You’ve been running for years, hoping that you’ll finally shed the pounds. A longtime commitment to running is something to take pride in. Unfortunately, when it comes to weight loss, your body may have adapted. This is why women often see significant weight loss when they initially start running, but notice that these results wane over time. The first time you ever ran a mile, you may have burned 100 calories. Now that number is likely significantly lower because your body has become a finely tuned running machine. If you want to lose weight, you need to change up your program and start cross training. Solution: Trade two to three days of running per week for cross training. The best cross-training workouts include: * Weight lifting and strength training. * Interval training on a bike. * Sports-specific training. Join a soccer, basketball or Ultimate Frisbee team!
