Hi there! I’m Javier Robles Martín, from the first year of Bachillerato. During this last assessment, we were focusing on body expression and endurance in our Physical Education lessons. In this way, we’ve worked not only strength and flexibility, but also speed. Consequently, I decided to share with you guys a video teaching how to get started with your running routine. Sometimes, beginners believe that running is just that; travelling long distances at maximum speed until they get exhausted and uncapable of even breathe. They are utterly misguided. After putting on our sneakers and get out to the freezing morning, we have to consider the following tips: - Suitable footstrike: When running, many people tend to arrive at the floor using the heel of their foot. This could be very harmful for us, given that the gravity force might provoke a “chain effect of pain”, that can go up our knees and hip and cause even injuries (it is called breaking force). The correct way to run, though, is to land underneath our centre of mass; in other words, we should land with our midfoot. If we follow this advice we would avoid pains and we’ll be able to run faster as well. - Leg motion: We must be aware of lifting our heel after the foot comes back. Moreover, when the leg isn’t touching the ground, it must be placed in a parallel position with regard to the surface. - Correct position of the hips and torso: Just before we start running, we should be placed in a completely stretched position, and then pull our hips and pelvis forward so thus we can lift our knees easier and more efficiently. Then, we have to run “tall”, I mean, we should keep a straight line in our whole body, by means of a chest elevation. This step will help us to take more easily breathings. - Arm motion: They must swing and go straight forward and backward, rather than doing a side to side movement. In addition, they must be positioned approximately at a 90o angle with the elbow joint. This is basically all. I really hope all these tips have been useful for you! See you the next time!
Hi! I'm Sofía de la Parte from the first year of Bachillerato. I choose to comment Javier´s video because I considered that is a really interesting video. It show us some running techniques for learn how to run properly. During this assessment, we were practising our endurance running outside for 30 minutes more or less. We have been practicing resistance for many years, but I think we have a lot to improve. This video is really good to learn hot to do it ok. The video give us the following tips: suitable footstrike, leg motion, correct position of the hips and torso and finally the arm motion. I recommend you to show this video. I hope you like my comment, bye!!!
Hi there! I am María Fernández from first year of Bachillerato. I decided to comment Javier's video becouse introduce you to a running rutine. It saws us how to run properly for not making us any ilness, as Javier says, we should land with our midfoot. This also will improve our speed. As I see, the video also teach how to run with the correct position of hips and torso and that we should have an arm motion while we run. Definitely, is a good video to improve our form of running and our speed. As Sofia says, I also recommend you to show this video. - bye!
