Lifting too little
Why It’s Bad: Muscles have a few jobs. One is to help absorb shock. If you lack muscle and strength, the impact of pounding the pavement goes straight to your joints. But many runners worry that weights will make them slow and bulky. The truth: The wrong exercises and a poor diet make you bulky; a proper training program will make you stronger and more flexible so you’ll run more efficiently.
The Fix: Full-body resistance training, including moves that refine your running mechanics.
Cheers and keep running!
