Question:
What is the best resistance training for legs of a long distance runner?
I am currently working on my speed. I want to know from a marathon runner, what weight training, involving the legs did you find most helpful with speed, without sacrificing your long runs? Are there specific calf exercises? Have you discovered which muscules are used the most during running? Do explosive moves give you more power throughout your stride?
