Summary of the episode from Strength Running:

My discussion with Paul is a masterclass on form. Despite this being a complex topic, his ideas are easy to grasp and  have made me rethink some commonly held concepts about running technique. Some of the topics we discuss on the episode include:

• Paul’s “top down” approach to thinking about running form and technique
• 3 of the most common problem areas for runners
• How your arms create lift in your running
• The underestimated torso – why we need to focus here first
• The impact of running shoes on form
• Why the “don’t fix what isn’t broken” mentality may not be the best way to approach running technique
• The importance of body awareness to create change in your form

This week’s episode can help runners learn how to improve their form at any stage of the game.  Enjoy!
