Strength training for runners – Single leg TRX row

Favourite running exercise #2

This is a Single leg TRX row – tougher than it looks!

AIM
Isometric hold for quads strength
Hip stability and trunk control to avoid loss of balance
Trunk strength for maintenance of running posture

SUITABLE FOR
This is a great exercise for all types of runners.
For trail/mountain runners, ensure the shin remains vertical for max quads.
For sprinters, add speed to the row.

KEY POINTS
For a downhill running focus, slow it down. It has longer hold times for quads with sustained trunk position.
Watch for the knee straightening late in the set – as quads fatigue, the knee loses position.
