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?

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
