CROSS TRAIN – KEEP IT FRESH

CROSS TRAIN – KEEP IT FRESH

Crosstraining means changing up what you do so you don’t just run! I know, I know, but

you LOVE it! You will love cross training, too. Cross training is a very important part of any

athlete’s training program as it helps keep the body healthy! Swim, bike, walk, strength train,

take fitness classes, yoga, do fitness videos, etc. Cross training can be done in one workout,

weekly, monthly, or even over seasons. It reduces the risk of injury, boredom, and dropping out.

It allows our muscles and joints to move differently and continues to shock and challenge the

body. The popular program called P90X (which I follow and recommend; visit my website www.

sixweekstoloverunning.com for more info) calls this “muscle confusion,” which is really just a

principle that has been around for ages called the Overload Principle. We adapt to what we do

within 3–6 weeks of doing something. We therefore need to consistently make small changes to

keep our body challenged, ensuring that we continue to get awesome results and stay healthy!

Not all running programs are created equal. Not everyone runs for the same reasons and

with the same considerations. Running to lose weight or to train for a marathon will require

different approaches to your training program. This book is to help you safely begin a

running program, develop a love of running, and set the habits to move toward whatever

your goal may be.
