Jogging is not an intentional heel strike movement. Jogging is simply running at a leisurely pace. It IS about pace. You can sprint with a heel strike. You can jog with a forefoot strike. The movements are not defined by which part of the foot makes contact with the ground.

It's well worth it to strengthen those secondary muscles to lay a firm foundation for being able to be a good sprinter or runner

I think you can sprint faster by getting more lift and hang time per stride and using your front pad on your foot and pushing off with your toes. It makes sense because if you are at speed you don't need so much torque from your quads over a shorter distance (as in sprinting flat footed) instead you can use a king lever arm (your whole leg and your extended foot) to put down power faster but with less torque. Maybe it will work maybe it won't but it's easy to test

It's easier for me too. When I am jogging I got pains in my legs after a while, and my legs feel heavy, when I run fast ( sprint) combined with walking fast, I feel amazing. Jogging is artificial, I guess this is the reason. Children slso are not jogging - tgey are plaing by walking-skipping, running a bit, jumping, resting, all if these are combined naturally.

Depends. I'm naturally a forefoot neutral foot strider whether I'm running or jogging.

Something your missing with your stride is that your toes are always pointing towards the ground while driving. Almost every running coach teaches you to have a 90 degree or more angle in your ankles while driving your leg forward and then slamming the forefoot in the ground just in front of the hip, either landing on a flat foot with the weight on the forefoot, or landing only on the forefoot if youre in a sprint. Running with the toes pointing downwards, and landing on them without flexing and slamming is actually working against you in terms of running economics

Running with proper technique can help prevent headaches while jogging or running. Flexibility in the feet and ankles is crucial for improving running form.

Turns out I don't run.

I had no idea. I tried it and I literally can't run

According to studies done by byu university, when running (not sprinting) the most efficient foot strike is the one that comes naturally for both amateurs and professionals and anyone in between. If your foot strike is bad or extreme, try doing some strength training (usually below the knee- so calves tib and ankles) and stretch. Also ease into mileage (slowly build every week).

Jog until your heart rate comes down naturally for same effort , and through consistency you will be able to use more effort and will be able to recover

Having flat feet CANT be the difference between running and jogging, as soon as I speed up more than a speed walk I tend to go to my toes to run and I know a lot more people like that too, it's gotta be the extention of your leg, running and sprinting is full/fuller extention while with jogging you're mostly just putting your foot under you as you need

@@Nobody-Nowhere-Nothing You're supposed to land on the forefoot ONLY when sprinting. For running, the correct strike is either heel-to-toe or midfoot, depending on various factors. I know where my "warning" as you call it is coming from - experience, painful injury, spinal surgery, and a lenghty recovery monitored by three experts who went back to basics with me because I quit being stubborn and I allowed them to educate me (I don't claim to be an expert). I also know where your belief that landing on the balls of your feet while running somehow magically absorbs more of the impact comes from - bad science that forgot that the human body doesn't start at the foot and end at the knees. Your lower back will take the impact! I can relate with what you're saying because 17 years ago, I unfortunately also got sucked into that story. But running is not jumping in place so that you should avoid the heel strike. There is a huge biomechanical difference between jogging, running and sprinting. You cannot use the same technique for all three. If you think you can, you'll find out the hard (painlful) way, that you actually can't. It took me 7 and a half years of forefoot running to end up at the neurosurgery department of my local clinical hospital center. I averaged 3 10kilometer runs per week, which is not much to be fair. But, in my case, it was enough to cause a massive extrusion in the L5-S1 segment. I was folded like a lawn chair. It might take you more or less time/kilometers depending on how you're built from the inside, but you'll eventually end up having a bad lower back (not everybody ends up requiring surgery). You only get one spine in life. Take care!

No one should run or jog on their heels, it will eventually ruin your knees as I have learned the hard way. If you can't jog on your toes it means you're slow enough that walking at a brisk pace is just as fast.

Jogging is a great way to kill your knees. When you land heel first, the force gets transferred up into your knee instead of distributed through your arch and Achilles if you landed on the forefoot. It's totally unnatural, as it's incredibly painful for most people to do without modern footwear. If you're running slow, shorten your forefoot stride, don't heel strike.

I try jog more than simply running for improve proper running from which i miised previous years from running and posture feom race wasn't there I do appreciate it explains so much and how I shouod stride everytime I get more used to jogging

Pleasantly informative!

As a track head, running on your toes is only fo sprinting, you want to land on your heel and roll to your toe to maintain momentum. If you do any longdistance run on your toes its farm worse on your body and tires you out more cause you arent transfering any energy

So running is better, but it's tough to build the aerobic and muscular endurance to maintain your slowest run. Interval training (HIIT?) in which you run hard and then walk a short bit to process lactic acid and catch your breath, but not so long your heart rate or breathing rate comes down. Once you get to where you can slow run a mile (7min?), then you can work on speed and distance with good form and low risk of injuries (e.g. shin splints from heel strikes) that will interrupt your training.

I've naturally ran/jogged on my toes since I was a kid for some reason. Hopefully actually getting into jogging for exercise isn't gonna be super difficult cuz of that 😂

To me jogging is moving forward faster than walking but at least one foot stays on ground
