ABOUT ME: I’m James Dunne, a runner, sports rehabilitation therapist (similar to physical therapist) and coach based in the UK (Norwich and London).
Since 2007 I’ve been working with athletes focusing specifically on helping distance runners and triathletes overcome injury and improve performance through developing their individual running technique.
Running biomechanics and physical therapy are real passions of mine. I love to help runners run strong and stay injury free.

Really great advice, James. I'm 90kg so, while not 120kg, I still have to factor in pretty much everything you've mentioned here. Zone 2 on the bike and targeted physio work on my calf and quad muscles (and a sprinkling of yoga) have probably helped the most. Your videos are helping a lot – keep up the great work!
Thanks James👍
Great video James! 116kg runner here (47 years old, 183cm) and it's nice to find content tailored towards heavier runners. I found that 4-5 days a week was too much and I felt exhausted and sore. 3 days a week with 2-3 strength workouts and mobility most days keeps my body in shape and mostly pain free.
Solar glide which looks like the ultraboost. But I agree I have 4 pairs in rotation to let the shoe decompress
Thanks for that I’m pretty much bang on that weight and maybe backing off a bit will be helpful I’m currently doing 2 full body weight sessions a week too 😳
To piggyback off of your comments about reducing frequency, something I've done in the past is to use a 10-day cycle instead of 7, or even a 2-week cycle. It gives me a chance to get an extra day or two of recovery per cycle without having to add too many miles per session. It's pretty much the same as your suggestion, but psychologically (and maybe logistically) it seems to be helpful.
