The strength training regime of world record holder Usain Bolt

The Olympic and World champ (and world record holder) gives us an inside look at his strength training regime

Strengthing exercises: The one component of training that runners know is important but is often neglected.

By incorporating strength exercises into one’s routine, runners can reduce their risk of injury which can lead to more consistent training.

Not sure which exercises to do? Here’s a peek into Jamaican Usain Bolt’s routine, as the sprinter focuses on his core, stability, and power.

Bolt’s exercises include: Bicycle crunches, dead lifts, planks, hurdling and box jumps, to name a few.

Though his strength routine might be on point, his diet could potentially use some tweaking. During the 2008 Olympics, Bolt was reported to have eaten 100 MacDonald’s chicken nuggets per day over the course of a week-and-a-half.
