WORKOUT
LUNGE WITH A BUM KICK
Area trained:
Front thigh, back thigh, bottom, hip flexors (the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes and psoas muscles)
Why do it?
Strength and explosive power are very important for long distance running. It will help with the continuous contraction of the muscles over a long period of time.
Technique:
• Stand with your right leg in front of your left
• Bend both knees to perform a lunge
• As you straighten your legs kick your left foot up towards your bottom • Aim to kick your bottom
• As you return your foot to the floor go straight back into a lunge
• Complete one set on the left before changing over to the right
Watch points:
Keep your upper body tall and look forward.
