Yes, the title of this video is very misleading (although the video itself is good). Any form of exercise is asking your body to adapt to an unfamiliar requirement and if your body can't adapt (either because you're not built that way or you're doing it wrong) you will get an injury instead of getting stronger. The mental game is often to do with anxieties about what messages your body is sending you about what you're trying to make it do.
trust me, run or do any sort of physical activity long enough; you'll learn the difference...think practically about the biomechanics involved. you know more than you think
@@karlpuetz8352 I agree that most athletes learn the difference, but often at the cost of suffering an avoidable injury. An ounce of prevention beats a pound of cure.
@@rhin0414 The pain of an injury CAN go away after a warm up. It depends on how severe it is and what sort of injury. People run on minor fractures all the time.
Please please please do a video on knee strengthening and perhaps focus on exercises for runners who are getting back into running after common knee injuries
I’m so so glad to see Manny back! He’s one of my favorite presenters and I always appreciate the insights and the workouts. Please please incorporate these types of videos more frequently in your rotation!
Brilliant video, I know now where I made the massive mistake with my calve raises, guess starting from scratch but maybe it finally fixes my Achilles issues
I’m coming back from having inner knee pain. So really would be interested in videos for strengthening and mobility exercises addressing to such issues 😊
I would love to hear about causes of low level multiple pain. I get pain in my right knee and left hip. Not enough to stop me from running, but a pain that actually happens during the day after runs rather than during a run.
Much appreciation for Manny and his explanation from a physio on the other side of the Atlantic! Love the running prehab content, too! Please keep it coming
This is a great addition to the on-line running database! Have you ever done a video on differences in form that are due to different natural anatomy? Is that even a real thing?
Great video...and very interesting exercises. I think, a similar format on common injuries (like plantar fasciitis, shin splints and so on) - exercises for prevention or to help the rehab would be brilliant.
Hi! Would you do a video about how to maintain running fitness after a race? I've been training for my first half marathon, and outside of this 20-week progressive beginner's training plan, I have no idea what a typical week looks like for maintenance. Without another race to target right away (a little out of budget for me!), I'm not quite sure what to do in the meantime!
Ah! This one comes in timely. I hurt my right quad 2 weeks ago. More specifically the vastus medialis (bending and arching my knee is okay but the moment I twist it inwards, it hurts). Rested 2 days after the pain started. Felt it had healed so went out on a run again. Like before, didn’t hurt during the run but the moment I came back and sat down, it started hurting. Paused again. And then, 2 days later stupidly tried again and found it hurting again. Now, I will take a week long break. I refuse to run this week. I am letting the world know so that I can be held accountable.
Oooh I'm loving these exercises! Definitely adding them to my preventative/strengthening exercises provided by my physio as well. Thanks the Running Channel team!
I'm experiencing discomfort behind my knee, specifically in the upper calf and lower hamstring area. Despite this, I'm currently pushing through the discomfort due to a tightly packed calendar of events that I cannot afford to miss. These upcoming runs in Cardiff hold significant importance to me as they mark the culmination of my studies in the UK. Notably, I have the Cardiff 10k scheduled for next week, followed by the Cardiff half marathon the following month. Once the half marathon is complete, I intend to allocate a rest period of approximately two weeks to allow for recovery. Following this recovery period, my focus will shift towards preparing for the upcoming cross country season.
That is a knee stability / muscle imbalance issue so it would be recommended to do a lot of one leg balance / squat / calf raise type exercises to strengthen the muscles and tendons around the knee and prepare it better for impact each time you strike the ground with your foot. Make sure to train glutes and hamstrings since being quad dominant can also lead to the pain you described above.
One of the biggest changes I've made to my training this year is including core strength & hip mobilty training. I'd been suffering from hip flexor issues but this has reduced significantly with this training.
A great informative video, I’ve just been suffering with heel pain and have been to a physio, it amazes me how much they can work out just by observing you. I now have new insoles for my shoes and a series of exercises, the improvement is amazing.
I had a ACL 30 years ago at 51 i went from couch to half marathon in 6 months running 5 times a week 80/20 ...starting pick up injuries i think stem from inbalance because of acl ..groin ,hip and the operated knee hurting i do the strength work too ..going to take 1 month of running ,do strength work and bit of RUclips yoga . Hoping for the Best .
I currently have chondromalacia patella my right knee is slightly tracking off centre physio has helped I'm doing a return to run program and the knee is feeling good and has been around 4 months.
It is critical to get the butt working to help the chondomalacia while not doing quad work, which hurts the soft tissue between patella and femur. If you have gluteal amnesia, it must go.
@@joshuamoss9116 I just saw an enlightening video on YT @ElPasoManualPhysicalTherapy, where a doctor of physiotherapy said to train the foot too, not just the glutes.
