FEATURED ARTICLE
RUNNER'S WORLD (UK)
September, 2008
RUN DIFFERENT
Biomechanics expert Lee Saxby was a fairly conventional running coach until he met Dr. Nicholas Romanov; then his whole outlook on running changed. Romanov, an Olympic triathlon coach, introduced Saxby to the Pose Method, a new running style favored by 2006 World Triathlon Champion Tim Don. "Romanov blew my biomechanics education right out of the water,' says Saxby. "I realized we'd all been running in the wrong way all this time. It wouldn't surprise me if all the top runners are using the Pose Method 10 years down the line."
BECOME A POSE-R
What is the Pose Method? According to Saxby, it's all about utilizing gravity. "When we run we're continually about to topple over," he says. "Our natural reaction is to place our foot forward to break the fall. Then we push off again and repeat the process. This is conventional running acceleration followed by immediate deceleration." The Pose Method claims to eliminate the deceleration. Instead of trying to break the fall, the idea is to be continually on the edge of toppling, so that gravity becomes your friend. This is achieved through shorter, staccato strides with a very light forefoot landing which underneath the hip, rather than in front of it. "Pose is commonly associated with landing on the ball of the foot rather than the heel," says Saxby. "But it's really about keeping a steep angle from the ankle and not bending at the hip. That's the difficult bit, as we naturally want to bend at the hip for fear of falling."
RUN BAREFOOT
The best way to understand the Pose Method is to run barefoot. "The thick soles of running shoes mean we can't feel when we're landing properly. Take your trainers off and see if you still want to land heavily on your heel," says Saxby. This, he argues, is the main cause of injuries – and that adopting the Pose Method should eliminate most of them. "The fact that 85 per cent of people give up running because of injury is unacceptable – it makes it clear we're doing something wrong," he says.
