Fredrik Zillén

Fredrik is a running technique specialist who has coached Olympic and World Championship running finalists, World and Swedish Championship medallists, Swedish record holders, and national team members in running and triathlon. He has conducted around 10,000 tests with 3D cameras on runners’ energy efficiency, how they load their joints, etc.

Fredrik is responsible for everything regarding biomechanics for runners in the worldwide coaching education program for HYROX coaches. 

He understands the particular challenges that come with teaching efficient running technique to people who train at the gym, and/or compete in Crossfit, something that he will address in his lecture. 

“Why standard running technique instructions don’t work, and why many CrossFitters have poor running technique.”

What you will learn: 

• What Fredrik has learnt from the 10,000 tests with 3D cameras. 

• Things you won’t find in any running biomechanics textbook, such as how both knee problems and lower back pain can be caused by the lack of movement of the scapula. 

• You will receive educational tools that lead to a more relaxed and efficient running technique without the runner having to think about what she is doing.

• The reason why many gym-goers and CrossFit athletes often have an inefficient running technique and what to do about it.
