Non seulement j'ai mis au moins une heure de plus que si j'avais parcouru la m\u00eame distance sur route, mais j'ai \u00e9galement pass\u00e9 les deux jours suivants avec un mal de t\u00eate et des jambes tr\u00e8s raides.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Malgr\u00e9 mes d\u00e9buts difficiles dans le trail running, j'ai rapidement accroch\u00e9.<\/strong> C'est le sport le plus riche en endorphines : la combinaison de l'exploration des plus beaux paysages de la nature avec l'avantage suppl\u00e9mentaire de l'euphorie du coureur apr\u00e8s l'exercice.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>En quoi la course sur sentier diff\u00e8re-t-elle de la course sur route ?<\/strong><br\/>\n<br\/>La premi\u00e8re chose \u00e0 savoir est que vous ne courrez pas toujours. Lorsque vous vous attaquez \u00e0 des mont\u00e9es abruptes, il est plus efficace sur le plan \u00e9nerg\u00e9tique de marcher, ce qui peut \u00eatre un changement bienvenu. Il peut \u00e9galement y avoir des sections de sentiers techniques qu'il vaut mieux parcourir lentement, ce qui r\u00e9duit le risque de blessure lorsque vous vous faufilez entre les racines des arbres et les branches tomb\u00e9es au sol. Bien que les surfaces plus douces du trail running entra\u00eenent moins de blessures li\u00e9es \u00e0 l'impact, le m\u00e9lange d'arr\u00eats et de d\u00e9marrages et de sols irr\u00e9guliers signifie que vous passerez probablement plus de temps debout. Cela n'affecte pas seulement la fa\u00e7on dont vous vous entra\u00eenerez, mais augmente \u00e9galement la quantit\u00e9 d'hydrates de carbone, d'\u00e9lectrolytes et d'eau dont vous aurez besoin pendant la course.<br\/>\n<br\/>Rien dans le trail running n'est particuli\u00e8rement simple et votre entra\u00eenement ne doit donc pas l'\u00eatre non plus. Il est important de construire <strong>une combinaison d'endurance et de force<\/strong> tout en ayant la capacit\u00e9 de naviguer sur des terrains accident\u00e9s sous l'effet de la fatigue. De nombreux coureurs sur route sont d\u00e9stabilis\u00e9s sur les sentiers par la pression exerc\u00e9e sur les articulations lors des mont\u00e9es abruptes et des descentes irr\u00e9guli\u00e8res.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Les 5 meilleurs conseils en mati\u00e8re de formation<\/strong> pour vous pr\u00e9parer \u00e0 relever le d\u00e9fi d'un sentier.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Conditionnement cardiovasculaire - construire le moteur.<\/strong>\nTout d'abord, vous devez vous doter d'une solide base cardiovasculaire. D\u00e9veloppez votre condition physique en combinant des courses longues et des entra\u00eenements en escalier. Veillez \u00e0 commencer l'entra\u00eenement suffisamment \u00e0 l'avance pour ne jamais augmenter votre distance de plus de 10% par semaine afin d'\u00e9viter les blessures dues au surentra\u00eenement.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Sp\u00e9cifique au terrain - pour aller sur le sentier.<\/strong>\nPour un entra\u00eenement optimal, passez le plus de temps possible sur des pistes similaires \u00e0 celles de l'\u00e9v\u00e9nement.<strong> Encore mieux :<\/strong> Les pistes d'athl\u00e9tisme peuvent \u00eatre utilis\u00e9es pour l'entra\u00eenement afin que vous sachiez ce \u00e0 quoi vous \u00eates confront\u00e9 et o\u00f9 vous devez faire preuve de pers\u00e9v\u00e9rance. L'entra\u00eenement sur les pistes permet \u00e9galement de d\u00e9velopper la stabilit\u00e9 des articulations, ce qui r\u00e9duit le risque de blessure.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Essayez :<\/strong> La randonn\u00e9e est une excellente alternative \u00e0 la course \u00e0 pied si vous souhaitez parcourir une plus grande distance sans en subir les cons\u00e9quences.