Whether you’re a novice runner or seasoned runner or even a competitive athlete, there is no greater feeling than hitting the trail or treadmill and of course, crossing the finish line.  But as runners we also know there is no greater disappointment than coming up short in your goal or worse, being sidelined due to an injury.  That is why many runners are starting to take their cross training much more seriously.  But when left to their own demise, many a runner is left uncertain as to where to begin and how to stay on tract with an effective strength and conditioning program.

That is why I have designed the Strength2Run coaching app, a personalized strength and conditioning program designed specifically to meet the needs and demands of runners, offered directly through your phone or mobile device!  With my knowledge and experience in strength coaching as well as running, I design individualized training programs to suit your needs, goals, current fitness level, equipment available and of course, your schedule.  You will get all the perks of a personal trainer (program design, accountability, motivation, etc.) but with workouts done on your own time!

By now, you may or may not already be aware of the many benefits a well rounded strength and conditioning program has to offer runners.  Here are some of those awesome benefits you can expect to experience through my programing:

• Improved strength

• Improved flexibility

• Better form and running economy

• Injury prevention

• Improved body composition (weight loss, increase lean muscle)

• Improved running pace...help you get that PR!
  

Working with me through my Strength2Run training app, you will get personalized training programming to coincide with your running, your very own coach (me) and all the great benefits of a personal trainer, all from the comfort of your own home or gym done on your own schedule.  Strength2Run provides the following:

• Strength training program designed specifically for you

• Initial phone consultation to discuss current fitness level, health history, goals, etc.

• 2 workouts per week tailored to your goals and needs

• Fitness tracking

• Accountability and motivation

• Nutritional support

• Safe and effective programing, that keeps your run training and racing in mind

• Basic run programming (5k to full marathon)

• Monthly phone check-in

Why online coaching?  As I mentioned above, you get all the perks of having a trainer...specific programing, accountability, coaching, the list goes on, but with workouts you can do during your own schedule and at your own facility, home or even while traveling.  All through your phone or mobile device!  Not to mention it is much more cost effective than hiring a personal trainer at a gym (see below).

And through the app, you will get not just your workouts, but videos along with descriptions of each exercise, weight suggestions, reps, sets, rest and more!  You, of course, will be held accountable to completing your workouts with check ins and I will also be available for support through the app messenger as well as via email.

You get all the programing, accountability, coaching and support all for the low price of just $99 for one month of training.  And guess what, unlike gyms, personal trainers and other online programs, Strengh2Run offers month to month programing.  There is no sign up fee, no contract, no auto draft.  Receive coaching for as little as one month or for as like as you need!  (FYI: To train one on one with me in my gym, The Athlete Factory, you would expect to pay upwards of $80+ per session, with a minimum of a three month commitment, so my Strength2Run app is quite a deal to say the least!)

Ready to get started?  Simply visit my Strength2Run site to purchase your first month of training (payment made via PayPal) and be sure to click the "Become a Client" tab on the top right of your screen.  You will receive your link to download your app as well as welcome email from me to set up your initial phone consultation within 24 hours of payment.  Then we will be ready to roll, getting you stronger, faster and achieving your goals in no time!Don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any additional questions.  I look forward to working with you soon!
