Get Bigger, Faster, and Stronger with this Half Marathon Light Leg Workout

Today’s…

workout of the day, we are going to be doing a Half Marathon Light Leg Workout. This is a great workout that will work on strength and cardio, to help build lean muscle. This is also a great workout if you are training for a half marathon. This will help work on your cardiovascular endurance along with strength training.

Cardio Round 1…

For today’s cardio, we are going to be doing a 60 minute run which we will have an interval where you are running at your goal pace. For me, my goal pace is 7:15, which is why my range is 7:09 – 7:29. You can either do this workout on a treadmill or outside, totally up to you. This is the primary focus of our workout today so make it count. 

Circuit…

There will be only one circuit today, which will target lower body. This is a 5 exercise circuit, which we will do 4 sets of. At the end of each round, take a 30 – 60 second break before moving on to the next round.

Stretch

To end the workout, stretch out those muscles to prevent soreness and injury. Recovery is the most important part after working out, so make sure to take care of your body and it will take care of you. Stretch it out for a total of 10 – 15 minutes depending on how much time you have.
