Sports enthusiasts who have a Men's Health magazine subscription can find out how to slash their running time with some great tips.
You can stabilise your stride by embarking on some hamstring curls, running coach Ralph Hydes told Men's Health magazine.
Do three lots of 15 reps of the curls to make your muscles stronger, ensuring you have the "correct stride length", he said.
Glutes are key to running, so you should invest time in your thigh muscles, Great Britain running coach Nick Anderson told Men's Health magazine.
He advised doing this by completing one-legged squats - around ten reps, holding for ten seconds on the last one.
"Your arm speed is intrinsically linked to your leg speed," Anderson told the publication.
"So use free weights to create better driving strength in your upper body and perfect your running form," the expert advised.
With the London Marathon just over a month away, on April 17th, you might want to get your legs in gear and start improving your running style.
