6 Week STAT Strides Strength Plan for Runners00This 6 week plan has two 3 week blocks. The first three weeks are the same workouts (workout 1-3) and then starting the fourth week there will be new workouts which are somewhat of a progression from the first 3 weeks. Each workout starts with a movement prep which is intended to get you ready for the main block of work and then followed by CNS prep which is meant to prime your central nervous system as well as develop power without already being fatigued. It is recommended to have access to the following: a few sets of dumbbells, a long resistance band, a mini band, and a few exercises require a either a sturdy chair or bench or step. the barbell movements are optional and each barbell movement has an alternative exercise that you can perform with dumbbells. It is recommended to perform the lifting days on your hard workout days so that you can fully recover on your recovery days. If you are feeling fatigued in your runs from the workouts, you can always perform just two of the strength workouts per week as all of them are total body.
