Members practice their pulling drills against a fixed wall. By pulling your feet under your body we shorten our stride and prevent heel striking, thus eliminating heel striking and tons of impact. Follow us on IG Ventrunexperience

When I first joined the Vent as a staff member we discussed goals/passion projects we had for ourselves. Mine was to write a book and create a community combining strength and conditioning for runners. As I chased that dream I picked up knowledge, confidence, a community and had lots of support along the way. Last night that goal was achieved with the first Vent Run Experience class. It was a GREAT class and am super thankful for all the familiar faces that were in class. Join us next Thursday at 6:30pm The Vent HPC  VRE Member Highlight: @jghoulia .
* 22 minute marathon PR * 0 Pain while running Julia came to me wanting to increase her speed as well as diminish her pain while running. Along with a form analysis and a training plan we met monthly to check in on her training and ensure proper running mechanics. She logged every workout on her calendar and her training was on point! She had a great race and I'm so proud of her, great job Julia! Do you spend most of your day sitting? Do you have full expression of hip flexion and rotation? Do your hips hurt before/after you run? "Fortunately, squeezing in a few 60-second increments of stretching throughout the day can give you the same benefits as devoting one larger chunk of time to mobility, says Kelly Starrett, author of Becoming a Supple Leopard and creator of MobilityWOD.com." Follow along with The Vent coaches and spend 2 minutes, per leg, in pigeon pose. Visit our social media pages for more daily life movement tips. Homepage The Vent Instagram Thanks for Watching! As always, stay posted, stay healthy! Keep Running To have the most efficient foot strike we must pull from the ground every time we run. To understand this movement pattern you can practice with a jump rope. (I love the RX Smart Gear ropes) Step 1: Begin by starting with single jumps Step 2: Continue jumping with only leg pulling from the ground at a time Step 3: Make sure your feet are pulling straight off the ground, through the inseam. You can think foot to beside the knee Step 4: Kiss your heels with the ground every time Step 5: After a few rotations, release the jump rope and continue this form, running out from the jump rope.
