👉 Strides. Most runners skip them — but they’re one of the simplest ways to build speed, coordination, and efficiency without hard workouts. Here’s why strides work so well: 1️⃣ Neuromuscular activation: They train your brain and muscles to communicate faster, improving turnover and running economy. 2️⃣ Form reinforcement: Short bursts (15–25 sec) at ~90–95% effort help you rehearse good mechanics under light fatigue. 3️⃣ Smooth transition: Doing strides after easy runs preps your legs for fast

Strides are short controlled bursts of pace at 80-90% of max speed! 🚀 I tend to use them at the end of an easy run or in a warm up before a session or race! ✅ They are used by elites regularly and have a tonne of benefits An example strides “session” would be 6 x 50-100m at 80-90% of max sprint speed with 1 minute rests ⚡️ Benefits include: - improved running economy - improved running efficiency - improved running speed Let me know if you give them a go 😁 | Harry Lancaster - Running
