I hear this almost every single day from runners all over the world: “I hate strength training.” I get it, I used to feel the same way many years ago. I thought running 30-40 miles a week was enough to keep me strong and fit. The cold hard truth is…it is not. Runners, more than just about anyone else, need to be doing consistent resistance training to build a stronger muscular system from head to toe. In this episode of the podcast, I explain why runners should be lifting heavy weights and how it will dramatically improve your running performance and your overall health and fitness.
The post 273. Why Runners Should Be Lifting Heavy Weights appeared first on Running Lean with Patrick McGilvray.