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Entra\u00eenement musculaire - r\u00e9duit les blessures.<\/strong>\nPour faire face \u00e0 un terrain ondul\u00e9 et irr\u00e9gulier, la musculation est un \u00e9l\u00e9ment essentiel de l'entra\u00eenement pour une course sur sentier. Les exercices ax\u00e9s sur le d\u00e9veloppement de la force du tronc et de la force d'une seule jambe (fente bulgare ou walking lunge) favorisent la stabilit\u00e9 et r\u00e9duisent le risque de blessure. Le renforcement musculaire am\u00e9liore \u00e9galement l'\u00e9conomie de course, ce qui se traduit par une plus grande vitesse et une meilleure endurance musculaire.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Stabilit\u00e9 et \u00e9quilibre - rester sur ses pieds.<\/strong>\nLa blessure la plus fr\u00e9quente chez les coureurs de trail est l'entorse de la cheville. Rien d'\u00e9tonnant \u00e0 cela. L'ajout d'exercices favorisant la force et l'\u00e9quilibre de la cheville vous aidera \u00e0 \u00e9viter les blessures. Commencez par des exercices au poids du corps pour une seule jambe, ainsi que des exercices d'inversion et d'\u00e9version de la cheville \u00e0 l'aide d'une bande de r\u00e9sistance. Avec le temps, passez \u00e0 des exercices avec poids pour une seule jambe qui se concentrent sur un environnement d'entra\u00eenement instable.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Essayez :<\/strong> Exercices sur une seule jambe \u00e0 l'aide d'un ballon Bosu ou d'une planche oscillante pour d\u00e9velopper l'\u00e9quilibre et la force des chevilles.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>\u00c9coutez votre corps - corrigez les d\u00e9s\u00e9quilibres.<\/strong>\nLa douleur est un avertissement du corps qui signale souvent un d\u00e9s\u00e9quilibre musculaire, une faiblesse ou une surutilisation. Soyez attentif \u00e0 ces tiraillements et soyez curieux de savoir o\u00f9 vous \u00eates tendu ou endolori apr\u00e8s une course d'entra\u00eenement. S'ils sont ignor\u00e9s, sur une longue distance, ces d\u00e9s\u00e9quilibres musculaires peuvent se transformer en blessures.<br\/>\n<br\/>Malgr\u00e9 toutes ces diff\u00e9rences, c'est la culture qui entoure le trail running qui le distingue vraiment. Si vous \u00eates d\u00e9butant, les coureurs de trail vous accueillent dans leur monde. Ils s'encouragent mutuellement et n'h\u00e9sitent pas \u00e0 offrir leur soutien si un autre coureur est bless\u00e9. Ils le font pour l'amour de la course \u00e0 pied et pour le temps pass\u00e9 en pleine nature.<br\/>\n<br\/><strong>Le trail running m'a rendu accro, et je ne voudrais pas qu'il en soit autrement.<\/strong><br\/>\n<\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- row text single -->\n<div class=\"gradientnone\">\n<div class=\"row rowSingleColumnWide spacing\">\n    <div class=\"col articleText\">\n        <div class=\"textStyle_2b\" ><br\/>Image par GaudiLab\/Fotolia<br\/>\n<\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- row image single -->\n<div class=\"row rowSingleColumnNarrow spacing\">\n\t<div class=\"col\">\n\t<div class=\"0 scrollAnim\" \n\t    \n\t     style=\"Narrow;position:relative;overflow:hidden;\t;\" >\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"In Collaboration\"\n\t    class=\"\"\n\t    src=\"https:\/\/www.puma-catchup.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/HP_M.jpg\" style=\"transition: 0.35s all;height:100%;width:100%;\t    object-position: 58% 39%; object-fit: cover;\"\/>\n\t    <\/div>\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"descr\">Hannah Porteous est une entra\u00eeneuse personnelle et une coach en bien-\u00eatre bas\u00e9e \u00e0 Sydney, en Australie.

