Relax and feel the flow, then your mobility work will be able to functionally get involved in your running.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma8.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant in full flight in the Carbon X\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Be alert&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>When you&#8217;re doing your strength training, if you aren\u2019t thinking about the right movement patterns, then you don&#8217;t build those neuromuscular channels. Take time to do your gym training. Do it when you&#8217;re fresher and find it easier to concentrate too, then it will be so much more beneficial.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/PHOTO-2019-09-07-15-30-01-rs.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant in action at the 2019 IRONMAN 70.3 World Championship in Nice\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Get the right muscles to work&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>The easiest way to get the right muscles to work is to fire them up before you head out. Activation doesn\u2019t take that long, but it can make all the difference to good running form, to prevent injury and increase speed, so invest that little bit of time pre-run to get into good habits.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma5.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant ties her shoelaces Carbon Rocket\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>The best runners run from their hips&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>But this means you need really good core engagement. Injuries mainly come from overloading the lower limbs, so combine a good strong core with good muscle protection over the legs, then you can spend more time running.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma2-3.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant uses the foam roller\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Get out of the grey&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>The &#8216;grey zone\u2019 of training is that uncomfortable pace that people do so much of their training in, but where the real benefits don&#8217;t lie. The real benefits come from the balance of running easy and hard. The really nice, easy runs help you get into good habits, which then allows you to do the super-hard key sessions to the best of your ability, unlocking the speed that will keep pushing up your VO2 max.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma6-1.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant in full flight in Clifton 5\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Run your easy runs easy and focus on efficiency&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>The more efficient your style, the less energy you waste, the faster you go and the more fun you have. So really slow things down and feel your running when you run easy. Check for dead spots and eliminate any areas throwing you out of pattern.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma1-1.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant performs a pull up\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Take intensity to the next level&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>Now the fun begins. When you are well conditioned, you can let loose and start to love the pain. Learn to embrace and teach your body to hold a hard rhythm and pattern when it is hurting the most. Intensity is a lot about breathing out the pain and being strong in the mind.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-image\" src=\"https:\/\/blogemea.hokaoneone.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/emma4.jpg\" alt=\"HOKA athlete Emma Pallant ties her shoelaces\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Test your limits&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>The deep, dark place in training is the place of growth. Now you can find your limits, record them and keep coming back to challenge them. Sometimes you will win, sometimes you will lose, but never give up. Failure is only quitting. Not getting through a current limit just means you have to come back and try again.<\/p>\n<p><em>Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thatcameraman\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@thatcameraman<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/activimages\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Activ&#8217;Images<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From building the foundations to developing strength and increasing intensity, get ready to combine the tools you need to run stronger.
