RUN FASTER, LONGER. EVEN IF YOU'RE "NOT A RUNNER"
From couch to marathon this proven & effective 16-week endurance training program will help you reach your goals, without accumulating "junk miles"
The Traditional Training Model is Broken
The days of getting up early, strapping on your running shoes, and slogging out mile after mile in an attempt to get 'fit' and run faster is no longer necessary.
This is not your traditional running program. If you're looking for a program that just has you running more & more miles each week with no focus on improving your overall strength & fitness then move along...
DOMINATE YOUR NEXT RACE OR EVENT WITHOUT GIVING UP YOUR STRENGTH GAINS
Your endurance training program should consist of high QUALITY workouts that can get you to your goals without leaving you overtrained and nursing an injury.
If you've dealt with plantar fasciitis, patellar issues, calf strains, iliotibial band syndrome, low back, pain, or any number of a hundred different common running injuries than you probably need to evaluate your training.
Pain is not normal
Regardless of the program you are training with you should be focusing on 4 Key Areas:
- Mechanics – If you are unable to maintain solid & efficient running mechanics then you are bound to end up injured.
- Intensity – If your goal is to get faster and you're following a training program that is dominated by long slow runs than you need to reevaluate that plan.
- Volume – Sure, you are going to have to spend some time running in order to get better & faster, but your program should be designed to offer you a minimal effective dose to help you gain the maximum amount of results.
- Maintaining you current strength – Long, slow, endurance training is great at making you skinny and useless, if your training program is dominated by long aerobic efforts you may be doing yourself more harm than good..
