    Pose Method of Running - 4 stars
    Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Review
    Read other reviews that almost led me not to buy this book. It is ACTUALLY a great read and provides logical analysis of running techniques. The author teaches the basics of his Pose Method of running but provides a number of analogies that get the reader to think about why he was led to this method. Buy it. I suspect you wont regret the purchase.
    Its all about paying attention to every detail - 4 stars
    Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Review
    In my continuous search for ways to keep on running while the body slowly deteriorates, I came across this book. It is a much deeper, scientific look into more of the areas that I first found in ChiRunning (although perhaps the Romanov techniques predate ChiRunning) .

    This is a very easy to read book with scads of exercises and supporting activities such as flexibility and strength building activites. It is very well researched applied science and is being used many high perfromance coaches and their athletes.

    The big eye opener for me was how he takes the forward lean, relaxed foot approach of ChiRunning much further along the entire foot and up the leg. Example, he stresses how you want to have minimal heel lift, landing on the ball of the foor, with minimal push off , so that your body does not rise and fall as you run. His practise activities really show you how to get gravity working for you with running. Again, it comes down to attention to detail in the execution. My natural run has become even easier, when I thought I could not get it any easier. If you take your running seriously this is a great resource for you. [...]

    Excellent Book on "The Method', a little Pricey and Could Have Been more Compact, Worth the Read - 4 stars
    Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Review
    I have run (pun not intended) through the Chi book and watched the evolution of running DVD but I found this book very helpful in describing the Pose method in detail and in particular the diagrams do a great job demonstrating the correct posture versus the wrong. There are difference in the explanations and in Pose I had a greater impression that the lean did not have to as significant as I thought under Chi. And in Pose, the author discusses lifting the ankles under the center of the hips and letting gravity allow the legs to fall without as much need to push off. Chi emphasizes kicking the feet back, which may be the same but sounds more difficult but also discusses allowing gravity to have its effect. Both books are well worth reading particularly as they emphasize reducing impact on the joints and running more efficiently. Writer Matt Fitzgerald indicates that studies show form changes don't often help runners run faster based on bio mechanical differences and needs, but he does admit that efficiency can be improved and all agree that barefoot running, when and where you can do it, is essential in learning how to run more efficiently. In the book, the author takes a long run up to give a biographical revelation on how he discovered the Pose method in 90 plus pages but it is a quick read. Quite a lot of the book is composed of exercises that assist you in learning and training for the method as well as numerous exercises to strengthen your core muscles allowing greater ability to sustain balance and the lean. The latter part of the book has excellent examples of the right and wrong way, the simply graphic showing the right lean versus the wrong was very helpful since I found myself doing too much of a forward lean. I also have/am guilty of concentrating more on leg turn over versus the right way to land. A clinic course would be helpful but from doing the drills and practicing the components one or two at a time (doing everything right all at once is a lot to concentrate on) it appears to be doable even possibly for an old heel striker like me. The book is a little pricey (5 stars if more compact) and I think a more compact version would have been just as good but it is worth the read but consider buying on Amazon used.
    Life Changing Stuff - 5 stars
    Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Review
    I took up running again as a way to get into shape & force better health habits. Went to a free clinic & heard pieces of what I later found were Dr. R's techniques. Have POSE books, a coach I see once a quarter & am working towards near zero pain running (still get sore, yes) & have gone from being a 10 minute mile runner (high heart rate at that) to 7 minutes (definitely room to grow still). Just couldn't be happier. When you get the right information it really helps cut through the crap of all that exists in the shoe stores & magazines. Byproduct of what I've learned via Dr. R is less respect for trusted running publications that I now see as existing not to disturb the ebb & flow of shoe & apparel advertising. You only need $100 + pair of corrective running shoes if you plan to do it wrong & are looking to prolong the eventual injuries you're lack of training will ultimately result in. Oh, this book is excellent -- covers what you need to know... but it's not magic or easy & quick work. You will need to continuously train & unlearn all that other stuff you've been doing through the years. Payoff is using you're body the way it was designed & not beating it against the ground step by step.
    wonderful book. - 4 stars
    Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Review
    This is a great book, I have found it very useful. It is not to be taken lightly it won't show you tricks or shortcuts or teach you running mantras, it is meant to completely change the way you run, for the better. Good luck.
