This is the fourth in a series of RunSmart videos. The series is on-going, with a new video released on a biweekly or monthly basis. These videos complement the material presented in the book “RunSmart: A Comprehensive Approach To Injury-Free Running”. The full series of videos can be found here. A transcription of the video will also be available with each post.
For those of you that are interested in a more interactive learning environment, consider attending a RunSmart Level One, Level Two, or Level Three program. Level One focuses on Principles, Level Two on Performance and Training Program Development, and Level Three on Physiotherapy and Running Injury Recovery.
In this video, I will discuss the first key element to running mechanics: erect posture. There are a some simple verbal cues that can foster an improvement in your running mechanics via alterations in posture.
I hope you enjoy the video series. If you would like me to address any specific aspect of the RunSmart approach, drop me an email or add a comment to this article.
