Runner’s Strength Workout: Stay Injury Free and Power Up Those Hills with These Moves!

Often runners spend all their time running.–Sound Familiar??

Doing this, leads to overuse injuries as well as that “skinny fat” look none of us want to have.

It is important to do strength training a couple times a week, to keep you running injury free and keep your body looking toned and fit.

I developed this runner’s strength workout to do just that.  The exercises are designed to work your gluteus medius, obliques, and stability muscles to protect against overuse injuries such as runners’ knee, while also working your larger muscles such as your gluteus maximus, biceps, and triceps so you stay toned with a perky booty and can power up those hills!

 

Do each exercise 3x through for the perfect 15 min strength routine to complement your running!
