We asked our experts to come up with 10 essential strength exercises for runners.The primary goal of a strength training routine for runners is to increase power and strength in the muscles of the lower body. These include the shins, calves, and plantar muscles.
I’m not implying you ignore the core and upper body. You need to train them as hard and as often as you do the lower body.Because you’ll only be able to do a power exercise for a short period of time before recovery, power training delivers a similar metabolic boost as interval training and beats cardio in efficient calorie-torching.

So useful! Super efficient and functional! Love these real workouts that actually do help improving my running
I started running about 2 weeks ago and am already totally addicted, but worried about the lack of strength training. This is really helpful, thank you! Have subscribed:)
Question: can this routine be used on rest days? Like as an alternative of a rest day?
Really love the exercises, but surely 20 reps is not ‘strength training’?
Great routine! Off-topic question: where did Charlie get those rad shorts?
Great workout routine! And additionally liked the fashion surprise when you pulled out of the beginning shot.
Just did the full without with 3 sets each. Took me 30 minutes. Maybe the 10 is one set of each. Thanks for the tips. Been running for years, but have never taken the time to do strength training. Hopefully this will keep the nagging injuries at bay
This workouts uses before running or after running pls tell me bro
01:20 Reverse Lunge
03:59 Dead Bug
06:50 Single Leg Box Hop
09:30 The Routine (Sets & Reps)
Where’s your meet going to be at when you run the 100? I might come watch.
definitely been doing some of these wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but now i know
Should you not be cancelling swing on hanging core workouts as it completely reduces the strain on the core?
Such a great, helpful, motivating channel. Don’t forget to download the app. Support them!
It would be great to get the routine written in the notes or at the end of the video. thanks!!
Nick. What do you think about Kim Collins having run a PB of 9.93 for the 100m at age 40?!
White people with their “how to” videos… I swear i do not know of an elite white male runner.
I did this workout yesterday. Reverse lunges, dead bugs, box jumps and monster walks. I am SORE today, can feel my glutes all the way up my lower back. Lol
Anna, Andy, loved this! I agree that the cool down should follow the clock as well.
First time trying out your channel, subscribed right away! Great instruction and definitely felt it. Jumping lunges are brutal but they work!
Second time in a week I have done this and will do on my non running days BUT is there anything I can substitute for the lungesI am rubbish and my balance awfulI have run 3 marathons but had flu and back to ground zero so really want to build strengthI am 59 years old!
Definitely gonna add those box hops into my HIIT session. Thanks!
I used to study videos of you running in the Olympics while I was training for the 800m in high school. It’s awesome to see you making content and running a business! Cheers. I’m recently getting back into running after a solid 4 years out of the game, so glad I ran into this channel!
It would be so, so, so helpful if you guys could either write the workout in the description box or pin it in the comments. Keep up the great content. Thanks for all you do!
I have really painful ITBS especially when running flat or downhill. To a point i can’t run at all…. No pain uphill! Do you think hamstring strength can be related to that? I did all gluteus routines i found online but they don’t seem to help a lot… My quads seem to be doing a lot during hip FLEXION if i am walking a very steep downhill for example… I feel some kind of weakness during that phase but not during extension. What do you think might cause this? Nerve damage or weakness somewhere where i haven’t searched? Thank you:)
Started adding this to my weekly routine. Thanks! One question. For the box hops, how large is the box? 4ftx4ft?
Great Video and great workout, I just would like for the cool down to be longer:-)
I asked for this type of workout a couple of months ago!!! Yay, so excited to do this!!!
Great routine Ben…Simple and very effective… I can see myself getting stronger already ��
I did this today, thank you SO MUCH for helping me get something else besides running done! The video was very well put together, easy to follow, and super effective on my upper back and abs, which is great!
Great exercises and what makes it even more special is how you demonstrate the exercises highlighting what all to avoid. Can you please also share a video on toe and heel stretching along with exercises to make these stronger.
Great tip on the deadbugs! Game changer! I wasn’t getting much out of them but, now I do.
