🏃♀️ New to running? Start strong and stay injury-free with these 4 key principles: 🏃♂️
🔹 Load Management – Ease into it. Your tissues need time to adapt. Too much too soon = higher risk of injury.
🔹 Pace Management – Run at a pace where you can still hold a convo. It’s not about speed, it’s about *sustainability*.
🔹 Distance Management – Quality over quantity. Start with shorter distances and build gradually – your body will thank you.
🔹 Progression Management – Be consistent, not aggressive. Stick to the 15-20% rule (no more than 20% increase in volume per week).
Running should *build you up*, not break you down. Take the smart path, not the painful one. 🧠💪
