Clients Running More Now? Give Them This Program!

Posted by Sherri on April 9, 2020 at 7:51 am

We are experiencing a global pandemic and with our fitness clubs closed and most of our clients are confined to their homes with very little options for exercise. Many of our clients are not easily detoured from their commitment to their workouts and are recognizing that they still need to do something physical to maintain their physical fitness, stress release, mental health and maintain the strength of their immune system. Hopefully many of your clients have have opted for virtual indoor workouts with you and your staff, while others have probably taken to running outdoors.

We are positioned to experience a massive running boom that would rival the 1970’s Forest Gump surge that had everyone sporting their sneakers and pounding the pavement. Spring is here, summer is on the way and running is a wonderful way to get some fresh air, vitamin D and relieve some stress.

Your Clients Can Run Faster!

Have clients who want to train to be faster runners? Here are some tips and tricks that I use with my clients (and for my own training).

First, if you want to get fast, you have to train fast.

Makes sense right? The good news is though, not every workout needs to be a hard, speed workout. Make sure, when building your client’s workout schedule…to incorporate a faster run/walk just 1-2 times per week. Your clients will start to notice that they are running (or walking) faster in no time! The first goal is for clients to improve their leg turnover speed and get their muscles accustomed to contracting more quickly.
