Are you a runner struggling with lower body durability?

⠀⠀

Our NEW Run Strong Program is your key to building long term running durability. Learn more about The Run Strong Program HERE.


The program is a 12-week running strength & resistance program combined with a mileage prescription plan for a 5k, 10k, half marathon, or full marathon.

I partnered with Jason Fitzgerald of Strength Running to create the most comprehensive running performance, strength, and durability program out there. This will help you to take the guesswork out of preparing for your running goals.

The key to running durability is that you strengthen the 6 load bearing zones of the lower body as you see in these exercises.

 
Zone 1 - Plantar Fascia/achilles/calf:
 
 
 
Zone 2 - Exercise Hamstrings:
 
 
 
Zone 3 - Abductors:
 
 
 
 Zone 4 - Hip Flexors:
 
Zone 5 - Exercise 5 Plantar Quad Tendons
 

 

 Zone 6 - IT Band
