Hey everyone! 👋 Dropping in with something I think will be REALLY valuable for this community. Tomorrow's 30-minute live webinar on something that doesn't get talked about nearly enough: Upper Body Strength for Runners Here's why you should care: Most runners focus 90% of their training on legs (obviously). But that means 90% of runners are missing out on significant performance gains and injury prevention that comes from proper upper body training. What we're covering: 🔬 The Science Part: How your core, back, and shoulders contribute to running economy, power transfer, and sustained form 🏥 The Injury Part: Why lower back pain, IT band issues, and form breakdown are often upper body problems in disguise ⚡ The Performance Part: Real research showing how upper body strength can improve running economy by 3-8% (that's HUGE) 💪 The Practical Part: Specific exercises and programming that actually work for runners This isn't "go do CrossFit" advice. This is targeted, running-specific information that you can implement immediately. When: Tomorrow, 9am PST/12pm EST Where: just click on the link inside the calendar I'll be doing live Q&A at the end too, so bring your questions! Who's in? Drop a comment if you're joining! 👇
