FAST RUNNING with Pose Method
When we think about fast running or how to run faster our common sense image is about muscle power, efforts, stride length, strong push off, full leg extension, some kind of huffing and puffing. These are all "symptoms", which we are familiar with and easily associate with fast running. So when we are getting into a necessity or desire to run fast we are trying to replicate these "symptoms". In layman terms, just copy them. But it is very strange to do this because looking on running of elite athletes we are observing just the opposite. There is no huffing...

SLOW RUNNING
There is no question that we need to know how to run slow, because it is the biggest part of our exercise, no matter what we are training for: racing or health improvement. But from my own experience I found out that paradoxically, it is difficult to run slow with a perfect technique. I found out that a slow run creates mechanical and psychological difficulties of executing the major components of the Pose Method of Running. And as a consequence, it could create anatomical and physiological discomfort and even lead to injuries. So what are the difficulties of slow running?...

HOW TO DO THE FIRST STEP IN RUNNING
The first step is important in any running because it sets a proper or wrong pattern of repetitive movement and basically defines the whole run. So, we could say that our run is as good as its first step. Most runners have no or very slight idea about how they do the first step. It comes from a seeming insignificance of it and most coaches and athletes are usually not paying too much attention to it. And indeed, why we should pay attention to the first step, when a whole running technique is something that we consider natural, meaning that...

POSE WALKING TECHNIQUE
There is a certain interest in the Pose Walking (PW) technique*, which I am trying to satisfy through our short video clip and the present article. There is no possibility to present all aspects of this topic within this short article, so it’s just a brief introduction and some instructions. In spite of quite a significant difference between running and walking they have similar or common mechanical and biomechanical premises. Because we live in the gravity field we subordinate to this law no matter what kind of movement we produce at the moment. Walking in this case is no different...

FOOT LANDING IN RUNNING
There is a discussion on the Pose Tech Running Forum about the foot landing, which goes around Jeremy Huffman´s comments on this matter. I found it interesting how many interpretations and explanations came up during this discussion. There are some proper visions of this problem, but without any system of reference, which doesn´t allow us to accept this or that point of view expressed by the opponents and allows the use of quite different interpretations and “excuses” for landing this or that way. Nevertheless, the underlying reasons for all our actions are in our reality and our relations with this...
