Running Series Video 19: Airplanes

In this video, Athletic Therapist Michelle Meckling demonstrates the airplane: a progression from the single leg balance. The airplane exercise is essential for runners as it enhances balance, core stability, and hip mobility. This movement strengthens the posterior chain, including the glutes and lower back, which is crucial for maintaining proper running form. Improved balance and stability help prevent injuries and enhance overall running efficiency, contributing to better performance and endurance during runs.
