I'm loving these running cues. Long story short, in the last 6 weeks I've improved my form with the help of a PT by having more of a forward lean. As much as this has helped I feel like it can still be better. My calves have been giving me trouble and I'm thinking my lack of hip ext and glute push is the root cause.
Brilliant. You are so right. I like to categorize interventions. Most commonly technique and range of motion. Lack and ankle folding (dorsiflexion) and/or lack of hip extension can most definitely cause inhibition. Do you have a Good routine established for your hip mobility?
Thank you so much for this video, instant sub here. Just wondering, when I sprint I get sore calves and hip flexors (top of quads) I believe because I don’t push with the tush. Is this more likely a motor pattern issue or a strength/flexibility issue? Wondering how I could fix this while incorporating “concious effort” thank you.
great question! Thank you for asking. In my experience and opinion it is more of a motor pattern issue. The faster we go there should be more horizontal translation between steps. Unless trained we inefficienlty will go more vertical (jumping). Working on the posture to set yourself up for success and the tennis ball necklace drill can be helpful. I have a free course on the TBN on l2rtbn.com and videos on here for the hANKLE (posture of hinging at the ankle). Hope that was helpful!
