What should be my workout plan for a runners body?

hey guys,

In the last 2.5 years, I lost over 50 pounds. It was basically from lot of elliptical and running outside 7k. I love running so much, however, i’m at 160 right (5’8)now and I don’t need to lose anymore weight. Anyone got a good workout plan for someone that wants to have a runners type body. I lift weights, but getting built as Lebron James is not my style. David Beckham is my style. So, any tips or workout plans would be amazing
Thanks.

Chosen Answer:

Lift weights 2 days each week. Run at least 3 to 6 days.
You need to run a minimum of 3 days for 20 to 30 minutes to maintain your cardiovascular system.

If you are not trying to train for an event or sport then this is enough to keep your body in shape.
The amount of weight you lift will determine if you keep your muscles or get larger, so do a total body workout and do 3×10 and do not increase the amounts and you will not be getting larger.

In other words lift the amount of weight so that you can complete the last set each time you train and do not go up in weight.
