241. The Best Cross-Training Exercises for Runners
A lot of runners believe that when it comes to exercise, running is more than enough.
They love running, do it 6-7 days a week, and don’t feel the need to do anything else.
Then there are those runners who believe in the power of cross-training.
Some believe in it so hard that they find themselves doing some form of cross-training 6-7 days a week in addition to running!
Wherever you fall on this spectrum, there are some forms of cross-training that provide more benefits to you as a runner.
In this episode, I explain what cross-training is, what it isn’t, and offer suggestions for the best cross-training exercises for runners.
