General tips for running
- Don't forget to warm up - stretching and mobilisation exercises before the start prevent injuries.
- The right equipment - Well-cushioned shoes and breathable clothing ensure comfort.
- Make sure your posture is upright - head high, shoulders relaxed, arms at a 90° angle with a slight swing.
- Increase slowly - gradually increase the distance and pace to avoid overloading yourself.
- Consciously control your breathing - Breathing in and out evenly improves your stamina.
Running made easy - how to stay on the ball!
Make sure you have a natural running style with a gentle midfoot landing to protect your joints. Start easy and gradually increase your speed and distance. Interval training provides variety and improves your fitness. Don't forget to recover - rest days are just as important as training! And for more fun: change terrain and discover new routes.
Running is more than just sport - it's pure freedom!
