Core Training for Runners (FREE Webinar Replay)

February 21, 2021 · by Garrett McLaughlin

The core is an important but often poorly targeted area. It’s not that runners are neglecting the core altogether because most know it’s value… it’s just that so many are going about it the wrong way which creates limited results.

Over the years, I have seen so much emphasis on strengthening the muscles of the core with traditional exercises. This is needed to a degree, but running requires stabilization more than anything else. Therefore, a specific approach must be executed to actually build the core in a way which translates to better running performance and injury reduction.

Recently, I held a FREE 60-minute webinar on the topic of core training for runners. It’s my hope that you use this content to better understand the key components of core training to positively impact your running in the months and years to come. I am confident it will change your thought process on how a simple and progressive stabilization routine will allow you to run on all cylinders.

In this FREE webinar replay, what you’ll learn is…

  • What is the core? (5:05)
  • Functional requirements of running at the core (9:57)
  • Important training principles (14:23)
  • Types of core training (20:27)
  • The best core exercises for runners (27:14)
  • Q&A (54:24)

I hope you enjoy this webinar! Comment below or contact me directly if you have any questions or comments regarding this content. And, if you want to implement the best strategies to improve your running, click here to learn more about the Healthy Running Program.
