More miles โ less strength. ๐โโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐ช
As my endurance athletes move deeper into their season, mileage increases. Long runs get longer. Rides get bigger. Race demands go up.
Thatโs when strength training needs to support the workโnot compete with it.
This TRXยฎ Training Power Bag series hits three things endurance athletes still need:
๐ฅ Single-leg hip thrusts โ posterior chain + single-leg strength
โก Cleans โ power + force production
๐ช Plank drags โ core stability + control under movement
We may adjust the volume and intensity as training load climbs, but we donโt abandon strength.
Because the goal isnโt just to handle more miles.
Itโs to stay strong enough to keep handling them.
Build mileage. Maintain strength. Stay resilient.
And yes, the BETTY DESIGNS kit works for lifting heavy things too. ๐ฆโ ๏ธ
