Training with the POSE method

Why is POSE always capitalizied?

Does anyone have experience training with the POSE method? I think I am going to become a POSEr. POSErs train using the POSE method. I want to be the best runner in the world using the POSE method, can I accomplish this using POSE methodology?

Thanks

I am a certified POSE coach and have experience using this method of training. I do believe you will MAMIMIZE your potenial in running if you follow the Pose Method of running technique. First go to

and read about what Pose Method means, then attend a clinic or find a coach in your area. The website has a great forum where you can ask questions to coaches as well as everyday runners working on their running technique. Good luck!

MAMIMIZE. Too good to be true. Just let your imagination wander. This is going to do wonders for POSE. Damn!

I looked at your site and the first thing I read is a critique of Carl Lewis?

Are you f-ing kidding me? The only thing anyone associated with that bs can offer Carl is possibly some singing lessons.

Get REAL!

Um, dude, I think the original poster was being sarcastic and making fun of the whole worthless "method". Did you not detect the ridiculously obvious sarcasm in his post? 99.9% of posters on this board think it is total crap so go try to sell your junk somewhere else. Maybe a 3:00AM infomercial would be more appropriate, you know, right after the 2:30AM infomercial on "New plant herb found on Galapagos Islands that gives better orgasms when inserted in your ass".

Why is POSE always in CAPS, and why is it inserted so many times in the text of the posts?

It is almost like someone is getting paid for the number of times they can type POSE on this board...

Yes JHaskins, listen to JHuffman.

He is a complete poser.

The principles to the pose method sound great! Next time I'm running DOWN a hill, I'll be sure to use them...

Is that really an artcle on what's wrong with Carl Lewis' mechanics on the front page?

Are they asking to lose all credibility?

That is rediculous. I'm waitin for a Pose runner to run 9.8x in the 100m sprint. As we all know, in sprinting mechanics matter a good deal. I guess Carl could have run a 9.75 against drugged up Ben Johnson in the olympics if he had only been aware of POSErs.

jeremy, do you train using the pose method? if so, how many prs have you set using it? how many world class athletes use it? whats the physiology of it?

Yes, I am training using the Pose Method model of running. I have been adjusting my form now for about 5 months. I have noticed changes throughout the whole process. I will be continueing to improve my form while preparing for races during the summer. I have not had opportunities yet to test out my new training program. I am very eager to race again. If you have any other questions you can email me at my hotmail account.

Bump

May I POSE a question? How is this method even possible? Doesn't it go against what I learned in High School physics class?

I am not sure what you learned in your physics class? The Method is possible for the exact reason why movement is even possible. Because of gravity. If you will read Dr. Romanov's book "pose method of running" you will get a better understanding of this reasoning. You can also go to www.posetech.com and get lots of information about why the technique is beneficial for everyone. If you have any further questions just email me at my hotmail account. Thanks!

That is very much in the style of Romanov's writing - what the hell does that actually mean?? I think a few astronauts would contend that movement is possible in the absence of gravity.

I think quite a few letsrun posters would contend that posting once is possible even for idiots like you.

Let me try and explain for you. Stand about a foot away from a wall. As you are facing the wall standing there your muscle efforts are keeping you in a balanced position on both of your feet consciously and subconsciously you are holding your position on the ground. Now, allow yourself to fall forward into the wall. What makes this happen? You release all your muscle efforts and began to free fall forward towards the wall because of gravity. Okay, following me so far? This is the exact same thing that happens when one is running. The only difference is that MOST people slow their rate of falling by swinging their airborne leg forward ahead of the GCM. By doing so they are braking their fall and waiting for the rest of their GCM to catch up. The key is understanding the relationship between how to correctly position your body weight while running. This is why Dr. Romanov developed the Pose Method model of movement. In order to better teach and understand how to move most efficiently. Again, you can be skeptical, however I recommend you keep an open mind in order to make positive changes to your running.

Wouldn't gravity cause you to fall down (i.e. vertically) rather than forward (horizontally)?

JHuff,

What is GCM?
