My guess is you imperceptibly shorten your stride a little when you are wearing sweat pants

Try running in shorts with a conscious effort to use a shorter stride length. If possible, aim to have a mid-foot strike, rather than a heel-toe stride, this is both better for you and will force you to have a shorter stride.

A couple things	Srev	February 04, 2014 05:40PM
One fellow mesomorph to another. My 'Bulk' is 240. My 'Ironman' is 220. I'm 6'5". Waist is 34-36	dubs	February 04, 2014 12:05PM

Tearing or breaking "stuff" is not something inherent to sprinting. You're doing it wrong if this is happening. Don't spread misinfo. (n/t)	qurdind	February 05, 2014 05:18AM
Don't you think a 255 pound guy who doesn't run should start slower, though? (n/t)	wrathpuppet	February 05, 2014 05:49AM
It really depends on the person. Their medical and athletic history come into play.	qurdind	February 05, 2014 08:06AM
Having read a lot about running in the past year...	wrathpuppet	February 05, 2014 09:12AM

For soccer, I prefer sprint training. I do medium distance, but i'm not a distance person.	crafteddeception	February 05, 2014 09:16AM
I love how everyone is an expert on fitness. (n/t)	Matrik	February 05, 2014 06:50AM

Well, as its my job, I like to think I am to a point. (n/t)	qurdind	February 05, 2014 08:02AM
Maybe. Don't feel slighted. Though in response to your subthread, it was directed at all. (n/t)	Matrik	February 05, 2014 08:06AM
Why wouldn't everyone be an expert on the human body? We all have one, you know. (n/t)	Srev	February 05, 2014 05:09PM

It's a little old. About 18 years old. (n/t)	dubs	February 05, 2014 03:51AM
That's not a bulk, you're just overweight. (n/t)	Srev	February 04, 2014 05:29PM
See 34-36 Waist. At 220 I'm at like 13-14% body fat or so. (n/t)	dubs	February 04, 2014 05:32PM
That pick up line doesn't work for anyone else you use it on, why would it work for me?	Srev	February 04, 2014 05:47PM
lol. You are right. I'm not dedicated enough. :) (n/t)	dubs	February 04, 2014 06:01PM
Don't forget to poop right before your run. Trust me, you will fly. (n/t)	Matrik	February 04, 2014 11:05AM
I used to go to the track right after work (4:30 PM) every day.	Doof	February 05, 2014 12:22AM
Seconded. I poop right before every bball game. (n/t)	NbM(VIP)	February 04, 2014 11:10AM
On a side note, pooping before logging on to CF is also a good idea. (n/t)	Murphy	February 06, 2014 01:26AM

Good advice, although a bit prejudiced against one-legged folks. (n/t)	Doof	February 04, 2014 10:56AM
Not to mention tri-peds. (n/t)	Matrik	February 04, 2014 11:01AM

I love the brooks shoes and I have extra leet feet inserts. It doesn't hurt my knees at all. (n/t)	funnyone	February 03, 2014 04:14AM
Put on socks. Put one shoes. Tie shoes. Put one foot in front of the other rapidly. Propel forward. (n/t)	Matrik	February 02, 2014 04:55PM
In front of the other? No wonder I was always going backwards. (n/t)	MiyagiYojimbo	February 02, 2014 06:22PM
No clothes? It's freaking winter dude. (n/t)	Frosty	February 02, 2014 05:32PM
