Thanks Nichole from Pure Clean Fitness for joining us!!

I have been spending the last few weeks working on a solid base, getting ready for marathon training to begin in January. That means a lot of slower steady miles, less speed work, and not much in the way of long mileage. That doesn’t mean that I am not still working on my power house, my explosive abilities, I am just doing it a bit differently.

How?

Well I am so glad you asked, one of my favorite things to do is a set of plyos (explosive moves) at the end of my solid run. I have gotten some strong miles in, then move quickly to pushing those legs and cardio into a fatigue.

Are you ready to do this with me?

Work hard, push hard, and you will enjoy the consequences later!

Asian Pear, Avocado, and Blue Cheese Salad is a tasty twist on your every day salad!
