4 risky times for running injuries
DESCRIPTION
Runners love to push the limits with their training with more mileage and faster workouts. But that puts them at risk for overuse injuries like IT Band Syndrome, Achilles Tendinopathy, and Plantar Fasciitis. If you know the "danger zones" when you're more at risk for training, you can be more cautious and take better care of yourself. I'll show you in this presentation about running injuries.TRANSCRIPT

During these times, you’re experiencing significant stress
• A new mileage level• Increasing mileage• Frequent max effort races• Running! (it’s new, after all)

And you’re in uncharted territory
How will my body
react?Is an injury
on the horizon?
Am I ready for this??

So here’s what to do…
![Page 18: 4 Risky Times for Running Injuries](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062514/558b979cd8b42abe378b4750/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Don’t do two things at once
Focus on just one goal at a time – increasing mileage, adapting to a new
mileage record, or racing

Take care of yourself*
• Sleep 8-9 hours• Don’t skip your strength work• Do a dynamic warm-up before you run• Be flexible: slow down or run less if necessary• Easy on the partying…

Every piece of your training should be progressive
![Page 21: 4 Risky Times for Running Injuries](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062514/558b979cd8b42abe378b4750/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Because when running isn’t progressive, you end up doing this…

And accomplishing very little

But at Strength Running, I want you
to accomplish all of your goals
so make sure you’re extra careful when you’re building mileage, at a new mileage record, or when racing frequently( )