Really like it. One question, on the running dead bug…do I have to keep my pelvic floor muscles contracted all the time?? As soon as I pick up my legs that goes out the window ���� help!!!
Great workout! I love the follow along. It makes it so much funner. And I too was dripping by the end. Thanks for putting this together.
Wow what a workout, really pumps up your fitness level. Awesome stuff. Keep ’em coming! Cheers.
I love the energy and the modifications. So relevant for runners and beautifully filmed and edited ��
Is it bad that my lower back pops every time I extend a leg during the dead bug?
Indeed weight lifting has its place in all running distances. Is it needed for a 5 or 6 hour marathoner?
How often do you include strength and conditioning in your training?
Hi Ben, really good video. Going to try and do these exercises a bit more to try and improve technique and strength. Keep the advice coming
Did these exercises for the first time this evening, wow you can really feel it! If you take your time and really think about position you can really feel it work, thanks for the video and advice, awesome ��
Wonderful explanations of the progression and of being mindful!
Danke! Ich kannte alle Übungen aber für Beginner ist alles wunderbar erklärt und besonders auf die wichtigen Komponenten ausdrücklich hingewiesen (Hüfte…). Das ist leider nicht bei allen solchen Videos selbstverständlich. Bleib gesund!
Started using these as additional training during my 10km to half marathon plan following GTN’s plan. You guys and girls at GTN are truly awesome! Flying the flag, helping others, helping noobs and pros stay injury free, great advice all round. Thank you all.
Should we use running or gym shoes during this exercise set?
Thanks for this video. I’m new to running and trying to find things to do on non running days to help prevent injury. These are really hard but hopefully in a few weeks I’ll be much better.
hey guys please make a long video about how to master psitol squats (i can only do jump squats ) i mean what is my next step what are the next exercices…
Will these exercises help with knee pain while running. I’m no physio but I think it’s it band syndrome
You are very authentic in your videos. That’s why i subscribed
Oh the split squat! My old knees just don’t like it. Or any lunge for that matter!
The pic of the two of you with your great smiles got me to watch this video. You look like you are having so much fun! Very good video. Thanks!
This is the type of Workout Wednesday that we have all been waiting for Nick. Thank you!
Hello from Colombia in South America, can you tell me the name of the song and artist in the video?
Thanks for that Heather. Your firm was perfect giving me a clear guide to what I should be aiming for. I’m working on my hips and glutes to prevent injury as I’ve suffered several in the last year.
Do you have any videos or tips to learn how not to favour one leg over the other because I think I use my stronger right leg much more than the left and that creates a strain and possible injury.
I like to do split squats using a weight bench for my back leg.
How often did you do strength training when training for 800m?
Perfect! Reminds me that I need to resume my core / strength training again!
Oh how I wish I had been doing these before I got injured:(
Open up YouTube and an old school Ben P video pops up that I haven’t seen, look how far you’ve come and so quickly too, and a lot better in front of the camera cuz you did make me chuckle here….sorry ������ let me show you in more detail….. loved it �� long time fan loving your work bud ps, Sarah makes watching your channel more worthwhile now especially when she’s taking the mick outta you like last night “are you asking me” ������������
nice one!!! I gona try this out tomorrow. Do you guys have instagram??
I have slight scoliosis and I’m having pain across the front of the hip joint, its tender to pressure, feels like the bursa? Can you give me some advice?
Hey GTN, I’ve signed up for Ironman Canada, I’m a bit nervous for the bike because I don’t have the time to go out and do 5 hour bike rides. Is there is a way I can improve my endurance in the gym? Would doing shorter rides at a higher intensity be beneficial?
I’ve always been pretty strong and not a bad runner but I struggled with those jumping lunges, definitely something I need to work on. Thanks guys ��
Brilliant, good to do on the July wet days we’ve been having ����
Hi Nick, thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and your experience. I just purchased Coach Radcliffe’s manual, I am looking forward to building some good strenght with his method.
