Here is a fast Tutorial on the workout moves for a strong core and to challenge your balance. having a strong core is important for long running. It helps you maintain proper running form which impacts your speed. plus improper form can lead to injuries!
Having a strong core also helps you keep pumping your arms – that also can impact your speed (pace) and how far you can run.
And luckily this ab workout is less than 5 minutes long, so there are no excuses to skip it! Let’s go!

How to Do 5 Ab exercises – Standing No Equipment
Calf raise with shoulder press :
Stand with feet shoulder width apart and arms at shoulder level bent at the elbow. keep your core in tight, standing tall as you go up on your toes into a calf raise. At the same time – shoot your arms straight up. Then, lower back down – feet flat on the floor, arms at 90 degrees in line with shoulders.
2. Standing Side crunch – L:
Standing tall, abs in – place left hand behind head (right hand can be at your side or also behind your head). put most of your weight on your right leg. crunch sideways with your upper body and lift your left leg at the same time to meet near the middle. return to starting position and repeat.
3. Standing Side crunch – R:
Standing tall, abs in – place right hand behind head (left hand can be at your side or also behind your head). put most of your weight on your left leg. crunch sideways with your upper body and lift your right leg at the same time to meet near the middle. return to starting position and repeat.
4. Y T I Standing Arms:
Abs in, hinge forward at the waist keeping a straight back. lift your arms up to a “Y” – then back to center. lift your arms to a “T” – then back to starting position. lift your arms back and down similar to an “I” – then back to center. Repeat for 30 seconds.
This is usually a floor exercise, but we’re adapting it to do while standing. This targets your upper back and shoulders – 2 areas that can be tight for runners.
It’s important to have good range of motion and pay attention if you’re tightening up your shoulders and neck while running. So pay attention to how this feels as you do it and any differences between the left and right side of your body.
5. forward Lunge – alternating legs :
Start with feet about shoulder width apart, hands on hips. step forward with the left foot into a lunge and push back to your starting position. Then, step forward with the right foot, lunging on this side before returning to your starting position. Repeat, alternating sides for 30 seconds.
