. But strengthening the pelvic floor muscles, whether you have a noticeable weakness or not, is beneficial to runners of any age because you’ll tap into a newfound power source.
“Most people have under-toned transverse abdominis, which is the deepest layer of abs under your six-pack muscles and obliques,” says, retired professional runner. “It ties the top and bottom half of the body together.” Understandably, these muscles are hard to isolate. This is an issue for runners, in particular, because you can suffer from what Lucas likes to call “slinky dog effect.
Women also need stronger cores to combat valgus collapse because they have a more severe “Q angle”—the angle between the outside of the hips and knees, due to the natural spread of their hips for child birth, Lucas says. Instead of the tension in your core helping you land softly, that internal weakness causes more of a crash-landing every time you stride, further contributing to lower-body niggles and injuries.
