Running is an essential skill for strong bones, healthy joints, and feeling great, yet some people still don’t know how to run properly. Here are some common mistakes people make while running and how to run faster in general.
One of the most common mistakes people make while running is wearing the wrong type of shoes, such as sandals, dress shoes, shoes with raised surfaces, or shoes without cushioning. This can lead to Iliotibial Band syndrome.
“Iliotibial is the tendon that connects the knee and the hip and when inflamed it may cause stabbing in your knee when you run. An improper and unsupportive running shoe can cause this syndrome”-Methodist McKinney hospital
Another common mistake is running too much too early. This means the fact that many inexperienced people run too far too quickly without proper rest. One way to fix this is to do a reality check on what you can actually do to keep yourself from over-exercising.
Another problem inexperienced runners have is poor upper body shape. Some runners swing their arms back and forth too much and are more likely to get stuck or unable to breathe properly. Some people keep their arms up. Holding your arms like this will make you feel even more tired and you will begin to feel tightness and tension in your shoulders and neck.
One way you can fix this is by raising his hands to hip height so that they lightly touch your hips. Arms at 90 degrees, and elbows to either side of your body. The arm should be rotated at the shoulder (not the elbow) so that the arm rocks back and forth.
