For today's Training Tip, our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson, introduces a great exercise to tone our triceps (back of the arms): tricep dips. In this video, Carrie offers three different varieties of dips to try. If you are a beginner, start on the floor. If you are familiar with tricep dips, either elevating your body off the floor or using a chair are perfect variations. Dips can be hard on the shoulders, so if you have any shoulder issues, do not attempt these. Otherwise, make sure to push your shoulders back and have your arms directly behind you with the tops of your hands right under your butt.

For today's Training Tip, our National Fitness Director, Olympian Carrie Tollefson, introduces one of her favorite tools that you may have right in your own home: stairs.

In this video, Carrie shares three exercises that are great for cardio and quickly increasing your heart rate, plus strengthening your leg muscles.

What do you do if you're training for a marathon and on the day you are signed up to do a 17-mile trail race, a freak April blizzard cancels your plans? Well, if you're this month's Most Inspiring Member, you run anyway, of course!
On May 5, Eau Claire Moms on the Run member Sarah Kleven will run the Eau Claire Marathon. As part of her training, she signed up for the 2019 Zumbro Endurance Run, a trail race that takes place in southeastern Minnesota's bluff country featuring high bluffs, deep river valleys and rugged terrain. Unfortunately, race organizers ended up cancelling the race because of a spring blizzard that wreaked havoc in the area. Sarah was devastated. "I checked my email at 3 in the morning and may have shed some tears," Sarah recalls. "I've wanted to run Zumbro for a couple years. It's been on my radar ever since I watched some of my MOTR friends do it." |
