  • The Best Bodyweight Exercises for Runners

    The Best Bodyweight Exercises for Runners
    Dec 16 2024

    Join Dr Kate Baldwin, Nick Baldwin and Joe Skipper as they take a deep dive into two of the best - yet perhaps relatively unknown - bodyweight exercises for runners, the Nordic hamstring curl and the Copenhagen side plank. Kate explains why these two exercises can be so beneficial for both performance and injury prevention for runners and triathletes, whilst Nick and Joe share their experience of integrating them within their strength training program.


    If you’re keen to try these exercises out for yourself, we’ve created a special Podcast Bodyweight Exercise Challenge on the VALĒRE app. Here you can start to safely and sensibly familiarise yourself with these two exercises, giving you the confidence to incorporate them into your strength training routine. Plus if you’re interested in seeing how professional triathlete Joe Skipper gets on with the Nordic hamstring curls, jump onto our Instagram page (@valereendurance)!