WHO thinks this video is the best?❤️���� LIKE #workout2020 #Fitness #Gym2020
Training for boot camp and needed something more than fartleks and tempo runs/speed intervals. Currently training to run a consistent sub 12:30 2mile. Thank you for this video.
What’s your bench press and squat pr? Or the most you remember doing?��
Some of the exercises you have done are putting your lower back in a high injury risk. Never bend your back 90° with weigh bar please. Thanks for your videos.
I recently started working with a Personal Trainer and after having started running 7 years ago, I realized that I have neglected strength training. As a Master’s Runner, I need to keep muscle mass consistent because it goes away a lot faster than when I was younger and not running but able to lift weight and lose weight in a flash.
You are a great inspiration. Thanks for always giving back in the form of your advice. I have just one question. How many sets of each exercise should one do, specifically if you are training for a Half marathon?
Your response will be appreciated.
Thanks
What can I do instead of lunges? It kills my knees every time I do them, so I have just stopped all together. Great video.
I get a good laugh when I hear people say they don’t want to bulk up thinking once they touch weights they start to putting on mass….But in reality you hear/see more people struggling to put weight on & how difficult it can be….the commitment to your workouts, nutrition (which is huge), followed by recovery….It does have a place for every runners program and it’s what your goals are. I personally prefer bodyweight training/calisthenics b/c of easier access & just preference. They work….if it didn’t I wouldn’t see how Herschel Walker develpoed physique with just thousands push ups and sit ups everyday.
Thank you! Due to quarantine, my strict mom will only let us out of our rooms foor food, bathroom, etc. so I have not been able to go outside and run! This is helping me keep in track with XC
Sir how much work out you had done to deacrese your timing in the 1500m event and what supplement you took please describe the workout session
Giving a seminar on this at the NYRR RUNCENTER July 30th @ 6 PM. Come on down!
Hi Nick—thanks for the great video! Do you think it matters when you lift (after hard workouts or easy runs)? I have more time to lift on my easy days but don’t want to affect my faster workouts
These workouts are great. Easy to follow. I love the countdown & the little box showing you whats next. Please do some more!!!
What about a 4 week training plan for those of us who are already stocked up on run gum?
Imagine, Nick coaching a college team. Championships there way.
I’m a little concerned about the single leg box hop, how can I do properly without injuring my knee? It seems to put all the weight of the body when leaping to the front
“Keep your toes light as if you were avoiding to disturb a neighbor under you!”
Me, living in an apartment over somebody, at 10PMThat’s my goal here… >0<
Anyways, I have a few questions I hope you could answer!
Okay, so I’m 11 and I run a lot. I’ve run a few half marathons and I’m best at long-distance running (I probably have slow twitch muscles) but I’ve been focusing on improving my mile time down to a sub 7 min mile. I adore running and exercise but there’s one problem. I’ve had many knots in my ankles and calves and back and legs for a while now, probably because;
1A large backpack
2Running so much
3Working out a lot
4Life
I’ve taken many hot baths and cold showers, used those roller thingies, temporarily stopped exercising and massaged myself a few times, but they aren’t going away, really. It’s just muscle knots, they’re not that bothersome, but they can make my ankles and body ache while exercising a lot and they make my muscles feel tight(keep in mind, I do a lot of yoga and stretching as well.) I know my performance could increase by a lot and my overall enjoyment of exercise would increase. Do you guys have any ideas to prevent and help this? Do you guys, or anybody in the comments, experience this? Thanks a lot, and stay safe! I love you all <3.
…Also… you should try out making a non-jump workout for those of us above people.
My gym is fartlek training on a track over hills, which will develop power and strength three times better than a bunch of generic gym exercises. Want to get strong and fast at running RUN. It is strength development at your lactate threshold, doubling your training effect.
Nice pair of Ghosts! I like how all of the workouts you showed weren’t the typical situps, bench press or bicep curl exercises that many people like to focus on. Many dual purpose exercises, which helps maximize the time spent working out. Work smarter, not harder!
Is the 4 week course something you just keep repeating from the start after each 4 weeks or do you do something different?
