TOO MUCH TOO SOON

According to a new study in the journal Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, runners who change their exercise routines too quickly, or too often, su er a significantly higher risk of injury. Drastically changing your workout regime – by suddenly running longer distances, or upping the pace significantly – will quickly crank up your injury risk. So however hungry you are to progress, introduce progressions sustainably, or you’ll find yourself on a fast track to the physio.
