Ep 69| Stop Running Your Easy Days Too Hard
Your easy runs are probably too hard. Let's fix that together.Lace up and come run with me. This is a 40-minute audio coached run, and it's actually easy. No intervals, no hero moves. You'll probably feel like you're holding back, and that's exactly the point.I'm heading to Portugal for a trail running adventure, and I'm in the middle of a full-blown taper tantrum. So on today's run, I'm taking myself (and you) through why your fitness isn't going anywhere.On this run, we'll cover:What my metabolic assessment taught me about my foundationWhat the gray zone is, why it has a purpose, and why living there backfiresWhy "just run faster" doesn't raise your ceiling the way you'd thinkWhy getting back into running so often ends in injury (hint: running is a power sport)Why your watch's zones and pace estimates are guesses, and how RPE fills the gapA safety check, because we're outside and I want you home happyWhat to expect: a 3-4 out of 10 effort. You should be able to talk in full sentences the whole time. If you finish feeling like you could've done more, you nailed it.A little teaser: I'm building an assessment that uses audio coached runs like this one to help you field test, so you know your zones are accurate. Want in? Join the waitlist hereKnow someone who runs everything too hard, or keeps getting hurt every time they start up again? Send them this one. Then come back and tell me how it felt.Press play and let's go run easy.Follow and tag me on Instagram

The 25-Minute Workout I Give My Multi-Sport Athletes Ep. 68
New episode! I'm sharing a workout I built specifically for one of my athletes, Anthony, he plays both baseball and basketball, so this one's designed to hit what both sports actually ask of him: an engine that doesn't fade late in the game, plus the explosive, repeatable speed you need for a stolen base or a fast break.25 minutes, start to finish. 5-minute warm-up, a 15-minute tempo run (steady effort into some fast/recovery intervals), and finishing with short max-effort sprints; hill or treadmill, your call. I coach you through the whole thing in real time, just like I would on the track with Anthony.If you're a coach, a parent, or you've got an athlete in your life who could use a session like this, send them this episode. Easy to hit play and follow along, no equipment list, no overthinking it.And if you want more of this kind of stuff, come find me on Instagram @aliciasfitness, that's where I post the extra training tips and behind-the-scenes stuff that doesn't make it into the episodes.
