Do you run too much? Have a think. Look at your training program and how many hours are you out there training a week, trying to train for your 5, 10, 21km or full marathon? And wouldn't it be nice if you could do it in a whole lot less time so that it doesn't over dominate and take over your entire life when you're trying to just train out for an event to feel good about yourself?
You make a goal and start a training program, say 12 weeks or something. The first three weeks you feel good. And then the next six to eight, you feel tired all the time and you're hanging out for that tapering.
That six to eight week where you're feeling tired, that's when you're most likely to get injured and broken down because you're doing this repetitive same thing all the time. And if you are tired your muscles aren't getting time to recover.
You're spending hours wearing out your body, physically and mentally, and you're not getting the time to recover.
So would you like a better way to train?
There's science now behind the fact that you can train more effectively, more efficiently, by running just three times a week. Running just three times a week, training five times a week, and you're working in more effective, more efficient run programs when you are out there running, running at the pace that you want to run your event at, and eliminating all those slow just hours and time on legs.
The Easy runs are about putting time on legs to build strength. So we replace that with some specific strength training and we build your heart, your muscles, your lungs, through a real mix of your hit training, your strength training, your mobility training, so that your body's stronger, moving freely, processing oxygen more efficiently and it's getting the recovery. It's getting strong enough to go the distance, and you're mentally getting strong enough to be able to hang it out there.
