We want people to listen, engage, take the best bits and LITERALLY RUN WITH THEM!Episode 22: STRENGTH TRAINING FOR ENDURANCE ATHLETES OF ALL ABILITIESIn episode 22 Lewis is joined by Dr Rich Blagrove, who is fast becoming the 'go to' practitioner for strength and conditioning for endurance athletes here in the UK. Rich is a senior lecturer in Physiology at Loughborough University and he is also Programme Leader for the MSc Strength and Conditioning and contributes to teaching on several undergraduate and other postgraduate programmes in the School.
