Make Running Fun
Run. Run a lot. That’s the answer I give to new runners when they ask me how to get better at running. When they ask how they’ll ever be able to run a marathon or an ultra when it kills them to run six miles now, the answer is that simple.
Everyone wants flatter abs, and a lot of people try to “spot reduce” by doing ab exercises to try to get them. The problem is, you aren’t going to lose fat from your midsection by doing 1,000 crunches. It’s just not going to happen. What I like to do instead is Core Exercises. You see, you need to achieve overall fat loss before you will see the results you want around your abs. In order to do this, you need more complete workouts.

In fact, it can cause a cascade of structural flaws that lead to back and joint pain, reduced flexibility, and compromised muscles, all of which limit your ability to burn fat and build strength. But you can head off all these problems by using the exercises at left to fix your form, soothe your pain, and get your curves moving in the right direction. <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
