Running Strong: Running and Strength Training Tips for Everyday Athletes

Why Getting Stronger Makes You Faster - ESR 29

Listen Later

Can you get faster by getting stronger?

Absolutely.

This week, I discuss how to use strength training to get faster.

  • What different types of strength training can do
  • Volume in strength training
  • Why heavy lifting can be important and when to do it
  • Why I like full body over split programs
  • Fixing strength deficits
  • What exercises matter for speed
  • More...

    • NOTE: I would like to note, there are a lot of sweeping generalizations about strength here. You have to find what applies to you.
