Description

Straight Shot Training did such a great job at our 10k training program, we wanted to bring another session to all the Steeplechasers!

Are you ready to take your running to the next level? Join us for a comprehensive workshop designed to show you how strength training can be the game-changer you’ve been looking for. Runners of all levels can benefit from incorporating strength training into their routines—whether you’re aiming to run faster, go longer, or simply run pain-free.

In this interactive session, you’ll learn:

  • The Benefits of Strength Training for Runners
    Discover how adding resistance exercises to your training can enhance your performance on the road or trail. Strength training helps increase power, improve running economy, boost endurance, and support better posture—leading to smoother, more efficient strides.
  • Injury Prevention
    Running can be demanding on the body, often leading to issues in the knees, hips, and ankles. We’ll show you how strength training builds the stabilizing muscles around your joints and strengthens your core, greatly reducing your risk of injury.
  • How to Incorporate Strength Training into Your Routine
    We’ll guide you on finding the right balance between running and strength sessions, so you’re maximizing gains without overtraining. From workout frequency to ideal timing around your runs, you’ll learn how to create a routine that complements your goals.
  • Exercises to Help You Run Faster, Longer, and Pain-Free
    Get hands-on with some of the best strength exercises for runners. We’ll demonstrate techniques that improve lower body power, core stability, and upper body alignment, empowering you to tackle any distance with confidence and comfort.

Join us and discover how small tweaks in strength training can lead to big results in your running performance. Whether you're training for a race or looking to keep up a healthy, enjoyable running habit, this workshop will provide the tools and knowledge to help you reach your goals.