Not only did it take me at least an hour more than the same distance on road would have, but I also spent the next 2 days with a headache and very stiff legs.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Despite my rough entry into trail running, I was soon hooked.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; It is the ultimate endorphin-filled sport: the combination of exploring nature\u2019s finest with the added benefit of the post-exercise runner\u2019s high.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;So how is trail running different from road running?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;The first thing you need to know is that you won\u2019t always run. When tackling steep climbs it is more energy efficient to hike, which can be a welcome change. There may also be sections of technical trail that is better to navigate slowly, reducing the risk of injury while you duck and weave over tree roots and under fallen branches. While the softer surfaces in trail running result in less impact-related injuries, the mixture of stop\/start pace and uneven ground means you will most likely spend more time on your feet. This not only effects the way you will train but also increases the amount of carbohydrates, electrolytes and water you will need during the run.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Nothing about trail running is particularly straight forward therefore neither should your training be. It is important to build \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;a combination of stamina and strength\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; while having the ability to navigate uneven terrain under fatigue. Many road runners are undone on trails by the sheer pressure put on joints during steep climbs and uneven descents.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Top 5 training tips\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; to get you prepared to tackle a trail challenge.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Cardiovascular fitness \u2013 build the engine.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nFirstly you need to build a solid cardiovascular base. Build up your fitness through a mixture of long runs and stair training. Make sure that you start training far enough in advance so that you never increase your distance by more than 10% per week to avoid overtraining injuries.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Terrain specific \u2013 hit the trail.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nFor the most effective training, spend as much time on trails similar to the event.\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt; Even better:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; run sections of the track for your training so you know what you are up against and where you have to dig deep. Training on trails will also develop stability through your joints reducing the risk of injury.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Try:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Hiking, a great alternative to running if you want to add in some more distance without the impact.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Strength training \u2013 reduce injury.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nTo cope with undulating and uneven terrain strength training is a vital component of training for a trail run. Exercises that focus on developing core strength and single-leg strength (Bulgarian split squat or walking lunge) help promote stability and reduce the risk of injury. Becoming stronger also improves running economy, resulting in greater speed and muscular endurance.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Stability \\u0026amp;amp; Balance \u2013 stay on your feet.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nThe most common injury for trail runners is a sprained ankle. No surprises there. Adding in exercises that promote ankle strength and balance will help you avoid injury. Start off with body weight single-leg exercises in addition to exercises that focus on ankle inversion and eversion using a resistance band. Over time, progress this to single-leg weighted exercises that focus on unstable training environment.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Try:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Single-leg exercises using a Bosu ball or wobble board to develop balance and ankle strength.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Listen to your body \u2013 correct imbalances.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nPain is a warning from the body often signalling muscular imbalance, weakness or overuse. Pay attention to these niggles and be curious about where you are tight or sore after a training run.

Not only did it take me at least an hour more than the same distance on road would have, but I also spent the next 2 days with a headache and very stiff legs.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Despite my rough entry into trail running, I was soon hooked.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; It is the ultimate endorphin-filled sport: the combination of exploring nature\u2019s finest with the added benefit of the post-exercise runner\u2019s high.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;So how is trail running different from road running?\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;The first thing you need to know is that you won\u2019t always run. When tackling steep climbs it is more energy efficient to hike, which can be a welcome change. There may also be sections of technical trail that is better to navigate slowly, reducing the risk of injury while you duck and weave over tree roots and under fallen branches. While the softer surfaces in trail running result in less impact-related injuries, the mixture of stop\/start pace and uneven ground means you will most likely spend more time on your feet. This not only effects the way you will train but also increases the amount of carbohydrates, electrolytes and water you will need during the run.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Nothing about trail running is particularly straight forward therefore neither should your training be. It is important to build \\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;a combination of stamina and strength\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; while having the ability to navigate uneven terrain under fatigue. Many road runners are undone on trails by the sheer pressure put on joints during steep climbs and uneven descents.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Top 5 training tips\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; to get you prepared to tackle a trail challenge.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Cardiovascular fitness \u2013 build the engine.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nFirstly you need to build a solid cardiovascular base. Build up your fitness through a mixture of long runs and stair training. Make sure that you start training far enough in advance so that you never increase your distance by more than 10% per week to avoid overtraining injuries.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Terrain specific \u2013 hit the trail.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nFor the most effective training, spend as much time on trails similar to the event.\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt; Even better:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; run sections of the track for your training so you know what you are up against and where you have to dig deep. Training on trails will also develop stability through your joints reducing the risk of injury.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Try:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Hiking, a great alternative to running if you want to add in some more distance without the impact.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Strength training \u2013 reduce injury.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nTo cope with undulating and uneven terrain strength training is a vital component of training for a trail run. Exercises that focus on developing core strength and single-leg strength (Bulgarian split squat or walking lunge) help promote stability and reduce the risk of injury. Becoming stronger also improves running economy, resulting in greater speed and muscular endurance.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Stability \\u0026amp;amp; Balance \u2013 stay on your feet.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nThe most common injury for trail runners is a sprained ankle. No surprises there. Adding in exercises that promote ankle strength and balance will help you avoid injury. Start off with body weight single-leg exercises in addition to exercises that focus on ankle inversion and eversion using a resistance band. Over time, progress this to single-leg weighted exercises that focus on unstable training environment.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Try:\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt; Single-leg exercises using a Bosu ball or wobble board to develop balance and ankle strength.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\u0026lt;strong\\u0026gt;Listen to your body \u2013 correct imbalances.\\u0026lt;\/strong\\u0026gt;\\nPain is a warning from the body often signalling muscular imbalance, weakness or overuse. Pay attention to these niggles and be curious about where you are tight or sore after a training run. If ignored, over a long distance these muscular imbalances could develop into injury.\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;\\n\\u0026lt;br\/\\u0026gt;Despite all of these differences, it\u2019s the culture that surrounds trail running that really sets it apart. If you\u2019re a newbie, trail runners welcome you into their world. They encourage each other and don\u2019t hesitate to offer support if another runner is injured.
