How I Healed Achilles Tendinitis

Have you ever had a nagging injury that just wouldn't go away? Well, they say "nothing changes if nothing changes," and "they" are right.  Back when I first began running as a casual form of exercise during college, I thought running was just a natural thing.  I didn't know that there was actually a right way and a "not so right" way for the human body to run.  And in order to discover the answer to my nagging injury, I had to make a change in my running form.

The body is built as a machine with parts that stack and depend on other parts. When one part doesn't work right, then the surrounding parts have to pick up the slack. Eventually they get tired of picking up the slack (as I am sure you would get tired of always picking up the slack for one of your co-workers, right?!)   So they stop helping. When that happens, injuries happen and things just stop flowing right.  

Let me share with you my story of how achilles tendinitis bothered me for YEARS until I made a change and researched running techniques that helped me better place my foot on the ground, line up my knees, hips, and ankles, and run more relaxed.  

Listen in to my Tuesday at 2 TBP Talk above (FYI: over on my Trainer In Your Back Pocket Facebook Page, I share a live talk every Tuesday at 2pm PST!) where I share my top tip for overcoming this injury.  If you're a runner, (or wannabe runner) you don't want to miss this information! 

After you watch this video and want to learn more about your running technique, I invite you to take lesson 1 of my 5 Weeks to 5k Running Clinic absolutely free right here!  It's where you'll lay the foundation, the groundwork for all of your new, efficient, running skills!
