Learn to Run Properly at CrossFit Quantum
From http://www.posetech.com/
CrossFit Quantum coaches are certified to teach the CrossFit Endurance curriculum. We teach you:
- How to run with correct mechanics to reduce pain and injury and to improve race speed.
- How to structure your training program for general fitness or for race performance.
- Why traditional endurance training programs will leave you tired, injured and performing
below your capacity. - How to eat for health and performance.
Running is a skill that takes practice to master. Just like you would not start in the sport of
Olympic Weightlifting or gymnastics without a qualified coach, running is also technical in nature
and needs proper coaching to become proficient. If you want to begin running, do it responsibly
and get the proper training and program design. Avoid the common pitfalls that lead to pain,
injury, weakness and stalled performance. If you have wanted to learn to run but were afraid,
this is the best place to start!
