Tom Goom ‘The Running Physio’ looks at testing readiness to run and run tolerance, planning a return to running and monitoring response, and uses case studies to illustrate the process.
Many runners fear that strength training will make them slow and muscular. Dr. Claire Minshull explains why this is not the case and which essential strength & conditioning exercises to focus on for endurance performance & injury avoidance.
Trevor Prior takes a look at the past, present & future of orthoses & footwear and discusses how differing shoe types can be used in patient management. How, why and when should orthoses (shoe inserts) be used? Can we select the optimum running shoe?
Matt Fitzgerald, best selling author, Endurance Coach & Nutritionist, discusses how despite the common belief that differences in physiology and lifestyle make elite training methods and dietary habits largely irrelevant to non-elites, Science actually says otherwise.
Nick Knight, Sports Podiatrist, and Dr. Jessica Bruce, founder of Run3D, discuss & demonstrate 2D and 3D options of Gait Analysis for Runners, and how it can be used effectively to tackle running related injury. The presentation includes demos of Run3D software.
Ben Cormack, Creator & Director of Cor-Kinetic, takes a deep dive into the world of movement variability, to help runners understand how humans move and its relationship to pain, injury and performance.
Emma Brockwell, Pelvic Health Physiotherapist & co-author of the recently published ‘Guidelines for Return to Running Postnatal’, discusses key areas that need addressing in order to identify risk factors and contraindications.
Mike James, Physiotherapist, Sports Therapist & Endurance Athlete, discusses how exercise progression for runners is often complicated by performing too many exercises & changing them too often. He demonstrates how to simplify exercise prescription, providing runners & therapists with simple ways to optimise.
Kevin Maggs discusses the fact that more than any factor, running related injuries are linked with a load/capacity imbalance, and provides a practical guide on how to implement this into clinical practice.
