Running downhill can be the most fun part of running, but the truth is that most of us have a lot of room for improvement, and when we get it right, we can get a lot faster. This video will help you crush the downhills with some technical tips, strength-building movements, and a giant bug on Coach Dan's arm.

    I love that free feeling of letting go of the breaks and just flowing downhill. It's so fun!

    I'm such a weenie about downhills, and this was such an incredibly helpful video! I loved the "special guest star appearance" mid-video, too!

    My biggest challenge with downhill running is fear of falling, especially on steep declines. I'm 6'3 so my center of gravity is higher than most of the other guys I typically run with, and I'm always a bit scared that if I push my speed too much on the downhills I'll lose my footing and trip. I also wear running shoes with pretty thick soles, which are great for my knees but less so for my foot coordination when running quickly downhill.

    Cadence is key. I typically have a cadence around 170, but going down hill it increases to well above 200. Smaller steps means less impact per step. I also agree that the split squat is great for preparing the quads for running down hill, but personally prefer the ATG split squat because of the added effect on mobility.

    Love it Dan buddy…I’m on a break with running now dealing with a fifth metatarsal injury. Super sad and losing motivation. Rest rest rest but still strength training.🥲

    Did he mean hamstrings? Running down hills puts a lot of strain on my hammies

    hamstrings too, but quads are the most common issue
