Become Your Own (and BEST) Running Coach

– The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 105 with Valerie Hunt

Valerie Hunt has been a strength and conditioning coach for 30+ years. She spent the first part of her career in a traditional gym as a personal trainer and aerobics director/teacher. In 2001 she left to open her own gym, XpressFItness, a group workout studio combining strength and endurance for runners.

Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Valerie Hunt about teaching yourself to run better.

Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week’s show:

- How adults have a harder time trying new things because of fear.

- Why people should focus on their connection to their feet when running.

- How running requires good technique just like dance or gymnastics.

- How watching yourself run on video can help you improve your running form.

- Why runners need to push off with their back foot and land on their front foot.
