    Fabulous. Wishing I had this level of instruction years ago when I first started.

    Great exercises. For those like me who's knees feel stressed with fixed movements, no matter how proper the form, try the stairmaster, placing only the balls of your feet on the steps and thrusting opposite leg high to knee is waist high. Killer total leg, ab and glute workout and cardio all at once.

    if I don't have access to a step or bench, can I do the step-ups from a kneeling position?

    • @TheRunExperience
      @TheRunExperience  7 років тому +2

      I wouldn't do step ups from kneeling often, as more pressure is put on the knee joints. But you can use a simple staircase and just step up 2 steps instead of 1.

    I'm an older runner and I have trouble with my balance doing step ups and split squats with dumb bells. I have done them without weights and I can tell they are good for me. Is it OK to substitute a leg press machine for step-ups? Can you suggest how I can cope with my balance problem and still do split squats with weights.? I'm betting I'm not the first runner you've coached to have these problems. Thanks for producing another great video!

      Hey there! I'd say yes use the leg press to maintain strength until you can find the balance for these movements. However, start practicing some balance work to increase proprioception. Try standing one leg and performing 10 leg swings (increasing slightly in size) with other leg. You can also try holding a weight moving it various directions while standing on one leg (try 30 seconds per leg and repeat 3X). Good luck!

      I know I’m years late but last year I had not run more than 2.5 miles in one day, I started training for xc and with about 20 miles a week I ran a 18:21 so I think you need to focus on speed not the distance. For reference I was a 6 foot 135 pound 14 year old.