Mani we've missed you!!! I think I'd love some information on shin splints. I'm self massaging and incorporated calf exercises, and I've found some relief. Are there any other tips? Love from Trinidad 🇹🇹
I'd love an ankle video too, but wanted to recommend a wobble cushion! It's like a big inflatable Frisbee that you stand or exercise on. It's helped my ankle stiffness/ strength SO much. I got it for about $20 on Amazon. Best wishes!
I've been running for a few years and have always suffered from sciatica / piriformis syndome. Nothing I've done makes it completely disappear. It's very noticeable in my warm up, then slowly fade after 10-15 mins. I can run for hours after that without much of an issue. But soon after I stop or cool down, it returns. It isn't particularly painful, just more annoying/uncomfortable than anything. Any tips to help it disppear completely would be amazing! Love these type of videos TRC!
I needed this video! I finished my first 5k in over 10 years last week. When I finished, I had some hip pain that I'd never had before. I could sit or stand, but transitioning between the two was rough. I took a week off and did a 25 min run (a little under 2 mi for me, I'm slow). It still hurt, but not nearly as much as the prior week. Going to add those hips exercises in for sure!
Great content guys. A couple of issues I'd like to see covered are stats from a smartwatch, for a few months now mine is telling me my asymmetry isn't good and shows as I'm more on the right hand side, which coincides with my other issue, a pain in my left hip later in the day of the run and the following day 🤷🏻♂️ no pain during the runs though...
Possibly chondromalacia so test if you have gluteal amnesia and train the butt muscles to fire instead of being quad dominant. Which squashes the soft tissues between patella and femur. Strengthening the butt helps the knee.
Awesome guys, thanks so much! Calf raises are a big one for me. Can you tell me why the top of my foot (bridge) would be hurting after running please? It's not too tight shoes, if tried a few, thank you😊
@Sarah The physio missed some key things for stability. Check if you have gluteal amnesia. The cue for proper calf rise is the same as for running posture: Have a line attached to the top of your head pull you straight up. My physio made me train with weights with a calf rise added with SI joint exercise picking up the airborne knee lifted as high as it will go in sync with the calf rise. My pt is a tall basket ball player and he says that his 90 kg added load for calf rise makes him weak in calves!
I always reach a point in my training where I start getting lateral ankle pain. I suspect it is peroneal tendonitis. I also think I have plantar facciitis. Would love any pointers!
Definitely been ignoring a pain in my right heel for about 6 months now. Really hurts first thing in the morning - always tricky walking downstairs - but it gets better throughout the day and it's not affecting my running (got a 5k PB last Saturday). But it would love to know what it is and get it sorted.
Oh heck yes. Ran for a year with upper hamstring tendinitis. Finally did PT for it and it's much better now. Currently running with post-tibial tendon disfunction. Not fun. Trying to avoid cambered road surfaces and keep my volume low, but I can't just NOT run or walk - not if I want to stay sane. 😣
I’m dealing with Posterior Tibia Tendonitis and some knee tendons issue, there’s no way I can run without it coming back painful the next day. You are so lucky to be able! Wishing you a speedy recovery!
@@jessruns123 Not saying it isn't painful but I can't stand it if I can run or at least hike, so I take an Advil, use KT tape as my PT advised, and suck it up. I'm also having it k-lasered which is helping a lot. My PT also showed me how to massage it. I wish you a speedy recover too!!!!!!
@@LauraTrauth thanks. I’m dying to get back out there again, so I woke up with a desire to try again. Going to get back on routine with my PT exercises and start off walking on a local short dirt trail. This Tendonitis has definitely been a tough mental road trip.
I've suffer from siatica on and off and I always feel tight in my whole body from a past injury. I also have a shoulder problem (nerve pain I think). Ive been working out in the gym for about a year now and just started doing park runs. I'm hoping that I will start getting stronger and the stiffness and aching will diapers at some point as I'm starting to foam roll more and stretch more. If you have any advice I would be I would be greatful. Thank you
I’d love to know the benchmarks for all the tests to know if you need to work on more strength. You mentioned a couple, but how many SL calf raises? How long for the adductors? Etc
Please do something about high feet arches and foot support. Even having good shoes will not fix this problem. Until I learned about my foot structure I couldn’t jog more than 30km due to pain in my feet bones.
I'm having itb band issues with my kneez. It's severely hindering my running. 2 weeks in it hasn't gotten better.. Itb, pain in outside of knee joint. Not the cap. Just outside at the bend hurts bad..
I went and sought help for an injury last year, the Dr and ohysio paod me off, gave me some stretches and told me to take it easy. 6 weeks ago it all went to shit, i fractured my hip and I've got Gilmore groin which has stopped me from running entirely.
