INTRODUCTIONStretching and Strengthening for Runners was created to provide you, the runner ortriathlete, with the basic tools to stay healthy and injury-free throughout your training.These tools include the most basic exercises to improve both your lower extremityflexibility and strength, as well as your abdominal (“core”) strength and stabilization.The stretching section includes all the essential stretches necessary for both runnersand triathletes alike. I’ve provided a variety of stretches that can be performed outdoors,immediately following your runs, or in the comfort of your home. Be sure to followthe tips below to obtain the greatest benefit from stretching:1. Be consistent: stretch on a daily basis.2. Stretch at the end of your workout.3. Use the proper techniques illustrated and described inthis brochure.4. Don’t overstretch. Stretching should be gentle, not painful.The strengthening section includes essential exercises for both the lower extremity andcore. Unlike stretching, the strengthening aspect should not be performed daily. Toensure maximum benefits to improve your strength, perform strengthening exercises2–3 times per week, unless otherwise instructed. You should not try to perform allof the exercises provided in one single session. For example:1.2.3.4.5.6.7.day 1day 2SquatsStep-back lungesLateral step-upsStatic lungesHamstring curls: one legStraight leg raisesCoreLeg pressSkate lungesForward step-upsLateral lungesHamstring curls: two legsSidelying straight leg raisesCorePerform 2–3 sets of 12–15 repetitions for each exercise. (Note: Upper extremityexercises are encouraged and also should be implemented into your program.)Stretch daily and maintain a consistent strength training regimen, and you’ll stay intop shape throughout your training and cross the finish line even stronger thanyou imagined.Michael ConlonP.T.
