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.

How to be a Healthier, Smarter Endurance Athlete by Monitoring Your Body
Join Coach Patrick from Endurance Nation (www.endurancenation.us) for another weekly endurance podcast. This week Coach P reflects on Jan Frodeno's injury status after winning 70.3™ Worlds and how we can use this moment to make ourselves better atheletes.

While he's the fittest man on the planet cruising around on crutches, let's capture some good lessons learned. Key Talking Points include: Training has physical, mental, and emotional impacts. These "effects" are inter-related. The better you know your limits, the better you can safely challenge yourself to be better. The big picture goal is to remain healthy and consistent across your season.
