Jay Deshari (board-certified sports clinical specialist, PT, biomechanist, researcher, and author of Running Rewired) makes the case that the biggest gains often come from something way less sexy: Better mechanics + better elasticity + better durability.In this episode, we go deep on why distance running is largely elastic (tendons storing + releasing energy) and how small posture and movement changes can shift running economy by up to 8%, which can beat the benefit of most “super shoe” upgrades.What we cover • Why running economy is largely elastic energy transfer (joint to joint)• The slingshot idea: you must absorb/storing energy first to release it • Why “land under your body” can be misleading (you often contact slightly in front to load tendons) • Jay’s lab observation: running economy changed up to 8% just from posture orientation (slight lean forward/back) • What “form breakdown under fatigue” really costs you (seconds → minutes) • Why plyometrics are the fastest way to train elastic return (and how most people do them wrong) • Short ground contact is the point (don’t “hang out” on the ground) • Avoid ego box jumps (knee-height max) • Do them fresh, not cooked after a hard session • A simple strength template for runners (especially 40+) • 3 quality sets × 4 exercises (done fast, done right) • 6–8 rep range, rest long enough to actually lift heavy • Over 40: 2×/week strength often beats another run day for durability + longevity • The truth about “stability shoes,” pronation/supination, and what actually matters • Heel striking: not the villain. Where your foot lands relative to your body matters more than what part hits first. If you’re a masters runner (or just injury-prone), this one is a goldmine.
