"Your Running Technique Is The Biggest Single Factor In Your Performance - How Effective Is Yours?"
Increase Speed and Stamina
Reduce Injuries and Frustration
Your running technique really is the biggest factor in your performance. It's not your fitness, nutrition or even motivation, although obviously these are important , it's how you run. Unfortunately, most runners fail to assess their technique and therefore neglect a crucial element of their performance. If the way you run is less than efficient, all that time and effort you devote to your training will not deliver the results you deserve.
Your technique determines how fast, how far and how long you can run. It's also a crucial element when it comes to avoiding the sort of injuries that could stop you running - a good technique can dramatically reduce the amount of stress you place upon your body.
For example. take a look at this runner below.

For example. take a look at this runner below.
Photo (A) shows a runner with a typical heel to toe foot strike. Notice how the leg is straight when the heel makes contact with the floor. This will not only send the shock directly into his back it also causes him to lose speed as he literally brakes each time his foot lands.
Photo (A) also shows his head is pulled back by tension in the neck and shoulders which impedes his coordination and leads to more muscles being used than is necessary - in other words - more effort.

The exercises and techniques I use in my program brought about the changes you can see in photos (B) and (C). Here is a more relaxed upright style allowing the feet to strike away from the heel. This gives a springier feel to your running so you can get a better kick back from the ground to propel you forward - see photo (C).
This significantly reduces the stresses of impact your body experiences with every step you take. This means less effort as your stride length increases and you get further with each step - or more bang for your buck!

"After months of struggling with 'runner's knee' I found your 'release the brake' technique
helped a great deal. I'm now back up to 10K and as yet I've had no more problems with my
knee. Excellent program - thank you!" Jack Connor, Delaware, United States
How To Correct Your Running Technique
I'm sure you'll know the importance of which part of the foot you land on. However, in the 15 years I have been coaching runners I would say over 95% land on their heels and cause undue stress on their joints and slow themselves down. Ideally you should land on the ball to get the full benefit of your stride as demonstrated in the photos above.
Yet, when it comes to changing this, it's not as easy as it first seems. Unfortunately, in an attempt to land on the ball, many runners make thing worse by trying to place their foot and end up fixing their ankle joints which reduces efficiency further and usually leads to injury.
The same goes when trying to increase stride length.
Both these fundamental aspects of your technique can be achieved but only after you address your concept of movement and what I call body knowledge. This involves learning how to move with less effort by reducing the resistance many unknowingly bring to their running. I say, unknowingly because once something becomes a habit you won't be aware you're doing something that's not helping.

"Hello Roy, I would really like to thank you for your program. It really helped my
run yesterday. When I was getting tired I really thought about your techniques
and found it took the tension out of my upper body. I was pleasantly surprised
as my toes do not hurt today unlike last week, so I must of changed something
for the best. Thanks again!" Clara Baines, Northampton, UK.

Roy Palmer MSTAT
Dear Fellow Runner,
My name is Roy Palmer and I'm a runner and teacher of the remarkable movement system known as The Alexander Technique. Over the last 15 years I have taught many runners how to move in a way to reduce stress on their muscles and joints. The results are often remarkable with many commenting they never knew just how difficult they were making it for themselves.
You have probably never thought about taking lessons in how to run yet your technique could be the cause of static performances, running injuries and limited stamina.

If you were taking up golf, tennis or a martial art you wouldn’t consider starting without instruction. Yes I know most of us assume we can all run because it’s just like walking only quicker, it’s only putting one foot in front of the other – right?
Well you would have thought so, but from my own experience and from working with many runners I believe few adults run ‘naturally’, that is, most of us have at least one bad habit interfering with our running. A poor running technique may not be immediately obvious but eventually the aches and pains start to turn into irritating injuries and if you are not careful these turn into great big injuries that stop you running!
I can show you how to assess and change your technique to take your running to the next level AND if you don't see a significant improvement in your performance I will give you a FULL REFUND.
