An excellent result from the past few months was meeting and helping him get back to (very fast) running after struggling for a year with a persistent calf issue.Not wanting to retire from a fledgling running career just yet he asked if I could be of service.
Starting with a biomechanical analysis with quickly identified the weak areas in terms of technique and using a series of tests figured out why his body was moving the way it was and why he was landing and propelling himself the way he was. Calf strength and indeed resilience was less of an issue, more that he had lost the ground reaction he once had and he was collapsing into a very dorsiflexed position on every step.
Cut to just a few months later and David is now running regularly again and the pace ever increasing. Well done to you David, for your efforts, your motivation and willingness to work to make real progress.
