Boost Your Running Performance

If you’re like most runners, you probably don’t do much else besides running.

When it comes to the realm of weightlifting, you aren’t sure what to do or how to do it.

For those reasons, you likely skip strength training all together. 

Who has the time anyway..

But…if you’re looking for the edge to take your running to the next level, you’ll have to grab some poundage and lift it up and down.

I’m here to tell you that, as it relates to weight lifting for runners, single leg variations are king.
 Squats are good. Split squats are better.
Romanian Deadlifts are good. Single leg Romanian Deadlifts are better.
Bridges are good. Single leg bridges are better
Why?

Running is essentially a series of single leg jumps. And the strength of each individual leg matters in the overall propulsion of your body.

Doing double leg training can result in your stronger leg dominating the lift
Doing single leg training ensures each leg gets individual attention and load

Luckily for you, I made a series of quick 15-minute at home strength training workouts for runners. With single leg variations regularly included in each workout.
