Taking a 2 week break from running. But doing these “pogos” every day to keep the bounce in my legs.
The routine is:
3x30 sec double leg
4x20 sec single leg
I’m trying to land with my whole foot on the ground, not just bouncing on my toes.
Hop(p)ing that these along with lots of biking and swimming plus lifting heavy weights and no running is the right recipe to maintain fitness while giving my body the reset it’s asking for.
My goal at the beginning of this year was simply to be healthy enough to race an entire track season. I’ve only raced 3 times so far this year- definitely not a full season. But I’m not giving up yet! There’s still time… 🤞🏻
If you’re looking to add more elasticity in your legs without logging more miles, give these “pogos” a try. I also do a shortened version of this routine before all my runs to help produce that bounce in my stride.
