WHO AM I?
...and why is this program different?
I'm Will Frantz and I want to help you hit your running goals. For years, I felt like I was spinning my wheels.
I'd train hard and see some progress, only to get injured and feel like I had to start all over again.
Thankfully, I found a better way.
I stopped following the standard advice I was finding on the internet and started diving deeper into a wide variety of training methods - and it's worked well to help me and the athletes I coach to perform better.
As runners, we often get obsessed with nothing but running more.
While running volume is important - you need to run a lot to do well in an ultramarathon - it's not the only thing that matters.
If we really want to perform well, we have to move well - which means getting stronger in the places that matter.
Solid performance comes from solid programming - and while there are a lot of great programs out there, most of the strength programs I found specifically for runners weren't very effective.
That's why I wrote this guide.
In this guide, you'll learn why strength matters, some fundamentals for writing your own program, ways to personalize your training and adjust for your running schedule, and 2 full programs you can use regardless of your access to equipment.
Check it out and see what you think.
Good luck and have fun training!
