Most marathon plans treat strength training like an afterthought.
Most nutrition guides ignore the fact you're also trying to keep weight on a bar.

This one's different.

JB sits down with Tom McClure,  OMNIA's Head of Performance Nutrition and a hybrid athlete who actually does this stuff, to go through everything that matters when you're chasing 26.2 miles without watching your strength fall apart.

Tom pulls back the curtain on his own London Marathon prep -  what's worked, what hasn't, and the honest reality of fuelling hard training blocks when life doesn't slow down for you.

In this episode, Fergus sits down with Dr. Phil Price to tackle one of the most common questions we get from OMNIA Athletes.

Do I actually need to be doing double training days?

And more importantly, if I do, how do I stop them from quietly wrecking everything else in my week?

Phil brings the research. Fergus brings the lived reality of coaching hundreds of athletes trying to balance lifting and endurance training around jobs, kids, and lives that don't care about optimal session timing.

No Reddit rabbit holes. Just the stuff that actually matters.

In this episode, OMNIA Head Coaches JB and Kieran do something we don't do enough of.

They turn the tables on each other.

No athletes. No programming breakdowns. Just two coaches who've been in the trenches for a combined 20+ years being honest about what they've learned from one another since joining forces at OMNIA.

Kieran drops a line that JB wrote down on his phone the moment he heard it - and it's the kind of thing that'll stick with you long after the episode ends.

They get into why Kieran's cycling block quietly destroyed his running times without adding a single extra run. How plyometrics can be scaled to pretty much any athlete and why most people skip them entirely. And what happens when a coach who spent years working almost exclusively with military athletes suddenly has to communicate very differently.

It's part coaching masterclass, part honest conversation between two people who are still figuring things out.

Which, honestly, is the best kind.

In this week's episode, Craig and Fergus get into turbos, TT bikes, aero helmets, shaved legs, and why spending 20 grand on a Canyon means nothing if you can't hold the position for an hour. Plus: crocodiles in the swim, the Ironman brand debate, and the unglamorous reality of what triathlon actually is. Spoiler: it's mostly laundry.

If you want Craig in your corner for your next race, he has 1:1 coaching spots available now.

In this episode, Fergus catches up with Craig - triathlete, OMNIA Coach, and fellow Scot now based on the Gold Coast. One of them is training in 32-degree heat. The other is on a turbo in Spain. 

They cover Craig's rowing background and why he walked away from a potential GB squad spot at 17, the long road from perma-bulk to first Ironman, what it actually means to coach athletes who need pulling back rather than pushing forward, and why doing something for the first time only happens once -  so you'd better respect it.

Also: disc wheels, shaved legs, calf sleeves, and the aerodynamics of walking to the shops.

No fluff. Just two coaches who've made most of the mistakes so you don't have to.

Stay tuned for part two.

Most athletes never train with weight on their back.

Then they show up to a military selection, a mountain ultra, or a multi-day expedition - and wonder why their legs give out at mile 8.

Whether you're prepping for military selection, a mountain event, or you just want to be capable in the real world -  this one's for you.

Someone complimented Francois on his biceps mid-Ironman.

While he was running.

That's what happens when you stop chasing the pump and start training with actual mechanical tension.

In this episode, JB breaks down how hypertrophy really works - the one driver behind muscle growth that most people completely miss, why soreness and fatigue are not the signal you think they are, and how hybrid athletes like Francois, Ben, and Matt built serious muscle while training for big endurance goals.

No bro science. No fluff.

Just what actually makes muscles grow - and how to keep that present in your training no matter what you're training for.

What separates the athletes who push through from the ones who fold when it gets hard? It's not talent. It's not genetics. It's mental toughness - and the good news is, you can train it.

In this episode, Head Coach Kieran Richardson breaks down exactly what mental toughness looks like in the real world of endurance sport - stripping away the clichés and getting into the practical tools you can actually use. 

If you've ever hit a wall mid-race and wondered why your mind gave up before your body did - this one's for you.

In this episode of the Omnia Performance Podcast, JB and nutritionist Tom McClure tear into the myths around bulking, cutting, and “doing it all at once.” 

Tom explains why most athletes are under-fuelled, under-recovered, and chasing the wrong goal. They break down why fat loss and muscle gain rarely play nicely together, why maintenance isn’t a cop-out, and how obsessing over the scale is holding your performance back. 

If you want to train harder, race better, and stop sabotaging your progress with bad nutrition advice...this one’s for you.
