Added for You - Running And Back Pain: Check Your Technique For A Likely Cause
An ironic turn of events may occur in the lives of people who have had weight loss surgery. At first during the lengthy process of deciding on this approach, preparing for surgery, having the procedure and in the rapid weight loss for 18 months afterwards there is only the fantasy of life as a thin person.But when the process is comple
To achieve an upright running style without tightening your lower back you need to ‘let go’ of the muscles likely to collapse your torso forward. The latissimus dorsi muscles are then able to perform their proper function to maintain your ‘effortless up’ - this will take all the stress off your lower back.

The initial question that the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) in South Africa wanted to answer was: Is the hoodia gordonii cactus safe?

If you experience back pain whilst running or following a session check out the common causes below:-
- Worn or inappropriate running shoes
- Trying to hold yourself upright
- Pushing forward to run
- Too much bounce in your stride
- Running whilst carrying an injury
Start with the easy options such as changing your shoes. If your running shoes are worn out or not suitable for you they will not absorb the constant shock of the impact with the road causing compression and jarring in the discs in your spine. Visit a good running shop and ask to have your running technique assessed so they can recommend the best shoe for you.
If changing your running shoes does not help get yourself checked out by a physical therapist for any hidden injury problems. If you still experience back pain whilst running the most sensible thing to do is to assess your technique.
Is it your technique?
For most runners it’s lower back pain that causes the most problems. I believe there are two main causes for this in relation to running technique.
1. Trying to hold the torso upright in the style of Michael Johnson by tightening the lower back muscles. It is now accepted by most coaches that Johnson’s upright technique, once considered unconventional, is a very efficient way to run. However, if you look at how Johnson’s technique evolved you will see that he used his lower back less and less to achieve it.

The more productive we are, the more we get paid. Seems logical, but is it true? All depends on the definition of productivity on an individual level.

2.Another cause of lower back pain for runners is the thought that running is about going forward, okay of course it is, but it doesn’t require you to ‘push’ forward to do it. Running is really about passing a force into the ground and using the hip, knee and ankle joints to translate that into a forward motion.
Golden Rule: Use the ground and not your back!
Your running technique could be the cause of your problem. Once you can develop an efficient, relaxed style you may find that running and back pain are no longer mentioned in the same breath.
