This week we continuing to see more and more clients that have recently increased their running due to the impacts of COVID-19.
Tim has some more great tips for all runners, whether you’re just starting, or experienced.
Todays hot tips:
• Progressively overload and seek help! •
🏃🏽 Start with shorter total times of high intensity workload.
If you don’t normally run, but want to start jogging, begin with walking first and gradually increase the pace… Don’t be afraid to walk!
Remember the 10% rule.
Gradually increase the length and intensity of your runs by a total of 10% each week. We strongly recommend keeping a running log. Things to include in the log include how frequently you’re running, distance travelled, time taken to complete, how you felt and the weather conditions.
🏃♀️ If you’re having any pain, discomfort or niggling little injuries, seek help!
Don’t hesitate to book an appointment with us. It so much better to get things seen to early. Attempting 'run through an injury’, or hoping 'it will just go away' will increase risk of a chronic injury.
We are all experienced runners and love helping runners! We’ll be more than happy to work together to get you back on your 👣
