6 Hill Workouts for Runners

Head for the hills with these 6 hill workouts for runners to gain strength, speed and confidence in your running!

I'm a fan of hill workouts, they are a low impact way to build cardiovascular fitness. So they are perfect for postpartum runners or runners looking to increase cardiovascular fitness without hitting the track. This month our round up is featuring six great hill workouts.

I've incorporated some lunge jumps and walking lunges into my workout. These will help build some power and leg strength. And even though you'll be running the hill repeats on pretty tired legs after the lunge jumps your body will really benefit from the hard workout.
