ChiRunning is a great new approach to a popular exercise sport. 67% of the people running this year will stop at least once due to injury. According to longtime running coach and marathon runner Danny Dreyer, the problem is not running, but the way you run. Dreyer uses the principles of T'ai Chi to create a program that not only heals and prevents injuries, but promotes greater speed and distance with much less effort! In keeping with current trends in fitness that emphasize core strengths and relaxation of peripheral muscles, the key to ChiRunning is to rely on the deep power reserves in the trunk of the body instead of the relatively weaker leg muscles.
