	<br>Running absolutely builds muscles in your lower body, especially in the glutes, hamstring, and quads, as long as you are engaging those muscles in new and challenging ways. The recipe for strength training requires equal parts nutrition, intensity, and recovery. Hitting the pavement for a nice and easy tempo run may clear out the cobwebs in your brain, but it’s not ideal for strength training. In fact, if you run the same speed on the same track for the same distance every day, you may actually lose muscle mass.

The same can be said for your body. For runners, carbohydrates and protein are key. Running burns up a lot of calories, so fueling your body with healthy carbs such as oatmeal, quinoa, and brown rice will replenish those lost energy reserves. For strength training, protein is equally important. If you want your muscles to have enough fuel to repair after a brutal workout, it’s important that you boost your protein intake. Protein shakes are a great way to infuse a high amount of protein post-run, but whole foods are even better. Foods like lean chicken, eggs, and ~~[https://git.learnzone.com.cn/mariowalpole8 Prime Boosts]~~ fish are great options. Chocolate milk is also hailed as a great post-workout drink because it provides a good ratio of carbs to protein per serving. 4. Hit The Gym.

	<br>Running ~~obviously~~ builds your ~~endurance.

For example,~~ a ~~2015 research review~~, ~~published in the journal Exercise~~ and ~~Sport Sciences Reviews, found~~ that ~~aerobic exercise can increase skeletal muscle and whole muscle size, particularly~~ in ~~sedentary individuals~~. ~~Those study authors suggest aerobic exercise as a mechanism~~ to ~~stave off the muscle loss that comes with aging~~.<br><br><br><br>~~Likewise~~, a 2017 study published in the International Journal of Exercise Science found that running induced muscle growth in the vastus lateralis muscle (one of the quadricep muscles) in 12 recreationally active university students. ~~The participants completed about 25 sessions of high~~-~~intensity running (four sets of four minutes of running at 90 to 95 percent of heart rate max~~, ~~with three minutes of active~~ rest ~~in between)~~ for 10 ~~weeks~~. ~~This~~ muscle ~~growth likely stems from~~ the ~~way running loads the body-more specifically~~, ~~the~~ lower body. ~~"With running, the majority~~ of ~~the~~ muscle ~~work~~ or ~~contraction is eccentric,~~ which is the ~~hardest load on the body~~,~~" Joe McConkey~~, a ~~Boston~~-~~based exercise physiologist~~ and ~~USATF-certified~~ running ~~coach tells Runner’s World~~. ~~Eccentric contractions occur when~~ a ~~muscle lengthens under load or tension~~. ~~For example~~, ~~during the lowering phase of~~ a ~~squat~~, ~~the quadriceps (front of thigh)~~ muscles ~~eccentrically contract~~. ~~When running~~, "the ~~act of landing~~, ~~where you’re absorbing two~~ to ~~four times~~ your body ~~weight, is done eccentrically~~.<br> <br><br><br>~~That’s~~ the ~~major stimulus~~ for ~~muscle growth during running~~, ~~particularly~~ for ~~beginners~~,~~" McConkey says~~. ~~Recent research shows that aerobic exercise may have more~~ of ~~an effect on maintaining muscle mass~~, ~~rather than building it~~. ~~That’s especially true if~~ you ~~stick~~ to a ~~similar routine~~, ~~without adding intensity~~. ~~That said, new runners, compared~~ to ~~those who have been running for~~ a ~~while~~, are ~~more likely to see the most noticeable changes in muscle mass~~ and [~~http~~://~~kpro~~.~~shanghaiopen~~.~~org~~.cn~~:8005~~/~~madiepeck74319~~ Prime Boosts ~~Supplement~~] ~~strength just by virtue~~ of ~~running more often or for longer for~~ the ~~first time (or~~ the ~~first time in a long time). Also~~, ~~even though runners who consistently do steady-state runs~~ won’t build ~~more muscle mass, their~~ muscles ~~can start to look more defined as body composition changes due~~ to ~~increasing mileage, adds McConkey. If you’ve been running~~ a ~~long time, you’ve also probably already built strength in the slow-twitch muscle fibers that primarily power your long distance~~ running, ~~Janet Hamilton~~, C.S.C.~~S., owner of Running Strong, tells Runner’s World~~.<br><br><br><br>~~All runners can [https://www~~.~~gov~~.~~uk/search/all?keywords=develop develop] more strength-in terms of power~~ and ~~muscle ability-and likely more muscle by tapping into their fast-twitch muscle fibers~~, ~~which~~ have ~~less endurance than slow~~-~~twitch fibers but exert more force~~. ~~To recruit more of those fast~~-~~twitch fibers, you need~~ to ~~do something that requires greater power output~~. ~~Think about the massive leg muscles~~ of a ~~sprinter: "Any high-powered~~, ~~short bout of exercise-~~so ~~long as it is progressive in nature (i~~.~~e. harder~~, ~~faster, higher than what you have already adapted to)-will increase~~ the ~~size~~ of ~~fast-twitch fibers~~, and ~~thus increase muscle mass~~,~~" says McConkey~~. ~~In summary~~, ~~to promote muscle growth~~, ~~you need a bigger challenge on your muscles and a variety of challenges~~, ~~otherwise running will offer more maintenance than progression.

