After teaching for a few years, Nicholas Romanov was puzzled that while there were instructions on how to teach and a technique for any other athletic activity, there was nothing of the sort for running. There was a lot of descriptive writing, lot of accumulated data but no concept, no standard, no technique.
In 1977 he developed the Pose Method and realized that it applied to all movement.
By 1988 Dr. Romanov had been already teaching his method to all his athletes as well as students at the Physical Education Department of the Chuvash State Pedagogical University where he taught Physical Education and Biomechanics.
After a decade of researching, studying available data and formulating his concept, Dr. Romanov finally published his original work – the Pose Method of Running. Released by University Press, the booklet remained a virtual unknown for another 5 years.
Four years after moving to USA, Dr. Romanov was working with elite triathletes and was invited to work with Juniors at the Junior Development Olympic Triathlon Camp in New Mexico. Between 1996-2002 Dr. Romanov presented a series of lectures and conducted training for USA Triathlon.
In 1997 the original video “The Pose Method of Running” was released on a VHS and within months sold over 100,000 copies.
After an enormous popularity of the VHS and DVD releases, the Pose Method of Running book is finally published in 2002.
While the Pose Method® applies to all athletic movement, due to the popularity of running and an abnormally high rate of injuries in the sport, the Pose Method® of Running was selected as the first technique to be published. As the result, it is the most known Pose Method® module.
Due to Dr. Romanov’s extensive work with triathletes, the Pose Method® of Triathlon Techniques is selected for publishing and is released in 2007.
Shortly before the release of the book, Dr. Romanov completes his 20 page work titled “How Gravity Works in Running” and it is included into the book.
