This three-month strength program is curated specifically for the endurance athlete to fortify the body for the demands of your sport. It includes two strength sessions a week with bi-weekly progressions and one mobility/recovery session per week.
In my years of experience working with endurance athletes like runners, triathletes and cyclists, I have discovered patterns of dysfunction that can only be addressed through targeted strength and neuromuscular re-training. A generic strength routine just won't cut it, and lifting heavy weights doesn't mean it will translate to improving and enhancing your sport.
Every video in this program is created by Dr. Caitlin Alexander. The first month will work on developing good movement patterns and utilizing muscles you've probably never thought about. The second month will progress into more strength-based movements and then we put that strength into sport-specific coordinated movements in month three.
At $150 for the entire 12-week program, this is broken down into just $50/month. With 3 sessions a week, this is just a little over $4 per session!
