Description:

If you’re looking for a training plan that combines treadmill and outdoor running, at a beginner level, this program is perfect for you. The workouts start by building a base (walking and running), then gradually increase in duration and intensity as the plan progresses. The strength training is all runner-specific and is geared towards preventing injury and improving the mechanics of your stride. Mobility workouts are designed to improve range of motion and flexibility, which also helps increase your power and protect your bones and joints. 

Equipment needed:

Treadmill, kettlebell (optional to use a dumbbell if you don’t have a kb), resistance bands mini (purchase HERE) , foam roller, mat, yoga block, and running shoes!