To recruit more of those fast-twitch fibers, you need to do something that requires greater power output. Think about the massive leg muscles of a sprinter: "Any high-powered, short bout of exercise-so long as it is progressive in nature (i.e. harder, faster, higher than what you have already adapted to)-will increase the size of fast-twitch fibers, and thus increase muscle mass," says McConkey. In summary, to promote muscle growth, you need a bigger challenge on your muscles and a variety of challenges, otherwise running will offer more maintenance than progression. To support your muscle-building efforts, consider the general exercise recommendations for each week: at least three cardio workouts, two strength workouts, and at least one flexibility workout. Incorporating these all into your routine will not only support your muscles, but make you a more well-rounded athlete.<br>

We spoke with Esther Goldsmith, an exercise physiologist at Orecco, about how different styles of running can target different muscle groups. Strength training vs cardio: Which is better during menopause? What muscles does running use? "We think of running as using the muscles of the legs, with the majority of focus on the big muscle groups: the glutes, hamstrings, quadriceps, calfs and hip muscles," explains Goldsmith. But will running regularly actually build all of those muscles? The answer depends on your general fitness levels. If you go from very sedentary, and not running at all, to running three times a week then yes, you could see some of those muscles start to build. "Usually when we talk about building muscle, we are referring to something called ‘hypertrophy’, which is an increase in muscle mass," says Goldsmith. If you go from being very sedentary to being a regular runner, then you might start to see this in some muscles. But running is much more likely to strengthen those muscles, rather than build them. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Can you build muscle by running? Whether you want to build or strengthen muscles, short interval sessions - like sprints - or short uphill running intervals will definitely help. "These types of run will provide extra stimulus for muscle development, recruit the muscles in a different way, and increase the ‘mechanical work’ compared with steady state or running on the flat," explains Goldsmith. You can also try to target different muscles when running, but there are some limits to this. "Uphill running will target the glutes and hamstring more, whereas downhill running is more focused on quads, so using that information you can target specific muscle groups. However, to really work on a particular muscle group it may be more beneficial to use some strength exercises as it is much harder to really isolate a muscle group while running" says Goldsmith. Compound exercises, like squats and deadlifts, are a good place to start, as they target multiple muscle groups in the legs. Does your diet affect the rate at which you build muscle? "Yes it does!" says Goldsmith. "Muscle growth is dependent on two primary things. Firstly, protein intake. Your muscles are made of amino acids and proteins, so it makes sense that you need sufficient protein in your diet to increase muscle size and strength. "As well as looking at total intake, it is important to have protein at equal amounts throughout the day to keep your muscles in a positive protein balance - a bit like a car with a very very small engine, you need to keep topping it up! Secondly, you need to get the right overall calorie intake. "If you are not fueling enough for the energy that you are expending throughout the day, then your body won’t have any energy to build muscle," says Goldsmith. According to the International Society of Sports Nutrition, you should aim to consume 1.4g to 2.0g per kg of bodyweight if you’re trying to build muscle. What’s a good plan to follow if you’re trying to build muscle through running? Strength training with weights is the best way to build muscle (here are the benefits of strength training, and the best adjustable dumbbells for weight lifting at home). But if you're determined to build muscle through running, then focus on high-intensity workouts. "Studies have shown an increase in muscle size after running training that focused on high-intensity intervals, two or three times per week" explains Goldsmith. Goldsmith advises seeking the help of a coach first though, who can give you a tailored plan, as we’re all different, and what works for one person may not work for the next. "It’s also imperative that you don’t do two interval sessions back-to-back, as this will not allow for sufficient recovery or time to actually build that muscle! Looking for more running inspiration?
