The Importance of Strength Training for Runners

Episode 27 - Simple Strength Work For Runners That Works

You asked. I'm delivering. You wanted to hear about some basic strength training that you can do to help you run better... help you become a better runner... help you be a stronger athlete while you run. 

We talk planks, we talk flamingos and pretzel rods and bicycles and fire hydrants and a bunch more simple exercises you can do to help you achieve what you want to achieve.

Yes, those weird names are just nicknames I use for the different exercises. I'm sure there are far more technical names for these same exercises. But they're boring names and besides I don't know them or knew them and forgot them.

And don't worry... there is an offer from me to do some videos that can accompany this episode if enough of you ask for them. 

Here are some sweet links for you to investigate:
