πͺ Arms Do More Than You Think
Every time you run, your arms are hard at work:
- Keeping you balanced
- Driving your momentum forward
- Counteracting the movement of your legs
- Helping you maintain rhythm and posture
But hereβs the catch: as your arms fatigue, so does your form. When your swing slows or stiffens, your stride falls apartβand your energy drains faster than you think.
π The Upper-Body Fatigue Domino Effect
Arm fatigue isnβt just an upper-body issue. It affects your entire kinetic chain:
- Your shoulders tighten
- Your torso rotates less efficiently
- Your cadence suffers
- Your core overcompensates
- Your stride shortens
The result? Slower pace, higher effort, and increased chance of injury.
