1) Short steep grass hills done with big rest. This is NOT an aerobic workout. Start small with your sessions and work up the number of reps over time.
Fast sprints
Cherry pickers (bounding)
Frog leaps
2) Hip flexibility exercises. There are many. Even hurdle step overs if you have access to them can be helpful. Again, start at a low volume and work up.
Frog leaps? Lord knows what I'd break trying to do those. Lol. Are you sure you realize the target audience here is over 50, and not twenty somethings? Lol.
I'm on the short side of the 60, and when I get out of bed in the morning I'm as stiff as a corpse...worse if I ran the day before. And I have to shuffle step when I run because nothing else feels good, and if get stupid and try to run like I was in my 20s, I invariably get injured. And being injured when you're getting up there in age ain't no fun as things heal at a much slower rate
But "frog leaps" for old folks....that's a good one. Lol.
