    He is amazing. Racewalking is a great way to exercise outdoors and not get as beat up as when running. I ran for 49 years and wore out the cartilage in my right hip. I couldn't run any longer, but when the gym shut down during Covid, all I could do is walk. I got faster and faster, attended a racewalking clinic, and this is what I do now.
    You get 1/3 of the musculoskeletal shock in racewalking versus running. It's far more difficult than running. I'm a good minute per mile faster when my technique is good than when it isn't.
    My form is not bad, but someone who can racewalk really fast is truly an amazing athlete. If you're a racewalker, you'll probably be the only one in your neighborhood. You get noticed; in a good way.

      Same here! After 15 years of running marathon, I am ready to retire of running and I find this race walk is amazing and it allowed me to continue participating marathon with race walk and low impact is better for my knees! R knee with meniscus tears , it never feels the same! I hope I can find race walk clinic here around Monterey CA!

    In addition i would like to know what the things we should eat before race

    • @perskarlstrom
      @perskarlstrom  2 місяці тому

      Shouldn't be an issue. As long as you don't have pain or other health related issues. Everyone can learn the technique and movement.
      Pre race diets is something I'm thinking about making a video about

    straight LEG rule not straight Knee Perseus....
    we bend at the knee so you can call it the bent knee rule

      @perskarlstrom  Рік тому +1

      Yes, it's called the straight leg rule. My mistake thinking too much in Swedish 😄
