Cross training will also help to prevent injury and burnout. Here are a few tips to get you ready for the big day:
Step class: BSC offers a variety of step classes. Build leg strength by moving up and down on the step platform. Ask a Personal Trainer about basic exercises you can perform on the step.

Abductor and adductor machines: Strengthen your inner and outer thighs on these machines. To prevent soreness, go light the day before a run.

Plyometric exercises: These explosive power moves will enhance your performance during a race when you need that extra push, and will aid recovery. Several of our Group Exercise classes, including Sports Circuit and Sports Conditioning, feature plyometrics. You can also ask a Personal Trainer about adding plyometric moves into your workout.
Whether you're a seasoned runner or this is your first race, Boston Sports Clubs can really make a difference in your performance. Our exciting Group Exercise classes and Personal Trainers will give you the motivation, confidence and skills needed to succeed on race day.
