Tips 1. Strides. Striding exercises 2. Hip flexor stretch. Lunge with knee touching the ground 3. Downhill long strides repeats 4. Drive knee up and out, drive knee up and in 5. Yoga / flexibility motions
-
Plyometrics and strength training is also really critical. Explosive power = longer stride length
-
Awesome tips. Thank you SO MUCH for doing this. I definitely need to do these to improve mine.
-
I think I've become obsessed with your channel in a good way of course! Quality content. These tips have really been helping me improve my runs!! Love from Trinidad
-

-

-
Great Video Ben. Thanks for the insight.
-
My running is going great. Two days ago, I ran a 5k in 19:58 in humid weather. I have been focusing on high cadence and I think that longer strides will help me get even faster.
-
Ben this is so useful, thank you. I'm on week 2 of a half marathon training plan
-
Another very helpful video. Thank you. I'm going to implement some of these awesome tips, and hopefully after awhile I'll reap with improvements.
-
I think I've already been doing some of these without thinking about it which is good to know. I'll probably start doing strides instead of just one final sprint at the end of my runs, and might start going to a yoga class instead of just doing the videos, my ability in pilates has improved a lot by going to classes. Great video, thanks!
-
Extremely motivating Ben, Thank you and keep up thoses miles! :)
-
Some great videos and advice, very informative! thank you. hopefully will help me to hit some new pbs!

Hi Ben, another great helpful video with top notch content. I'll be putting these tips into practice to help increase my speed and stride length. For the first time I today I checked my cadence and it's averaging 180 so chuffed with that. Pleased to learn you took on board my suggestion of including yoga as part of your training. It's helped me so much over the years. Keep up the good work and thank you!
-

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and ideas. I will definitely will try a few of the shared ideas. Also 100% agreement with adding Yoga poses to the routine. I started back in November and every rest day I do a session and has helped me a lot with feeling more comfortable during runs and my form.

Great tips as always, bro 👍
