Strength Training
- Many runners do not incorporate weight training into their workouts, but because a strong upper body helps keep a strong knee drive, which in turn leads to a lengthened stride, runners who weight train are both stronger and faster. A sound weight-training program promotes stability and reduces the risk of injury.
- Players utilize resistance bands, free-weights, medicine balls, and physio balls to strengthen muscles, joints and connective tissues.
- The exercises are biomechanically specific to running and sprinting.
