I have read recently a very disturbing article concerning the trainers we wear for a “better” running. It changed my way of thinking, not only, how to wear shoes but also how to train.
As an Elite, or beginner runner or Race walker, you likely went through the frustration of one or several injuries.
And beside the rehab, the big question is about “how did I get into that?” did I over train or is it something else? But then what is it?
Contrary to popular belief, training does not make you stronger, faster or fitter. Those benefits only come afterward, during recovery, when adaptation takes place.
No matter how hard you train, without adequate recovery you not only squander your hard training effort – you also struggle to recuperate for your next session.
