The link below is an interview I did a few months ago for John Kuhlman regarding endurance athletes (or anyone who is a recreational jogger, biker, etc) and their reluctance to include more strength training into their programming. Lets face it, you’re more likely to find the Abominable Snowman making snow angels in your backyard than you are finding an endurance athlete in the gym lifting weights.
It never ceases to amaze me how many people fail to grasp the notion that resistance training CAN and WILL improve their times. Given the fact that the Boston area has a fairly large “endurance” population, I hope that many of you click on the interview below and learn a thing or two.
