Runner's Strength Foundation

An 8-week strength foundation block for runners. Builds glute capacity, hip-stabiliser strength, and trunk anti-extension that support running form and pelvic control as fatigue compounds. Designed to fit alongside a running plan, not replace it — two short strength sessions per week, kept at moderate intensity so running stays the priority. A foundational block to anchor any 5K-to-marathon program.
