About this class
Jogging can be done virtually anywhere and anytime, the equipment is simple, even older students and unsportsmen can start jogging. Anyone who regularly runs for at least half an hour in a row does jogging as an endurance sport and is doing a lot of good for their health.
Endurance sports such as jogging or cycling promote many healthy body processes.
Jogging is good for the mind: The brain concentrates on movement, the jogger can “switch off”, thoughts flow more freely, everyday worries fade away. In addition, brain messengers (endorphins) raise the mood.
Endurance exercise promotes physical health: Not only do you burn more calories, endurance exercise also makes blood vessels more elastic and improves sugar metabolism. This lowers the risk of diabetes, obesity, stroke and heart attacks. In an American long-term study, the jogger group not only had fewer cardiovascular diseases, but also fewer infectious diseases, fewer neurological diseases (e.g. dementia) and even fewer cancer deaths. At the same time, the joggers examined were no more likely to have orthopedic disorders such as osteoarthritis than the sedentary comparators.
But first thing first: Be sure to wear the right footwear!
What you’ll do in the class
Good posture while jogging helps save strength and prevents incorrect loads. The basis for good posture is a balanced musculoskeletal system (see above). Certain images that you can imagine while running counteract posture errors.
- Basic posture: Head, shoulders and hips should stand vertically one above the other, like three cubes of different sizes standing straight on top of each other. Slightly tense your core muscles, relax your jaw and neck, look forward ten to 30 meters.
- Chest: Imagine that a tight rope pulls you forward on your chest as you run. Take a proud stance. This opens your chest and allows you to breathe in a lot more air with each breath.
- Pelvis: If the muscles in the trunk, pelvis and thighs are too weak, the pelvis wobbles left and right with every step, which overloads the hips and knees and costs too much energy. Many poorly or improperly trained joggers also tilt their pelvis forward and their hips backwards. This “chewing position” may be caused by too much sitting because it shortens muscles and vision. Tip: Think of the pool as a water bowl that you have to carry horizontally while jogging without spilling water.
- Arms and hands: Imagine yourself as a locomotive. The arms move evenly and straight like drive pistons. They don't sway back and forth, but only move forwards and backwards.
- Knee movements: The knees do not need to be particularly raised when running. The purpose of the knee movement is primarily to move the leg forward.
