5 Best Stability Exercises for Trail Runners
Apr 14, 2021As the weather starts to warm up and it feels more and more like spring the runners are getting out on the trails. Trail running is very tactile due to the uneven surfaces, inclines, declines and gravel, mud and other external factors that can challenge you mentally and physically. We work with hundreds of avid trail runners from competitive and recreational - regardless of your experience level, having stability in the right areas of your body will allow you to run diligently with a lower injury risk.
We've compiled our 5 Best Stability Exercises for Trail Runners. Check out the videos below:
3-Way Balance Toe Taps