Loved this workout! Also loved the “train-along-style” of the video, makes it so much easier for me to actually do it 😉
Can you do a video on proper 800m form, maybe analysis of subscriber videos
Brutal… I got an 8 minute half-marathon PB last month after a 12 week training block averaging 50km per week. But this strength training killed me. I got half way through the the 2nd rep 1st time, and just completed the workout a week later by reducing the intensity. Anything that makes your legs burn like this must be good for you!
use resistance resistance band set its awesome i love it so much you will love it to trust me get one for yourself at some store or you can get where i get trainhome.shop
i’m being real with you nick, i was just thinking about ideas for lifting. keep the content coming!
Yo Nick, I was hoping you could consider my situation regarding lifting. I’m an 800m runner, rising sophomore in college, consistently running 1:54, and I ran 1:53.07 senior year of high school. I weigh about 168 with a 13% body fat, and I’m also in Army ROTC. I’ve been advised to stop lifting as much and try to “shed” muscle, but I really don’t like this idea of not lifting much. I’ve never ran more than 25 miles in a week due to lower extremity issues. However, I added cross training into my training too, and was doing about 20-25 converted miles (10 min on bike = 1 mile ran). I want to get faster but I also want to maintain size, but especially strength, for ROTC. Do you have any advice?
Love the end with the kettlebell massaging the quads… felt amazing.
What is a good bench press for a 15 year old cross country runner. 135
Good choice of exercises, I find it hard to get my runners to do S&C but I advise them strongly it’s more important than their so called recovery run for injury prevention and long jeverdy as an athlete.
Are there any stretching exercises that are to be done before the workout because when I do the lunges it just seems rather taxing on my knees and thighs.
Great work-out, thank you! I realized rather quickly just how much I am missing out on by neglecting strength training and only focusing on running. Will definitely be adding this and others into my regular routine!
Great doing these videos but you need to do your research better. Even though it is classified as beginner you need to keep it real.
More reps doesn’t make it strength, you would better off going for a run. Load is how we increase strength don’t confuse strength work with just doing a movement. Low rep, heavy load
Glutes are not powerhouse for running you calves (soleus) are and the faster you go youth hamstrings.
Activate?????
Amazing stuff, how late into the session did you guys implement this? Thinking about putting it into work during the off-season/into January next year. Also ever thought about coaching?
Love how this is both a genuine place for running advice and also a plug for rungum
I couldnt help but to freestyle rap to the instrumental the whole time
i injured myself trying the first one LMAO
edit: i can barely stand up after the first exercise what’s wrong with me
Gotta work on the mobility and stability in that overhead squat!
I’ve just tried all these and…let’s say I have plenty of room for improvement
Great workout, i would only prefer the cool down to be a bit longer to switch to different cool down Exercises
Is this what helped you in the south west cross country champs?
at first i thought it’s a piece of cake, but guess what.. i was dying doing them
Hi there, great video! I wish I had invested time in these exercises when I was training for my first marathon last year. I had no upper or lower body strength and suffered as a result. I’ve got marathon number two in 7 weeks time and I’ve been incorporating these exercises twice a week into my training schedule.
Do you think I should increase this to three or is that too much?
Thanks!
Do you have any tips for 400m running, the milage and difference from 800
These are all phenomenal movements but the majority are done completely wrong in this video. If you attempt to do these at home by yourself, most people will get a lot of injuries. Some movements are so advanced that most people will take months to progress in order to perform them safely. If you decide to do any of these, please do them with a qualified coach.
Hello! Thanks a lot for these wonderful exercises. I just wonder if they would be beneficial for someone who has just recovered from posterior shin splints?
Hey Nick, I truly enjoy your videos, especially the ones concerning your 100 meter sprint quest. I haven’t seen any of those lately. Are you still training for the 100 meters?
