🏃‍♂️Attention endurance athletes! To improve your strength and performance, have a goal to eventually lift 1.5-2.0x your body weight in compound lifts like the front squat. Gradually increase by 10 lbs in lower body lifts every 2 weeks and 5 lbs in upper body lifts every 2 weeks, with a down week at the end of each phase. 👉Beginners (less than 2 months training age) should aim for 1-2 lifting sessions per week, while intermediate lifters (2-6 months training age) should aim for 2-3 sessions per week. Keep lift days on the same day as your harder workout days and aim to lift after your main session (preferably 6 hours or more later). 💪Examples of resistance training exercises for runners/sprinters include: clean, front squat, step lunge, step-up, leg extension/curl, toe raise, trap-bar, bench press, and rear arm row. 👀Keep your lift tempo at 1-2 seconds (concentric to eccentric). However, for increasing tendon stiffness, 3-3 seconds can be implemented. 📅Here’s a basic plan breakdown for the season: -Off-season: Preparatory phase (low to moderate intensity, 50-75% 1RPM, 3-6 sets, 8-20 reps) -Half off-season, half pre-season: Specific preparatory (basic strength) with high intensity (80-95% 1RPM, 2-6 sets, 2-6 reps) -Preseason: Pre-competitive [(low to very high intensity, 87-96% 1RPM for non-power (ex. squat, bench press, trap bar, deadlift), 30-85% for power exercises (ex. box jump, clean, powerclean) 2-5 sets, 2-5 reps)] -Inseason: Maintenance (moderate to high intensity, 85-93% 1RPM, 2-5 sets, 3-6 reps) and Peaking (very high to very low intensity, 50-93% 1RPM, 1-3 sets, 1-3 reps). Post-season: Active Rest Most phases 4-8 weeks, with the Off-season hypertrophy being on the lower end for the runner and the Peaking phase being 2 weeks at 1x week. Remember to prioritize recovery and adjust your plan based on your goals and available time. Keep pushing yourself and see those gains in running economy and performance!!! 💪🏃‍♀️ ⭐️ Share to a runner who wants to incorporate lifting! Like and Save for later.
