Do Runner/Walkers Need Strength Training?

Every move we make we put stress on our joints. Whether walking, running, jumping and even just sitting we put tremendous stress on the joints of our bodies. We are often asked if runners/walkers still need to do any strength training, especially leg work. Jason Venckus NASM CPT, PES, CES, FNS and HC will explain why we as runners need strength training to prevent injury, go farther and last longer. He will also explain just what you need to do.
