Size matters
 😂

Being a bigger runner isn’t the problem.

Training like you’re 20kg lighter might be.

More mileage isn’t always the answer.

If you’re carrying more mass, you need to respect the demands that come with it.

More strength to handle the load.

More fuel to support the work.

More recovery so you can actually adapt to it.

I’m 90kg and I’ve run a 2:39 marathon.

I didn’t get there by trying to train like a 60kg runner.

I trained to become a better athlete at 90kg.

Stop trying to become a smaller runner.

Start becoming a better bigger runner.

We’ve coached 100’s of clients to their first and their 10th marathons, 50% of them have been over 80kg and thought to get there they’d need to be lighter, they didn’t.

Be willing to adapt!

Knees have been grumbling recently, more so than they have for a long time which has meant I’ve had to pivot on some training sessions, note that’s pivot, not skip.

12x 1km tready today, got 3 in and they weren’t playing ball, at all.

The outcome of this session was threshold into some VO2 max, remember the body doesn’t recognise exercises, only stimulus, so how can I get the same training effect without the same session?

Replicate the demands through other means.

2km bike at 1:45/1000m
30-60s rest
1km ski at 1:45/500m
30-60s rest
1 mile assault bike at 400-420w
60s rest

X3 blocks.

9 intervals at very similar HR and duration as the running efforts would have been.

Good coaching doesn’t mean perfect plans, it means adapting to the environment and giving the athlete / client what they need in that moment.

No one wants to admit this but now the summer chaos is out of the way, you need to get back to setting some standards when it comes to your training.

Reality is, most of you don’t have any clue where you’re actually at right now, and because there’s no benchmarks, you’re just completing random session after random session but wonder why you’re still producing random results


This is the exact reason why we’ve created ‘THE STANDARDS’ programme.

Week 1, we’re testing where you’re at on your trap bar deadlift, bench press, pull-ups, broad jump, farmers carry, 5km run and 2km row. Everything from strength, power, conditioning and endurance.

For the 10 weeks after we’re training, I don’t just mean ticking boxes, we’re getting after it.

Week 12 we test again, and smash week 1’s results out the park and set your new standard!

12 weeks programming, community support, weekly resources to support your journey, surrounded by like minded people looking to be the best version of themselves.

Just ÂŁ299 for the duration. Finishing the year in your best ever shape physically and mentally.

Programme starts 28th September.

I’m pumped every single day to work with the clients we have in the EDA programme!

This one got me fired up right from when she told me she’d entered at the start of 2026.

Beccy Sykes just absolutely nailed the Badlands gravel race in the Spanish desert, 507 miles in just under 63 hours.

Out of 307 people, she was 1/15 women who completed it.

This is an ELITE race.

Bex will tell you herself, she lives a normal life, busy and demanding job but has always had some big goals she wants to achieve.

She’s always cycled, but when she came to us with the idea the main thing we needed to do was get her very f*cking strong. Cycling alone will only get you so far, when the legs don’t want to continue, your cycling ability is now irrelevant.

We’ve spent the last 6 months lifting heavy, 3x per week as a minimum, progressively overloading it, going into long rides on a weekend under fatigue to replicate race day. Practiced our fuelling strategy 3-4 months out so everything she ate could be used and not wasted. Trained in the heat so we’d be ready in the peak of the day when the race was at its hottest.

We threw everything at this because we knew it would throw everything at her.

Too many people put limits on what they’re capable of due to fear of it not working out, but what if it did work out?

This is an every day athlete if ever I saw one đŸ‘ŠđŸ»

16 in the legs to start the weekend đŸ«Ą

Gotta hand it to Puma, in the last 2 years they’ve come back on the running scene and absolutely delivered, the deviate pure is such a solid daily shoe. Must admit though, at 90kg and with 2 previous knee surgeries I think my days are limited with a daily runner, other than carbons for the faster work and race days I think I need to stick with a max cushion for 80% of my mileage to drag a few more miles out this old rig 😂

Ok, so it’s here.

