• ACTIVATION EXERCISES FOR RUNNER - HIPS AND LOWER BACK

  Posted on September 19 2018

  Runners need to mobilise to stretch and activate the right muscles.

  This video coach Neil takes you through some exercises that do just that. After stretching and mobilising we now need to activate the muscles around the hips and lower back.

  Teaching the body to activate the important muscles for running. Getting stability in the midrift and the core is crucial.

  We need balance on both sides of the body, if we have got the glutes doing the job they should and the core doing what it should, that holds the pelvis in the position it should which relieves tension on the lower back.

  Being mobile, having a full range of motion in your joints, being flexible and helping your muscles recovery when tight and knotty is crucial for long term running success.

  It's a much neglected area for busy runners who just want to collect more kilometers rather than spending precious minutes every day helping their body recover and helping to avoid injuires. This is especially important for the older runner.

  Here Neil Wagstaff takes Ultra Endurance Athlete Lisa through a simple mobility workout you can do post run.
