- Beginning Runner Tips ✨🏃🏼‍♀️

I. start slow, set a timer and run till it goes out. It's better to run for a time rather than distance at first so you can get used to it and not get discouraged

2. As a beginner it's okay if you have to stop and take breaks. It doesn't mean you've failed, it is your body telling you that you need to adjust to running

3. incorporate different forms of training:

examples:

- endurance training: long, slow paced jogs

- speed and plyometrics: sprints, jumps, hit training

- strength training and weight training for legs specifically

4. STRETCH: typically do dynamic stretches before any sort of running training (ex: high knees, butt kicks, walking lunges, leg swings.

Make sure to stretch/roll out after running as well! It makes such a huge difference on your recovery and running stamina
