"What is true is that you can injure joints by increasing the workload too fast. Joints can strengthen and adapt to increased loads but it happens slowly. So don't go from running 5 miles per outing to running 10 miles." Underrated point. This is especially noticeable carrying packs. If you don't train to improve your joint strength (tendons and surrounding tissue, not muscle) you will injure yourself. Slowly you can build up to heavier weights. I now regularly train with 10kg, occasionally 15kg and alternate with 1kg. 2000km this year. |
