I am a very ... ( 3 months ago by paulfraughton)

I am a very competative athlete (varsity soccer) and I find I'm often unable to train because of injury. I commonly get hamstring strains, have tight hip flexors, and anything else imaginable. If I have been running with a more heel-first form, will that explain some of my problems. Any explanation would be appreciated. My current injury is ITB syndrom. SORE knees. Will this running style take pressure off of my knees?
thanks mate

The heel first ... ( 3 months ago by gofasterinc)

The heel first method does place extensive pressure on your ankle, knee, and hip joint. Basically, it forces your hips to rock from side to side especially when tired during long runs! Think of your entire outside length of your leg extending, every time you land! Also, Tight quads,glutes, and hamstrings will end up bringing the tendons under increased tension. Thus your ITB issue.

The best way to ... ( 3 months ago by gofasterinc)

The best way to resolve ITB is to stretch these muscle groups out! (consists of 10 different muscles). Another good stretch to try on your own first, is to get a white (or is black better) foam roller. You can get these things at a back store. If you try this and it doesn't work, you may be to far gone and have developed scar tissue. If this is the case, then you will need to see a very good massage therapist with thumbs as strong as steel cords to break up that stuff.

It will feel as though they are breaking a glass bottle up on the outside of your knee into small little pieces. We're talking at least 2-3 months of work, and twice as much mental recovery! This happened to me during my first marathon and it was terrible. If I can help just one person prevent this, then I will be a happy man!

You should be a happy man, SO much pain later, I'm virtually pain free and my Legs, joints and body is thanking me. It's comforting to know the pain is doing good. Probably the best thing I've ever learned in terms of athletics/ recovery. Literally I have spent all summer on the floor, almost passing out from pain. Cheers man.
