Whether you're a trail runner, road runner, or someone dealing with a stubborn tendon injury, this episode arms you with the latest insights to train smarter and reduce injury risk. In This Episode Trail Running: What Predicts Performance & Injury Risk? Paper: Analysis of Factors Influencing Injuries and Performance in Trail Running Key insights: Higher weekly volume, more elevation gain, more interval training, and structured recovery β lower injury risk Sleep + passive recovery (massage, mobility, sauna, cold plunges) strongly linked to better performance Taller runners had slightly higher injury risk Prepared tissue = safer tissue More training is protective β but only when recovery is adequate Dynamic Stretching: Does It Improve Neuromuscular Readiness? Paper: Acute Effects of Dynamic Stretching on Knee Joint Position Sense and Dynamic Balance in Recreational Runners Key insights: A 5-minute dynamic warm-up improved: Joint position sense Single-leg balance Neuromuscular βreadinessβ Runners were more accurate with limb positioning and more stable on Y-Balance Test Dynamic Stability & Running Economy: Why Variability Helps Paper: Runners with Lower Dynamic Stability Exhibit Better Running Economy Key insights: More step-to-step variabilityβ¦
