I’ve written about this topic numerous times….so you tell me…why do runners need a strong core? How will strengthening this area help you during a race or long run?

Does “Tiny Tuesday” and crunch day give you added incentive to make this a good day all around? Remember, Tiny Tuesday means watching your portion sizes and even though we’re past the 21 days of our “No Junk Food Challenge” it’s a great idea to incorporate this into your routine today too.

Core work, small portion sizes, and no junk food make for a REALLY good day! Can you commit to a healthy Tuesday?

Day 23 exercises:

• 100 Crunches
