Pose Method Running-Truth or Misinformation, Science or Pseudoscience

Pose Method running has a lot of avid followers and detractors. This is part one of a deep dive into truths and fictions of Pose Method as viewed through the lens of the Walking Code/Martin Movement Method core movement analysis system. How can one methodology of teaching be seen by so many as complete nonsense while at the same time being adopted by organizations as big as CrossFit and the US military. Is Pose Method the gold standard for understanding how to run, or is it complete nonsense? People frequently ask my opinion of Pose Method because of my detailed movement system, which can be applied to most any activity. I personally think that the theoretical aspect of Pose Method is nonsense, but as with other movements that catch on like this, there are grains of truth surrounded by misuse of science. I am not just going to say what I think is wrong with the Pose methodology, but I am going to explain what exactly people end up doing when they think they are following it. In Part 1, I will introduce the subject and then detail my analysis of the "falling from support" component of Pose Method.
