Summary
Lindsey Bomgren from Nourish Move Love is a super fit Minnesota trainer and creator of amazing and free YouTube strength videos. While they are not marketed as "runners' workouts" they are the exact same exercises that Coach Claire prescribes to athletes because they are classic strength moves that build better runners. But Lindsey just does them better.
Lindsey is a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor who has been featured in Women's Health Magazine, The Bump, Yahoo Finance, Cosmopolitan, Popsugar, Brit + Co, Well + Good and more.
Lindsey is tough, but also cheerful and encouraging, often interjecting with her signature catch phrase "holy bananas" when things get hard.
Coach Claire has been using Lindsey's videos over the past few month and the difference in her strength is remarkable!
Oh, and don't forget to stay tuned at the end of the episode where we've got a major announcement about the future of the Run to the Top!
