As running is like bouncing on springs with some concentric muscular effort and mech. range of motion to get propulse, there is indeed a need of vertical oscillation to load the springs. As if the springs are strong, I.e. the tendons and the muscles, there is a less way to load them and a less need for vertical oscillation than if they are weak. A weak runner will automatically use a lower cadence and a superbly trained one will automatically hit a higher one and also save a lot energy because he relies on a higher spring power. If over night his tendons transform to a beginners tendons, the next run he will feel like running on a sandy beach.
But would it even itself out if your striking the ground over 1 km with half the force but twice as many times than a longer stride half as many strikes with more force. Dose wear and tear play a factor. Thanks
Higher cadence = more steps Lower cadence = less steps More steps you take the less you overstride. Meaning less injury. Less steps you take the more you may overstride. meaning a higher chance of injury. Ideally, find what works for you, but if your cadence is too low you may want to bring it up.
Which part is unclear to you? The video clearly indicates higher impact forces with lower cadence. The goal of running is generally to move forward with as little upward movement as possible. Moving upwards is a pure waste of energy and should be minimized. The less vertical movement, the more energy will be left to move forward. Plus, the stress on the joints and ligaments will be less.
Wow that square and octagon analogy was genius!
And misleading at the same time, because it's like comparing 90 spm vs 180 spm. Pentagon vs hexagon would be closer to reality
@@MitrandirHex No its not misleading it gets the point exactly across about how cadence effects someone's running.
I see a lot of blocks running around my location.... Easily the best explanation ever.
An amazing explanation of cadence! Thank you Running Clinic!
I run more like a triangle.
Good that it’s not a flat surface 😂
I run more like a human
Thanks, that was a great explanation of cadence!
Amazing!! Thanks. This makes so much sense. I knew it was steps per minute but this is so helpful :)
This was really helpful! Thank you!
This was exactly what I needed, thank you so much!
This was so much helpful ❤thank you
I created some UK Hardcore 30 Minute 170bpm mixes, i run at 170 so thought i would create a channel and share the mixes.
Wow this was explained so well.
Awesome video keep it up 👍
Straight to the point. Kudos Running Clinic team!!

Well explained video
Great explanation

Good question
Good info... running improvement & minimise injury
I still don't get it... So is higher cadence better than and .ore efficient?
So... Higher cadence+lower stride is generally better ?
Yes.
@@TheSublimeLifestyle So I tried a 180 cadence since then and yeah. It's better.
Really helpful
Wow that's an amazing explaination of cadence.
Perfect video!
My cadence is 195 which is more than normal i wanna to decrease it to 180 without compromise in soeed . How to decrease it?
Longer strides
Is like space streaming 180bpm vs Burst 270bpm in osu!
Umm exuse me? Are u talking about me?
There is no explanation for you
pourrai-je avoir la vidéo en français svp
This is fantastic. Thank you for the explanation!
I run like the green guy with pretty low cadence (165-170 tops) and my heels never touch ground
Useful video.
Man,
Thank you!
How to decrease cadence 😢😢
Can someone explain this to me like if I was 5 years old?
Higher cadence = more steps
Lower cadence = less steps
More steps you take the less you overstride. Meaning less injury.
Less steps you take the more you may overstride. meaning a higher chance of injury.
Ideally, find what works for you, but if your cadence is too low you may want to bring it up.
Buy MI Band 8 it's perfect for measuring steps, cadence, step distance, pulse when walking/running.
Thank you!
Sorry I do 195 step per minutes , easy , but after many km I need calories … I spend many calories maybe , also if I want go faster I do 210
I understand what cadence is
Interesting
My average spm is 165 and the highest goes to around 240. Is it okay❓
it's too high for 800m or above for something less than that it's ok, 240 spm is a sprint
my.spm is 500 million
Merci
After watching this video my knee started to hurt
I'm definitely the block 🙄
If you are running really slowly, it is not efficient to run at high cadence. You will be just shuffling your feet
Wow!!!
Forgot to say we are neither of both so this example is not really good on my personal opinion.... No facts, no proof on here
