How do you know you’re improving?

•Your 30-minute runs start to feel easier
•Your pace increases while your heart rate stays the same
•Your pace stays the same, but you can maintain that heart rate for longer runs

How can you progress or regress your running?
•Once you can comfortably complete 30-minute easy runs, progress by adding 5–10 minutes to one run each week
•If 30 minutes of continuous running is too difficult, perform walk–jog intervals
-Start with 1 minute of running and 1 minute of walking
-Gradually increase the running interval by 1 minute as long as your heart rate remains stable

Start with 2-3x a week, 30 min of super easy runs :)

Many runners have been told they need to strength train, but how?

Here are several major concepts I keep in mind when working with runners in the gym to complement the miles they accumulate on the road.

My goal is not only to get them stronger in the gym, but to also help them stay injury-free during their training block. Many of them also feel an improvement in their running economy, technique, and pace.

Landing is where a lot of ACL re-injuries actually happen — not the jump.
You can jump high, move fast, and still be at risk if you can’t control how you come back down.

After ACL surgery, it’s not just about producing force… it’s about absorbing it.
Clean, controlled landings mean:
• better force distribution
• less stress on the knee
• more confidence with higher level movements

If you skip this step, you’re building performance on top of poor mechanics.
And that’s usually when problems show up.
Train the landing just as much as the takeoff.

Big shoutout to for this simple, yet highly effective framework for teaching athletes how to land safely.

The subclavius is a sneaky one. Know how and when to get after it, and you’ll have much better outcomes (both as a clinician and as someone who wants to help themselves)!

Send this to a friend who can’t seem to kick their shoulder pain.

Quality movement > quick fixes.

The hardest part about getting into running is staying consistent… especially with a busy, unpredictable schedule.

The best way to start (and keep going) is keeping it realistic: start suuuuper easy, run for time (15–30 min, 2–3x/week), and build the habit.

Before you train pace or speed, train consistency and discipline first.

You got this :)

Single-leg squat strength doesn’t just happen — it’s built step by step.

The key is choosing the right exercise for where you’re currently at, while still considering where you want to be.

Build it the right way, and everything after gets easier.Rush the process, and you’re just building on shaky ground.

Youth athletes don’t need more specialization — they need more variety.
Playing different sports builds better movement, reduces injury risk, and develops more complete athletes.

Speed, coordination, balance, strength — no single sport trains it all.

The goal isn’t early success. It’s long-term development.

Let them explore. Let them play. The skills will transfer.

Swayback positioning is just a strategy your body is using to push against the ground to keep you upright. When you’ve lost space to push from - particularly through the back of the pelvis - you’ll have to find a different strategy. For some of you, a swayback is where it’s at.

Yes you need to train the glutes, but that’s also just one piece of the puzzle.
