Pose Technique for running

..... 2 sprained ankles later...... Ive decided to take up my physios advice and do some more running. Finswimming is great for a good cardio and core workout but does nothing to build resilience into your joints. For that you need some form of impact excercise like running, skipping etc. (not cycling) .Ive looked at this Pose technique (see www.posetech.com) for the last month and found it quite helpful. I needed to do something to get my ankles going again. Maybe my running style was a bit heavy on the heel impact before but after a month Im now finding my weekly trail run easier on the legs. If you decide to look into this - do watch out for some very heavy calf loading at first, so take it easy to start with. Also concentrate really hard when going downhill to get the technique right. Its also really hard to try a different running technique.
Ive now stopped using my heavy built up heel type trainers and gone for some very lighyweight ones with thin soles. They make it easier too.
