It’s that time again!
I’ve linked up with my favorite runner bloggers to bring you some awesome workouts! Last month’s theme At Home Workouts For Runners was super successful so we are bringing you more goodness with some two a day workout for runners!
This month’s theme is Two A Day Workouts For Runners. Although pretty rare now, I used to have the time to pull off two a day workouts and it was no easy feat. Contrary to popular belief–you CAN workout twice in a day!
It doesn’t have to be crazy long or even super exhausting but honestly if you have a 15 minute pocket in the morning and another in the evening why not take that time to take care of your body? The benefits are the same as a full gym session!
My take on the two a day workout can be done at home and doesn’t take very long to complete. Sometimes you might want to work different muscles and you have a busy work week ahead. For example, I could take a spin class in the morning then go to the gym at night and do a zumba workout. Double the calorie burn and still not working the same muscles!
Two a day workouts may be seen to some as too much but sometimes it might be exactly what you need to get past a plateau or to shake things up a bit with your fitness routine!
Today I have some awesome TWO A DAY Workouts designed by some amazing running bloggers just for you! Be sure to check out the posts below for some amazing inspiration!

I’m loving this round-up!!!
This is great and so sharing with my running friends now!! 🙂
Thanks for the post – lots of great information here!
I’m probably going to make two a days part of my workout routine when I start marathon training so this will be very useful!
Great post I’m def on a two a day mode! Thanks for sharing
I love your workout, Nellie!! It’s such a good one (okay two) for runners. 🙂
Love this round up! Your workout looks so fun and like it would get my legs quaking!
LOVE! I’m pretty sure I can figure out a way to fit a 15-minute session in. Thanks so much for the round-up!
I think two-a-day workouts are a good idea! It’s a great way to split up a workout or make sure you get in both cardio and strength!
I love these! I’ll definitely have to tweak them because running in the am is not feasible for me. I already have to get up at 5 am just to be ready in time for work and to take my two girls to two different schools. So there’s no time to shower. But I can definitely do a 15 minute workout of squats, crunches, jumping jacks, etc. Awesome!
