Strength Training for Endurance Athletes
We Will Make You Stronger
Endurance athletes spend all of their time training and competing by producing power with one leg. The MVP off season core strength training program is specifically designed to exponentially improve your ability to do this."It's the application of functional anatomy to training. You do almost everything in sports in a split stance, or by pushing off one leg from a parallel stance, so it just makes sense to train your body that way." - Mike Boyle, "Build Bigger Legs, One at a Time"
Periodized Fitness for Performance Improvement
Our proven approach to training endurance athletes combines multiple strength phases with mastery of body weight movements for enhanced structural stability with free weights to build head to toe strength and power. This approach has drastically improved the way Bay Area endurance sports enthusiasts move in the water, in the saddle and on their feet.
Whether you want to complete your next century or charity run in top form, or you want to reach the top step of the podium, we will help you get there.
From our Weekly IPF Community Spotlight Page:
How has it helped your riding?
I have seen a number of gains so far in my riding – the most noticeable one is more explosive power when climbing. My husband noticed it right away on a ride up Mt. Diablo on Christmas Eve. He noticed I have a lot more “pop” now."

20 Weeks 5 Phases, 1 Goal: Get as strong as possible
To insure you not only meet, but exceed your fitness goals, we've designed our program in the following manner:- October: you will increase your mobilty for better range of motion in your joints.
- November: you will gain better joint stability. This is a good thing because you can only exihibit the amount of power that your joint stability allows.
- December: now that your joints are more mobile with better stability, you will increase your total body strength.
- January: we'll put more hustle in your muscle through increased power.
- February: power endurance work, or simply put, this is where we kick yours so you will kick theirs.

A Proven Program
"I did the IPF offseason classes last fall and all the various phases of training that we went through during the winter/spring months (mobility, strength, power, power endurance, etc.) have definitely translated into improved performance and endurance this season. I also attribute the fact that I've stayed injury free to the benefits of IPF's total body approach."