The last six weeks have probably been chaos.

Work. Family. Holidays. Social occasions.

And somewhere amongst it all, you’ve probably lost your way a little.

Training has taken a back seat. Routine has disappeared. You’ve been ticking sessions off rather than actually training towards something.

But now you’re craving it again.

Structure. Routine. Purpose.

You know it’s time to start training with intent again.

That’s exactly why we created THE EDA STANDARDS PROGRAMME.

12 weeks to reset your baseline and see what you’re truly capable of.

We’ve set 7 physical standards that I believe every everyday athlete should be striving towards.

Standards that demonstrate strength, power, conditioning and ultimately how physically capable you are.

So the question is


CAN YOU MEET THE EDA STANDARDS?*

1. Trap Bar Deadlift 3RM
2. Bench Press 3RM
3. Strict Pull Ups
4. Standing Broad Jump
5. Farmer’s Carry 40m
6. 2km Row
7. 5km Run

Week 1, we test.

That’s your current standard.

Then we spend 12 weeks getting stronger, faster, fitter and more capable before testing again.

This isn’t about comparing yourself to anyone else.

It’s you vs you.

Set the benchmark.
Train with intent.
Raise the standard.

Train everything. Be ready for anything.

Starts Monday 28th September.
ÂŁ299 for the full programme.

*Full EDA Standards and the scores you’ll be aiming for are available on the opt in page.

As an athlete you’re balancing multiple sessions per week, multiple different stimulus and chasing multiple different outcomes.

These are all ingredients in the recipe, and you can only have so much of each before you spoil the dish.

I’m a huge fan of full body strength work and maximising the time you have in the gym to allow you to focus on other components through the week.

Everything you need and nothing that you don’t.

This lower volume approach allows you to recover sufficiently between sessions because you’re never hammering any one muscle group.

We can train every part of the strength curve here


Power
Speed strength
Strength
Accessories / isolation.

Save this one for your next full body session, works mega for runners, hybrid, team sport athletes, especially when in season and lifting volume is lower!

1. Jumps / Plyos
3-4x 3-5

2. Olympic variations / loaded jumps / throws
Clean / sn**ch pulls, banded work.
Sub maximal loads moving fast and with intent.

3. Squat / hinge. Barbell, machine, deadlift, RDL, trap bar, hip thrust.
3x 3-5
One on day 1, the other on day 2.

4. Vertical / horizontal push. BB / DB bench / shoulder, machine.
3x 5-8
One on day 1, the other on day 2.

5. Single leg + pull superset
If you’ve squatted before this, hinge on this and vice versa. If you row on this day, pull-up / pulldown on the next.
3x5 / 3x8-10

6. Accessories / isolations
Smaller muscle groups, arms, calves.
3x8-15

As always, so many ways to train, but you’ll never go wrong with this set up đŸ‘ŠđŸ»

Everyone’s training time is different, some can do more than others, but ultimately how efficient you are with the time you have will have a bigger impact on the outcome.

60 mins.

10 mins easy

3x 10 mins @ 350w
5 mins easy spin between

10 mins easy spin

So for anyone who is getting drawn into 15-20+ hour training weeks whilst trying to hold down life because they think that’s what’s ‘required’ this one should hit.

Quantity matters, but not at the expense of quality.

For the bigger runners watching, get good on the bike and watch your running AND recovery go through the roof!

02/09/2026

GOING ALL IN.

This is so thing that people get very judgmental on, because they think that unless they can go ‘all in’ then there’s no point.

They think going all in is sacrificing everything else that matters to them.

Reframe this, go all in with the time YOU have. Meaning you waste no time with the time that YOU have available. Not anyone else, YOU.

This now stops comparison.

I could run a faster marathon if I trained for 20 hours per week I’m sure of it, but I haven’t got 20 hours per week km@prepared to give to it without sacrificing other things that are important to me.

And that’s the point. But also most people’s limiting belief and why they struggle with commitment.
