- Improve your running forward lean to run faster and improve running technique. Your running posture is the key to proper running form; if you want to run faster and improve running efficiency, you need to learn how to lean forwards from the ankles as you run. Many runners try to lean forwards while running, but end up bending forwards at the waist. Use the running tips in this video to improve your running posture and develop a forward lean like Kenenisa Bekele and other elite runners.

I once knocked down a wasp nest and they came flying out. I never ran faster in all my life. The heck with posture, fear will get you running faster than ever.
😂😂😂
For me it was mama duck with her ducklings. She felt I was a threat and went after me. Not fun.
@@NoNameNoLastName xd
I once did the same, but this wasp knew how to lean forward when flying and caught me in the ears, and it hurt like crazy...
Eros Funny, I also was stung on the ear but not that time. I think wasps have a thing for ears.
I checked my 1.5mile time yesterday and did a 10m36, I've just applied this hip thrust technique to the same run today and went under 10 mins. This is magic advice, James. Thanks.
I wonder what you looked like to other people.
Whatever liar
@@kshusband like a fool...lol
@@mikevaldez7684 how did he tho
I love his straightforward, no nonsense approach. The video is about running and not James! Well-done!
That's awesome video! It addresses an important point that actually long distance running, even at elite paces like 2:50 min/km, is still pretty passive. You cannot be efficient without focusing on passive running, and you can see that very well when some beginner runners try to hit pace below 5:00 min/km and they already look as if they were sprinting.
I can also tell from my experience that focusing on higher cadence with shorter stride length greatly helps maintaining good forward lean from the ankles. You need to be quite flexible and have good core strength to have significant forward lean with low cadence and long stride. For most people this will just turn into sticking their butt back instead.
Cool this was exactly what I concentrated on this morning. It is great to see the explanation again reinforce the technique in my head so I can remind myself tomorrow morning. Cheers
James Dunne, definitely one of the top youtube's suggestions.
great one James, I'm always looking to improve my running, and I know that when I get tired I don't do this as well. Really trying to engrain this into my running.
How simple and meaningful was this? Nicely done!
Would have been hilarious if the video ended at 4:02
Perfect, I'll try that imagery today! I understood the basic concept, but wasn't sure how to check if I was actually DOING it!
Thankyou. That's the best and most practical explanation of this I've seen.
Cool video. I have heard of the concept before, but never seen it so clearly explained
Thanks, Danny! Glad the explanation made sense. I do wonder sometimes 😂 Let me know how you get on if you try this on your coming runs...
@@JamesDunne I will do. I am dealing with some foot issues (which is how I found your channel), so my running is limited at the moment, but I saw an older video you did on stride length and tried that out to good result.
@@JamesDunne Master in Pedagogy. You really nailed it with a wonderful demostration. I have read articles about this leaning forward form but now that I see it with your examples it makes total sense. I am anxious to try it in my coming run. THANK YOU!! Regards from L.A USA.
What enlightening bit of explanation.
Thank You so much, James
Cheers
Thank you, that was an excellent demonstration about better running form! I’ll be practicing this technique!
Love your English, crisp and clear.
Your videos are phenomenal, James. I have definitively learned something from them. I have even come back to older videos and gotten something else from it. I'm glad your channel has grown!
5 min is a good length, BTW.
Thank you, Eric!
FINALlY..someone explains it in a way that I get it. !!! I've been leaning forwards. Your use of the words hips forwatd.Thank You !!
Check out Danny Dryer on Chi Running. He explains the same with half of the talk. And something more valuable things about posture.
James sir please make a video on fast and efficient recovery after long runs . So that we can run better next time
Interesting video, and well explained. Thanks for posting.
Hip flexor flexibility is key.
Very nicely explained. Thank you.
Thank you for another clear explanation of something I never knew I needed to know.
I found this video just one day after I experienced the lean thanks to my new Alphayfly shoes. I took them out for a first run, and found them far less zippy than I expected. Then something happened I have never felt before: as I increased the pace slightly, the shoes enticed me to shift my weight forward, just a little, and seemed to take control of my gait. I found it far less relaxed than usual; not a greater effort, more a question of balance, like my brain was telling me I was falling the whole time. I arrived home keen to understand how to make the most of this technique, and the shoes.
Thank you James, this is a nice clear and concise video instruction, I will give it a try! (Have subscribed too 😊)
I really enjoyed this video. Mainly because it reinforced everything a running buddy taught me about good running form. He would always say to have a slight forward lean from the ankles keep your back straight ( do not lean from the waist) and allow gravity to carry you forward. It's made a tremendous impact on my running. To practice He would have me stand about a foot from the wall with feet about shoulder width apart and lean forward from the ankles keeping my back straight I would keep leaning forward til gravity kicked in and I would literally fall toward the wall and then catch myself by putting my arms out on the wall and repeating this over and over again bouncing back and forth. Then he would have me step away from the wall and do it again but this time he would say as you fall forward let one of your feet catch you and repeat, that's good running form he would say. For me it made a huge difference.
