ABOUT ME: I'm James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).

Since 2007 I've been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.

Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.

🔥 Want to break the cycle of running injuries? This is for you:

[LukasSkate]

1.) sleep at least 8 hours
2.) Eat enough protein (1.2 - 1.7 g per kg bodyweight)
3.)Stabi, strenght, mobility training (2-3x per week)
4.) Drink enough water

[StephenJReid]

So true! I interviewed Mo Farah once and blew my mind that he said he sleeps up to 12 hours a day during training!

Think a lack of sleep is probably my biggest training hinderance, I’ve never slept well.

[rasamo]

I find that sometimes if I’m properly hydrated I end up sleeping a little better too. It’s all connected!

[mmgibson]

I like to do a series of dynamic range-of-motion moves before I run to loosen up my joints and get the blood flowing, and then save the longer and more stretchy stuff for after I come back. I also like the benefits of foam rolling to iron out any knots that might try to be develop. These seem to be some important reasons why I can still be so active at almost 59 - I take care of my body and don't assume it will just turn on whenever I want like a light switch.

Up until 2 weeks ago, I wasn’t grinding much water. I only realized how that could affect me when it was too late, I had gotten cramps in my calves and couldn’t run for the rest of the week. Be careful and drink lots of water

Stretch your muscles as well if you are not physically working out on your recovery day have a longer stretching session it reduces injuries very well

Michael Phelps said "Eat, sleep and swim, that's all I can do." Replace "swim" with "run" and there you have it. Sleep is such a key part of pro athletes in any discipline and us non-pro easily forget that

[GaryJahman]

Sleep
Eat
Train
Hydrate
Repeat

Great video 👍

I sleep on average 6hrs per day and for me this is sufficient to recover

[guymontag]

These aren't exactly secrets of the pros as the title strongly implies. I feel click baited.

[Ajumi-]

the beach is NOT optional!! Without a beach you won't ever become a pro Athlete! :D

[bkool]

Have you done any video on Runners diet or Protein requirement and how to fulfill protein requirement for long distance runners. If not already done, can you come up with one video on this topic?

[piaruns]

I recently (like two months ago) gave up keto and low carb after reading the book "the endurance diet" by Matt Fitzgerald. Not only did this kind of eating had a huge impact on my running but also on my general relationship with food. I highly recommend reading it - it's not just for endurance runners but actually everyone. 🍌

[ult]

Thanks! You always have great learning video! 👍

[redravenrages]

The opener. “Running doens’t make you better, resting does.” Aight Imma sleep 2 straight days and then run a sub 4 minute mile, thank you!

[JuntaParty]

"Many of us diligently do do this type of work, but it's often squeezed in the cracks of the weekly schedule!" Bro 😂

[ayushades]

4:34 - 4:58 just for my convenience as a mark.

[macross]

Eat, sleep, and work. I work a physical job. It doesn't really leave much room for anything else.

[Roger-iliw]

10 to 12 hours is essential for anyone running mileage above 20 a week.
