Running truly is an art form - you've got to master the rhythm, the form, and the pace to be in a position to get "in the zone" and make it a reasonable work out. Not everyone is in great running shape - some people can't even run a mile. Here are some great running exercises for runners of all levels.
Interval Sprints
It has been shown thru studies that interval coaching maintains the high level of power that's mandatory for consuming fat and weight reduction. Try this exercise: sprint as quick as you can for 15 seconds, and then walk for the subsequent 45 seconds for 30 minutes. As you get more in shape, you'll be ready to run for 30 seconds and then walk for 45 seconds. If this is not enough of a session for you, run 30 seconds and walk 30 seconds. You may increase the quantity of time you spend on this.
Interval Jogging
A common theme is interval workouts. To work yourself up to running for an hour straight, you've got to begin with the fundamentals.
- Week 1: 4 days every week, run for a minute and then walk for a minute for 30 minutes. It looks easy at the start but as you continue your session you will feel the burn.
- Week 2: 4 days a week, run for 2 minutes and then walk for 2 minutes for 35 minutes.
- Week 3: 4 days a week, run for 2 minutes and then walk for 1 minute for 30 minutes.
- Week 4: 4 days every week, run for 2 minutes and then walk for 1 minute for 40 minutes.
- Week 5: 4 days each week, run for 3 minutes and then walk for 1 minute for 45 minutes.
- Week 6: 4 days every week, run for 5 minutes and then walk for 1 minute for 45 minutes.
This is merely a 6 week plan, but it's always possible to extend it as you get more in "runner's shape."
Resistance Running
Except for long-distance running for hours on end, resistance running is a great way to get into great shape. Try running stadiums - where you run up the steps of a stadium and walk down them in a zig-zag fashion. You can also try running with light ankle weights attached to your ankles, or try jogging in the sand which will actually tone your lower body. Nonetheless if you're planning on running in the sand, you've got to make sure that your shoes will support your ankles well.
