Metronome Running Lesson

In today’s workout, I want you to use a metronome.

My favorite metronome app for this is here (https://appsto.re/us/9RM0y.i). This will just beep at you. Set it to 85-90 BPM. That beep corresponds to one leg.

If you would rather run to music, try using Spotify:

• Search “Running” on the mobile app.
• Scroll down to “Genres & Moods” and select “Running”
• Choose any playlist you want in there.
• It will ask you to start running to detect your tempo. Do this if you want to know what your normal cadence is.
• Then adjust the “Steps/Min” to something between 170-180 SPM!
• Have fun running to the beat!

Your workout: Run 3-5 miles with a metronome set to 170-180 SPM/BPM (steps/beats per minute)!

Metronomes are wonderful tools for dialing in an appropriate cadence. And this is a vital step to making running form stronger and more efficient. Typically we see folks with over-striding patterns, and adjusting cadence is a simple remedy to bring things into a more efficient and optimal place.
