Stress Fractures Part 6

If you are a runner in particular, you may have a longer stride. This may be putting you at higher risk for a stress fracture. So if you shorten your stride, this can lower your chances of a stress fracture.

The problem is that most people have a difficult time actually shortening their stride. You may have to work with a coach or a trainer who can watch your stride and advise you on the best way to shorten your stride.
