As runners we probably all picture being like Usain Bolt, perhaps Mo Farah or maybe Paula Radcliffe, we all want to get faster and many want to be able to run longer. Here we look at part one of the question of just how we can do that.
Ultra Endurance Athlete, Author and Coach Lisa Tamati takes you through three exercises that get progressively harder that will help you strengthen your hips, knees and ankles and enable you to have more stability as a runner. Runners often neglect strength work - opting instead to just collect more kilometres but having a stable core, hips, knees and ankles and having glutes that are fully activated is crucial to running stronger for longer.
Our hips get a hard time and need some special love and attention if we want to run at our best. Improve performance and avoid injury. Run Coach Lisa Tamati shows you three great posterior chain and anterior chain stretches specifically aimed at hips and psoas.
