  • The Rise of Hybrid Training: Why Combining Strength and Endurance Is the Future
    Jun 24 2025

    Welcome to another episode of the Assemble Performance Podcast! In this solo episode, I dive deep into the concept of hybrid training: what it is, why it's become so popular, and why it's truly the future of fitness. Starting with the origins of hybrid training as defined by Alex Viada, I discuss its growth over the last decade and what makes it increasingly appealing today.

    I outline the four main reasons for its rise, from influencers to the accessibility of hybrid events. I also talk about the one downside of hybrid training for elite athletes and contrast this with the numerous upsides like improved performance, enjoyment, and better health outcomes. Towards the end, I share practical advice on how you can start hybrid training and offer a free four-week training plan as well as a more detailed 12-week program, Hybrid 101, for those ready to dive in. Don't miss this comprehensive guide to making hybrid training work for you and achieving greater strength, endurance, and overall life satisfaction.
