How to Run Like the Elites (It’s Not About Training Volume)

Video Description

Want to know why elites look like they’re floating while the rest of us look like we’re working twice as hard? In this video, we break down the real reason elites run faster… and it’s not about training volume, Zone 2, or insane mileage. Using high-speed footage, we compare an elite runner (2:18 marathoner Vlad Shatrov) against an amateur. You’ll see exactly what makes elite running form so efficient, and more importantly, how you can train those same mechanics yourself. We’ll cover ground contact time, cadence, stride length, and elasticity, and show practical drills to improve your form. By the end, you’ll know how to run lighter, faster, and more efficiently… without adding more volume to your training. 📌 Chapters 00:00 Intro/Experiment 01:17 Running Form Analysis 03:15 Advice to Improve Form 03:33 Calf Raises 04:07 Drills 05:44 Running with music 06:20 Hill Strides → Full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7YOZIfB02k 07:54 Conclusions 📺 Subscribe for more running tips, training breakdowns & race films 📸 Follow our running adventures on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/runlabmedia/ Business: [email protected]
