Description
Parker Farabee is a trail runner, physiotherapist, exercise physiologist and coach from Portland, Oregon. In this episode we talk about strength training for trail runners. Why is strength training so important, why do we need strength as trail runners? Of course we're not bodybuilders, so how much strenght do we need? What type of strength training do we need in order to get stronger, but not bulkier? We will give some practical examples for the application of strength training in your normal training routine, how you should do it, how often and for how long.
