Hybrid Training: Balancing Endurance & Strength

May 11, 2026·43 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Hybrid training is trending right now, and so is the confusion about what it actually means. Spoiler: doing 20min of cardio at the end of your lift does not make you a hybrid athlete. Morgan, Sabrina, and Kelly break down what hybrid training actually is, why your body is being asked to adapt to two competing signals at the same time, and why that matters more than most people realize. They get into the interference effect, how to structure your week if you want to get better at both strength and endurance, the red flags that tell you're doing way too much without nearly enough recovery, and who probably should not be hybrid training at all right now. Plus a conversation about fucntional fitness culture, fueling for two completely different energy systems, and why eating enough is non-negotiable if you want any of this to actually work.
