Outdated Strength Methods Limit Gains
- Endurance athletes often use outdated low-weight, high-rep strength methods that limit gains.
- Modern S&C methods and variation yield better performance and injury prevention.
Schedule Strength In Off-Season First
- Plan strength training strategically in the off-season or active recovery to avoid interfering with competition.
- Introduce strength progressively to avoid excessive soreness and fatigue during peak season.
Master Technique Then Progress Load
- Prioritize movement mastery and technique before adding heavy loads, using progressions like goblet and box squats.
- You can use low-rep strength ranges without immediate maximal loads once technique is sound.
