Performance Strength
Move beyond basic prehab or maintenance work and lift weights like the pros.
Heavier weight means more return on your sweat-investment. These lifts drastically improve running economy by increasing rate of force development, increasing leg stiffness, decreasing ground contact time, and reducing injury risk.

Core & Hips ProgramMost elite runners are doing core & hip work. It's been a long-time staple, and for good reason.
Core training involves strengthening structures of the hips, pelvis, and spine. The act of running itself also does a great job of strengthening these structures, however the low impact, high repetition nature of these core exercises build that durability with less impact. So they're a great supplement! It can also be argued that a strong and fatigue-resistant core will improve running economy by decreasing pelvic drop & trunk shifts while helping to support overall leg stiffness. Another positive of this kind of work is that once you adapt to it, you can perform this up to 3-5x per week without a big impact on your overall fatigue. |

Marathon Strength ProgramThe 2 drivers of fatigue in a marathon distance are 1) nutrition/energy depletion, and 2) muscle damage.
This program aims to delay the rate of muscle damage by building strength-endurance in the muscles heavily used over 26.2 miles. |

Plyometrics ProgramRunning is a lot of work for the body. Luckily, we have tendons that do a lot of the work for us. In fact, upwards of ~70% of our pace can be attributed to the passive energy that our tendons provide.
Passive energy means that our body is not having to actively provide energy via ATP synthesis > muscle contraction. Passive energy is free energy! It's part of the reason humans are so naturally inclined to running - we're mechanically efficient on two legs. Plyometrics training is important for 2 main reasons: 1) it helps strengthen these tendons, improving their resistance to injury 2) it teaches us ideal motor patterns for using these tendons effectively This plyo program is meant to build springiness in these tendons so that you can maximize your passive energy system. |
