Tip of the day

Core Exercise: Supine Hand Stand, Single-Leg Raise

From a supine position (belly button facing upward), balancing on the hands with fully extended arms and a stationary foot, lift the opposite leg up to near full forward extension. Again, it's important to maintain postural integrity by keeping the hips in line with the plane of the body.~from Runners World website

Tip of the day

Core Exercise: Prone Hand Stand Single-Leg Raise

Begin from a push-up balancing on the hands with fully extended arms and a stationary foot; Lift the opposite leg upward, keeping the toes pointing downward and the knee mostly straight; Continue the smooth, quick upward motion of the leg to near full rear extension. Return the leg back to the starting position and repeat 5-10 times on each leg. It's important to keep the body aligned in the same horizontal plane from the shoulder to the ankle of the stationary leg. Repeat 5-10 times on each leg. (It's easy to raise the hips too high on this exercise.)~ from Running Times website
