Training Programs
While running is a very natural activity it is wise to take a proactive approach to the elimination of health risks and injury prevention. It is important to consult your doctor prior to undertaking a training program.
In addition your joints such as ankles, knees and hips will perform much more effectively and will be less likely to develop injuries if some measures are undertaken before the commencement of a training program. These measures include:
- Choose a pair of running shoes that suit your running style.
- Embark upon an exercise regime to improve core strength and the strength of the muscles that support your joints.
