    It's really cool that you added something fun and relatively accessible, as a lot of people give up on running because they find it not very fun and demanding.

    There's an old strongman exercise that's basically the first two put together! You lift the forefoot then lower it and go into a calf raise. I've been doing it for a while and my ankles feel great. Just do it steadily and controlled instead of dropping into the motion.

    What I have done is that I go to the gym to do my lifting routine and to warm up I take off my shoes, get on the treadmill and jog very slowly for 3-10 minutes, around 4 to 5 mph depending what level you are (no experience 3 minutes 4mph and so on). My feet now look like bodybuilders! Very strong. And yes I don’t get injured. The other benefit of this I’ve noticed is your gate improves, cadence increases naturally to 173-180 steps per minute and you can feel your back working because your posture is straight and not sloppy.

I feel very relaxed as workout vert easy but i get great satisfaction!! I like your favourite exercise, will have to include! Its a very slow gradual progress, but i see and feel improvement in my form, running and recovery each time.

The first two were already in my exercise routine, yet the remaining 4 were new to me. I appreciate your efforts sharing the knowledge you have, about training smart and giving great points and tips and a great insight of things related to running, using studies and research facts as well as your own experience as an example, to which most of the runners can relate, and providing solutions for struggles that one may face. I've changed and shifted some things in my running and exercise routine since I started to watch your videos. And it made a difference, made me look at running a bit different than before, in a positive progressive way. Thank you again. Let's train smart🌱🍀☘

      @@balakumar9 hi! I think everyone can adjust exercises basing on their individual needs and preferences. As for me, I do these whenever I'm barefeet and they pop into my head. Other times I incorporate them after or during my resistance training sessions, sometimes, with shorter intervals, I do them as part of my dynamic stretch before running. There are days I go without doing them at all. This is what works for me. I hope you explore and find your optimal version. And, congratulations on starting running! ☘🍀🌱😊

    Good exercises and good points on the consistency. The exercise of rising onto the ball of your foot is great also when you're waiting for a bus or in line. Of course you likely have shoes. Barefoot shoes would be better even. And you can increase difficulty doing it one foot at a time without support of you need more challenge. Speaking of barefoot i recommend walking like that when possible to activate and strengthen foot muscles.

    I struggled with a foot injury for years, with pain that never fully went away. At some point a physio randomly noticed that I had much less control over my left big toe than I did on the right. I started doing towel pulling exercises, and indeed on the right I could add several weight plates and move the towel just fine, whereas left could barely move the empty towel at all. After a few months of that I had my first pain free run in years. Definitely was the missing piece of the puzzle for me at that point. I _try_ to still regularly do them now, but they're also crazy boring and take a lot of time, so yeah it's really hard to stay consistent with something like that.

    I do some foot strenghening at work - handling cold stuff with thin gloves can make your hands unfomfortably cold, but usually it's done by just standing on a spot, pretty easy to keep working while doing something like single leg calf raises and all kinds of small movements - about 100 reps gives good burn that warms your body and then hands. Needs to be done to exhaustion, otherwise it does not warm that much.. Probably the only way I find motivation to do stuff like that, get warm hands, something to do to make time pass bit quicker when work gets bit boring and it's somewhat beneficial in the long term.

    An excellent video, Goran!
    A variation of the one legged balance exercise is what I call 'sock clock' - balance foot points to 12, the free foot picks up a sock and places it at 11, returns it to start position (say, 3), then 10, 9 etc with the distance from balance foot adding extra difficulty. 8 and 7 can cause some startling contortions!

    It is true that these are boring but you can do them while doing something else, so they can be done consistently. As an example, I try to balance myself on one foot when I am waiting for water to boil when making a coffee, or when I am brushing my teeth, etc. When you are meeting with a friend a they are late, it’s great time to do some calf raises or foot taps. We can add more to the list but you get the point.
