HYBRID FLEX: STRENGTH + RUNNING
HYBRID TRAINING
Let’s be honest — we all just want to look good in the race photos.
HYBRID FLEX seamlessly integrates the body composition and strength focus of our traditional FLEX program with running. The goal of HYBRID FLEX is to eliminate the guesswork of combining two training programs (lifting and running) that are usually meant to be done on their own.
This 10-week cycle is designed for those who don’t want to choose between strength and endurance, giving you a structured path to achieving both.
In this program, we’re not just running; we’re building a body that’s as fit as it looks.
Whether you’re a runner wanting to build muscle or a strength athlete interested in building endurance, HYBRID FLEX is your roadmap to succeeding at both.
FAQ

- Three to four days of combined strength and hypertrophy training each week that complements your running schedule without risking overtraining.
- Access bonus guidelines on nutrition, recovery, and injury prevention—all crucial for anyone merging high-intensity strength work with endurance training.
WHO'S THIS FOR?
- Runners looking to preserve or build muscle while improving their race times.
- Strength athletes looking to improve aerobic endurance without sacrificing muscle mass.
- Busy individuals committed to training 6-7 days a week, balancing easy runs, speed work, long runs, and strength sessions.
- Those who aspire to excel as all-around athletes who want the aesthetics of a lifter with the stamina of a runner.
WHY CHOOSE HYBRID FLEX?
HYBRID FLEX is for the ambitious, tenacious, and those who want it all: the strength to command the weights and the endurance to conquer miles. If you believe in having your cake and eating it too—looking the part and acting the part—this program is for you.
Combining a standalone hypertrophy or strength training program with a cookie-cutter running program is a recipe for burnout, injury, and lackluster results. Take the guesswork out of combining the two with us, and let’s continue to TRAIN HARD.
