At Naardic, we love to run, so it’s especially annoying when you start training after a great ski season, only to get injured after a short time. Here you can learn more about how Naardic can help you run injury-free.
The perfect training for spring
Spring is here, and that means many eager runners are finding their way back to running shoes and trails. In a new book, “Injury-Free Running” by Eirik Grøneng and Kristian Brynestad, it is pointed out that as many as 60-80 percent of injuries in runners are due to training errors. One of their most important recommendations is the so-called 1:3 rule: For every three hours of running, you should ensure one hour of basic training. The alternative to the gym
Not all runners enjoy going to the gym to get the necessary basic training. Here, Naardic’s strength training classes are a perfect alternative. Instead of slogging through boring routines on your own, you can participate in motivating group classes that are specifically designed to give you the strength and stability you need as a runner. In addition, you don’t have to travel to the center, saving time that you can use to fine-tune your training program or look for new running shoes.
Strong runner: Tailored to your needs
Naardic has also developed the “Strong Runner” class for those of you who want to strengthen your running training. This training session gives you the exercises you need to prevent injuries and improve your running technique. With a focus on strength training, stability and plyometric exercises – exactly what the experts recommend – the course is a way to follow the 1:3 rule in an effective and fun way.
Recovery is also training
Variation in training and sufficient recovery are crucial to avoid injuries. Naardic offers several calmer forms of training such as yoga, Pilates and pure mobility sessions, perfect for runners’ “off-days”. These classes give you the mobility training many need for injury-free running, while allowing the body to recover between the harder sessions.
Our trainers know injury-free running!
Naardic has many talented trainers, but for these courses we have one of our most enthusiastic runners, Rune Solheim. Rune is a PT and marathon runner, and is passionate about helping runners with technique and strength. He has previously written about this for, among others, Runners World. In addition, we have Eline Oma and Yngvar Andersen on the team, who hold interval sessions, social runs and other strength sessions for us.
