🎬 here’s a golden oldie from the archives 🏃🏻🏃♀️💪
TRAIL RUNNING CONDITIONING CIRCUIT
This time of year many of us are hitting the trails, uneven surfaces and wet, slippery conditions.
Although these type of exercises are usually used in ankle sprain rehab, we should think about using them to ? reduce the risk of injury and improve performance at this time of year.
Start with 2-3 x week, 30-90 secs per exercise depending on ability and current fitness.
Progress as able over 6-12 weeks.

“Looking back a decade, it’s worth asking: How many of the fundamental 2010s problems — the ones that launched Occupy and fueled Bernie in the first place — have been addressed by today’s Democrats?” jacobin.com/2024/08/online-l…
