If you want to increase your gains, consider training from a different
angle -- literally. "Running with your body on a slant forces your core
muscles and your lateral line -- the tough connective tissue called
fascia that runs along your sides -- to work harder than if you were
straight up and down," says David Jack, owner of ActivPrayer in Phoenix,
Arizona, and creator of 30 Days to Ripped.
A rock-solid midsection helps you react faster and stronger, and lets
your body absorb shock effectively. The result: better balance,
coordination, and flexibility. Plus, a strong core and lateral line
protects your spine against unwanted twists and
jerks during sports that
can cause injury. For an added bonus, push your hand into the wall to
get a grueling burn in your arms and shoulders. Ready to try it? Watch
the video below to see how to do the Lateral Wall Run with perfect form.
