Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

UC,

I am NOT a fan of those shoes :( I would recommend something with a more evenly padded midsole, slightly thinner and without slices in it ;-)

I just felt the insole in them the whole time, knocked my concentration on just running. I like my roclites and am thinking of f-lites.

UC, if you aren't comfortable in them, don't use them. I think they (the V3.0 not the v5.0) are a good enough shoe for transitioning to a more minimal shoe. Jeremy is correct on the sole issue, but they are very flexible shoes if you have the V3.0. Like I said to youu yesterday I don't rate the V5.0 version.
F-lites are definitely a great shoe. :)

Thanks for all the advice people, I will certainly take it on board.

One thing I want to mention is, although this is the POSE forum, I am not looking at the whole picture of POSE just yet. I am looking to achieve 4 main things:

1.Knees Bent
2.Body Weight on BOF
3.Short Steps
4.Lift heels up from hamstrings.

I know this is the basics to POSE anyway. What drills would people recommend? I will take time out to go and see a coach as soon as I can.

Also, if I wanted to go for a run tomorrow, nothing too fast, including walking breaks etc. Should I practice some drills first, and go out in the flites, and try to focus on some of the things mentioned? Or I am going too quick, and just go out in my normal cushioned shoes and heel strike and run inefficiently :) .. and practice drills etc in the background?
