The Plyometric Exercises That Actually Moved the Needle for My Client’s Labral Tear
About this episode
Dr. Sarah discusses plyometric exercises that helped a marathon client overcome hip pain while training for a race.
In this episode, I walk you through the plyometric exercises that ACTUALLY moved the needle for one of my marathon clients dealing with hip pain while training for CIM and trying to Boston Qualify. We start with where she was getting stuck—long runs with speed work, faster efforts, and lingering hip irritation despite already having a strong foundation—then dive into the exact progression we used to improve her hip control, landing mechanics, and confidence at faster speeds. I break down how I sequence plyometric training for runners, from simple skater hops and force absorption drills to faster reactive work, plus the warm-up and training adjustments that helped her finally feel strong during speed sessions again.
