EP 88: RUN TRAINING COACHING SESSION ON DEVELOPING CADENCE, FORM DRILLS, AND PERIODISED PROGRAMMING

In this episodes Running Hot Coaches Lisa Tamati and Neil Wagstaff discuss the importance of cadence, how you can increase your cadence and why you should care. 

What time of your season you should be focusing on your cadence and how hard and fast the 180 steps per min rule is or not.

They discuss form drills and technique and why you should have a off season time during the year when you can focus on these things while doing lower mileage and how the brain works in regards to reprogramming yourself.

They also discuss the long runs in your programmes and why it perhaps isn't as high as you might think it should be. The benefits of back to back training and the importance of the strength and mobility parts of the training pus

The old traditional high mileage models, doing predominantly long slow training sessions work to a point but often lead to a high incidence of injury, in fact over 90% of all marathon runners are injured every year according to studies. Injuries to knees rate high as do calf problems achilles, plantar fasciitis and more so is there a more effective way to train.

Why does it work when you are young doing this high mileage system but often lead to problems as the miles and years pile up and is there a better way.
