HEAD POSITION IN RUNNING
The head position is a crucial point in making the muscular system of the whole body engaged in a specific way, which could be more or less efficient and balanced depending on the head position orientation. Therefore, as a consequence, the movement of the body could be more or less balanced and efficient, as well. The base for this influence lies in the anatomical and physiological structure of the head. With such organs as vestibular apparatus in the ears and cerebellum, directly defining and regulating the body's position in space, the head has an exceptional influence on any movement. This...

ANKLE SPRAIN
It is quite a frequent injury in runners, and not only the beginners, or amateurs, but in elite, as well. It happens during running on an uneven surface, on trails full of rocks, roots, hidden holes and at a sudden change of surface. Most often ankle sprain goes laterally – outside, damaging ligaments and tendons of the foot, which could take a runner out of activity for quite a long time.

But guess, how many people have a luxury of being a coach in...

CHANGE OF SUPPORT DRILL
This element is the foundation of the Pose Method of running and basically is the model of Pose technique. As a model it is a very simple form, a position simulating very closely, but not fully, real running. Change of support is the function of falling forward from the Pose, which is a vertical and balanced position of the body on support. As you know, you can't move forward unless you move out of balance-lean forward. This is where the forward movement comes from. But this is only half of the deal. If you don't get back to the falling...
