We speak often on this podcast about strength training for runners - which is drastically different than lifting for aesthetics. We are joined by running and strength coach Montana Depasquale for a discussion on how to pick a strength training plan that will actually improve your running performance - not just change your appearance.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- What to look for in a strength training plan
- Should you lift to failure?
- How to start and progress your strength training
- How do you know if you are lifting heavy enough?
- How much rest you need between sets
- Should you be sore after your lifts?
- How many times per week do you need to lift?
- What strength exercises should runners do?
- Do runners need upper body strength training?
