If you feel like you’re doing everything right, but your running still isn’t improving, this episode is for you!Most runners don’t have a motivation problem. They’re showing up, putting in the work, and pushing themselves. But more effort doesn’t always mean more progress.In this episode, I break down why your training might not be working, and the key shifts that actually lead to real results.We talk about:Why structure matters more than intensityThe role of strength training in performance and injury preventionWhy recovery is a critical part of your progress (not an afterthought)And how consistency beats perfection every timeIf you’re tired of feeling stuck, plateaued, or constantly fatigued, this will help you rethink your approach and start training in a way that actually works.And if you’re looking for a structured approach to your training, this is exactly what I build inside Commit.