Thanks I’m a new runner and just did 3 sets of all of them, awesome will keep doing it ��
Just done this. I run a bit, very slowly, but that’s all I do and my running never improves. I’ve also put on weight so getting my heart rate up is good. This was great and at least doing it at home, I wasnt embarrassed when I had to pause it for longer or simplify the moves. Hopefully I’ll get better over time. Thanks, it was very well put together. Maybe just a little longer on the warm down moves. ��
Ben what the heck is that intro music, did you go through lots of options….and choose that?��
I thought this would be easy…. was I sooooo wrong:-) Great workout, thanks for putting this together!
This.dude.looks.like..a.toothpick..looks.. like.he.needs.to.eat..itz.the.truth
Thanks for this, I’m a brand new runner, it’s great to have some simple exercises to help build my strength.
Thanks for the information thru your video,And I will apply it.Im 50 years old I started to run last year.By the grace of God I reach 20kms back and forth.
Nice! Massive kettle bell Nate. What is risk of bending knees more on kb swings?
This is great. I’ve just purchased your Marathon training plan so i’ll be certain to use this as the basis to my Strength Training days. Plan looks awesome as well! Can’t wait to get started
I incorporate this strength workout after LSD session. Really help me in battling knee pain and after few months, I can say I’m fully recovered. Thanks, Ben
Great tips, going to start incorporating these into my training.
I feel like I should warn people after my experience doing this yesterday. I can hardly walk today because of intense knee pain, both knees. Today I was supposed to run, but noooooo. I don’t know how long it is going to take to heal up. It’s really bad. I usually do a different runner strength training video, no problems, but thought I would change it up yesterday. I believe it was all the one-legged hopping. It was pretty jarring. And it’s not like I’m super weak or anything. I started back running over a month ago, and am an avid mountain biker. But now I’m a couch-sitter for who knows how long )-: I am really sad…

Brilliant Ben, can’t wait until you give some insight of the training you do to improve your half marathon/ marathon pace
Going for a Christmas 5k run in the park. Hopefully, no one else got the same idea. If so, I’ll wish them a Merry Christmas anyway.

Great training! I’m definitely will utilize this training!!!!
Hi, what diet should we be looking into if we’re looking into these types of exercises?
Great workout… I modified quite a few because I’m unfit/had a baby 3 months ago �� e.g. didn’t jump my lunges, kept my feet on the ground for Russian twist, knees on ground for planks, kept both feet on ground for bridges.
your words of encouragement were really well timed and….encouraging.
exercises are great, but the rep range…. this could be on “how to get big legs”
8-12 reps is for bodybuilders. (1-5 makes you stronger without getting BIG! and 15-20+ reps will ofc. not make you as strong, but atleast you dont get big bulcky legs….)
Hi guys i just started a blog about me becoming runner again, I will try to post some of my every day training, thoughts and fighting every one of us as runners go through so feel free to check it out leaving some follow like or coment will for sure make me very happy:) thank you guys sorry for spaming https://wordpress.com/view/stubbornrunners.wordpress.com
Liking the content Ben, liking the channel it was about time!! See you’ve got your audio sorted!!
Thanks guys. Great workout. Certainly got the heart pumping ������
Great video Ben. I always thought you had to use weights for strength training and had to be in the gym, hence why I found it difficult to fit in around running.
I just started running again great video very informative thank you keep up the good work
Just done this for the first time and I’m gonna add it in once a week to my trainingneed to work on my strength!
I play rugby and run track at the same time so it gets confusing weather I should work on muscle endurance or strengthening what do u think I should work on
This is follow along? jesus. By the 6th warmup, I was winded.
Great workout. For the extra few seconds of film though could we show the whole 15 seconds of each stretch at the end as some of us actually do the warm down….. keep up the good work.
That was tough, been isolating for 10 days, haven’t run for two weeks. Thought I’d better do something other than Andy’s Wild Workouts with the kids though. Great workout, just need to do it more and work on the Russian twists. Thanks guys!
That girl in the back with the barbell is really getting it in. I’m curious as to what that targets and how long should you hold the weight.
How many time should a 1500m/800m runner do weight training per week?
This is so great. As a 400 and 800 runner who wasn’t sure what to do training wise this channel is amazing.
