bet this’ll be the answer. It’s been 5 years since I’ve been able to run
good video, I'll keep these tips in mind while training going forward.
Thanks for the video. There are 20 extra mins of dark and silence at the end of the video
Thanks for the heads up, I didn't realize until uploading. Tried editing with YT controls, so hopefully that works