Very well explained. I'm new to the technical side so I'll give it a shot. Thanks!
I learn so much from this page.
Thank you for a good demo.
Great stuff. Thank you. B
Great tip!! Thanks!
Great video a kid in one of my video could use this!
I am a ski instructor so ankle dorsiflexion is nothing new to me but the application of it here absolutely rings true.
Wow this is interesting! I’ll give it a shot 🙌
I like the visualization of the hips floating! I am currently relaxing in front of the computer after coming back inside from my endorphin fix, I mean run. I do have a tendency to shift my weight forward or backward to find the most comfortable position and the least likely one to cause any overuse injuries, but due to the lockdown it has become trendy for people to walk, run, or gather in groups to also go out in the early morning. There have been many times lately that I have been surprised, had to take evasive action, and stop somewhere out of these twits way - often I've had to escape on the edge of a driveway, because there are cars coming at me and there is no room for both me and the other people that does not make it more likely that I might get hit. Then when I can get going again it usually takes me a while to get my body into the right stance again.
Awesome explaination
Great way to explain the net gain of zero when bending at the hip or waist 👍
Thank you I've been in a good this far. Thanks for the charity
Very useful video. Thanks for helping me to run to Spain in only 2 minutes
Thank you for this tip...
Interesting, Will try next run.
I do it where there a incline it help with the speed and less effort. I might try it on the regular basis. I give it a try. Thanks.
Thank you!
Nice video. I think about this as your stride rate must increase to avoid falling on your face. You still need to have the conditioning for this to work. Especially in the lower leg since this will automatically change how your foot strikes. I have found it is quite fatiguing at first but does indeed lead to faster running.
Bloody hell this works so well
It makes a lot of sense. I will try it on my next 5k. 🏃🏾
Good vid!
Cool video 👍
Thank you
well done!
Thanks ,
Was a good reminder....for experienced & newbs alike.
Seems "bad habits" creep in over time as our bodies want to be "comfortable" when we run (some call it laziness but i'll defer....) Only additional suggestion i'd add is: "....push/think your hips forward on the lean thought when you run as you can lean ankle wise but still crouch at the waistline (to some degree) and not achieve the full effect you're looking for." Tight hips, flexors, fatigue, etc., usually are the culprits leading to this becoming a "bad habit." Tks 4 video & efforts.
(YT hasn't "suggested" your channel in quite awhile for me; strange-hmmm......?🤔)
This is awesome. I forgot the key idea mentioned here which is move forward from the ankle, not from the waist (which I did earlier!)
Nice explanation
Very helpful video, for my son who is ten years old and playing football and was making this mistake, he was not lean forward while running. Thank you
I was so absorbed with the technique so I tried this tried this but forgot to move my feet while leaning forward and face planted the bitumen. Great explanation!
Nothing wakes you up like fresh sip of gravel tea...
Good job dunne
Wow I'm a pretty decent runner and this helped me realize I was thinking about the forward lean wrong for years! Been practicing the correct technique mentioned lately and have been faster even on longer runs! Thanks so much!!
Very nice with the Splitscreen to compare 👍🏃🏼
Glad you liked it! I thought it made the point well 😃
Don't bend forward from waist, don't say that to Cheriyout 😂
@@chuckaviator1926 If you look at Timothy Cheruiyot (world best 1500 m runner atm) running he has a distinct forward lean from the hips. Not the classic beautiful running form.
It's a controlled fall.. I try to be aware of this alot now.. squeeze those cheeks to prevent the hinge helpe me alot 😃
First track meet ever so I need this
Big fan
Excellent. Language is key. Think : Fall forward from the ankle. Try this in bare feet on short/freshly cut grass in local park. You can really force/initiate the feeling of this as you increase the speed and match it with the optimum 'falling' rate/angle. If the wheels come off, you can bail out on the padded ground. Why bare feet? So you can feel/sense that which supports you. 😊♥️😊
I always am reminded of Bill Bowerman in Prefontaine when he's telling Pre to position hips like they would be at the highest part of climax. It's been awhile since I've watched it so hopefully I'm not butchering it
Nice
Yes, the forward lean is important. When I drive my knee forward with a forward lean, the momentum will extend my trailing leg (muscles relaxed), while the friction from my trailing foot to the ground allows me to give natural heel-flick as my hip flexors brings the trailing leg forward. I land my foot with as subtle paw back to add to my speed. Finding you optimal stride length and not cadence is the best method to increase speed. Cheers!
