Review: Easy Running Plans: Total-Body Training for Speed, Strength, and Endurance – Jeff Gaudette

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.

Hit the ground running with this easy, total-body training guide.

Whether you’re a weekend runner looking to get in better shape or a road warrior aiming to tackle your first marathon, Easy Running Plans has something for you.

Throughout this book, you’ll learn the most effective stretching routines, strength workouts, and technique drills for runners―culminating in seven, easy-to-follow running plans. Whatever your goal may be, these plans will help you get there. And with the total-body approach, you’ll not only get the most out of your runs but acquire the skills necessary to keep injuries at bay.

Easy Running Plans contains the following:

Lace up―Choose the training schedule that best suits your needs, whether you’re looking to make steady gains or have your sights set on a 5k, 10k, half-marathon, or marathon.
Study up―Learn the fundamentals of proper running form, stride, injury-prevention, and recovery.

When you’re ready to elevate your running game, pick up a copy of this book and get moving.

If you are a beginner or have been running for years – this book is for you. I’m always looking for a book/magazine that will make running exciting to me, and I think Easy Running Plans by Jeff Gaudette is the answer to my wishes.

The book has four sections: Before You Lace Up, The Fundamentals, Putting in The Work, and Time to Train. The book also includes resources, references, and an index.

One of the things that stood out to me about this book was the workout section. It gives step by step instructions for the people that need that extra instruction to perform exercises the right way. I learned the hard way that you end up doing more damage to your body when you don’t have the correct posture.

Another very helpful thing in the book is the sample training plans. Instead of paying someone to give you a generic running training plan, this book will provide you with an efficient program that will help you reach your goals.

If you are serious about your fitness goals – grab a copy of this book.
