Dr. Michael Yessis has his Ph.D. from the University of Southern California and his B.S. and M.S. from City University of New York. He is the founder of the Yessis Method. He has helped hundreds of runners worldwide fine-tune and develop proper technique methods to prevent injuries and run farther and faster from distances ranging from the 800-meters to the Marathon!
Today, I brought Dr. Yessis on the show for the second time to discuss his method and how I have integrated it as a part of my training to reach more athletes to improve their running technique to eliminate nagging injuries for GOOD. With consistent, progressive use of the Yessis specialized strength program, we can learn how to run correctly, which we should have been taught in 5th grade. Remember the Presidential Fitness Test? I know you do.
Listen to our conversation discussing:
- How different types of marathons should prepare for the marathon distance!
- When touching the ground in running, what direction should your foot move? Is it forward, stationary, or backward?
- What specific specialized strength drills to include for distance running, and how does running volume play a role in this?
- How the Yessis Method training method improves the way an athlete can run
- What is the biggest pinpoint you face when dealing with training distance?
AND MORE!
