A 20-minute core workout for runners with Olympian Louise Hazel, with a dynamic warm-up, planks and bird dogs.

Olympian and Slay Athletic founder Louise Hazel shares the ab routine that keeps her core stable and strong for running. After a dynamic warm-up with rotational exercises, she moves into a circuit with beast plank, bird dogs and heel taps, plus a vaulter's ab exercise based on the track event. There are plenty of planks, so take breaks or shake out your wrists as needed.
