A running course specifically for women
This six week programme, created by our Clinical Advisor + Women’s Health Physiotherapist – Michelle Lyons is designed to give you THE VERY BEST FOUNDATION for your new or already established running habit – literally from the ground up! It’s perfect for new runners, injured runners, return runners or runners wanting to increase leg power.
Delivered virtually, this programme is UNIQUE because it’s specifically designed with a woman’s body in mind, especially in terms of Pelvic Health because at the end of the day, women are DIFFERENT to men! All exercise/rehab programming will be made bespoke.
Foot and Ankle Mobility
Over the course of 6 weeks, I will cover all the BIG ROCKS of running in comfort and with ease. I’ll start by covering foot and ankle mobility and strength. I will work with you in a group or individual on building resilience in your calves and shins, improving your knees and hips, gain mobility in your spine and pelvis and show you how to put it all together.
I’m not guaranteeing that you’ll end up beating Mo Farrah, but I will be giving you the tools to help you ‘control your controllables’ when it comes to the most common injuries women who run have to deal with.
Help with your Couch to 5K
I love this course as I have been a runner all my life and never had these essential strengthening skills offered to me. Now I have them to offer YOU. This course offers you knowledge and skills to strengthen your body. I love the fact that it is for anyone who would like to get back to running after having children or having had an injury or even wanting to start Couch to 5K. This course works perfectly along side C25K and will offer you a better starting block to prevent injury.
Improve Walking Strength
Finally, you may be unable to run BUT want to improve your walking strength – wanting to avoid going over on your ankle or getting calf strain when you increase your miles too quickly. So this will suit you too.
Equipment
For this course you will need a long theraband, a hard yoga ball and a yoga block. These are available as add-ons when you book the course.
