About this episode
Have you ever faced the frustration of persistent running injuries that keep you from enjoying running on the trails?
In this episode, We sit down with Dr. Matthew Silver, author of Built to Run, to explore practical strategies for running pain-free and overcoming common injuries. Dr. Silver delves into key topics like the importance of counter rotation, hip mobility, and the mind-body connection in running. He shares valuable tips on improving mobility, strength, and running form, and emphasizes the critical role of breathing in enhancing performance. Listeners will gain insights into the benefits of CO2 training, the significance of hip mobility, and how paying attention to movement patterns can reduce injury risks.
