Benefits of an athletic training program for running
Running is a sport that places a lot of strain on your body. It’s important to have the athletic trainers at Excel Sports and Physical Therapy on your side to help make your running easier.
Even though you may not immediately associate physical therapy with training for your running, it can be beneficial for identifying issues with your running that could cause you major problems if left unchecked. It’s also helpful to critique your form so you can run faster and improve your endurance.
Some issues that running training fixes include training errors, a lack of flexibility and strength in your muscles and joints, and poor running form. These issues can lead to an increased risk of injuring yourself, especially during long-distance runs.
We can help you deal with these issues by building a running program that is designed to have significant benefits for you, such as:
- The ability to analyze and record your running form
- Learning new tips and tricks to change your running form
- Reducing your chances of injury while running
The goal of our training program is to help you improve your running ability, while also helping to prevent future injury.
