How can I customize my cross-training plan for better results?

To customize your cross-training plan, consider your primary sport, fitness level, and specific goals. What are you aiming to achieve?

I'm training for a marathon, but I want to improve my strength and flexibility too.

Great! You can incorporate strength training twice a week and flexibility exercises like yoga or stretching on your rest days. How many days a week do you currently train?

I train five days a week, mostly running.

Perfect! You could add two days of strength training and one day of flexibility work. Would you like suggestions for specific exercises?

Yes, please! What strength exercises should I include?

Consider squats, lunges, deadlifts, and core exercises like planks. These will enhance your running performance. Would you like a sample weekly schedule?