Hi Ben question I’ve always wondered. On days you’re not running, obviously it’s massive to incorporate stuff like this into your training.. but would you stretch/roll before or after the strengthening? I’ve never been sure which way round to do it. Love the vids!
I am wondering who is replying the comments i bet it is Anna ��
Wow those jumping lunges were so hard i am so proud i keep pushing those till the last second ��
I’m an aspiring sprinter for the future, came about this session aimlessly scrolling through workouts. I used this session to get myself fit for other workouts that will be sent to me by my coach and I just found out I’m not as ready as I thought I was but with this session and many more from your channel, i”ll hopefully be ready for my main workouts. BTW I loved it and yes I was dripping.
Really enjoyed it. Harder than I thought it would be. Cool down could be slowed down a touch. Felt a little rushed. Well done ������
No joke, I have witnessed 90 lb Kenyan marathoners lifting weights. ALL runners training for ALL distances can benefit from lifting weights.
How much weight are you using there in the Push Jerk Behind?
As a trail runner, this is a good routine! Going to try to do this 2 x week on my off days. Thanks!
what about Nordic curls? haven’t there been meta analysis’ been done that show that it prevents hamstring strains in runners?
u guys rock! u not only suggest exercises, but rather explain the important aspects. gonna use at least the first and last exercise to finish some of my running sessions
The workout is:
Reverse lunge 20 reps
Running dead bug 1 min
Single leg box hop 1 min per direction, 2 min total)
1 minute rest
Repeat 4x.
This is excellent, non-traditional stuff that has a solid basis in PT. Thanks guys!
This is one of the best workout videos I’ve seen. Really well edited, the preview you get for the next exercise lets you get into position in time which is a small touch but super helpful. Tough but manageable, and you can pick up the pace if you want, love it. Only small suggestion would be to make the cool down longer and slower, but apart from that it’s near perfect.
Great video. Thank you. I recently have started running and ran my first half-marathon. I’m really out of shape sad to say. I’ve seen the plank on many videos. And it looked easy until I tried it watching your video. not easy! I definitely realized I have a weak core. And I need to do a lot more strength exercising. You wouldn’t think I’m out of shape because I don’t look like it. And I do physical labor. But I am. Thanks again.
Had been doing this daily for the past week and I hate it every single time..�� but it has made my legs stronger than before. ��
Does these exercises, help in 5k, 10k or half marathon, plz tell ����.
Love this. Might just be my new Strength Day go to had to simplify a couple exercises which means it’s challenging enough to work up to doing in full! Great! Thank you ����
THANK YOU for this video! I just subscribed! I love the workouts A LOT!!
Cheers for the video, sometimes cramming in runs between working nights and having a toddler in the house is difficult, wanted to eat dinner as a family but felt to full to run before I start work, this video stepped in to the rescue, happy days ����
Great tips, liking it Ben, defo need to get some of these on my channel too! Let me know if you’re keen to collab! Best wishes, Claire
Hey there, just wondering how far apart we should place the box markers?
Unfortunately no matter how light footed I am, living in a 19th century tenement it’s going to sound like a herd of elephants for my downstairs neighbour
A long distance runner trying to get back into my routine after a few months’ break. This is an excellent workout. Intensity was about 8/10 for me since I’m out of shape, but I felt great afterwards. The graphics and timing were great, I felt like I was with my coach. I also love that this is a workout that requires no special equipment. But I agree with Erna that the cool down should be slower. Thank you guys!
I just did 4 rounds, Got my heart rate up and was sweating! The box jumps are fun, but even though I figure skate, I could still feel the burn! Thanks for posting this!
Great workouts,I have been doing for last one week,it was strenuous at first instance, then used to it
these are great! i’ve been fitting each of these 2 workouts into my routine every week since release. Would be good to see more, but i understand there may be restraints on this.
Hi! Ive been doing the 2 sessions now. Could you please create a video for SHINS SPLINTS INJURY WORKOUT.
Thank you!
Great stuff. Any chance in cool down you could allow 15 secs to save need to pause? Whole family attempting. Thank you!
