As a runner, you always move diagonally – and that's exactly the muscle we'll be training today. Ten minutes of core training to follow along with, no equipment needed, just you and your mat.

35 seconds of work, ten seconds of rest. For each exercise, I'll show you an easier and a more challenging variation. This way, you can find your version and increase the intensity week by week.


``` This is what you'll train:

→ Diagonal abdominal muscles for stable rotation while running
→ Lateral core muscles (Side Plank)
→ Back extensors for an upright running posture
→ Stability in the plank for a stable upper body
