In this episode of PT Snacks Podcast, we break down running biomechanics—what makes running different from walking, common running faults, and how to address them for more efficient, pain-free movement. Whether you're a physical therapist, student, or a runner looking to optimize performance, we cover key gait cycle phases, overstriding, hip drop, cadence adjustments, and strength training strategies.

Plus, get practical tips on modifying load, preventing injuries, and enhancing running efficiency with small, actionable changes. If you're working with runners or are one yourself, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!
