best workout exercises to prevent run inury

I love this time of the year! The days are getting a little longer and starting to get a little warmer; the grass is a little greener and the sky a little bluer. Of course you know what comes with spring time – RUNNING SEASON! Of course there is another way I can tell that running season is upon us: more and more injured runners start to trickle in to my physical therapy clinic. Whether you’re just getting into running or have done it for years, this time of the year usually brings an increased risk for injury just because people typically don’t run that much during the winter. Anytime you start or resume and activity after a long period of relative inactivity you run the risk of developing an overuse injury. But did you know that there are some things you can do right now that will actually mitigate your risk of injury and keep you running pain-free this season?! Today on Tone-and-Tighten.com I wanted to share with you 6 of the best exercises you can do to train and strengthen key running muscles. Get ready to lace up … cuz here we go!

Looking to take your leg definition to a whole new level?

When it comes to increasing tone and definition in large muscle groups, you have to shake up your training methods. Slow, controlled, strength-training moves to train one type of muscle fiber; explosive, plyometric, agility moves to train another. Working on both is key to taking your results to the next level, and they can be an excellent way to launch off any plateau you may find yourself on!

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite Plyo-Strength Workouts for your legs. This workout can easily be done anywhere without any equipment; however your results can certainly be enhanced if you have a pair of dumbbells handy!

Hope you enjoy… …
