Run
Warmup:
0:30 Hip Flexion Hold (Right Leg)
1:00 Jog
0:30 Hip Flexion Hold (Left Leg)
1:00 Jog
Workout:
30 min max distance run
• Stop every 5 minutes and alternate between 10 air squats and 10 leg swings.
Notes:
This is practice for a routine that you should absolutely start to incorporate into your long runs. The quick stop to shake things out in the hips is VITAL for keeping you fresh and interested.
This can be done with just about anything. I am a big fan of stopping and doing air squats (of course), leg swings, arm circles, trunk twists, pushups, ankle roll-outs, etc.
When performing this on your long run, I like to do this in roughly 10% intervals. This means if I’m running 15 miles, I would stop every 1.5 miles and perform the reps.
