Why Running Feels Hard + Exactly What To Strengthen To Fix It (Upper Body Edition)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Ep 126: This week, we're continuing the conversation about building a body that feels strong and efficient while running—but this time we're focusing on the upper body.
I break down how your breathing, core stability, thoracic mobility, and postural endurance all contribute to your running mechanics, plus exercises you can use in the gym to improve each one.
We cover:
- How your diaphragm contributes to both breathing and core stability
- Why rib and pelvic positioning can affect your ability to breathe efficiently
- How your core stabilizes your trunk while your arms and legs move
- Why runners need thoracic rotation and mobility
- How to build the postural endurance needed to maintain good positioning as you fatigue
- Exercises like 90/90 breathing, dead bugs, bird dogs, Pallof presses, carries, face pulls, and more
