Sick of getting into the gym and making a little bit of progress before feeling that dreaded lower back pain, forcing you to either rest or go lighter? Or maybe you have been resting after a recent flare up, and yet again as you were playing with the kids or doing a simple task you’re back on the couch... resting... yet again!

When you sit down for long periods of time do you feel discomfort in your neck, shoulder and or back? Sitting still for 6, 8 plus hours a day isn’t great, and I can almost guarantee that either your neck, shoulders or back doesn’t feel great by the end.

Running is a high-impact exercise that places a lot of stress on the body, particularly on the muscles and joints of the legs and feet. As such, it's important for runners to not only develop the necessary cardiovascular endurance to sustain their activity, but also to build up muscular strength and stability in order to prevent injuries and improve performance.
