On today's Run to the Top Podcast.

How I like to create the workouts just so they're super efficient.

They usually are full body, although if you'd rather do a total lower body focused one,

that's also very doable

or add things like sprints in these workouts

because, like I said, it makes it super time efficient.

Hi, this is Stephanie Atwood with Run to the Top.

Are you, like so many of us trying to figure out how to add strength training to your running regimen.

Today's episode features Krista Stryker who shares her strengthening techniques as the 12-minute

athlete. Good, quick, high intensity interval training is Krista specialty and most of our

workouts are done outdoors. I love the combination of minimal time and an outdoor environment. Runners Connect also has strength training resources and a free four-part video course.

You'll learn which strength training exercises are going to be most effective to reduce injuries and improve

performance so you don't waste your time. You need to understand how to balance the

additional strength work with your current mileage so you don't over train.

course at runners connect dot net slash strong. This four-part video course will

help you learn how to add strength training to your running
