The Secret Sauce For Your Endurance Training
Built For Athletes & Optimized For A Time-Starved Life
The missing link in your training
Purple Patch Strength is a powerful structured, progressive program designed specifically for endurance athletes that can be adapted to any phase of your season. Strength training amplifies your existing triathlon, running, cycling, or other endurance sports training to optimize performance, reduce injury and increase resilience all year long.
Random training yields random (and underwhelming) results
Strength training is vital for successful athletic performance, yet it’s often treated as an afterthought - if it’s done at all. Many athletes are left to fill the gap, often ending up with random, generic, and nonspecific programs plucked off the internet or youtube.
This program is not generic or random.
The difference: specificity, structure, and progression
Purple Patch Strength is built on the same proven methodology found in our Squad and 1:1 coaching. It targets movements and muscles needed to maximize endurance performance while building critical tissue resilience, mobility, stability, and coordination.
Enhance your existing endurance training
The truth is, you should be doing strength all year long. Purple Patch Strength integrates with your existing coaching or training to make that an easily achievable goal:
Unique structure
Complete full-year strength program delivered in a progressive format that evolves through the season and includes build phase, race-specific, and post-season/off-season blocks of training.
Maximum flexibility
All sessions can be completed regardless of access to a gym or special equipment and include adaptations to adjust to your fitness level.
Included Race-Specific block of training can be dropped into your calendar to align for a build towards any endurance event, regardless of the time of year.

How It Works
Each phase of the year-round Purple Patch Strength program has a specific purpose and progression, building and providing critical variance, ensuring you progress all season long. Over the course of the year you’ll see the emphasis shift, and cover critical components of functional strength including muscle building, stability, mobility, coordination, tissue rejuvenation, and balance.
If your A-race falls outside of the race-specific portion of the Purple Patch Strength cycle, no problem — simply use the Race-Specific Strength build included in your workout library to ensure your strength training is perfectly aligned with your race prep.
