The Pose Method

The Pose Method is a way of running and moving that emphasizes proper body alignment and timing to improve efficiency and reduce injury. It encourages you to stay balanced by positioning your body so that your body weight is centered over your foot's midsection, rather than over your heel. The method breaks down movement into key poses: the "pose" (a balanced stance), the "pull" (lifting and preparing the leg), and the "push" (driving forward). By focusing on these poses and maintaining a slight forward lean, runners can move more smoothly, conserve energy, and minimize impact stresses on the body.
