Fit Friday with Nichole! 

The temps have fallen. The snow is threatening. My husband is working non-stop (we own a boat business and  October means winterization season which  means no husband). Must mean it is time to start working on off-season strength training and looking forward to marathon training.

 

 

 

For many runners the sun means that we are outdoors, focusing on running splits, paces, and distances. When the cold weather comes in it is important to rehab and strengthen muscles that have been over used and all of those supporting muscles.

This is just one of my strength training for runners workouts. There is not one workout that hits all those muscles just right, but there are definitely muscles that are important to hit. So let’s hit ’em this weekend!
