Running Course Completed!

Swipe right ➡️

This course dove into advanced gait analysis and diagnostics for runners to help decrease pain, improve performance and increase efficiency.

We talked about common injuries and how to fix: patella femoral knee pain, IT Band issues, Achilles issues, plantar fascia pain as well as bone stress injures & fractures.

We reviewed common drills to improve running form.

Best of all- we discussed what actually WORKS based on the current best evidence we have right now.

Also- Alaska is a very cool state.

Dealing with runners knee? We can help!

Here is (1) stretch that can be helpful for many people to alleviate some of that quad and hip flexor tightness that is often associated with runners knee.

Of course- this is only (1) drill! Typically a thorough rehab program will involve a series of drills and stretches processed and designed for each individual persons needs.