Haven’t done much strength work recently so found this quite challenging! In particular those jumping lunges once I got past the first round I was lucky if I could do a regular lunge without falling over!
I found this harder than going for an actual run haha! I have to take a few weeks off running as I injured my legs by wearing the wrong trainers, so hopefully this will keep me fit in the meantime!
Hello, have been running for around a month and decided to take on this morning routine for the first time this morning. I am not particularly strong and domt really ever do whole body work outs like this. I found it really.tough and towards the end was struggling to finish some of the exercises. Do you have any tips??
This is very advanced especially for runners with lower back pain.
Do you ever plan on coaching at the pro or collegiate level? I feel that you would make a great coach with all of the knowledge you have about track
These are really great!!! Love easy but helpful workouts I can do at home. Thanks!
Hey Nick, thanks for responding to my question of two days ago so quickly. I have a question you might want to address in a video concerning your Olympic race and PR. While you broke 143.00, which is fantastic, do you feel you ran your best possible race? I only ask because you were closing like a freight train in the last 130 meters and felt you might have had a bit too much left in the tank at the finish and could have beaten the other American in the race. I noticed in your Diamond League races afterward that you went with the leaders more and ran some excellent winning races not breaking 1:43 but so damn close. Just wanted to know your thoughts on that one race. Thanks and looking forward to more of your 100-meter training adventures. Dan
I’ve been loving these videos with Charlie, especially the exercise routines for runners and the injury assessment and treatment series. You guys have great knowledge and style as well! 😉 ♡♡♡
I’ve been running 10km-30km everyday but the strength exercises are what was missing!! Thank you so much for this, it was a real workout I could hardly handle it! I’m sweating lots!! Look forward to incorporating strength conditioning 2/3 times per week. It will improve my runs for sure. Appreciate you two making this amazing guided work out to follow����✊��
PHEW! I found that really tough and had to modify the jumping lunges for plain old lunges but hopefully in time I can get there. Great workout!
This was a great workout.
What’s a way to get going with the Russian twists? I just can’t get my legs off the ground and do the twist side to side.
Hi, the day after doing this workout, my legs were so incredibly sore that I could not walk, bend down or even straighten my leg. Is that normal? 3 days later, it still hurts to walk. The only exercise I have done before is running 5km and cycling. Will D. O. M. S get less painful the more I do this workout?
Thanks
This workout left me sore for at least 4 days! But after recovering, my calves feel stronger than ever.
to many stupid and dangerous exercises.Rule number 1 in the Gym avoid injury so forget the ad stuff and be sensible in the gym.This idiot will give himself a serious injury,its only a matter of time
Squats, deadlifts and bench press or else you’ll end up looking like this guy
I’m downloading your all video, it’s too good for a runner… #love from “INDIA”
Wow. It was intense but I loved every second of it. A great way to check if your body is still doing well when there is not much running going on. Thumbs up to you guys for putting it all together ����. Keep doing the good work.
On Day 1of starting this workout, do you recommend doing 3 sets of each exercise? Or starting with 1 set and building your way up to 3?
I did my first workout this morning, really struggle to get motivated with core work, I can’t say I enjoyed it but glad I did it, sweating buckets afterwards!
I’m going to incorporate your workouts on my non running days from now on, even the lunges which towards the end I found hard.
Thank you guys ����
Done, thank you I found the lunges a bit challenging, but thank you:) (included in my ST of my running plan for 10k
Nice tips in all of your video, i hope i can do it in right way, to increasing my runs ability.
Sorry for my english, i’m in practice. ��
Thanks guys. Did this yesterday and can barely walk today. Must be a good workout so.
Lots of great exercises Nick! If you had to pick your top three, which ones would you say?
Love the comment “we don’t want the knee to track forward….” as his knee is super forward…. No problem.
Excellent content. Clear, concise, without the empty blah blah you get on many other running channels
Thanks Anna and Andy! But are you two only doing half the work…?
