Water Power


Water Power

To rule the track, hit the pool.  Recent research from India found that two months of deep-water running (participants hoofed it for an hour, three times a week) significantly imporoved endurance on land.  “Water provides resistance, increasing the intensity of running says Patrick Milroy, M.D. author of Running Anatomy.  To do it, strap on a flotation belt or hold a foam noodle behind your back and head to the deep end: Jog, bringing your knees no higher than your hips and kicking your rear foot toward your butt.
