Strides Not Sprints: Why Run a Short Accelerate Then Shouldn't Press the End

Strides Not Sprints: Why Run a Short Accelerate Then Shouldn't Press the End

Many people see the word Strides.

Understand that it is a strong sprint.

At the end, easy running.

4-6 rounds, full press.

And think of this as speed training.

But actually,

Strides are not Sprints.

And if we do the most pressing Strides every time,

It may not help to run better.

But it may increase fatigue, increase sore risk, and unconsciously turn light day rehearsals into heavy days.

Strides are short, controlled accelerator runs.

Most of them take about 10-20 seconds.

Or about 60 to 100 meters.

The goal is not to run as fast as possible in life.

But it is to make the body experience speed.

They are relaxed, form-controlled and do not accumulate too much fatigue.

Strides' key words are

Fast, but not the best.

Many people miss this.

When you start speeding, you accelerate.

Halfway through, it starts to tense.

Down, foot hit.

The pace began to stretch beyond

And then finish the round feeling like you just raced 100 meters.

That's not a good Strides.

That's a Sprint that was put on the wrong day.

A good Strides should feel like "letting the legs flow faster."

It's not to "squeeze yourself as fast as possible."

Let's start by accelerating.

Enter the control fast zone.

Keep good form

And then slowly relax.

Not a surge from the first step.

Not fully pressed until the body is deformed

And not finished, having to stand panting like just racing

The benefit of Strides is that it stimulates the nervous and muscular systems.

Make the legs remember the feeling of running fast.

Helps better cadence, posture, arm swing and footwork.

Without a heavy load like interval.

In other words,

Strides are like "reminding the body" that

We still have fast gear.

But not meant to burn the body.

This is why many runners wear Strides behind Easy Run.

Or before the quality rehearsal day.

Because it helps the legs feel awake.

Without exhausting the body until it hits the main rehearsal.

But if made a mistake,

Strides will immediately become a different story.

From a light urge.

Become a speed session.

From form training.

Become a race against yourself.

From the date should be light

Become a latent load date

And when you do this often,

The problem began to come.

The calf is tense.

Tense hamstring

Shins are tired.

Hip retardation

Or the next day, the legs are not fresh enough for real practice

The last didn't develop faster.

But accumulate unnecessary fatigue.

The easy way to think about it is

If Strides are done, then the form starts to crash.

It means too soon.

If having to clench the teeth

It means too soon.

If finished, panting is very heavy.

It means too soon.

If the next day, the legs are tight like just practicing speed

Meaning that may do too hard

Good Strides should end and then feel

"Lighter legs."

Not "legs break up."

Strides' speed may be around Pace faster than 5K pace.

Or about 85-95% of the top speed.

But it shouldn't be 100% pressed.

Because the goal is controlled speed.

It's not speed that comes off form.

And the break between rounds should rest enough.

Walk or jog gently until breathing back in control.

Don't rush to do the next round like an interval.

Because Strides didn't rehearse the toughness.

Didn't practice lactate resistance.

Didn't rehearse to break the heart

It rehearses the slippery

Contrast

Relationship of the body at fast running

And the ability to accelerate without tensing.

For the average runner.

Let's start with 4-6 rounds.

Do it after Easy Run 1-2 times a week.

But it must be based on the fact that the body is not hurt, not tired, and the tracksuit is enough.

If the legs are heavy that day

Little sleep.

Hurt

Or just come back and run after a long pause.

You don't need Strides.

Because Strides are reinforcers.

Not a mandatory mission.

In the end, Strides didn't measure who pressed the fastest.

But measuring who runs fast and still looks the most relaxed

If done correctly

It helped us run better.

Sharper form

The legs know more speed.

Without adding more loads than necessary.

But if made a mistake,

It's just a short Sprint that adds fatigue to the practice schedule.

Strides are fast, controlled.

Sprint is the most pressing fast.

And sometimes the extreme press

Is the smartest way to make us run faster in the long run.

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์การฝึกวิ่งของตัวเอง ผมพบว่า Strides นั้นเป็นองค์ประกอบสำคัญที่ช่วยเพิ่มประสิทธิภาพโดยรวมของร่างกายอย่างมากเมื่อวิ่งในระยะยาว ตอนแรกผมก็เข้าใจผิดคิดว่า Strides คือการ sprint แบบเต็มที่ทุกครั้ง แต่จริง ๆ แล้วหากเรากดแรงเกินไปจะทำให้ร่างกายได้รับผลกระทบเชิงลบ เช่น กล้ามเนื้อล้าเร็วขึ้น เสี่ยงบาดเจ็บ และทำให้วันวิ่งที่ควรเป็นวันฟื้นตัวกลับกลายเป็นวันที่ร่างกายเหนื่อยเกินความจำเป็น เทคนิคที่ผมใช้และได้ผลดี คือ ค่อย ๆ เริ่มเร่งความเร็วแบบคุมได้ ไม่ใช่การออกตัวแรงตั้งแต่ก้าวแรก โดยรักษาฟอร์มร่างกายให้ผ่อนคลาย รู้สึกเหมือนปล่อยให้ขาไหลเร็วขึ้นอย่างเป็นธรรมชาติ และค่อย ๆ ผ่อนความเร็วกลับสู่จังหวะเดินหรือ jog เบา ๆ ระหว่างช่วงพัก ช่วงเวลาที่เหมาะสมสำหรับการฝึก Strides คือหลังจาก easy run หรือในวันที่ไม่ได้ซ้อมหนักมาก เพื่อช่วยให้ระบบประสาทและกล้ามเนื้อรู้สึกกระปรี้กระเปร่า และเตรียมพร้อมสำหรับการซ้อมคุณภาพในวันถัดไป นอกจากนี้ ความยาวของ Strides ไม่ควรเกิน 60–100 เมตร หรือใช้เวลาประมาณ 10–20 วินาที และความเร็วควรอยู่ที่ประมาณ 85–95% ของความเร็วสูงสุด ไม่ใช่การวิ่งเต็มที่ 100% เพราะเป้าหมายคือการกระตุ้นความเร็วในร่างกายโดยไม่ทำให้ร่างกายล้าเกินไป การทำ Strides อย่างสม่ำเสมอช่วยพัฒนาทักษะการวิ่ง เช่น cadence, posture, arm swing และการลงเท้า ทำให้ฟอร์มการวิ่งดีขึ้นอย่างมีประสิทธิภาพโดยไม่ต้องใช้การซ้อมที่มีความหนักหน่วงมาก สุดท้าย ผมขอย้ำว่าการฝึก Strides ไม่ใช่การแข่งกับตัวเองเพื่อดูว่าใครเร็วสุด แต่เป็นการฝึกความรู้สึกของร่างกายให้รู้จักและควบคุมความเร็วที่ทำได้อย่างต่อเนื่องและปลอดภัย เพื่อการพัฒนาความเร็วที่มั่นคงและยั่งยืน ถ้าเราทำตามคำแนะนำนี้ จะช่วยให้การวิ่งของเรามีประสิทธิภาพและลดความเสี่ยงบาดเจ็บในระยะยาวได้จริง

✨ EASY IS NOT A SPECIFIC PACE ✨ 👆 One of the hardest lessons I had to learn when I started running. I usually base my easy runs on feel, but lately, with my focus on speed, I caught myself overanalyzing pace, turning easy runs into progression runs, and sneaking in unnecessary speed work.
