# Unlocking Your Running Power: Engine, Transmission, and Wheels


Discover how to engage your body for optimal running performance.


Every runner knows the importance of training, but have you ever considered where your real running power comes from? It’s time to rethink the way we approach our runs.




## The Real Engine Behind Your Run


Running isn’t just about your legs; it’s a full-body experience. According to Coach Bala from Beyond the Mile, **your hips and glutes are the engine**, your core acts as the transmission, and your legs serve as the wheels. When you focus too much on pushing with your legs, you might be leaving significant power untapped. Dont just train your legs to run. Train your whole body. Your hips and glutes are the engine, your core is the transmission, and your legs are the wheels. Activate, build, and use your engine, and you’ll find that running becomes an effortless part of your routine.
