Strength Training Is Making Your Running Worse

Описание: You started lifting to become a stronger, faster runner.

But instead your stride feels heavy, your hips ache, and your running economy is getting worse.

This isn’t a failure of effort.
It’s a failure of transfer.

Strength training can improve running performance — but only when it’s programmed to develop elasticity, neuromuscular coordination, and force translation into movement.

In this video we break down:

• Why strength without elasticity creates stiffness and pain
• The hidden disconnect between gym strength and running skill
• How neuromuscular fatigue quietly alters running mechanics
• Why delayed injuries often trace back to lifting errors
• The biggest strength mistakes runners make in the gym
• How to combine heavy lifting, plyometrics, and eccentrics correctly
• The simple post-lift strategy that immediately improves running mechanics
• Why scheduling strength incorrectly sabotages performance
• The 48-hour CNS rule runners ignore

This isn’t about lifting less.
It’s about lifting in a way that translates to running.

Strength should make you elastic, efficient, and durable — not rigid and slower.

👤 ABOUT ME / AUTHORITY

Forged Grit explores performance through stress adaptation, biomechanics, and operational training principles.

I’m an endurance athlete, coach, and scientist with decades of experience across ultrarunning, strength training, and hybrid performance. My work focuses on durability, elasticity, and the transfer of strength into real-world movement rather than isolated gym metrics.

This channel is built on one principle:

Strength that doesn’t transfer becomes a liability.
