Foundation Performance's Michael Silva: Proper Warm-Up For Runners

Foundation Performance owner Michael Silva and his staff have put a lot of track & field athletes back on their feet again at his three facilities (Pawtucket, Warren, Plainfield, Mass.). We've featured several informative videos from Silva, a physical therapist, exercise physiologist, and certified strength and conditioning specialist, on RI MileSplit. These videos have given athletes pointers on Building Achilles Strength, Correcting Hip Imbalance, Proper Warm-up Techniques and Battling Plantar Fasciistis. We also posted a number of articles by Silva on our site and talked with him at length for a great Q&A that we also shared with our MileSplit audience.

When it comes to getting one physically ready for maximum performance at any level, beginner to elite, Silva is among the leaders in the industry. In the coming months we will continue to feature his videos with Marathon Sports and any other information that we feel is important to you.

Here's our latest. In this video, Silva discusses the proper way to warm-up for runners.
