WHO IS CHRISTOPHER MCDOUGALL?

  • Author, correspondant, reported on wars in places like Rwanda
  • Author of Born to Run , a book discussing the amazing athletic ability of a hidden tribe
    • This book hooked Vinnie — hunt to talk to McDougall!
  • Also wrote Natural Born Heroes which Vinnie is also reading
  • http://www.chrismcdougall.com
  • Chris looks for what has lineage when he wants to find how to do something properly
    • “Chi running”-style running has the lineage, has the history that works
      • This is what tribes have done forever, and it keeps them healthy and allows them to run incredibly well and efficiently

RUNNING SHOES

  • Running shoes are baloney for the most part
  • Running shoes wear out at the same place, proves that your running form needs to change
  • flat soled sneakers tend to be better, minimalist-type shoes, if you run correctly

MUSCLE WHILE RUNNING

  • Running is important but is not the only thing
  • Muscle allows your body to extend backwards, the power comes from the fascia
    • look at MLB pitchers for instance!
    • “elastic strength”
  • Bruce Lee: “I always had my strongest punch with my left toe”
    • A punch starts in your left big toe
  • Running comes from the hips, among other parts
    • “Sacrum” – near your naval is the sacred center of your body
