I'm aware of the importance of having a strong core e.g. strong abdominis, glutes, obliques etc. and these can be benefitted by circuit training and core exercises. So here are the questions I need answering.. (bearing in mind that my main focus is on having a solid cross country / 5k season) How often shall I use circuit training?? What exercises should I be particularly focussing on?? How does a strong core benefit runners? |

I do circuits once a week, I go to a class so there's someone to shout at me  We do weights, squats, planks, a bit of cardio, basically we cover the whole body. It *feels* very good for me, it's very hard work. But if you want a crap core, stay as you are I know people who do bootcamp classes in local parks, have you got something like that locally? |
