Have you ever used a theraband before? Let me tell you a little bit about them - because I think they are just awesome!
7 inches of elastic band - looking a lot like a big colored rubberband… They come in different colors and different strengths.
Pick a color you can control and get ready for a solid workout! From working on muscle activation to post-run strength training, a band is hands-down a good investment.

One of the exercises I wrote about, and you can find the post here, is glute activation. Since working with Dr. Shane McCann, I’ve been a fanatic about getting stronger glutes. You’ll want to read the entire post because I really went deep into the exact drills/exercises I do that has made a tremendous impact on my running.
