    I thought hip flexors would be on the list but I guess that is only for sprinting. Though a lot of it is counterintuitive. Because the muscles you mentioned are in the direct application of force to the ground. However to run faster it is more about efficiency than maximum output of force. For example max force production has serious diminishing returns when you are talking about 6 or 9 times the amount force compared to bodyweight. Therefore indirect methods to assist running faster becomes more important like the use of the hip flexors push to create opposing force in the other leg or abductors and gluteus medius for stability or having overall lower body weight.

      @Here Comes Salvation Actually pulling your leg up increases the amount of force onto the ground. Equal opposite reaction. The key to sprinting isn't actually more force. It is actually efficiency. Which is power to weight ratio. Because the human muscle can only produce so much force per pound. You are only going to run faster at the highest levels when you do things that indirectly increase force into the ground. For example hip flexors or arm swing, etc.

    I appreciate this information. Especially about the calves. I have to be very careful when re-integrating speed into my training or my calves will really tighten up and become injured.

    Keep doing what you're doing! The more scientifically-based Fitness channels there are the better-off people will be. The only piece of advice I would offer it to work on your delivery. People who are more focused on the content may not care very much but it can sometimes distract from your message if you do not communicate as clearly. Otherwise I appreciate your direct honest and scientific approach to this topic.

    I'm all about the soleus! I do barbell "creep walks" which I load heavy with a barbell on my back (like when squatting), then march in place with my knees bent and standing on the balls of my feet. When I rerack the barbell my soleus muscles feel extremely strong and I feel weightless. This is an isometric soleus movement in a way (because my foot is keeping my heel off the floor the entire time), though, so I also do single leg calf raises with straight and bent knees. I'm a 6'2, 240lb distance runner and my ankles and feet have never troubled me because I hit my soleus hard.

    Very good info. I have seen my calves atrophy more with age. Running used to be enough, but I will add regular resistance training!

    Hey! Thanks for this video, it was really helpful! A question: Does running "stretch“ your muscles? Like make your legs appear leaner in comparison to weight training making your muscles expand? Or is that just a myth spread on the internet?

    I've got plantar fasciitis in both feet, splints and the doctor says it's because my Achilles tendons are tight, I don't really know how to work them out, he gave me stretches but what else can I do?

    These numbers are suprising but i guess it would be different for sprinting where you are accelerating? Sprinters tend to have small calves, generally no bigger than the untrained population but almost always have large glutes and hamstrings.

    Very interesting, but most of the force coming from the soleus muscles is elastic energy recoil though, it's not pure force.. that's why elite athletes have small calves

    I have had lower back pain on the right side for 2 years now, not due to the disc or spine. Every time you run fast or endurance, you will feel a lot of back pain. What is the problem? I have been exercising my glutes for 1 month and feel better? So what should I do to completely stop that?

      I’m not a trainer, but I think core is the key there. You may be running with an anterior pelvic tilt. As I’ve been re-training, becoming conscious of tucking the tailbone under helped too

    Im an mixed race Man. However, I have been blessed by my God, to have a full booty. And i have definitely noticed that I can outrun most average black Men and other types of men. And after I go running extremely hard, I feel the most exercise pain, coming from my butt, and my Hamstrings. And, they also look like two Giant sized "Biceps". 😂lol. So im thinking 🤔, that"butts"🍑 are running muscles.
