BAREFOOT RUNNING
Dear all, running barefoot is a good base for learning to run proper, even though the notion of proper technique is not established yet among scientists, coaches and athletes. So we are using in our explanations something what we think is a proper technique, but no one yet got the final truth or proof, particularly those who are asking about the scientific proof. We are operating more with our experience, intuition, limited knowledge, beliefs and passion. And now barefoot running comes as a major component of learning the proper running technique.

WHAT KIND OF STRENGTH DO WE NEED IN RUNNING?
If the question “Do we need strength in running?” is not a question anymore, then the question, “What kind of strength we need there?” is still unclear. That is why I would like to discuss this topic in a short description of the logic of strength exercise use in running. It is no secret that muscle strength is necessary in running to provide for the body’s ability to interact with the ground while the body moves from one support to the other.
