yo this is some of the greatest and most beneficial content i have seen on youtube no cap

I love running.

This channel is a hidden gem for any coach. Thank you for all the great information and content.

This makes sense! As my squats increasing, simultaneously my pace seems more effortless.

Weight training has become essential for me as a distance runner in improving economy and staving off injury.

Dane is so knowledgeable! He was my coach for weightlifting and helped me improve tremendously. Now I’m a runner and use a lot of his strength methods in my training. If you’re looking for an all around great coach. Dane is your man!

As a d2 college runner I really appreciate this video. My running personally has improved from strength training

When I was preparing for my first ultra marathon - 50 miles - I began doing much more squats, lunges, sled pushes and pulls,  deadlift and so on.

despite the terrible terrain on the run (it was a trail run with many hills), I never really had issues with leg soreness or felt like I was losing the ability to keep generating power. I fully stand by strength training helping endurance sports.

I’m doing the same thing now in prep for a marathon and it’s working nicely.

More videos about distance/ultra/trail running!!

I just start coaching cross country. Thank you for this channel

I started strength training again. I don't have a weight set so I just use resistance bands. I'm training for the Peachtree road race. Last year my time was 44' 37". Hopefully this year it will be even better.

Lear a lot from your videos , now these one shoud update. 😊

Appreciate the videos.  When I saw the term distance runners I was not thinking 1500m or 5000m.  I was thinking more like 13.1 miles or 26.2 miles and beyond.

Your shirts are 🔥

Nice, informative video for any runner!

So glad you addressed this, bc iv tried and tried to explain to running coaches how important it is for distance runners to strength train. its not all about running only, having the ability to push through a race starts in the weight room no matter what the sport is. I even perform box jumps with my long distance runners.

Good stuff!!!!

Is that nick in the thumbnail ?!  Thanks for the information 🙏 you put out there for us.

Yess thanks for the video 😆.
