Running is Hurting a lot of People’s Health | DFoss Freestyle

The Limitless Theory with Dillan Foss

For all you long distance, runners and triathlon folks … if your calves are bigger than your ass… your need to give it up. Relearn how to move.

1. ​ Most people can’t withstand the amount of joint impact. Leading to inflammation, cortisol spikes and more fat retention and muscle loss.
2. ​ Most people have terrible running form and are creating compensation patterns and joint discomfort in their day-to-day lives
3. ​ The super “healthy” eating, oddly skinny people who run too much, continuously fight an uphill battle with gaining muscle, and typically don’t eat enough protein because all they care about is carb fueling, are hurting their longevity
4. ​ Most people should get fit to run, not run to get fit. Most people would benefit more from fixing their muscle imbalances and improving movement patterns, especially their gait.
5. ​ “Most people!” Let’s say 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. Let’s assume 50% of them want to improve their overall health and keep their weight in a consistently healthy range. These are the people I’m referring to.

If that is you… That’s okay! There is a solution…

1. ​ Dietary changes (whole different convo but has to be a vital part of the equation)
2. ​ Do 15-30 minute simple “workouts” 3-5x per week

- Walking, Biking, Swimming

- Basic ankle, hip and shoulder mobility

- Basic bodyweight exercises
