Individualizing a Strength Program- how to make a strength program that works for you!

While it can be argued that there is a general recipe for strength training (warm-up, main lifts, accessory lifts, supplementary work), the skill and art of putting together an effective program comes in the individualization of each element. There are infinite combinations of exercises, sets, reps, loads, and rests, and manipulating any parameter will yield different results. On this weeks episode we dive into different considerations when creating a strength program for an individual (or yourself!). Want to dive deeper?

Talking Hyrox with Kayti Simonson

Today we are joined by Kayti Simonson, a 34 year old lawyer and pro hybrid athlete based in Calgary, Canada. Kayti has a massive sporting background - she ran 400m hurdles and played soccer in the NCAA, played semi-pro soccer in Florida, England, and Texas who impressively earned an undergrad and three post-grad degrees along the way! Kayti shares how she's dived head-first into the world of Hyrox, how her training has shifted as she's embraced endurance training (which is no joke coming from a speed-power/crossfit background!), and how she balances it all while practicing as a lawyer. This gal who does it all shares some great insight on how to approach goals in a new sport as a high performer.

Pre Race Planning and Post Race Debriefs

You've done the work, and now it's time to put it all together! We all know that consistent training is essential for great race day performance, but races are chaotic and wrought with unknowns. An underappreciated challenge of race day is "performing on demand" , or competing at your physical capacity in an uncontrolled environment, harnessing the work you've done into great race-day performance. To help, a bit of pre-emptive planning goes a LONG way! Spending some time thinking about logistics, setting goals, and creating an execution plan (or several) will provide direction to your efforts. Let's dive deeper on this week's episode. The Nitty Gritty Training Podcast is hosted by Jessica O'Connell, MSc, CSEP-CEP, OLY, and Faye Stenning, BKin, and coaches at Grit Coaching!

Running shoe development and biomechanics research for FEMALE runners with Lindsay Housman, Founder and CEO of Hettas

Today we are joined by Lindsay Housman, founder and CEO of Hettas, a company creating running shoes optimized for female biomechanics. The majority of athletic shoes have been designed, researched and tested on men and the Hettas fundamentally believe that design shouldn't be unisex: if you consider design from a female perspective, you'll end up with a better product for women — one that will positively impact performance and longevity. We are delighted to have LIndsay here to share about the research and innovation Hettas is working on in female biomechanics and physiology as well as the story driving force behind Hettas.
