I think this is a great exercise for all runners to do.
It should help improve your stability, range of motion and power and strength.
End result run faster with less pain and injury :0]
why not give it a go and see if it can help you!
I asked Doctor Steve how many reps and sets should one start at and build up to?
As long as you hold good form and can still nail a good 360
degree core breath without your shoulders raising up and down...work up
to a set of 12 reps, then 8 reps, then 4 reps each side (descending
pyramid). Once you can do that...you need to add more weight or
challenging variations. Start with a goal of 5 good ones and go from
there.
