Running Drills (for all runners)

 Good video from my coach . Saving it for my future reference ! .




πŸ”…- What are they?

3 basic skipping drills — A skip, B skip, C skip

πŸ”…- Who should do them?

anyone who wants to develop better form, strength, and running economy

πŸ”…- How does it work?

repeatedly driving the knee up high in a skipping motion (and with the B skip - pawing back back on the foot strike) develops neuromuscular connections and

strength in the hip flexors, hamstrings, glutes, lower leg and foot

πŸ”…When do you do them?

i recommend 2x week after workouts as a strength supplement to the speed session, building towards 3 sets of 15-30secs (can be more)

πŸ”…

With anything, these take time to master. They should be done with focused purpose. In the beginning, emphasis should be placed on just learning the motions, not intensity or a great range of motion. Over time with consistency you’ll develop more speed, fatigue resistance, and better form
