Too Much Too Soon

We have all done it....wanting to get our value for money and taste every dish on the all-inclusive holiday menu.

You arrive at the hotel dining room for breakfast and make sure you indulge in the continental breakfast, the full fry-up and don't forget the extra pastries.

The same is repeated at lunch and dinner with 4 courses and not to mentions the cocktails.

Now your sitting there wondering weather its safe to move as you feel woozy from the indulgent feast.

It's only the first day of the holidays and you have already over done it!

This is very like the situation runners find themselves in when they get tendon pain of the achilles or knee.

They may have just gotten over an injury or registered for a marthon.

They feel fresh and motivated to hit their high expectations and start training harder and longer to get fitter "quicker".

The number one reason for getting tendon pain is by going beyond your capacity and loading them too much, too fast, too far, too intense and too soon.

This causes your tendon to get irritated and painful and sets you back with your training.

You have over done it with your training load!

If you are struggling with tendon pain due to running and need help in getting out of pain DM me to book a Running Assessment.

Do you get sore shins when you run??🏃🦵🏻😫

It might be a running injury called Medial Tibial Stress Syndrome(MTSS). MTSS is a repetitive stress injury of the front to the inside of your shin bone/muscles. Most shin splints can be controlled by managing the stress that is applied to it by manipulating the following variable:

1️⃣How often, how hard & how far you run
2️⃣ Running Technique or form
3️⃣ Training Surface and shoes
4️⃣ Improve muscle strength

The diagram above reference to some of the possible factors associated with MTSS

Forget about foot strike it’s all about WHERE your foot lands in relation to your body!

Don’t let your leg turn into a pole vault. Using your legs like in the pole vault is an aggressive technique to use when running. When we look at the stress that is put into the pole during a jump we see it bends excessively. Fortunately our bones don’t bend but this force has to go somewhere when we reach with an outstretched leg. Usually the shin, knee or back are likely areas of the body to be loaded more.

Instead, we should use the legs more like a spring to transfer energy to move us in a forward direction. Landing closer to our body allows us to keep a flex in the knee which can generate energy to push us in a forward direction, making it less stressful on the body.

Land closer to you and push back strong. Repeat again.

Are you getting shin pain when you run???

Looking at your running technique can help help identify causes of shin pain.

One possible factor is a high foot angle when landing. This usually can increase stress on the shin muscles and cause pain on the front and inside of the shin bone.

Don’t get caught up with the heel strike landing rather look at how large the angle is between the ground and your foot when initially landing on the ground.

Book in for your running NCT to check what might be causing your running a he’s and pains.

Why your knees hurt when you run and how you should fix it.
“You shouldn’t run. It’s bad for your knees!”

This is a cop out answer used when a professional is unsure. It’s much easier to say this than to take the time to teach someone more efficient running mechanics or technique.

I’m passionate about changing this mentality. At Runfit we believe in putting in the time next efforts help reduce running injuries for your physical and mental health.
