More About the Program

Empower’s Signature Cross & Core Training for Runners consists of 4 main modules:

  1. Mobility Training – designed to help you increase or maintain range of motion and improve postural alignment.
  2. Strength Training – improve muscle power generation and absorption of ground reaction forces.
  3. Elasticity Training – improve running economy and overall endurance.
  4. Corrective Exercise – Address weaknesses and imbalances in running-specific muscles that tend to get easily fatigued and negatively affect running posture, gait and efficiency

Each week you will learn new exercises that will help you address each of the 4 main areas listed above. This program is offered both virtually in a self-study format and in-person similar to our personalized fitness services. Together these 4 components work together to help you build a solid foundation and provide you with an effective cross-training program that complements your weekly mileage. Empower’s own Nestor Paonessa, ultra-marathoner and cancer survivor will coach you every step of the way.
