Is running bad for your knees? Absolutely not. In this episode, Coaches Valerie and Caroline unpack one of the most harmful myths in running—that knee pain is inevitable. You’ll learn why most runners are unknowingly locking their knees and how this one habit leads to injury, discomfort, and even giving up the sport altogether.

Discover the real reason your knees hurt when you run—and what you can do about it starting today.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• ✅ Why locked knees—not running—cause joint pain
• ✅ How keeping your knees bent reduces impact and prevents injury
• ✅ Why phrases like “push off,” “toe-off,” and “foot strike” are misleading
• ✅ The truth about heel striking and how it affects your entire body
• ✅ What elite athletes do naturally that most runners misunderstand
• ✅ How to retrain your standing, walking, and running posture to run pain free

💡 Most runners don’t need more stretching or new shoes—they need better movement patterns. At RunRX, we teach you how to run the right way so you can run for life.

You've read the books. You've tried the drills. Maybe you’ve even studied Pose Method on your own. But you're still in pain or not hitting your goals. In this episode, Coaches Caroline and Valerie discuss the difference between self-coaching and having a coach—and why even experienced runners need feedback and guidance to run pain-free.

Learn why it’s not about information—it’s about application, repetition, and accountability.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• ✅ Why “knowing” the Pose Method isn’t the same as executing it
• ✅ How small breaks or habits can pull you back into old movement patterns
• ✅ Why hyperextended knees, tight hips, or flat feet are not reasons you can't run
• ✅ What a coach does that YouTube or a mirror can't—real-time correction
• ✅ How consistent feedback helps build new, pain-free movement patterns
• ✅ The difference between trying drills and actually rewiring your movement

💡 Whether you’re new to running or you’ve tried every “fix” without results, RunRX coaching helps you build the skill, strength, and structure to run without pain—and for life.

If you’ve been dealing with chronic knee pain, hip tightness, or foot issues every time you run, ask yourself this: how long are you willing to stay in pain? In this episode, Coaches Caroline and Valerie talk about why so many runners tolerate discomfort for years—and how quickly it can be resolved with proper movement.

You don’t need more gear, more rest, or expensive braces. You need a better way to move.

🔑 Key Takeaways:

• ✅ Why pain in running isn’t normal—at any age
• ✅ How correct movement can eliminate pain (even if you’ve had it for years)
• ✅ Why people accept pain as “part of running”—and why that’s a mistake
• ✅ The real reason your knees or hips hurt (hint: it’s not your age)
