Running Training

Aspire 4 Health takes a comprehensive, holistic and scientific approach to training runners.  Our focus in on improving technique in order to reduce effort, reduce the likelihood of injury and improve performance.  Our running training focuses on:

  • Minimising likelihood of injury;
  • Managing any existing injuries and/or medical conditions;
  • Improving posture;
  • Using assessment tools such as “Gait Analysis” and “Functional Movement Screen”;
  • Improving efficiency through mid-foot strike technique;
  • Reducing effort;
  • Increasing distance;
  • Increasing speed;
  • Improving performance; and
  • Improving general health and well-being.

We work with a broad range of clients from those new to running to those involved in the ultimate endurance tests and performing at the highest levels.  We have a huge amount of experience in working with clients that may already be suffering with pre-existing or recurring injuries or medical conditions.  

Our running training techniques focus on ensuring a foundation of good posture; when your posture is aligned and the joints are opened, this results in an improved technique.  We consider mental focus and relaxation on top of the physical aspects when looking at improving form and performance.  As the foundation becomes stronger, your body will be able to handle more distance. Then speed becomes a by-product of good technique practised over increased distance, not something dependent upon the size and strength of muscles.  Ultimately, you’re not working to build distance and speed, you’re working to build presence, and that can happen at any distance or speed.  Using these principles we aim to minimize the possibility of injury and help you enjoy running for the rest of your life.

Don’t just take our word for it.  Here are some testimonials from some of our running clients:

“I can confirm Lee’s approach really works I am losing weight & toning up with a mixture of flexibility strengthening & conditioning exercises. Almost back to running after achilles injury.”

Another key point was to work on my pace, which was developed by Lee teaching me a better sprinting style. My agility was also improved with a range of tailored exercises.

Sports Conditioning

You can train like your favourite sporting idols and get fit doing personally tailored exercises for your sport/event and/or health/fitness needs which will allow you to enjoy your chosen sport to the max!

  • Do you want to get fit for the new season?
  • Are you training for a specific event or challenge?
  • Do you run a sports team that need some professional help in terms of their conditioning to improve their performance?
  • Do you need help managing your recovery from short/long-term injuries? or
  • Do you want to improve your overall health?

Whatever your reasons, at Aspire 4 Health we are highly experienced at working with a broad range of people of different ages and fitness levels.

Past clients include:

  • Professional football clubs (including Scunthorpe United, Huddersfield Town and Bradford City),
  • Sporting organisations (including the City of Bradford Men’s Water Polo and the City of Leeds Women’s Water Polo teams); and
  • Numerous individuals training for high profile sporting events (we even trained a client to run 15 marathons in 18 days for the Christians Against Poverty Charity).
Your sporting aims/objectives will be discussed during your free, no obligation, first consultation.  Furthermore, during this initial appointment, your likes/dislikes with regards exercise, your time constraints, and medical background are discussed, and a health & fitness programme can be devised and where necessary periodised (enables you to hit optimal fitness on the day of your event) to suit your specific requirements.

Rest assured that, regardless of your age, current health status, or levels of fitness, Aspire 4 Health will closely guide, motivate and teach you the correct techniques to safely and efficiently achieve your goals while also creating the foundation for a healthier, injury-free quality of life.

Don’t just take our word for it.  Here are some testimonials from our sports conditioning clients:

“I completed a range of training with Lee including sports conditioning and strength training. The sports conditioning training is highly recommended for anyone looking for that competitive edge in sport. My sports fitness improved a huge amount when training with Lee. The culmination of the training meant that level at which I was playing football was vastly enhanced.”

Eddy

“Came needing knee surgery and after intensive and innovative work carried out by Lee Smith which enables me to protect the affected area via mobility, stability and strength work I’m now not in the pain I was and almost back to football. If you want to achieve your goals and not be hampered by repeat injuries .. Aspire4Health.”
