EVERYONE- Go to the ULTRA STRONG category of my app and choose the TOTAL BODY ULTRA STRENGTH AND INJURY PREVENTION WORKOUT.
Feel free to do a light warm-up before starting the exercises, especially if you train first thing in the morning. You can warm-up on a bike, elliptical, or with an easy jog. Warm-up for 5-10 minutes.
The focus of today is to do exercises that target your whole body while also showing you where you might be weak or tight at this point in your training. To avoid injury, it's important to always be working on strength in some capacity. Even the most basic exercises will make a difference.
In an ultra, your body is not only demanding you to wrong; you must be enduring both physically and mentally. As our bodies fatigue in the later stages of a race, ALL our weaknesses are exposed- achy low back, tight ITbands, sore quads, etc. So it's important to train for EVERY detail of ultra running. The goal is to get you to the finish line STRONG so today we are going to focus on Strength.
Enjoy the change up in the schedule; give your best with what you got; and remember, even if you can't perform every exercise or feel like you're struggling, every time you show up- you're gonna get stronger and better.
Let's Go!
