    yes these advices are easier for me to remember during running:
    (1) treat ground like eggshell don't break it
    (2) body straight slightly lean forward, chest up head up look far ahead like chest getting hanged 45 degree by crane ahead
    (3) handa relaxed like holding potatochips
    (4) use back leg and heel to propel ahead instead of front leg trying to reach furthest possible

    I used to be a big athlete in high school (soccer, kicker for football, and basketball, cross country in middle school). In 2014 I was in a severe single car accident and spent 13 days in a coma. I had to relearn how to walk and everything. I signed up for a 5k in October because I want to learn how to run again. My chiropractic/functional neurologist suggested looking into this chi running technique. Thank you for laying things out so clearly in this video! I will definitely be coming back to this many times as I continue in my journey.

      It's not a big deal. Keep in mind that Sage is not a sports medicine person and he's just parroting what is the latest trend. I will say one of the fastest guys I know has a slow ass cadence and does fine. Just run the way you feel most comfortable. If you keep getting injured and have some sort of weirdness to your stride, then go get a stride analysis by real experts who won't pigeon hole you with a one size fits all approach.

    • @rtcartiecie2118
      @rtcartiecie2118 Před 5 lety +25

      I think you´ll find evidence for both points of view/both ways of running. This, for example, is evidence backing up heel strike;
      1. Kleindienst F, Campe S, Graf E, et al. Dif­ferences between fore- and rearfoot strike running patterns based on kinetics and kine­matics. XXV ISBS Symposium 2007, Ouro Preto, Brazil.
      2. Kleindienst, F.I. (2003). Gradierung funktioneller Sportschuhparameter am Laufschuh. Shaker. Aachen, 234-235.
      3. Walther, M. (2005). Vorfußlaufen schützt nicht vor Überlastungsproblemen. Orthopädieschuhtechnik, 6, 34.
      ... and I'm guessing you'll find alot of evidence backing up mid/front foot landing too. As a physical therapist, my reasoning would be that if you do have a heel strike whilst running, the weight gets transfered over your ankle joint in a way that I would view as 'less intensive' compared to a front/mid foot landing. Then again, slight anatomic variations among people are something to keep in mind. If you have proper body awareness, you can actually feel what's less straining for your joints. Pain is a useful sign of our bodies, that some people are willing to neglect because someone else told them to run in a certain way.

    My coach taught me more about the Arms. He taught, and it works amazingly well, that the motion is more about pulling back on the elbow to throw the body forward. Also that while the hands do not cross your body, you bring them from the chest height to approx hips. He said that when you watch pro marathoners from the back, you can not see their hands...

    After 60 years of running here's some advice; One: run with
    zero drop shoes, no heel height (but not barefoot shoes) make sure you have
    cushioning. Two: don't run any further than 6 miles 3 times a week. Three:
    don't time yourself. Four: don’t do marathons. Five: the important one don’t join
    a running club; the reason, you’ll end up ignoring 2, 3 and 4. If that happens
    you’ll end up like me and 90% of other club runners, requiring new knees because
    your cartilage will be gone. Another bit of advice just ignore the above and
    get a bike.

      @@shinedelpilar2404 No where near the same impact; unless you are going to run on sand forget about long distance running on hard surfaces or hill running. I was a marathon and hill/fell runner. I'm now 72 and I was forced to stop ten years ago; but even when I turned 50 I knew the writing was on the wall, but I like many others ignored it. Should have swapped to a bike at that point,.
