New Plyometric Plan for Team Endurance Nation
Join Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation (www.endurancenation.us) for another weekly endurance podcast. This week Coach P talk about one of our important "lessons learned" from running with power thanks to our partners at Stryd. Running with power isn't just about getting stronger -- it's about becoming more efficient. And thanks to Stryd, we can now track and target our Leg Spring Stiffness (LSS) as a measure of running efficiency. While LSS typically improves across a season as you build your running fitness, you can fast track it's improvement with non-running specific activities. Strength training, drills and plyometrics are an option, and Endurance Nation has chosen to use plyometrics as the tool for our members.
