Strength with Balls

   Let’s face it, we runners are not known for our great upper body strength. Most of us would probably lose an arm wrestling match with Pee-Wee Herman. If this is a source of pride for you, by all means continue with your current routine.

   If however, you want to improve your upper body strength, but feel you’re crunched for time I’m here with a suggestion. The exercise below is, I feel, one of the best and most timesaving moves there is. If you are currently doing no strength training, I believe by just adding this every other day you will notice significant improvements in your strength and running.
  
   As always, consult your doctor before starting any routine. Do three or four sets of ten. If you can’t do ten, try less. As the weeks progress add more reps. After a month or so challenge Pee-Wee to a rematch.
