Before you take your first running steps, it is critical to have a firm background in athletic conditioning to prevent injury, adapt to training, and improve lean muscle mass for strength and power. Running requires functional movement and strength in all planes of motion and a high-level of muscular coordination to perform at your best. We will be using these routines (among others) on a semi-daily basis this year, and I wanted to post videos of them here for you to do on your own as desired.
Core X- Excellent routine for general core strength and stability.
Hip Routine- Hip and gluteal routine to help prevent a variety of injuries; can be used as a pre-run warm-up for those with existing hip, knee, or back issues.
Leg Circuit- Essential lower-body strength routine for all runners; I modified this to create our usual "Colorado Leg Circuit"
