Coach Ron's Friday Fit Tip

4/4/2014

0 Comments

 
Want to get stronger, faster and more efficient...hit the hills!
Hills
Description:  Hill training is important to a runner.  It is a form of strength training while on the run.  Short hills (50-100 meters long) tend to be steeper and long hills (200+ meters) more gradual.  Hill workouts can be done on the roads, on grass or on trails.
Benefits:    -Strengthen quadriceps and other large muscle groups.
        -Improve form.
        -Raise the fatigue threshold.
        -Improve anaerobic fitness.
        -Build mental toughness and confidence.
        -Strengthen the back, abdominal and leg muscles.
See you on the roads
