10 Simple Exercises To Improve Your Running

[@runningchannel]

What training exercises would you like us to do?

[@hardworkanddedication0907]

Something that targets the back please

[@NatoonKids]

Thanks, Manni and Mo for this video. I really would like some foot strengthening exercises

[@DrGruffLes]

Exercise and stretches to cover Glutes and ITB and knees. I don't think i use my glutes properly when running and i get a sciatica like hip/gute pain and knee ache probably due to tightness. Anything to help sort that would be epic! :D Thanks for all the help and tips! :D

[@steveh8758]

Mobility work out

[@JoseFPVNavarro]

Bulgarian split squats literally saved my running journey!

[@ianaugustus5648]

I've seen people doing some of these exercises but I've never done them myself. Having Manni explain how they're done properly has now given me the confidence to try them for myself. Thank you. You've inspired me to give it a go.

[@runningchannel]

Really glad to hear that Ian! Let us know how you get on with them 😊

[@EpicErty]

They never responded…

[@kitschofield5307]

That’s a great, bite sized session. Looking forward to giving it a go and to any future installments. Thanks guys!

[@truepenny2514]

This was JUST enough. Great explanation! gonna try this -

[@Chrisblottphoto]

Love the energy here. I watch way to many KZbin fitness videos probably but this is great and looking forward to now going through some of your other videos. 🙏🏻

[@Matt_Kraczon]

It might have been nice for Manny to explain what the exercises were targeting and how that correlates to improving your running form. As a personal request, exercises to address a tight IT band that causes me hip pain/ bursitis.

[@julieburt1549]

These are a great set of exercises to do at home, post run. I love that its quick but comprehensive. I will definitely add this routine in on busy days when I want to do some strength but don't have a lot of time. Thanks!

[@kalieland6730]

These are great! Can’t wait to implement them in between my runs.

[@samanthawain932]

Where would we be without the Running Channel? Will look forward to trying the new exercises from this. Other ones I've tried have had positive results. Keep it up 😊

[@tariqhawa267]

This is perfect, was looking for something I can do when I am travelling.

[@ds37]

Stellar work lads, I'll definitely implement these exercises into my weekly plan. I've been suffering from loads of injuries since my late 20's into my now mid 30's and years of football practice as a winger. I'm trying to strengthen my muscles so that I won't be going through these as much as I've been these past years. Cheers from Switzerland fellas and keep up the good work!

[@DenzelKuvido]

Thanks so much for the training I really liked it ❤

[@sile8389]

Love these with 10 pound weights for each ankle.❤❤❤❤

[@JimmysGarden]

Nice informative video. Would you ever think about doing a "work along" exercise video? Keep up the good videos 👍🏃‍♂️

[@runningchannel]

Thanks for the great suggestion Jimmy! We'll see what we can do 😊

[@zabettalkshealth1073]

Please yes. Work alongs are so nice in the mix too

Great set of exercises, thank you. I also added them to my out-of-town list of exercises I can do in the hotel room or hotel gym!

[@runningchannel]

Great to hear! 😊 Always handy to have some "on the go" exercises in your back pocket

[@janettrigwell8851]

Will have a go of them tonight.

[@nrjonesy]

Definitely need to up my game on strength training so this was perfect.. interested to understand what the Heidens is helping develop? Does it help improve muscles that are working for stability? Reminded me of speed skating..!!

[@rgh622]

Neil, I think stability and fast twitch muscle fibers. It's a plyometric exercise as well.

Need some advice please Had a back injury many years ago and killed the nerve from my back to my right foot Am 49 years old male with good fitness level Manage to complete a run/walk 10k yesterday. My problem is the left side of my right calf muscle is no longer there only the right side due to dead nerve This makes it impossible for me to go up on my toes right foot I can manage it with both feet on the ground but singular “on right leg “ nothing What can i do please to get around this “ disability” Loving running and improving all the time Just struggle abit with this right foot/ calf The working right side of my calf is normal and taking most of the load the left should be sharing!

You can do it! Have you got a training plan?

[@munarong]

@@runningchannel Yes, the last Sunday I tested myself pushed through to reached 7k on my usual route, I have a month to train before the race in December, so my plan will be train more and avoid unnecessary injury before the race, because this would be my first 10k race ever. Thanks for the response, you guys rocks! 👍

[@MNP208]

Im going to start this routine. As a post menopausal woman, a lot of the current evidence points to needing to lift HEAVY weights and try not to do a lot of Zone 2 training. I just don’t know how I’m going to continue long runs by training this way.

