Overall, my takeaway from this video (plus other videos) is to -- run upright - ears, shoulders, and hips should be aligned vertically -- breath deeply into the belly -- avoid both hell strikes and running on toes - a midfoot strike is optimal -- cadence, stride length, and foot strike are all interrelated -- allow head to shift laterally for balancing the hip movement For sprinting, the main differences are that -- forward lean (at the ankles, not at the hips) becomes desirable at high speeds -- foot strike moves forward 1:50 - Ears, shoulders, and hips should be vertically aligned (ear angle is controlled by neck joint, shoulder angle is controlled by back). 4:38 - Angel vs. zombie drill 5:37 - Foot should land under hip (this is also related to cadence) 6:53 - Could jump rope 7:22 - Avoid leaning forward (except for sprinting) 7:50 - Avoid forward leaning - should be able to wiggle toes. Forward shift is OK - 60/40 in the foot with ability to wiggle toes. 10:33 - Avoid hip dropping 11:10 - Allow head to shift side-to-side 11:45 - head over foot drill 12:00 - shift head
Thank you guys so much for making this video. I struggled for so long running. I had so much pain in my calves and shins when I ran. But after incorporating these tips. I am pain free. Thank you so much
One of the coolest things about exploring running since I’ve been learning from Lawrence is that the art is creatively expressed by doing- and I’m just noticing myself naturally craving that self-exploration in running. And almost like it’s a dance- it’s quite exquisite!
this is the kind of content I really missed from GTN - i admittedly unsubscribed and this was fed to my algorithm! this was so informative and i learned loads - very glad to have found my way back to GTN via this video and hope to stick around for longer this time!
This video is speaking my language! 🏃♂💡 Funny thing, I've been pounding the pavement for a good nine years, swearing by the "push harder, get faster" motto. But, truth be told, it only got me so far. Before stumbling upon this video, I'd already been rethinking my whole approach. The realization hit me out of the blue - it's not just about putting in more effort; it's about running smarter. I was fixated on the feeling of pushing hard, never giving much thought to the mechanics. But hey, I'm not alone in this journey! The emphasis on running technique in this video totally resonates with the lightbulb moment I had. And there's more to it than just the way you move - the ATP, aerobic systems, and cardiovascular efficiency were revelations for me too. Thanks so much for sharing this video!
Great video on mastering running posture! Lawrence Van Lingen's insights are spot on. This will definitely help improve my running technique. Thanks, GTN!
Synchronizing your upper( shoulder , arms) and lower( hip, legs) is done by your abs , your abs initiate and synchronize the move cross your body, upper and lower !!!! Concentrate on your abs movement, keep them engaged and working, your upper and lower will follow! 😂😂😂🏃🏼♂️🏃🏼♂️🏃🏼♂️👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻build strong abs !
I had to study up here and regroup a bit... I prefer to be bigger on elastic tissue stimulation and try to avoid hard heel strikes and more forward strikes slightly to the outside edge make for a better return and an easier cadence, other than that posture makes for big returns, because it's not as clumsy. This is one of the big advantages of hill climbs. Thanks and Happy Christmas GTN!
That last minute is one of the most important parts of this video - You have to train in that expensive super shoe, and it takes months of training to get the tissue/muscle/form correct.
Wow, this one was a gem. I am going to review this one and take notes, 5 times over. And then work on things one at a time (starting simple and all that :)
Naruto was right all along.
Overall, my takeaway from this video (plus other videos) is to
-- run upright - ears, shoulders, and hips should be aligned vertically
-- breath deeply into the belly
-- avoid both hell strikes and running on toes - a midfoot strike is optimal
-- cadence, stride length, and foot strike are all interrelated
-- allow head to shift laterally for balancing the hip movement
For sprinting, the main differences are that
-- forward lean (at the ankles, not at the hips) becomes desirable at high speeds
-- foot strike moves forward
1:50 - Ears, shoulders, and hips should be vertically aligned (ear angle is controlled by neck joint, shoulder angle is controlled by back).
4:38 - Angel vs. zombie drill
5:37 - Foot should land under hip (this is also related to cadence)
6:53 - Could jump rope
7:22 - Avoid leaning forward (except for sprinting)
7:50 - Avoid forward leaning - should be able to wiggle toes. Forward shift is OK - 60/40 in the foot with ability to wiggle toes.
10:33 - Avoid hip dropping
11:10 - Allow head to shift side-to-side
11:45 - head over foot drill
12:00 - shift head

Great insights! Thanks GTN
Literally the best running form video

This content is why I'm here, as well. The commentary is fun and the hosts are wonderful, but I want data and expert advice more than anything 🙏
exactly!@@SamuelLudden
Great content, took a ton of notes. Thanks guys!
OMG I tried this today! Angel arms, 1-and cadence, pogo stick legs..it all worked. I never really understood super shoes until this. Wow.
This was such an awesome episode! Really needed this🎉
Glad you enjoyed! Let us know how it goes 👍
Something new and interesting. Thks. 😅
This video is speaking my language! 🏃♂💡

Whats the correct way?
Thank you, very interesting. Merry Christmas 🎁🎄 GTN .
So nice to watch your videos.
Superb content. Thank you so much

I have to watch this several times!
Taking notes will help 📝
Loved this! I’m all about run form technique so this was perfect 👍
Thank You! Do you have any pointers to add?
This is a really interesting subject. I may have to come back to listen again!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great stuff & lots to learn and practice! Thanks GTN, and Merry Christmas!
Good luck with the practice, Merry Christmas! 🎄
Omg that was an early Xmas present. ❤
This is absolute gold. Lawrence is the MAN
Great video... lots of good tips to try out
Glad it was helpful - let us know how you get on!
Love reading about run technique...and then along comes Anne Haug :)
Thank you for this explanation this video answers some questions I had.
Great video, thanks...
Very well explained,love to watch again n again.
Thank you for this. This is so helpful.
Really cool queues 💪🏻
Nicely explained.
This a great video excellent information!
Great video. I thought I had it figured our. There is always another level. Love it.

Awesome video, it's been a while since I've got takeaways for a whole video
Good to hear! thanks for the comment!
thank you love it

Very useful tips, took out my phone and turned on selfie cam to try some of these at home
How did it go?
i really liked the "string pulling the head up" and the "angel v zombie" tips. Helped a lot to visualize and self-assess my posture. Thank you! @@gtn

Happy we could help! Taking the time to review and break it down is a solid approach. 👍
5:15 turns out Naruto was on to something
Underated comment 😉
This is such an informative video. What else should I consider if I have flat feet? Also, my knees have been hurting a bit lately.
Tension is the enemy of efficiency 🔥
Cool! Thanks! (old guy)
Hands have to be behind you. So I just have to run like Naruto. Got it.
😂😂😂
Ofcourse she has a great posture, she trains like a beast.
I had to stand up to watch this on my ipad
The kids who tried to run like anime characters are thrilled by the "angel" posture there.
Where was this filmed?
I'll zombie my next Park Run
Nice video. You should also check out Fredrik Zillen for a running form collaboration. His tutorials are brilliant.
5:20 that's why Naruto runs fast.
why do my legs always feel like lead, even at the start of a 5k?
My palm tree is tilted...
Sorry do you drink coffee? Before you workout?
Was a valuable video until you started trying to sell us shoes
Happy holidays gtn. I dont run but i Love seeing Heather as always 💕 ❤️ .
Brilliant video. Thank you so much.
