About this episode
If you want to prevent injuries this year, it's a must to work on your running form and more specifically what is happening at the hips.
When you address what is happening in the single leg position during gait and it becomes stronger and more stable, you significantly decrease your risk for injuries.
This really comes down to strengthening your gluteus medius, but not the way most people see glute med strength.
Listen to todays short, sweet and to the point episode to get all the details on how your hip stability plays a big role in injury prevention.
