CLRCLUB Philosophy

CLRCLUB philosophy is that training should be creatively individualized, with a goal of gradual progression guided by your own physiology and psychology, emotions and feelings, and injury free. 

By choosing a club and training plan ask yourself this important question:

What plan do I know I can complete, get fit and stay mentally healthy?

CLRCLUB vía its CCCC: Creative Coaching & Consultation Center, our CRSLAB: Creative Runners Science Lab and our 7CCLR: Seven Creative Circle of Life Rejuvenation, offers:

The potential to establish a CreativeLiving (CL) new healthy lifestyle combined with:

• CreativeRunning (CR)
• CreativeWalking (CW)
• CreativeJogging (CJ)
• CreativeSlowJogging (CSJ)

• CreativeMindTraining (CMT)

• CreativeRunningTherapy (CRT)
