I have always hated running… well, let’s be fair and call it jogging.  I would always make the excuse, “I am so big, I shouldn’t run that far.”  Truth be told, it felt like torture.  It felt like a lot of pain with a lot of effort…  UNTIL NOW!!

I learned how to run! It is called Pose Technique.  I went from trying to force this huge body off the ground, to falling forward and moving my legs correctly.  My hamstrings were sore after the first workout.  I feel so GOOD about this!!  Eventually, when I get the form down right, it will be “effortless” running… or ah… jogging.

Here is an introductory video via www.crossfit.com.  Click here.  Then click on Intro to Pose Technique Pt 2.

Fun article about weightlifting.  It states that our weightlifting mentality is from studies done years ago.  Time to upgrade!
