On many forums I see people discussing strength training but more often than not many still don’t know what plyometric training is, and even more so don’t know what it looks like for endurance athletes. What do you desire most of all? Resilience, strength, stability, power, confidence across all terrains? If that’s correct then plyometric training needs to be a non-negotiable - and we’re not just talking box-jumps. Listen in as Kriss discusses how to go about implementing this method of training both progressively and effectievly into your program. P.S.

In todays episode Kriss discusses the huge gaps in the current health and training education system - which is seeing patients who are recovering from significant injuries and just being told to start running again without any duty of care around their levels of S&C. In a time where even the National Governing Bodies within the endurance world are producing coaches with very limited skill sets, the SFE Training Course aims to upskill coaches, trainers, health professional and concious athletes to manage issues from injury through to peak performance. The course fills in the missing links between physio and performance but even more so how we can build stronger endurance athletes as a whole.

This week we’re discussing the best method of strength training for endurance athletes, whether that’s for running, triathlon, cycling, adventure racing etc etc. Unfortunately there are still a lot of classes and programs on offer claiming to deliver ‘strength and conditioning’, but a closer look and it’s clear that they are actually doing more harm than good when it comes to training endurance athletes. From unnecessary volume and intensity, to busy group classes and generic exercise prescription there are many training errors that we can become innocently swept up in. Listen in to todays episode so you know what to look out for and where’s best to direct your efforts. We hope you enjoy!

We all love to train, we have a passion for living an active lifestyle, however one of the leading factors of injury is overtraining which is often due to people continuing to only do the things they love and neglect the things that they actually need to do.

With the ‘boom’ in popularity of ultra distance events over the last 10 years there has never been more accessibility or desire to enter these once ‘unrealistic’ races. From a physiological standpoint it would be fair to say that there is a very wide mix of experience and physical capabilities amoungst those who take part. And due to the ‘adventure' nature of these ultra distance events, there is often less pressure put on how fast you do it and more emphasis on just completing it at your own pace. But what we are noticing more than ever, is that people are coming into the sport with potentially very little athletic background. Individuals lack the level of conditioning that is needed, making them less tolerant to the demands of ultra distance training and competition and more susceptible to injury and compromised performance. We work with individuals on a daily basis with goals ranging from 5k through to 250 miles and beyond. Whatever you’re in pursuit of, make sure that your body is ready to take on the demands you’re asking of it. Get it touch and we can discuss your next steps [email protected] We hope you enjoy!

We thought it would be fun to dip into the archives this week and have chosen to re release one of our most popular episodes, where Kriss answers the common question "Can you train strength and endurance effectively at the same time?" Whether you're listening to it again, you missed it the first time or maybe you're a new listener, we hope you enjoy and get some useful tips. For most endurance athletes time is a precious commodity. Regulary clients approach us who are training upwards of 15-20hours a week, whilst also trying to hold down a full time job and spend time with their families. Often this leads to corners being cut or sessions being squeezed in throughout the week, without much benefit. Todays episode asks the question of concurrent training and whether we can both strength train and complete our endurance sessions (run, bike, swim etc) at the same time; whether this be the same training phase, the same day or the same hour. If you're struggling to get the most out of every session or you just can't see where on earth you'd fit another strength session in, then this is a perfect listen for you. We hope you enjoy!

There is a naive belief that just getting strong is going to be the answer to overcoming pain and improving your performance.
