Running Injuries

    Leg Stiffness: Implications for Injury & Performance

    James DunneMarch 4, 2014

    I was excited as only a complete run geek can be, when I saw last night that my friend Ian Griffiths had posted another video on his YouTube account!

    Ian (@Sports_Pod) will no doubt agree that some will find the subject matter a bit dry! However in this presentation he manages to do a brilliant job of translating the mechanical concepts surrounding leg stiffness in runners into real-world practical examples, discussing both implications for injury rehabilitation and running performance.

    The target audience for this video presentation is physios and therapists in the clinical world. That said, it's truly a fascinating watch for anybody interested in the mechanics of how we run...

    If you haven't also seen Ian's video on running shoe selection, I'd suggest it as a must watch for all runners and triathletes...
