Enhanced Running Efficiency

Targeted strength training for key muscle groups like your glutes, hamstrings, and core improves running form and efficiency. This means you can cover more distance with less effort, conserving energy for those crucial moments in your run.

Injury Prevention

Strengthening the muscles that support your running motion, particularly the stabilizers, helps protect against common running injuries such as shin splints, IT band syndrome, and runner’s knee. This proactive approach keeps you consistently on the road and progressing toward your goals.

Increase Speed & Power

Plyometric exercises activate and enhance your fast-twitch muscle fibers, essential for explosive movements. This translates into quicker sprints, faster hill climbs, and an overall increase in your running speed, helping you surge ahead in races and training.

Improve Endurance

By integrating strength training, you build muscle endurance that supports longer runs. Stronger muscles can sustain effort over extended periods, reducing fatigue and allowing you to maintain a steady pace even during the most challenging runs.

Stronger, More Balanced Body & Mind

A well-rounded strength and plyometric routine addresses physical imbalances, creating a more balanced and efficient running stride while also building mental toughness. As you push through intense workouts, you develop the resilience needed to tackle difficult runs with confidence and determination, ultimately enhancing both your athletic performance and overall running efficiency.

FAQs

What if I mis a day?

Don't worry about it. We all miss a day here and there. DO NOT make it up. More is not better. Stick to the program and just continue on as planned.

Are the workouts sent out daily?

The workouts are published every Sunday for the upcoming week! This gives our clients the flexibility of moving sessions around for that week while staying on track for that current cycle!

Do I have to wait to start at the beginning of a cycle?

No you don't. It’s best to jump in when you sign up! We understand everyone may not start at the beginning of a cycle, however, our programs are all periodized and based on progression so you will benefit from starting as soon as you join.

What if I don't like the program?

If you end up not liking the program or simply want to try something else, you can cancel at any time. You aren't locked into a contract, it's simply month to month billing.

How long are the workouts?

The workouts should take you 40-50 minutes depending on how quickly you move through them.
