Empowered by Running. Running not only challenges the body and mind to strive towards goals one may have never believed were achievable, it builds community in a unique way. Running provides space that everyone can be part of. No matter where you are from, or how far or fast you are running, you get to be part of the greatness, part of the movement, part of the collective achievement.

Running has played a huge role in my life as an athlete, and as a coach. Being able to educate and connect with runners around the world is an incredible experience I am so blessed to be part of. Especially representing one of the top running brands and communities in the world.

A powerful experience to say the least. #nikerunning #nsrlform taken in Kurfürstendamm - Berlin Kudamm by @trainwithcoachbetts

Snippets from summer training @gymnastics_olympica_usa 🏋🏽‍♀️

Watch me demonstrate one of my favorite stability exercises—training increased stability through a flat foot vs. forefoot landings for improved load absorption, while emphasizing hip external rotation to optimize glute recruitment and alignment. Add a squat jump for greater difficulty and eccentric loading.

Excessive forefoot landing limits posterior chain recruitment, reducing the glutes’ ability to absorb force and control eccentric loading. This often shifts stress into the ankles, calves, and lumbar spine—common weaknesses in gymnasts. Training a flatter foot plant promotes better glute activation, enhances shock absorption, and improves long-term landing mechanics. by @trainwithcoachbetts

Caught in the act 😂 Coach Betts shenanigans in real time.

Sometimes I have to make up a drill on the spot because I need athletes to feel the difference between jumping over a hurdle and actually pushing through it.

💎🔑 Hurdling isn’t about getting as high as possible. The goal is to keep projecting forward—attack the hurdle, push off the ground, minimize unnecessary airtime, and get back down so you can keep sprinting. Too much “jump” usually means too much vertical movement, longer flight time, and a harder time maintaining rhythm between hurdles.

And yes… demonstrating all of this myself is exactly why I need weekly massages and treatment 😭😂

Coach life. The shenanigans never stop. 🥴🏃🏽‍♀️💨

This season is going to be special ✨🙏🏽💪 | @jonathanparra2029
I am beyond greatful that I have had the rare opportunity to coach Jonathan consistently over the years, we have built a strong foundation that has lead him to become All American, a 2x National Champion, and an outstanding Freshman Season ranking #1 Freshman in California, and #2 Nationally.

This is what happens when a coach and family come together to support a young athlete. I am so grateful for @ourfamilyvine and the many years of trust and collaboration. Only up from here! 🫶🏽✨🙏🏽 by @trainwithcoachbetts

I always say I never chose to coach, it chose me. Fourteen years later, after randomly responding to a posting looking for a coach at Helen Bernstein HS, I can honestly say this journey has shaped me just as much as I’ve hoped to shape the athletes I’ve worked with.

I started coaching because I wanted to give athletes the kind of technical foundation in hurdles and sprinting that changed my life and gave me the opportunity to compete at a D1 program. Go Bruins! 💙💛

I wanted athletes to feel seen. I wanted them to receive individualized support. I wanted them to understand the “why” behind what they were doing and never feel like just another number in a group.

I started with hurdles, but I quickly learned that better hurdling starts with better sprinting. That opened the door to speed development, acceleration, mechanics, and eventually working with athletes across different sports and different levels.

Over the years, my coaching has grown, stretched, and evolved. I’ve learned through successes, failures, experimentation, education, and most importantly, through the athletes who trusted me with their development.

Some of the improvements I’ve witnessed have completely expanded my own understanding of what is possible. Athletes have exceeded my expectations, exceeded timelines, and taught me just as much as I’ve taught them.

@anbtraining became a home for all of that growth. The wins, the progress, the lessons, the relationships, the memories, and most importantly the young people who showed up and put in the WORK.

I’m so grateful for every athlete, parent, coach, friend, and supporter who has rocked with @anbtraining over the years.

People often think ANB means A & B, but it’s actually my initials.

Back in high school, my coach called me Betts… and it stuck. Everyone called me Betts.

There’s something really special about connecting who I am to what I do.

So, after all these years, it feels right.

Thank you all for rockin with @anbtraining.

Now it’s time to @trainwithcoachbetts. 🧡

Developing a strong foundation, one workout at a time. There will always be time for more running. Preparing the body for peak performance and efficiency is more important right now. Can't wait to get on the track and test out the new engine we are building. by @trainwithcoachbetts

A little bounce, a little burn, and a whole lot of good energy. ✨

I’m starting my Saturday morning with Trampoline TRIM at The Sun Rose West Hollywood, and I’m so excited for this experience!

A low-impact trampoline workout blending cardio, strength, balance, and mindful movement, followed by mimosas, wellness goodies, and a little post-workout restoration. 🥂

Movement, community, and a little luxury? Yes, please.

Let’s get this Saturday started! 🤍
