Are you a Pose runner?
Well, I went for this running method due to a past injury and no time for mileage training. Surprise when my middle distance times were 5% lower at the same HR intensity, no more knee pain, and fresh buttocks after running. I do a lot of hamstrings strength and skills practise in my home, which replace a lot of outside mileage.
Someone here is a Pose runner? Why others not? We will thank different technical points of view

I naturally run like this as I have quite strong legs. I honestly think if someone is running well and not having any injuries then they should be left to it... "if it aint broke, don't fix it."
ooooooooooooo.......are you a coach??
I think in sports when you look for faster times and better results, perhaps there would be some non-friendly movements/weak links you wouldn't want (unbalances also occur naturally), what is the work of the coaches then?.
Some PP running articles also refer to "avoid injuries by correcting these unbalances".
Why not say as older people, "fix it before it brokens" ?
Im not an accredited coach, i'm a personal trainer with experience of training and running middle distance and cross country. there are plenty of world class athletes who do not run perfectly... biomechanics states that a movement is less prone to injury or more efficient 'in theory' giving certain factors, muscles used, external forces, angles on joints (for example women have the Q angle from hip to knee) etc etc.
However if someone has been running with a particular style for a long time and has not incurred an injury through this, then why bother changing it ??
All these theories are exactly that... a foundation of knowledge to build upon. No personal trainer I know will spot a lifter the way shown on his exams, i dont know many people that perform a chest press in a text book style, this is due to many factors, whether that be laziness, poor tuition, cheating or whatever.
Don't get so hung up (obsessed) with one notion that because something you hear is correct. For every argument in favour of something, there is at least one against it!!!
OK, it makes sense the personal training idea, all of us are different. What I mean is about that extensive field before the line of personal/gender and weather adaptations!.
Before this line, I think anyone wouldn't go for something without a science/knowledge support, otherwise there would be a lack for the coaching foundation (if I run by my way, why I need a coach then?). Why of higher qualified coaching degrees?
I am not obsessed from hearing of something, just scientific support evidence, and -beyond the line of the personal- applied in so many cases.
Which are these scientific arguments against something, say the Pose method of running or whatever? I think this is the reason of this website.
