Running Program

Better, pain-free and enjoyable running can be learned with the right guidance.
The Wise Running program, in which all levels work together toward one goal: to learn to run better, enjoyably and pain-free, as always guided by a physical therapist. because there is no one single way to run, but there is a pain-free and pleasant way to run for everyone. You are always accompanied by a physiotherapist in the WIJS Running Programme.
After a successful trial period with the first running group, the next group will start this spring. Twice a week for six weeks, a varied programme will cover all aspects of running such as stability, strength, coordination, mobility and even nutrition. Each training session consists of theory, strength training at WIJS, walking and training outside, and a cooling down.
STABILITY
To create the correct take-off and landing while running you need stability, not just in your ankles and knees but also the pelvis, and even your upper body has an important role to play. During stability training we will work on transferring the forces from your upper body to your pelvis and thus make movement easier.
Power
Full body strength is important to process the impact of the landing while running, and also to continue the movement when the leg lifts off. During strength training at WIJS we will let you into the secrets of the right kind of strength training to enhance your running.
Coordination
Balanced coordination makes for the easiest of movement. Finding a sweet spot in the rhythm enables you to push yourself at any speed. The difference between a sprinter and a marathon runner seems obvious to most people, but how is it that both harness such a feeling of relaxed rhythm? We will teach you during the running training programme.
MOBILITY
The correct stride length and the load on your back or knees are all linked to the pulling forces of your muscles while running. Sufficient mobility is important for this, so that’s the focus of the cooling down period during the running programme.
Nutrition
Together with our nutrition expert you will look at what nutrition can do for your running training. Note, this is much more than just what you’re eating and drinking while running. What should you eat the night before? What gives you the most energy, so that at the end of the day you still have something left in the reserve to get off the couch and make that extra round?

Frequently Asked Questions
CAN I SHARE A PERSONAL TRAINING SESSION WITH SOMEONE ELSE?
At Wijs, you can also train in pairs and all for the same amount.
In short, double the fun, half the burden.
Are Wise's personal trainers adequately trained?
At Wise, we all employ personal trainers who are also physical therapists. In addition, every other week at Wijs we host an internal meeting where we give lectures or even go to VU for cutting room labs to keep our knowledge up to date.
HOW OFTEN SHOULD I TRAIN WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER TO GET RESULTS?
The number of workouts always depends on your personal goals. As an idea, you can take: 2 personal training sessions a week or 1 personal training session a week and 2 free trainings.
HOW DO I MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER?
Wise uses an app for your computer or smartphone. In this app, you can always see when you have an appointment and also reschedule it if necessary.
I HAVE TROUBLE DRAGGING MYSELF TO THE GYM, IS A PERSONAL TRAINER RIGHT FOR ME?
The personal trainer at Wise always schedules a set appointment so that you come to exercise at a set time during the week. We do this because experience shows that a fixed pattern leads to better results. Of course, it is possible to reschedule appointments if necessary!
