GO PRO!
Whether new to running or a veteran, we all experience some niggles, aches and pains along the way. It’s normal! But it’s what we do with our niggles that will determine the outcome. If you ignore them, they will often turn into injuries. So, as the kids are going back to school, we’ve designed a new-term study programme to help you steer clear of injuries.
If it gets too easy, add additional weight or increase the sets and repetitions gradually.
► Warm-up
Go for a 10-minute run outside or run up and down the stairs for five minutes.
► Sets & reps
Perform three sets of 15 repetitions. Focus on making each rep really high quality.
► Cooldown
Perform a full-body stretch, starting at your neck and working your way down to your legs. Hold each stretch for at least 30 seconds to ensure you improve your long-term flexibility.

If it gets too easy, add additional weight or increase the sets and repetitions gradually.
