Running: Can Less Be More?

In the old days it was thought that the more miles you logged the stronger runner you would become.  We now know that this is not only wrong, but it can also have the opposite effect.  Throughout many sports it is now a common theme to say that one must train smarter and not harder.  For running this equates to not just running more junk miles, but rather spending less time running quality miles.  Be precise with your training, have a purpose, and know when and how often to shut it down.

One of the most forgotten parts of a training plan is recovery.  Most runners are so concerned with getting in all the miles and all the various aspects of training that they don’t give enough respect to the times when they are not running.

Every time you go for a run your body is put through stress and tissue breakdown.  In response to this your body responds by rebuilding and making things stronger.  This is how muscles get bigger and endurance increases.  However, if the next time you run your body is not fully recovered you will be breaking down tissue that is still in the process of healing.

While doing this once may not cause problems, repeatedly neglecting recovery can lead to tissue damage and injury.  Understanding how to assist the process of recovery can allow you to run more frequently and spend less time healing.  Every person is a little different and for this reason you must figure out what your specific body requires and how you recover best.

There are many different ways to maintain tissue and help speed recovery, such as foam rolling, wearing compression garments, and having regular massages.  However, the biggest key is to really listen to your body and understand what your limits are and when you need to pull in the reigns.

Strength Training and the Runner

When you look at a training plan for a runner you will find various types of runs to improve on the various body systems used in running.  It is no secret that smart training involves sprint work, tempo runs, hills, and distance.  However, to be a really strong runner and avoid injuries you must also utilize strength training.

Most runners think that running alone will make them a stronger runner.  In all other sports strength training is used consistently to improve physical fitness and therefore improve sporting performance.  Running is no different.  Without the proper strength in key muscles your body will not be able to withstand the consistent training runs and/or the higher mileage.  This is why many times people say that they only get pain once they increase to runs with higher mileage.  More often than not this means that crucial muscles are fatiguing early and running form begins to deteriorate.

Keeping good form is essential to not only efficient running, but also to staying injury free.

Aside from working on technique the only way to make certain that your form stays consistent is to make sure that you have adequate muscular strength and endurance.  You do not have to spend hours each day in the gym to gain running strength.  However, it must become part of your training routine if you want to become a stronger runner.

The most important areas that must be addressed are the core (as a unit) and the hips.  The core helps you maintain proper posture which is essential to keeping each stride efficient.  The hip muscles help to keep the pelvis and legs in the correct position.  If hip musculature begins to fail or fatigue then numerous injuries can and will occur.  Not only do the core and hip muscles need to be strong, but they also need to have a high endurance level if you plan on doing long runs.

Understanding the importance of strength training in running is critical if you want to become a better runner.  Work it into your training routine and you will find that runs will become easier and injuries will come around less often.

Taylor Stevenson came to the IR Family on a whim to get a good workout, now he trains to ensure he stays alive in the ministry he serves in, which attempts to put a stop to human trafficking. Taylor has grown up active in Southern California. He is your quintessential Orange County christian young adult.

John Madden is Training for BUDS – Navy Seals

John Madden is a long time friend and brother, so when he said he wanted to get pushed to the edge of his physical potential with Innovative Results, I was honored!

He is pursuing a contract with the Navy SEALs, and needs the mental toughness and physical prowess that can step up to the job and pull him to the end of a very arduous training regimen. I am sure you have all heard the stories of this elite fighting force, and here is the beginning of the story from John Madden’s perspective.

John has already put several large scale accolades under his belt. He is a Marine and served during Operation Enduring Freedom as well as Operation Iraqi Freedom. He’s done fire fighter academy and was a reserve fire fighter. John is a skydiver, surfer, professional swing dancer, and full time fire inspector. He has always been active, but what he is not is a runner. …Well, let’s just say Navy SEALS do a bit of running. Don’t get me wrong he scores in the top percentages of the PST (Pre-Screening Test), but he wants to be at the top, and he wants to build the never-say-quit, never-say-die attitude of all SEALs everywhere.

We are going to take his current physical success, drive it into the ground, stomp on it, get it “wet and sandy,” and then build it on heart, will, and mental toughness.

Stay tuned as his training progresses!
