Strength For Endurance Podcast

Today Kriss is joined by Sophie who came onboard several months ago as our consulting Physiotherapist. As a keen endurance athlete herself, Sophie both understands and has experienced first hand the highs and lows of training, racing and injury. The two sit down to talk about the close link between physiotherapy and strength & conditioning and how they are working together on a weekly basis to ensure our clients are getting the best advice, support and injury management possible. They talk about how training errors often cause injury and that certain rehab approaches simply aren’t enough to get you to a place your body is ready for the demands of your sport. This is a great introduction to the work Sophie does with us at SFE, and you can expect to hear more from her down the line. Keep up to date with my recent coaching insights - here  P.S.

Kriss is joined by one of his Austrailia based clients for this episode, who whilst training for a trail marathon up in the mountains suffered a significant ankle injury. As many of you know whilst out on the trails, help is not always near and after several hours she managed to hobble her way into the hospital ER. Kriss and Kate discuss her journey from using crutches and a moon boot, to being consistent with her rehab exercises, to then running her first half marathon since the injury. It’s a familiar scenario that many listeners will be able to take confidence and reassurance from, so thank you Kate for sharing your story!

Whilst many Ultra-runners progress to the longer distances at a some what 'more mature' age, todays guest ran her first 100km when she was just 15 years old. Since then Lucy Bartholomew has gone on to become a true ambassador and inspiration within the sport, with many impressive achievements to her name. But today's episode shows us much more than her results resume alone and rather how much of a well-rounded athlete and individual she has become. Kriss and Lucy discuss what she has learnt along her running journey so far, how an introduction to strength and conditioning at a young age gave her such solid foundations to build upon and her rather refreshing outlook on the sport that so many of us love. We talk about her upcoming Western States 100 (@lucy_bartholomew) and the highly recommended documentary following her pursuit of the 231km Larapinta trail www.runningoutmovie.com.

Today's podcast guest and SFE client Jon, loves nothing more than getting out on the trails and navigating the mountains, but when he decided to tun up the pace from hiking to faster trail running goals he soon found himself a world of pain. Jon and Kriss look at where the gaps were in his training approach that lead him to injury and subsequently joining us at SFE. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, however if Jon's story can help other runners to prevent going down the same path, or atleast know that there is a way back to happy, painfree running again then that's got to be a positive.

If you are someone who only strength trains in the winter months or during your off season, not only are you potentially skimming the surface of your potential but you're also risking having a very short 'race year' due to an increased likelihood of injury. Your strength training won't look the same all year round that's for sure, but if you want to stay injury free and performing at your best you need to be maintaining that strength base throughout the year, to simply support the intensity and demand you are putting on your body.
