Manage episode 431778925 series 2394684
Most runners have heard of plyometrics, but are they using these exercises effectively to prevent injury and boost performance?
Dr. Gaby Go is a Doctorate of Physical Therapy who ran Division 1 Track and Field for the University of Maryland, College Park, and who qualified for the Boston Marathon in her debut marathon.
Today, Gaby’s sharing a lot of knowledge around plyometrics for runners with us.
In this episode, Gaby and I talk about:
- The basics of plyos: what they are, who they're for, and what they do
- Using plyometrics for tendon health, especially the Achilles
- How plyometrics help trail runners with uneven terrain
- Proper form and volume in plyometric exercises
- Coaching plyometrics virtually vs in-person
- What most people get wrong about plyos
- Appropriate exercises for runners just starting with plyos
- Favorite plyos for endurance runners
This episode will give you a nudge to pair some plyos with your next strength session!
