3 Minutes to Correct your Running Form

So many athletes come to me with overuse injuries from running. In this short video "3 Minutes to Correct your Running Form" we nail down the things you need to do, step by step to become a better runner. Did I mention while reducing injury?

Finaally... hundreds of 15min videos of running coaches with 5 min of improper running technique, 10 seconds of correct running technique and 10 minutes of freaking zone 2 and heartbeating. Would give this 1 million likes if I could, thank you

Just finished running using this technique. It made me finish running my 5km feeling like I could do 5km more with ease. To think about it I ran 5km yesterday and I felt like I was dying. This technique really works, thank you.

Shishhh...this class should be taught in middle school...basic motor skills...would’ve made it easier for lots of kids to get into sports and fitness.

I’d call myself an intermediate runner. I’ve struggled to run properly the whole time though. My calves or Achilles’ tendon would burn and sometimes my hips would ache.
However, after watching this video, I practiced running like this, and it’s much more efficient. No aches, pains, or inflammation. I even ran a lot faster with ease.
This video was a lifesaver. Now I can enjoy running without any pain.

This is is an excellent video. To the point. Concise. Short.

For me, this was the single best piece of advice for preventing knee pain. As I get more tired, this still allows me slow down without going too heavy on the knees. If I feel good, the transition between times makes so much sense. I wish I had known this 30 years ago when I was younger. I feel this would have sent me to that next level of running

It also explains how the world class runners looks the same between the beginning and finish. Consistent cadence with stride changes.

I think i tried this sometime this past week. It made a huge difference. Very excited. Cadence went up and i ran a really good tempo work out. I am now just playing around with it more.

This is already better then that other dude you were trying to teach.

BEST GUIDE ON RUNNING EVER. I had so much trouble with this always, I'm 35. Give this man a medal.

Its amazing that after 38 years of life I am finally learning to run properly without knee pain. This video helped a lot. Other videos on you tube made me think i have to focus on kicking my butt or kicking my heel to the sky on each stride.

I used to run in college and I can honestly say trying to correct a form is difficult. Sometimes injuries arise from this. I have found weight lifting to be the best to correctly incorporate better form.

This short tutorial changed my "running life" forever. Gratitude!

[JaeggerPendoley]

I really wanted to thank you. I have not been able to run for a month due to an injury coupled w/ the fact that somehow I feel like I lost my natural running gait (overthinking technique most likely). I was able to run 6 miles yesterday by simply focusing on this foot strike and leaning forward from my ankles. I almost cried from being so happy. Thank you so much <3

This is a masterpiece! Better than the 90% of videos on YouTube!

[CaptainBvi]

Sorry running update. I tried your form in april and saw instant results with higher cadence and faster pace. I then got injured and after a few months I started back up again. I tried a different form and well I was really discourage. Struggling around 159 to 163 cadence. Now this last 10 days I went back to your basics in this video. Last few runs have been 165 and 166 cadence. Very smooth. I find myself in the 168 to 170s now! I almost have up. Thank you

[Thrive-WP]

I literally can’t thank you enough. You saved my running! About a month ago, I finished the couch to 5k and have been running about 3x 5ks a week; however, I have been struggling with shin pain. Nothing major but a little tender, and I just felt like I was heavy on my feet all the time. You hear so much about a mid-foot stricking; I was so focused on not running on my heels and trying to get mid-foot that I didn’t realise I was still probably overstriding. I adopted your technique today, and although I felt a little odd and slow to start with, I soon got used to it. My run felt much better than many of my previous, and you helped me shave four and a half minutes off my 10k record to a sub 60 at 58:57, so thank you so so so so much.

Edit: ok, after having a fantastic run, my calves are now killing me. From what I have read so far, this is due to forefoot stricking, which seems to be what this technique is. So now I am stuck again with an injury 😢

[roukken]

I've probably hit the hundreds of videos about running and form and everything and this is the first one I see explaining this. I always did the heel kicking, I haven't been injured but wow, this knowledge has to be shared

[patrickmorris]

This really is a miracle cure for overstriding. Been struggling my whole life to get my cadence above 166, and to land anywhere other than my heel. 5 minutes of this, and I'm bouncing along on my forefoot at up to 190bpm. One problem, though - it seems to cause pain my low hamstrings. Hopefully this will cure itself in time, as I've changed a lot, in a short space of time. Can't recommend this enough.

[Pelucuerdas]

This is great. I tried this technique today and run with a cadence of 165 instead of my normal 150 at easy pace. My knee was a lot better too. Thank you

[__entiendo]

this deserves my like, too many people making videos with long intros. This got straight to the point and I love it.
