RUNNERS! We know you’ve been looking at all that strength-training-for-cyclists in the SYSTM app and muttering to yourself ‘Why don’t they release a strength training series for the needs of people like me?’

Mutter no more! We’ve just quietly launched a new 5-level series specificially to help runners improve performance and reduce the risk of injury. Each session includes a progressive set of exercises that include a focus on the lower body, posterior chain and core, in addition to supplementary movements for the upper body.

Have a go and let us know what you think! ( _Oh - you may have to log out and then back in to SYSTM to see them_ )

Thanks! @David.McQuillen.KoS Are these going to get added into the triathlon strength plans? Same with yoga for runners, will those get added into triathlon plans with added yoga?

My feedback: I did #1 and #2 this morning, in sequence. Good to have more running content in Systm but my impression so far is that they’re a little easy compared to their counterparts from Level 1 and 2 strength in Cycling and Tri plans.

Coaches - It would also be good to see how these should fit into a training plan, too. Duathlon plans ready yet?

Thanks.

Also a bit more rambling about where Systm is going with the recent introductions of [Yoga](https://wahoox.forum.wahoofitness.com/t/new-content-yoga-for-runners/17035) and now Strength Training for Runners …

I’m curious about Wahoo’s apparent intent to provide content for “Runners” vs in the past, focusing primarily on cyclists and secondarily on multisport athletes (who run) …

_Is Wahoo’s intent for single-sport runners to find a home in Wahoo Systm?_

It seems to make sense if I look at Wahoo’s sponsored athletes, but I figured that was to promote the Elemnt Rival and not Systm.
