Listen in on a Team Strength Running coaching call, where Jason takes questions from the community about training, long runs, workout strategy, and more.

To join one of these calls, join the team here.

We discuss:

• Long run strategy (related podcast with David Roche!)
• The value of lifting heavy weights (start here)
• How to balance speed and mileage

Thank you for listening and supporting the podcast!

Thank You Lever!

I'm excited to partner with Lever - a bodyweight support system that helps you run further or faster with less effort and injury risk.

You've probably seen pro runners using Lever - it attaches to any treadmill and you hook into it like a harness. It effectively makes you lighter, enabling you to run more volume than you normally could with reduced injury risk, run faster with less effort, or return to running after an injury more effectively.

Lever allows you to do more running with less risk. From building mileage, introducing faster workouts, aiding your return to running after a break, Lever has a place in every phase of training. The pro's have been using Lever for years, giving them the advantage of more training with fewer injuries.

They're also common in physical therapy offices. Because you can run with less body weight, you can gain fitness and practice good technique without risking your recovery.

Go to levermovement.com and use code Strength20 for 20% off any system (and that's with a capital S). If you're injury-prone or are looking to take a big swing at your goals this year, now is the time for Lever. That's levermovement.com with code Strength20 for 20% off any system.

A big thanks to LMNT for their support of this episode! They make electrolytes with some of the highest sodium levels you can find. With 1000mg per serving, they help replenish what's lost when you're going long.

There's also no sugar, artificial ingredients, or colors. They are offering a free gift with your purchase at LMNT. And this does NOT have to be your first purchase. You'll get a sample pack with every flavor so you can try them all before deciding what you like best.

And BIG news! Their newest flavor is now permanently available : LEMONADE SALT!

I'm now in the habit of giving away boxes of LMNT at group runs around Denver and Boulder and everyone loves this stuff. I'm like a Salt Fairy.

If you haven't tried it yet, you have to give it a chance. For performance and recovery, try any flavor and get a free sample pack to try everything on this page.
