I'm getting back into running and this is really helpful and most importantly improving my motivation. I'm very grateful. thank you please keep on doing what you're doing.
The Run Experience when using the metronome I put it on 91, should one foot land on the beat? I’m a little confused on how to use that to run at a decent pace!
My god... I was about to ask you a question leg motion - like, whether am I supposed to use as less energy to pick up legs from the ground during a marathon, or should I pull my legs with force so that my feet are moving as if I were riding a bycicle... And now I have the answer! Thank You!!!
Hey, found your vids on here this evening and have spent at least an hour watching lots of them, have to say that they r great! U explain a lot of the aspects of running very well!!!! keep up the great work!! thanks!!!!!!
Terrific video! You make it really understandable and approachable. Especially for someone just getting into running. I have a quick question. i've been slowly building mileage and i've been working on my form and cadence on a treadmill thinking it would be less punishing on my joints vs asphalt. What are the pros and cons of treadmill vs running outside?
Glad we're able to help you, William! Great question. Outside offers TONS of great benefits. Besides more exciting scenery, fresher air, and an entirely different sense of "community".. running outside can be very enjoyable, impact-wise. We believe that well-practiced running mechanics and proper maintenance on the body via strength & mobility training can ensure injury-free running, no matter where you are. Outside, dirt or gravel trails assist in making your run less-impactful on the joints (versus running on pavement)...but ideally you will start to run well enough to not feel roughed up by any surface :) Get outside!
stride length is really a function of speed. so what you're really saying is I find it difficult to run faster. We do too sometimes :) Just know that these are connected...but start with cadence and turnover first and that stride length will come!
You stay in the video that you'll put a link to the metrotimer but there is no link. I went on to the App Store and there is a ton of Metro timers so a little bit more info would be awesome thanks!
Hi coach, How long is standard stride length for height 172cm? Saw from watch stride length is about 1m (cadence 165)for run pace 5.50m/km, is it normal? Any advice? 😉
Great video Nate, got a q though.. When i run at an easy pace i usually maintain a cadance of 90, but as soon as i pick up the pace the cadence goes up to 93/94 meaning i´m no longer maintaining the cadence..Is that a sign that i have to work on something in particular or just a natural result of the increased pace? Blessings !!!
Also you can mix up your stride length to maintain cadence but increase speed. Longer stride at same cadence will still allow for increased pace. Stride length should usually be altered according to terrain (downhill, uphill, flat, etc).
Hi there. Love your videos. Have been watching many of them as I want to improve my technique. My issue is that my left leg tends to go a bit sideways at the back and my friends are telling me thats because I dont move my legs up front from my hips. That I move the legs from the knees only (dont know if I will explain it correctly and even I am not usre if I understand what I need to do differently, :):) ). I am doing the drills high knees and pulling legs back to my buttocks. any advice other then that ? Thx
Sounds like you could use some hip opening exercises. You can check out a good video for that here: facebook.com/therunexperience/videos/p.1011510975615940/1011510975615940/?type=2&theater
No dumb questions! You will run 3 times up the hill at specific cadence- each time for 30 seconds, then walk or jog back. Then 3 times at specific cadence on flat ground for 30 seconds each, with walk or jog recovery back. Then lastly repeat same 3 rounds of 30 seconds each on a downhill. Hope this helps!
I am starting to run again and love your videos

I’m new to running and a heel striker. Using riding a bike as an analogy gave me an aha moment. Thank you so much! Love your videos!!
Thank you! I was told I need to shorten my stride and discovered I have NO idea how. This is a big help.
Nate Helming... just goin' helmeting. Love the videos man! Y'all are doing great things with this channel!
Love this I’m
New to running and I really want to get good at this !
You can do it! Slow, steady, persistent 👏

Great content, thanks Coach Nate!
This makes sense. Thanks Coach Nate.

yes a little bit of both :)
Loved this video - so helpful!

A great correlation between cycllng and run.
I tried a metronome without success.
Lots of great advice, thank you! (But one thing to mention - you've spelled cadence incorrectly:)
We caught that! Thanks. At least it's correct in description :)
Nate do you offer any running groups? Thank you for your videos!
We do a sunrise run at 6 am from Duboce Park in SF on Thursdays and a 6:15 am strength workout on Wednesdays at Palace of Fine Arts in SF. Both free!
I find it difficult to increase the strike length during running but don't know how to fix it. Appreciate your advice.

When you talk striding with beginners, don’t EVER forget to talk dangers of overstriding.

So sorry, Kalena! Will fix this asap.

@@TheRunExperience thank you! Any recommendations for Android?

Higher cadence is good to work on! It's a result of quicker hamstring engagement and therefore pulling.

I feel like a complete noob but 3 by 30 seconds? Does that mean 3 steps per 30 seconds? That doesn't sound right to me....
