Fast running & striding, have you chosen the right running method for you？

As many runners know, there are two kinds of running postures, namely, quick running and striding.

In fact, there is no difference between the two running methods. Runners can choose the running method that suits them according to their body shape and muscle strength.

This article will briefly analyze the characteristics and differences between the two for everyone.

First, the brisk running method

Trot refers to a running method that uses a smaller stride to speed up the pace frequency. This running method can not only reduce the up-and-down movement range of the body, ensure the stability of the running state, but also reduce the burden on the feet, which is suitable for practitioners who have no exercise habits.

There are several key points in brisk running:

Summary: The brisk running method can easily speed up or slow down the running pace by controlling the pace. When the exerciser wants to increase the speed, he will unconsciously increase the stride, which will increase the burden on his feet. Therefore, by speeding up the pace frequency, the running speed can be improved while minimizing the burden on his feet.

Second, the striding method

The striding method is different from the brisk running method. It is a kind of running method that can show vitality and be more ornamental by increasing the stride length to improve the speed.

It is reasonable to say that if we can speed up the pace frequency on the basis of increasing the stride, it will be the fastest running method, but the strode running method has a greater impact when landing, which requires runners to have corresponding muscle strength. Stride running is suitable for runners with good physical strength, strong muscle strength and long legs (higher height).

It is difficult for beginners to judge whether they have the muscle strength and physique needed for striding. Therefore, it is suggested to adopt brisk running first, and then gradually increase the stride to find the stride that suits them best.

The striding method has the following key points:

In short, determining the running method suitable for your body shape and muscle strength is helpful to achieve the goal of running the whole course or shorten the completion time.
