The Ready State: Mobility Training with Dr. Kelly Starrett › Forums › General › What is causing this?
Hi,
Is it a motor control issue or lack of mobility required to achieve the position?
If it is a motor control issue work to correct running technique.
Complete drills which focus on pulling mechanics.
One example
Paradiso CrossFit Running – Wall Drills
If it is lack of mobility you need to restore normal range of motion to the area of restriction to achieve ideal mechanics and perform the movement correctly. You need to restore internal rotation and bias for running (the movement).
Internal rotation with flexion bias.

As you do the drills and stretches Kaitlin suggests it is also good to add in some weighted walking lunges challenging your mid line in different ways (holding dumbbells by your sides, in the shoulders, or overhead) and the same with some Bulgarian split squats. Go slow and controlled, the load will help pattern in change along with running.
