TRAINING
Discover Strength opens location in Scottsdale
Posted
Discover Strength just opened their first location in Arizona and is currently taking clients to help them achieve their peak physical performance.
As the weather warms up and marathon season approaches, there are a variety of training plans that athletes will follow to reach their full potential. Discover Strength’s CEO, Luke Carlson, has run 16 marathons and holds a personal best marathon time of three hours and eight minutes.
The brand’s 30-minute, twice-per-week strength training regimen is helping athletes, including Luke, efficiently reach new heights.
It’s no secret that marathon training can be difficult. With countless miles, strategies, and statistics, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Discover Strength helps athletes spend effective time cross-training, ultimately benefiting their long-distance running! According to Runner’s World, strength training accomplishes three goals for runners:
• Prevents injuries by strengthening muscles and connective tissues
• Helps you run faster by boosting neuromuscular coordination and power
• Improves your running economy by encouraging coordination and stride efficiency
Strength training is ideal for marathon runners this season as it helps to effectively cross-train and spice up a monotonous training regimen of miles upon miles every day.
