Stronger and Faster Group Class

Wednesdays @ 6:30pm

 

Since 2013, Stronger and Faster Durham has hosted a 10-week strength training for runners class every Wednesday at 6:30.  We offer four 10 class sessions per year.  The class has been SOLD OUT every session since 2013.

 

Stronger Runners, Run Faster.

 

Runners run.  Strength training is an afterthought for most runners.  The Stronger and Faster periodized strength training program for runners takes the guess work out of adding strength to your running program.  Our program follows the professional periodized strength continuum of both collegiate and professional athletics.  Periodization is a system of training used to prevent overtraining and reduce the risk of injury by progressing slowly from one phase to the next. You start by using light weight (or just your body weight) and performing more reps; and you gradually progress to heavier weight and fewer reps.

 

The S.A.F. runner’s strength program is broken down into three distinct phases, which complements your running schedule.  The phases are off-season/recovery, pre-season, and in-season training. All phases are movement based training focusing on the 6 human movements of push, pull, squat hinge, loaded carry, and rotation.  We train in all planes of motion and in all movement actions.
