Good exercise10+.

[teressa3246]

Yes, based on the training outline you will be stronger and therefore more prone to increasing your speed.

[teressa3246]

Hi tmajor7, Yes because you will be perform exercises in the running position. While most exercises have you seated at a workout machine.

[grambo22]

Why would you perform partial squats? Why wouldn't you perform full squats (bodyweight or weighted with a barbell) to strengthen the entire body for running and reduce the chance of injury?

Also what's the point of holding 5lbs dumbbells.

[teressa3246]

Hi Grambo22,

Thank you for your note.

The purpose is to perform exercises that mimics running. The added dumbbells are for the natural progression once you reach the next phase of strength training

Hi,I am a sprinter and track and field trainer,,I have to honest when I said that your ideas are good but the only problem that I found that this kind or work could only work as first satge ,I mean the intensite of this exercises are for beginers or recovery from injures but for this level are great ideas ,I did this exercise on my recoverie from an injure and they very good for that stage ,I would like to share my expieences with you !

[teressa3246]

Thanks, we would love to hear about your experience.

[teressa3246]

The exercises in this DVD will help those who run at any distance.

[teressa3246]

You would not need to perform all the exercises with weights. There are three phases, and in the initial phase you would not utilize weights. The exercises, are carried out through progressing to the next phase. Thank you for your interest in Running Research News and its products.

[teressa3246]

Hi,

We are happy, to learn that you are implementing these exercises, into your regular routine. Please keep us posted on your progress.

[GIOVANNIDOSANTOS]

what times at week i need do this? because how i can know how much do this exercise?, sorry for mi english.

[teressa3246]

Each of the workouts (Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3) should be performed two to three times a week for a period of three weeks. If you have never carried out strength training for running, you would begin Phase 1 with just body weight for resistance. Carrying out the exercises, with a low number of reps, gradually increasing reps per exercise per workout. Then begin adding additional resistance (starting with five-pound dumbbells and working upward in five-pound increments).

[runner747]

Great stuff!! Research tells us that exercises for running should be specific to the actual movements of running, and the outstanding DVD from which this clip is taken has 24 different, increasingly challenging, running-specific exercises. It gives athletes who run a huge boost with their strength training.

[teressa3246]

Thank you for your note runner747. Yes, the DVD does support the research. The exercises cover a wide range of running specific and injury prevention training.
