Mobility and Strength for Runners Over 40: Pilates Reset Week Day 5

Subscribe to Watch

Feel stiff and weak in the same places? Niggles that keep coming back no matter how much you stretch? This Pilates class combines mobility and strength for runners, and it’s day 5 of Reset Week. We move your joints through their full range, then build strength right where you need it, so your body is both free to move and strong enough to control it.

Why mobility and strength for runners matters after 40

Mobility on its own gives you range. Strength on its own gives you power. But runners over 40 need both. From our 40s we naturally lose muscle, and joints that aren’t moved well get stiffer. That combination is where injuries creep in.

When you’re strong through your full range, your body can absorb the impact of every stride, hold good form when you’re tired and bounce back quicker from your runs.

What you’ll get from this session

Stronger glutes, hips and core. Better control through your range of movement. More resilience on the run. Confidence that your body can keep up with your training.

Grab your mat and let’s get strong and mobile.
