Injury prevention isn’t luck, it’s strategy.

Swipe through 👉

1️⃣ Load Management
Progress gradually. Your tissues adapt to what you consistently give them, not what you suddenly demand.

2️⃣ Strength Training
Strong muscles = resilient runners. Target calves, quads, glutes & hamstrings to improve efficiency and reduce overload.

3️⃣ Recovery
Sleep, nutrition, and rest days aren’t optional, they’re performance tools. Adaptation happens when you recover.

Consistency beats intensity every time.

Save this for your next training block 🔁
