Every runner should be strengthening their calf mu

Every runner should be strengthening their calf muscles.
These are my go to exercises I’m doing a few times a week to strengthen and support my ankles. Save these to do this week.
1. Single leg calf raise with straight leg
2. Single leg calf raise with bent knee
3. Single leg shoulder bridge with heel lifted
Ideally aiming for 30 each side of each movement and building up to holding a weight.
Single leg strengthening is important as running is a single leg movement, you push off one foot not two. Meaning it’s more beneficial to strengthen with single leg movements.
When we run there is 3-5 times your body weight going down through your ankle and foot as you land and push off. As you can imagine if we can strengthen the ankles we will have a better chance at avoiding injury and improving running form.
These dont need to be done before a run I just forget otherwise, anytime is great. Ideally a few times a week.

Pilates prenatal breathing to help engage the core

Pilates prenatal breathing to help engage the core 🤍
1. Inhale through the nose and expand ribcage, relax the pelvic floor.
2. Exhale out through your mouth and lift through the pelvic floor and engage slightly through the abdominal wall. Think about lifting the baby up and in towards you, like your giving the baby a little hug.
It is so important to be able to engage and release the pelvic floor, both are as important as each other to prepare for birth. Keeping some deep core strength will help support your back and posture throughout pregnancy and help with your postpartum recovery.
New prenatal core 13 minutes on the online studio is a great workout to put this into practise.
