The Hybrid Athlete Journey
⏱️ Comprehensive Assessment
Understand Your Starting Point: We begin with a thorough evaluation of your current fitness level, goals, and any sport-specific requirements. Beginners will focus on the fundamentals without the need for pressure. More advanced athletes will go through a test week to define their expected 1rm and their key endurance metrics.
📋 Tailored Program Design
Customization for Maximum Impact: Based on your assessment, we craft a program that uniquely blends strength and endurance training. This isn't a one-size-fits-all; it's designed around your sport, strengths, weaknesses, and personal fitness level.
📈 Balancing load, fatigue & growth
Building Strength and Endurance Simultaneously: Our method employs techniques to push your limits safely, increasing both your strength and endurance capacities over time. We adapt the program as you progress, ensuring continuous challenge and growth.
📊Performance Tracking and Feedback
Data-Driven Improvement: Using tools like TrainingPeaks, we track your performance data to provide feedback for yourself, make adjustments, and celebrate your milestones. This step keeps you accountable and motivated, showing you tangible progress.
🤝 Community and Support
- You're Not Alone: Beyond the physical training, we foster a community where you can share experiences, challenges, and victories. This support system is vital for motivation and learning from peers who are on similar journeys.
🔁 Continual Evolution
Adapting with You: As you evolve, so does your training. We reassess and tweak your program periodically to align with new goals, changes in your sport, or life circumstances, ensuring you always train with purpose.
Our community loves our programming
Elevate Your Top-End Strength and unleash your power
Our programming features dedicated strength and conditioning sessions. Strength days focus on foundational lifts like the back squat, bench press, and deadlift, with a mix of strength, hypertrophy, and muscular endurance sets. Additionally, each session includes targeted accessory work to enhance muscle balance, improve stability & flexibility, and support overall performance. This approach ensures comprehensive strength development and resilience, covering all key areas for balanced fitness.
Build unstoppable endurance to achieve consistency across every mile.
During your endurance sessions, we work on both aerobic and anaerobic capacity with a variety of workouts. You’ll encounter long Zone 2 sessions for sustained endurance and high-intensity intervals like the 4x4 Norwegian protocol to boost VO2 Max. Each session is structured to accommodate both beginners and advanced athletes, allowing everyone to push their limits at their own level. This ensures that regardless of your experience, you’ll build a strong endurance foundation tailored to your discipline.
We don't just want you to put in the work, but also learn from us
Every athlete in our collective benefits from a training plan that is adaptable and scalable, based on individual performance data. We integrate the latest research on biomechanics, sports nutrition, and recovery to give you the edge needed to improve speed, power, and endurance. This ensures that no matter your level, H.A.C. provides a program tailored to your needs, pushing your limits while reducing injury risks.