😠 Well that was money well spent. I'm sorry that happened to you. I've learned that any health care professional I use, from GP to physios, need to have worked with athletes. Physically I'm not much of one, but mentally I am, and I need/ appreciate Drs who have actual helpful advice other than just "rest".
@@Kelly_Ben Unfortunately my job provides me with free healthcare, so they dictate the medical professionals I see and as they say you get what you pay for, so mine are not great. I finally convinced them to take my injury somewhat seriously and have an appointment with a sports specialist tomorrow.
I have issues with my Chondromalacia patella in both knees as well as my bicep femoris tendon in the back of my knee. I've been running for nearly 10 years. I used to run distances of 10-13 miles a run and an average of 40 miles a week. My assumption is that I have a muscle imbalance. Some muscles are over compensating and well developed while others are dormant. I've been doing a lot to work on the glutes that have been dormant due to a sedentary lifestyle, lot of sitting. In addition to stretches and strengthening exercises, I've done a lot of graston therapy and red light therepay and that certainly helps in recovery. Can anyone provide some suggestions?
Great video as per usual 😁 I get a pain at the top of my back after I have ran a half at my fastest on a race day. Iv been told to lean against a wall on a pillow and place chin downwards to my chest to stretch the muscle there. Are there any other exercises to help this. Thanks 👍
I have those small lumps of hard skin on that part of my foot near my big toe. I just assumed it was something I'd have to deal with. Seems fine in my wide Ghosts but rubbed a bit doing 21km in Hyperions as they dont come in a wide 😢
I had my first shin splints back in June this year then I was in a haitus of running for a month then began running again only to be reminded of the ghost pain once more,took another haitus this time month and a half. Still the pain is there, I've tried everything,ice,calf raises, excersises for it to recover. I've noticed it gets sore when I do laundry, since I have to carry heavy buckets of water it kinda feels sore on the posterior side. It's not to much pain but the ghost of a pain and I feel scared to begin running because of it. Now I'm going to be in a haitus for 3 whole months,see how it goes😢
Not a physio but a fencer and fencing coach as well as a runner. What I found myself was that I never got shin splints in my front leg - the one where you lift your toes up with every advance in fencing. I only ever got them in the back leg. So I started doing toe raises every day in both legs. No shin splints since... Can't say this would work for everyone but I'm happy to have found my solution.
You might be overstriding? I believe thats the most common cause of chin splints? Try taking shorter steps, like place foot down under you instead of in front of you
@@AndersGustafsson87 well when I go running I barely run tbh I mostly walk and it still hurts. My shin splints developed by doing Jumping jacks and jumping excersises then when I went for a run, it began aching so it wasn't even the running that developed them but the jumping

Any hints for strengthening achilles please? Discomfort around ankle/heel for first ten minutes or so of every run then it eases off...
I suffer badly with DOMs after doing squats, which puts me off doing them. Any suggestions on how to reduce the DOMs ?
Start with fewer reps / Less weight, but repeat three times a week. Build up over time, keep the consistency
What is the best way to recover from ITB?
It is always get when you on Manny
Ahh yes, both of my longest runs this year in a row, very treating my body well
In relation to weights, what are the pros and cons when comparing doing standing calf raises compared to doing it on the leg press machine?
I have those small lumps of hard skin on that part of my foot near my big toe. I just assumed it was something I'd have to deal with. Seems fine in my wide Ghosts but rubbed a bit doing 21km in Hyperions as they dont come in a wide 😢
I had my first shin splints back in June this year then I was in a haitus of running for a month then began running again only to be reminded of the ghost pain once more,took another haitus this time month and a half. Still the pain is there, I've tried everything,ice,calf raises, excersises for it to recover. I've noticed it gets sore when I do laundry, since I have to carry heavy buckets of water it kinda feels sore on the posterior side. It's not to much pain but the ghost of a pain and I feel scared to begin running because of it. Now I'm going to be in a haitus for 3 whole months,see how it goes😢
Have you seen a physio?
Not a physio but a fencer and fencing coach as well as a runner. What I found myself was that I never got shin splints in my front leg - the one where you lift your toes up with every advance in fencing. I only ever got them in the back leg. So I started doing toe raises every day in both legs. No shin splints since... Can't say this would work for everyone but I'm happy to have found my solution.
@@michaeldallaway1988 no,cuz the pain isn't unbearable, it's just a ghost of a pain.
You might be overstriding? I believe thats the most common cause of chin splints? Try taking shorter steps, like place foot down under you instead of in front of you
@@AndersGustafsson87 well when I go running I barely run tbh I mostly walk and it still hurts. My shin splints developed by doing Jumping jacks and jumping excersises then when I went for a run, it began aching so it wasn't even the running that developed them but the jumping
Great ❤
