RUNNING ADVICE GIVES YOU PIECES

Learn What Connects Them

Most running advice begins with something visible: foot strike, cadence, overstriding, knee lift, or forward lean.

Each cue draws attention to one piece of running. But without understanding how the movement happens, it is difficult to know what the cue changes—or when one instruction contradicts another.
POSE METHOD TEACHES THE RELATIONSHIPS
One System. Three Elements.
  • POSE — The body organized on support
  • FALL — Gravity moving the body forward
  • PULL — The action that changes support
