Ep 374: Expert Edition: The Balanced Runner - Improve your running with Paul Mackinnon 11/18/2025

Ep 374: Expert Edition: The Balanced Runner - Improve your running with Paul Mackinnon Running technique coach Paul Mackinnon (The Balanced Runner) unpacks why most runners “force outcomes” (cadence, foot strike, knee drive) instead of changing the inputs that actually reshape movement. Paul explains his top-down approach—starting at the arms and torso to influence what happens below—so athletes can reduce ground contact time, improve rhythm, and shift along the continuum from rehab to performance. Across an engaging conversation in episode 374 of The Physical Performance Show, with hosts Brad Beer and Huw Darnell, Paul challenges the idea that “technique doesn’t matter,” arguing that how you move determines how you load. He distinguishes economy from efficiency, shows why arm swing and thoracic control set the timing for the legs, and shares practical cues to build self-awareness, symmetry, and lift—without derailing training volume. Clinicians and athletes alike will gain a clearer roadmap for translating S&C work to the road, coaching more effectively, and making durable technique change.

TIMELINE: 00:00 Forcing outcomes: the #1 running mistake 03:19 Inputs over outcomes; changing the whole system without losing training 04:32 Knee drive, ground time, and why top-down coaching works 07:28 Midline crossover: finding the true driver of the pattern 09:35 Physics → biomechanics → the individual: three coaching silos 11:11 Do mechanics matter? Why the debate misses the point 14:11 Lessons from swimming: skill, workload, and injury risk 16:27 Breaking-2 insight: efficiency beating raw physiology 18:09 Economy vs efficiency; cost per step explained 21:07 Two paths to change: full-pattern reset vs detailed top-down 23:05 New-way/old-way contrasts to build self-awareness 26:06 Feel, timing, rhythm: enlarging the athlete’s “sweet spot” 32:29 What good running looks like: rhythm, symmetry, flight 36:37 Coaching language, listening, and athlete buy-in 43:22 Mental health: running as a lifeline 44:43 Humerus–femur coupling: why arms and thighs must sync 49:17 Simple buy-in: reduce ground time & ground reaction force 50:18 Paul’s top three: Awareness • Symmetry • Lift 52:50 Why S&C often doesn’t transfer—and how to fix it 59:35 One piece of advice: self-awareness—know where you are now 1:00:27 Listener Challenge: film your running, build your baseline LISTEN IN AS WE DELVE INTO THE FOLLOWING: The #1 mistake runners make: forcing outcomes vs changing inputs Why technique, capacity, and rehab are independent—but interlinked—puzzle pieces The injury ↔ performance continuum and coaching before athletes break Top-down mechanics: how arms/torso shape leg action and knee drive Midline “tight-rope” running: finding the driver (ribcage, arms, rotation) Physics → biomechanics → individual: the three silos that govern change “You can’t outrun physics”: mechanics as applied physics, not opinion Efficiency vs economy: cost per step, flight time, ground contact time Why research lags coaching—and what to change (and not change) first Translating S&C and plyos to running: when good gym work fails to show up Coaching language, storytelling, and athlete-led awareness (new vs old way) Rhythm vs being rhythmic: symmetry, timing, and longer flight Mental health, identity, and why running is a lifeline for many athletes Three practical cues: Awareness • Symmetry • Get off the ground The week’s challenge: Film your running and build an honest baseline QUOTES: “You can’t outrun physics.” “How you move determines how you load.” “Stop forcing outcomes—change the inputs.” “Awareness, symmetry, get off the ground. Every step costs—know what you’re paying for.” PEOPLE MENTIONED: Ellie Salthouse – Triathlete Enda King – Hip & groin specialist (Aspetar) Rich Willy – Running biomechanics researcher Alec McKenzie, Stephen Doohig – Swimming biomechanics researchers Jenny Alcorn – Triathlon coach (historical reference) THE TEAM: Join the The Physical Performance Show LEARNINGS membership through weekly podcasts here: https://www.patreon.com/TPPShow Our goal is to get you back to your Physical Best.

Ep 373: Expert Edition: Dr Jay Hertel. Chronic Ankle Instability in Athletes 10/24/2025

Ep 373: Expert Edition: Dr Jay Hertel. Chronic Ankle Instability in Athletes In episode 373 of The Physical Performance Show, sports medicine expert Dr Jay Hertel shares an in-depth exploration of chronic ankle instability in athletes. Drawing on his extensive clinical and research experience, Dr Hertel discusses the prevalence, consequences, and complex rehabilitation of ankle sprains. The conversation covers the patho-mechanical, sensory-perceptual, and motor-behavioral impacts of repeated ankle injuries, including early onset osteoarthritis, proprioceptive deficits, and the psychological hurdles faced by patients—such as loss of confidence and fear of re-injury. Dr Hertel explains the evolution of clinical models for assessing and treating chronic ankle instability, emphasising individualised care that considers not just the structural and neuromuscular factors, but also personal and environmental influences on recovery. The episode includes practical wisdom and a holistic approach and leaves athletes, clinicians, and listeners with a greater appreciation for the complexity of ankle injuries and a roadmap for improving outcomes both physically and mentally.