Thanks, tough workout! Did it this morning, so I can still go out this afternoon for my #oneaday afternoon stroll in the sunshine with t’other half. Win win!:-)
The workout was A M A Z I N G but I’m wondering is it safe to do everyday or should I work on other muscle groups in my body with different workouts?
Nice routine but I got balance issues so using the box with weights might not be the right plan for me.
What BS. The whole point of strength training is to make your lower bones stronger when you are pounding it on the road, that requires muscle building and bone strength. Instead here they are pounding the legs right from the start!
The music at the beginning pours liquid mercury in your ears!
I bought instruction from Unflexal and I learned about workouts.
i tore my right acl (complete) and its been month since i started to jog again.. cant sprint for now..will it be safe to do the box hop?
Looks great, but no way to check for hard proof that Anna is certified (which I refuse to compromise on without exception) is an instant stopper. It’s no wonder that I had to give up running last year, because apparently there are no YouTube trainers out there who want to show their credentials.
I’ve done so many workouts with Anna. I feel like she’s my super fit big sister. Love it, thank you for being so inspiring!!
this looks great! going to add strength training to my running routine. can’t wait to try it!
This are really effective and help a lot, Thank you! Can you please do more workout routines for runners?!:))
How many exercises would you do in one session? How many sessions would you do each week? Would this be on the same day as the Plyometrics and core or are they are all included in this?
What I needed.is any ankle strength training? I’m coming back from a ankle injury was only a t2 8 months ago
I had a baby a couple of months ago so not got back to running just yet. But me and my husband have been doing your HIIT workouts every morning since lockdown. Please do more. We really enjoy them! x
We’re so exhausted.
But myself who is a grandad and my granddaughter who is 5 we thoroughly enjoyed it and thank you very much it was a total surprise we thought we was going to do a warm up for a run but it was a full workout and we’re so glad we finished it thank you again
Please warm-up and you take your video on prolonging the length motion before volleyball?
hey Anna I love you, your smile and your workouts. I am gonna try this.
I’ve decided that I need to add something other than just running and cardio, and this workout looks like a good starting place for me. How often would you recommend doing this workout per week? For reference, currently I like to run a marathon or two every year. Normally I like to run for an hour a day and more like 90 minutes twice a week. Thanks in advance for any response.
Hopefully you will see this, but is it a good or bad idea to add a mix of bike spinning onto my workouts strictly thinking along the lines of cardio? I do the core work, runs weights and even walks. Thanks and cheers from the east coast.
Great workout!
I remember discovering your videos 1 year ago when I decided to start running. I remember that I can’t barely run a minute. Now, I can run 40-60 minutes daily comfortably! I feel like I could do more, but I’m not pushing it yet. Your videos and guides really helped me a lot! Thank you and regards from the Philippines ����
What about some dumbbell rows? Dont forget to train your upper back.
I never liked that kettlebell swing move, so easy to hurt your back if you lose form.
Thanks for showing the entire workout. I like the Kettlebell rolls for the cool down. Keep up the great work!!
I have started these workouts. It was really tough for me in the beginning as I am novice to such exercises but now I can do half of what you said in the video and getting better day by day with my running. Thanks to You.
Some great moves there Nick…. A side issuebut what were the tunes used for the vid…?:)
Great channel, great content!
The knowledge you share is priceless and I have used it many times!
Great video! Thank you! Can you please share the brand and model of those cool workout shorts? Thank you.
If I were to do these on a run day, would I do them before or after my run?
This routine looks super cool and productive, gonna try. Thanks.
I am 73 years old and have been running for 40 years. I already do all these exercises but not regularly enough so it’s lovely to do them with you for company. You have motivated me. Thank you.
Hi Ben. Thanks for the videos and tips. I have just come back from a 8 week calf tear injury and have been incorporating your warm ups, strength exercises and cooldowns. I have never really taken any of that into consideration until now.
Thanks brother!
Remi, where are your shoes from???
Also great video!! So good for anyone at any athletic level.
I just got a GoPro Hero 5 ad a present. Can’t wait to take it out for a run and post the video on my channel. Any one uses a GoPro for their runs?
