38. Paul Mackinnon: Running technique and gait retraining specialist. Rethinking our approach on gait and our ability to manipulate it to prevent injury, increase efficiency and ultimately run faster

Listen Later

This week I’m thrilled to welcome gait specialist Paul Mackinnon for a deep dive into the art and science of movement.

Paul shares his expertise on gait, biomechanics, and how thoughtful movement patterns help runners stay healthy, move efficiently, and ultimately run faster. We explore the importance of individual mechanics and physics in both boosting performance and preventing injury.

In this episode, we unpack:

  • Why the “180 strides per minute” rule just doesn’t fit everyone
  • How footwear technology has evolved—and what that means for your running form
  • Tips on using a power meter to maximize your training
     …and so much more.

I walked away with fresh insights and I hope you will too. Thanks for tuning in.
