Crush your first half marathon while building serious strength in the gym. In 16 weeks, you'll develop an unstoppable engine for the road while hitting new personal bests in your lifts. Get ready to become the athlete who can dominate both distance and weight.
You're ready to tackle your first half marathon, but you're not willing to sacrifice your strength gains to get there. Here’s what you can expect:
- Build the endurance needed for 13.1 miles while maintaining your strength
- Learn how to balance running volume without compromising your lifting
- Develop the confidence to tackle both heavy lifts and long runs
- Master the art of recovery and progression across both disciplines
- Develop the endurance to conquer 13.1 miles with strength to spare
- Watch your squat, bench, and deadlift numbers climb while your running endurance builds
- Experience the perfect balance of volume and intensity across both disciplines
- Build real-world strength that translates to better running performance
- Transform into an athlete who's equally comfortable under a barbell or on the road
- Master the art of recovery between strength and endurance sessions
We've cracked the code on becoming legitimately good at multiple disciplines — without sacrificing what you've already built.
While others tell you to pick one path, we've been helping athletes like you excel in both. You've probably been told you can't build serious strength while improving your running - we're here to show you not only that you can, but that combining both makes you a more complete, robust and capable athlete. So if you want to become the kind of athlete who can crush a heavy lifting session and then go run a personal best, you're in the right place and we have the plan for you.
- Be comfortable with free weight compound movements (squat, bench, deadlift)
- Be able to run continuously for 60 minutes at a low intensity (Zone 2)
- Have access to a barbell and basic gym equipment
- Be ready to commit to 5-9 training sessions per week
