In today's episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the hybrid training framework I use with my athletes, and in my own routine, to balance strength and running without feeling stretched thin, overtrained, or constantly sore.

You’ll learn how to train smarter by shifting from an “all-or-nothing, 50/50” mindset to a seasonal, spectrum-based approach that actually works with your body’s recovery capacity. I break down:

✨ Training Seasons: Why rotating through base, build, peak, and recovery seasons keeps your progress moving forward without frying your nervous system.

⚖️ Intensity Distribution: The simple rule for pairing hard days with easy days so your strength work enhances your running, rather than competes with it.

🏋️‍♀️ Lifting Around Running: How to structure lifts throughout the week depending on your mileage, workouts, and goals — and when to pull back.

🚫 Avoiding Competing Adaptations: The #1 mistake most hybrid athletes make and what to do instead so you can lift heavy, run strong, and still feel good.

If you’ve ever tried to “do it all” and ended up tired, tight, or plateaued — this episode gives you the structure you’ve been missing.
