On today's episode of Find Your Edge, I share my personal journey to embrace challenge as a core value and how it led me to commit to the XTERRA North American Championship in 2025. From a road accident that redirected my passion to mountain biking, this episode is all about unearthing hidden potential and setting audacious goals that serve as catalysts for growth. Off-road triathlons, with their unpredictability and unique demands, provide a thrilling canvas for this journey, especially since only 20% of participants are women. It's about striving not just to finish, but to excel, improve skills, and nurture resilience.
Get ready to be inspired to set your own challenge for 2025—whether it's in sports or another arena—and explore how confronting the unknown can ignite your imagination and fortify your character. DM us your personal challenge to @theenduranceedge on Instagram or Facebook.

What if integrating just two strength sessions per week could revolutionize your performance as a triathlete? Join us as we review recent research in strength training for triathletes. For example, athletes who combined endurance and strength training showed significant improvements in cycling and running economy compared to those who focused solely on endurance. This episode tackles the practical hurdles of incorporating strength routines, emphasizing the importance of proper form and overcoming resistance to heavy lifting.
Beyond the gains in athletic performance, we highlight the crucial role of protein intake in maintaining lean body mass and supporting bone health. We delve into essential exercises such as squats, lunges, pushups, and calf strengthening, which are pivotal in addressing common weaknesses and preventing injury. Furthermore, we discuss posture issues, such as progressive kyphosis, often stemming from modern sedentary lifestyles, and the necessity of multi-joint exercises for overall athletic enhancement. Whether you're a seasoned triathlete or a newcomer to the sport, these insights offer a pathway to optimizing your training regimen and performance.
