Zivit Spector DPT, PT | Austin, Tx

This has been front and center for me as I’ve been going through my recent marathon training block. The amount of strength I was doing before was not sustainable with my running volume, and tapering that down made me feel like a fraud PT (because I preach strength training to runners everyday).

That being said, I’ve been coming to terms with the idea of the ebb/flow of training goals. Throughout marathon training, the goal isn’t to BUILD strength but rather to maintain the strength you have to support the load of running.