[@ferryhudana9013]

[@ketanmamtora4693]

[@jaspalchsmpionchampion8534]

Thanks sir

[@ivanism007]

should we do these exercise everyday? if not, how many times we should do per week? Thanks

[@isabelleg9118]

Most strength exercises are done two or three times a week. The muscles need time to build back up during the rest periods.

[@AllGolfMedia]

Brilliant😅

[@ivivek_1309]

Very good video👍

[@holgerrode7014]

I am in my late 50s, I have 3 workouts a week (run or cycle). How often should I do these exercises, once a week?. I am planning to run an alpine 1/2 marathon in the summer in 9 months.

[@ahmedelsherbiny1052]

great content 💯

[@vmac38]

I just started trying to get back into running. I've avoided it, due to knee, hip and lower back pain from arthritis. I also sit quite a bit over the past 5 years, due to my current job. This has done nothing but increase the discomfort I feel daily and I noticed it more, the last couple of days I got out to walk/run. I figured finding some exercises to strengthen those muscles used to run, would also help with some of that discomfort I feel day to day.

[@bobmob1837]

Question about the bulgarian squat: Mo’s knee passes his toes when he squats on that leg - is that good? When we so a normal squat it is not advised, right?

[@JJBpilot]

That's old school. If it's pain free, rock on! And see kneesovertoesguy Ben will change your life!!!

[@Mascha_Eleonora]

it took me like 20 min. and I am slightly out of breath (should not have had that last coffee, before doing this). But it felt great. I should def do this more often

[@anthonyb7418]

Odd question but what would you record this under on a Garmin? The strength one seems to be aimed at weight lifting would it be HiiT work out?

[@lunathea7711]

Probably late response, but you can always add it as a customized workout. Use your watch click "my workout" + Build in Garmin connect + strength training + add title or note (exp. 10 exercises 10 rep for run etc.) Then you can edit the steps, can delete which ever or add or change the step type. ..what I like to do is I click "add round" then it'll automatically will give me choices of how many sets and you can always hold and press the steps and move them in the box...took ages for me to figure this out, Garmin not helpful...so any strength training I do now is being recorded as long as you press "do workout on your watch", ..I have forerunner ..I hope my long explanation is understandable 😂

[@lovetorun8517]

Over time would you recommend 2 sets of 10 reps of each exercise or increase the load and stick to the one set of 10 reps?

[@rgh622]

See 12:33

Thank you Everyone is missing on Core Power!!!!!!!! Yes we talk about the Core Exercise BUT not how to use it when running!!!!!!!!!!! When you don't use your Core power, you are just SWINGING your arms, hips and legs in the air!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! In Kickboxing, all the punches and Knee Kicks are powered by Core muscles, so much power added by core!!!! In running we have to harness the core power!!!!! I used to concentrate on each induvial movement of my arms, hips and legs, now ,I don't, I just concentrate on my Core movement, your core synchronize the upper and lower body movement. I use my core power to run and not my legs , you swing your legs and arms, they are powered by Cores. Imagine a spring Rod, try to fold and let go!!! The ends are your legs and arms, middle where all the power is , is the core!!!

[@yourfitdesiuncle]

From my experience a squat should always be done bellow parallel. Also calf raises should be done with a straight leg and with the knee bent slightly so you can hit both of the calf muscles. Love the video.

[@tiffanybrantley23]

Although below parallel is considered most optimal, not everyone has the range of motion and/or flexibility to reach that level. Improving flexibility and ROM is possible and most definitely should be worked on, but sometimes the construction of the hip socket and/or pelvic position will still prevent deep squatting. Squat as deep as you can while maintaining skeletal integrity!

[@yourfitdesiuncle]

No doubt, working on flexibility is first and foremost. Thanks for the content.

[@runningchannel]

Have you spoken to a medical professional? Have you previously injured your Achilles?

[@MSchout-x2g]

@@runningchannel I have talked to a physical therapist about it, but she doesn't think it is serious because it is not hindering me from running or giving me pain. It just surprises me when I stand on my tip toes to reach for something high and my tendon pops. Would the heel raise exercise strengthen it or hurt it, and should I not use the weights? Also, I have not injured my Achilles before.

Guys I appreciate the channel and the good message it sends out but get a strength coach to write the programming next time. No need for 3 squatting patterns and no hip dominant movements should be balancing these out. Plyos should come before your strength work also.
