No Equipment Needed To Improve Running
Form With This Strength Training Scheme
Do you want to improve your running times?
Do injuries prevent you from running at your
full capacity? If you answered yes to any of
these questions then this guide is for you! A
new strength training guide has been
released from online fitness expert Fitness
Fahrenheit.
The guide targets distance and
marathon runners and outlines
the importance of strength
training in helping these
athletes achieve their goals.
The first thing the guide addresses is the
myth that strength training is not for
runners. It does this by highlighting how
strength training can increase your
endurance, strengthen your bones,
improve your running form, help you lose
weight, and prevent injury.
It further goes on to explain how
strength training workouts can help the
distance and marathon runners run
faster to improve their overall
performances and adds that strength
training is done by the most successful
runners in the world.
The guide indicates that studies show 85% of
runners experience injury annually due to the
repetitive motion being done in training. it is
likely that muscles will tear over time due to the
strain. Strength training allows for stronger
muscles to be built thus reducing the likelihood
of injury.
It also explains that doing strength training 2-3
times per week will not cause runners to bulk
up, in fact, bodybuilders have supplements
incorporated into a crazy workout schedule to
enable them to bulk up and this takes years of
commitment. Going to the gym only will not
induce that.
One of the most important aspects of strength
training is nutrition. The guide explains that
maximizing nutrition will give the best results
because the muscles that you workout need
protein to repair and recover. When muscles
repair, they get stronger but an unhealthy diet
prevents that.
Stunted progress can be a result of a bad
diet and could render all efforts useless. As
such, it is important to stay hydrated and
consume healthy sources of protein, healthy
