The most effective way to fix your muscle weaknesses and imbalances
13:44 Share

Most recurring running injuries are caused by some kind of muscle imbalance or weakness.

The imbalance or weakness in one part of your body causes another part to compensate by doing more work, usually resulting in some type of overuse injury.

Strength training is the best way to fix this…but not just any type of strength training. Specifically, you’ll want to focus on what’s called unilateral training. 

On this episode of the Run to the Top Podcast, I’m going to explore:

• What unilateral training is
• Why unilateral strength training is so important for runners, 
• Which exercises benefit runners the most, and (this is important)
• When not to use unilateral movements, because as good as they are, they do have limitations.