Cool video! Is it just me or you really look like Jason Segel!
Great!
Thanks Alex!
Agreed! Great quality video as always.
This guy is definitely a fan of the popular book - Chi Running
King beleke👑
I hope New WR London2023⚡️❤️
Thanks
Ran the 42
In 3:45
Your tips help
That forward lean was me this morning at 04:00 hrs. Neat!
the right way
I gotta weak right hip, possibly piriformis or something similar. Fix that first before pursuing this??..
Lean forward from the ankles, not the hips. Whole video explained.
On 4.00 when the lean takes him forward and out of shot, it would be great if you could just hear him running through the window
Question I always have is should be push once the foot is loaded? Do you actively lower your feet to the ground to 'pop' off it? Or just open the hips and pull our body forward?
The difference between an expert and a RUclipsr.
Very good explanation... I get the theory, getting control of my body 25km into a run is a little trickier 😂
I can relate to that very well, although mine starts from 18-20 km into the run.
i do it already
I have totally internalized this but my problem is that, because leaning forward is my "gas pedal", the more I lean the more it it increases my heart rate. So if I want to stay in Zone 2 I have to basically sit back to an almost totally neutral center of mass. I don't know what to do but I dearly want to be in an efficient, lean-forward running position and have a lower heart rate.
Okay, so I saw this video before my last race and didn’t understand what he was saying. I made the mistake of bending, rather than leaning and I did terrible.
I have a race tomorrow. I might update if I run better
Anyone who has ever been running, stopped for a few seconds, and started again has felt the loss of momentum. This is the same principle. The more running is a controlled fall instead of jumping up and down, the easier you'll move forward.
Should you actively push off or should it happen passively? I've read conflicting advice on this. I find that I feel like I'm running faster when actively pushing off but see no actual increase in speed and my calves are much sorer for longer when actively pushing off. Thank you.
Do you think it’s easier on knees and joints?
Lean forward like you're gonna give someone a kiss
So this is POSE running. I have tried for ages to do this but when I lean from my ankles, I feel a lot of tension in my form which knackers me in no time. Any advice on how to combat this?
Is it same as Pose-Fall-Pull technique
Hey Mr James do you recruit athlete?
how does this fair running up a steep hill?
The only thing I don’t like in this video is the slow motion runner in the very beginning is over striding and heel planting 👎 But the forward lean is very much overlooked. Great demo on that 👍👍
Definitely not overstriding at this pace and turnover. Contrary to what is often suggested, overstriding is NOT just landing in front of the current center of mass. It actually happens when the point at which there is maximum reactive force (from the ground during the landing) is in front of the current center of mass. Then your landing contributes more to slowing you down. For slow paces it will be roughly the same as the current center of mass, for elite runners speed it will be quite a bit in front of it. And you can still heel-strike and not overstride and have very efficient running form.
@@JemArbuzy When I stopped the video when he landed, he was not over striding. I have seen some elites heel plant, particularly in the longer races. Rarely see this in track events. You do lose some natural cushioning by heel planting. This might be a more important observation is the athlete is frequently experiencing injuries issues. As a runner who has now had surgery on both knees, I can tell you from experience, my knees will let me know if I'm heel planting. Appreciated the thought on the forward lean in this video. I'll pass that along to my athletes!
Running 🏃 42 k tomorrow
How was it?
@@coralabar121 his still running
@@caldavs2424 (:
Is this just for distance running or for sprinters too? Just wondering if Michael Johnson ever adopted this technique, could he have run sub 43 😁
Nope, sprinting is not passive distance running. There are tons of differences in how propulsive force is produced in proper sprinter gait. Forward lean is important at the acceleration phase but rather only for proper direction of the maximum force produced by your muscles.
Puxaaa alguém traduz pra mim por favor
Whenever I try and lean forward while running, i start speeding up, faster than im comfortable running..It's hard to slow down a little while leaning forward!
As un video en el español xfa
If your foot lands directly beneath your center of gravity, you get not help from gravity for forward motion, so when leaning forward is your foot then landing behind your center of gravity? Doesn't that add a lot more strain on your legs/ankles etc? It may help you run faster but I'd think this beats your legs up a lot more as well?
Yes but it’s the most efficient way to run faster. Running beats up your legs more than walking but yet we all still run.
Hi James, what you are talking about is Chi Running, more or less
The forward lean is certainly one of the main principles of chi running. I do find it a bit too prescriptive as a ‘method’, but there’s some good stuff to take from their approach.
@@JamesDunne I agree that some of the ideas in Chi Running appear whacky at first but they are quite often things that work in practice. You just don't want to take it too seriously.
Things change running downhill. The lean must be miniscule then...
Well....British Steel!!!!!
