Right now it’s just about introducing good habits and getting into a routine of exercising more. Keep the runs easy (in terms of pace and HR). I focus now on keeping my HR below 140 on my easy runs, whatever pace that might be. Any questions or problems let me know, we can always change the days of the session if need be.

The biggest mistake we can make with these recovery runs is running too fast. This will mean when our harder sessions come round we are still fatigued and not able to put enough effort in to make the necessary gains.
*reps/seconds on both sides
A really good home workout for the core and legs. If new to this, don’t worry about hitting the seconds or reps. Do what you can and slowly build up to the targets.
For example you might find you can only hold a plank for 20 seconds at first, which is fine. Don’t push too hard that you get injured. You’ll soon get strong and be able to add more seconds.
