Today we're taking a deep dive into the health benefits of resistance training. We'll be covering strength training for runners, injury reduction, how it can help our mental health, improve bone density, metabolism, sleep, chronic disease and more. We're going to be debunking some myths and chatting about how more is not always better, and that finding the right balance for you is key. Strength training is for EVERYONE.

Today's episode is all the Hybrid Build Challenge coming to the commit app this January and how to build habits all year long! The start of a new year can feel motivating — and overwhelming at the same time. If you’ve ever started strong in January only to fall off weeks later, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we’re breaking down:
• Why most New Year habits fail (and what actually works)
• How to stay consistent when motivation drops
• How to build habits that fit real life — not perfection
• How to use the challenge as a tool
• How to carry consistency past January

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about building systems that support you — especially when life gets busy.

If you’re looking for structure, support, and a smarter way to train, the Commit App Hybrid Build Challenge starts January 5. It’s designed to help you build sustainable habits around strength, running, and real life. Sign up today!
