Absolutely. I had no idea that I have been doing some of these unconsciously. Now that I am Midfoot striking at the center of mass, I can run faster, smoother, comfortably, more efficiently, no pain, and I learned that by just observing Nicklas Rossner and Eliud Kipchoge run. Using rhythmic techniques are a game changer, as it helps you to focus on pacing which is the key to pace adaptation and running efficiency, whether on hills or straight roads. Once again Nicklas, thanks for sharing. Your insights and sharing from your experience are just amazing
I appreciate it 😄 yeah, it was a lightbulb for me the first time I heard it. It suddenly made sense why it looks so easy when the best race (even though it isn’t)
Smiling is huge. The other stuff is mechanical, but smiling (even faking it) is a psychological boost. And when your brain is happier, your body is happier. Also, people think you’re a little bit crazy and make more room on the path/sidewalk 🤣
It's an amazing feeling. There have been some studies showing that foods high in tyrosine can help produce the feeling more often. But other than that it is highly individual unfortunately. Take note of what you did before it happens and try to establish patterns would be my best advice :)
Thanks man! Needed a fresh haircut for a big sports celebration that I'm hosting in my day job on friday - This motivational boost was just what I needed :)
Great advice! However, while adopting these techniques can be beneficial, individual biomechanics differ, and we should consider personal comfort and injury prevention when adjusting our form.

Thanks for the detailed advice! I especially like the idea of conserving energy by relaxing - that makes sense!

100% :)
Quick question -- any way to tap into that runners' high? When I hit that sweet spot, running feels super easy, like a racehorse.

Haha. Best of luck :D
Sharp haircut, my man. And a great video

If it was as simple as just copying people at the top of their sports, then everybody would, but they can’t
I hear you but if you try and taje some of these on board, just maybe, it'd PB next time.
