Glute & Hamstring Leg Strength Workout for Marathon Runners / GYM EDITION

In this video, let me show you a comprehensive, short, but incredibly effective leg strength circuit for runners focusing on glute and hamstrings that's designed for the gym.

What's the point of being surrounded by all the gym toys and NOT using them?

Same thing applies to having HUGE, amazing running goals, and NOT equally leveling up your strength exercises.

The two go hand in hand.
That doesn't mean your strength exercises have to become impossibly hard.

They can even be basic like the deadlift in this circuit.

They just need to be runner specific and effective!
You're strength workouts have to reflect your big running aspirations.

Otherwise, you end up with a frustrating repeat cycle of running injuries that never quite seem to clear up and plague you from one race to the next...just lurking in the background.

(am I getting warm?)

Big runner goals mean BIG weights.
But big weights don't have to mean hours in the gym.
or standing there awkwardly not knowing to do.

Let me give you a thorough but succinct intro on how to deadlift and how to use a landmine.

Let's hop in!

Circuit:
3 sets each // light/medium + Heavy weights (ideally a barbell)

Bulgarian Split Squat with Weight Overhead
3 x 8 X light/medium weight

Barbell Deadlift
3x 8X heavy @ RPE of 8

Land Mine Overhead Squat
3 x 8-10 Reps X barbell + plates as needed for RPE @ 8
