"The anatomical and biomechanical position of the hips affects the integrated movement of the whole body. As the bridge between the upper and lower body, the hips play a key role in integrating and coordinating all of the body's movements. The strength and stability of the hips provide the path for mechanical energy flow through the body during support and flight. Strong hips provide the foundation for the loads experienced by the lower extremities on support and reduce the impact on the lower back.”

“The importance of strength training for running is to give you the physical capacity to flow like nature's best runners. Once you have mastered the basic elements of the Pose Method® of Running, you must become a runner, in the Zen sense of the word. You must develop the quickness, the strength and the vision to run without becoming a slave either to the dictates of the stopwatch or the environment in which you are running. This requires very specific preparation that will take the disparate muscle systems of your body and fuse them into a single system ready to run.”

“The largest muscles in the body, the hamstrings are the workhorses of the runner. Responsible for releasing the body from support and allowing it to free fall, they work harder than any other muscles while you are running and must be properly prepared, not only to perform well, but also to avoid injury."
