Host Matthew Boyd welcomes Jason Fitzgerald, founder of Strength Running, to discuss misconceptions surrounding 'off-season' running. Fitzgerald criticizes the idea of an off-season, suggesting the term is non-specific and is not typically found in expert coaching literature. Both Boyd and Fitzgerald highlight the importance of continuous training cycles for runners, emphasizing a need for strategic, moderate input rather than extreme fluctuations between high and low seasons. They discuss the danger of de-training and the risk of subsequent injuries as important factors to consider in maintaining a steady training schedule. Utilizing key running milestones and setting 'training PRs' during what could be called 'base training' or 'pre-season' are suggested to build strong foundation for subsequent training. 00:00 Introduction and Welcoming Guest 00:22 Discussing 'Off Season' Training 00:38 Guest Introduction and Background 03:37 The Concept of 'Off Season' in Running 05:56 The Problem with 'Off Season' Training 07:44 The Importance of Consistent Training 12:26 Planning Training Around Race Schedules 16:01 The Importance of Recovery and Base Training 24:00 Setting Training Goals and Milestones 29:46 The Relationship Between Training and Injury Risk 44:49 Concluding Thoughts and Guest Contact Information Follow Jason Fitzgerald Website: https://strengthrunning.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasonfitz1/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@StrengthRunning --- If you’re an injured runner we can help you get back to running pain-free.

I was recently invited on Brodie Sharpe's Run Smarter Podcast to chat about returning to speed and hill training after injury. We took a deep dive into the topic of injury prevention and discussed safe ways to return to hills and speed. We explored the biomechanics and common injuries associated with downhill running, such as IT band syndrome and patella femoral pain. As well as Achilles tendon and proximal hamstring tendon issues caused by uphill running. We discussed evidence-based guidance on gradually building capacity and monitoring pain levels through the use of pain traffic lights. As well as the "Adaptive Zone" approach and the concept of the rehab ladder for safely progressing runs.

If you have had plantar fasciitis, you are far more likely to have plantar fasciitis again than someone who never had it. It’s the same with Achilles tendonitis, shin splints, runner’s knee, ITB syndrome, all of them. Every runner reading this will have had a running injury in the past. Most runners get injured every second year. Injury is also the most common reason that runners quit. So the question of how to avoid re-injury is extremely important...

Mike hadn’t run for 9 months due to his Achilles pain. He was trying to train for his first marathon, but he couldn’t even run around the block.  He’d just been for another visit to the doctor who told him to continue to rest and if it wasn’t better in a month he was going in a boot. At this point, he felt completely hopeless. Like the healthcare system had failed him. He figured he’d just have to quit running for good. He came to me wondering how on earth to heal his Achilles Tendonitis. I told him that, essentially, tendons hurt when they’re not strong enough to do their job. If you want to make it stop hurting, you have to make it stronger. Healing an Achilles tendon is a lot like raising a child. There are different phases. And with each phase, come new challenges...

In this episode, Matthew delves into the topic of running injuries with Physiotherapist and Podcaster Brodie Sharpe. They discuss the different types of runners and their motivational approaches, as well as the common mistakes made in training that lead to injuries.  Brodie emphasizes the importance of load management and staying within one's capacity, rather than exceeding it. They also talk about different methods of injury treatment, including foam rolling, stretching, and manual therapy, and whether they are effective or not.  Overall, the episode emphasizes the need for long-term solutions and management to prevent injuries and reach the goals of all types of runners.
