Coach Meg Walker breaks down why most running injuries aren't caused by what you think — and why the real culprit is almost always a gap between your cardiovascular fitness and your connective tissue's ability to keep up.You'll learn why tendons, ligaments, and fascia adapt far more slowly than your aerobic system, why that gap keeps widening without the right training, and what to do differently to stay injury-free long term.Topics mentioned: running injuries, overuse injuries, IT band syndrome, Achilles tendinopathy, tissue tolerance, strength training for runners, injury prevention, load management, connective tissue adaptation.Want to get strong, lean and injury free?
