COMMENT ‘START HYBRID’ for our free resource for setting up your week of training. You do NOT need to live in the gym five days a week to be a strong hybrid athlete! We promise the bro split is not the only way. The carousel breaks down exactly how to make it work, whether you have two days or four, and yes, we included the option for the overachievers who want four days. 🔥 You know who you are.

The thing about being a hybrid athlete is that you get to be mediocre at a wider variety of things, but still better than the average person. HYROX just lets us showcase that across 8 stations in real time. If you’re trying to actually improve at the 8 stations, and not just a self-depricating hybrid rock star, we got you. Comment HYROX HELP, and I’ll send you our breakdown for improving each station in your next HYROX.

Have you found yourself wondering when to jump back in, just like Amanda? She has mental grit and is hard to keep down after illness or injury. But we needed her to slowww down. 😅 The itch to get back into training after being sidelined is real for those who have come to love movement. Back to running, back to the gym, back to training for races, HYROX, marathons, whatever you had locked in. But picking up right where you left off after illness or injury might actually cause you to be sidelined longer than you would like. Your body needs a reentry. It needs time. And that is what we helped Amanda figure out. Returning too soon can impact your immune system and extend recovery, and we wanted her in for the long game, not a quick fix. Our coaches hear this all the time. Members who want to go from zero back to a full training block overnight. And the hardest thing we tell them is: slow down strategically. ✅ That is genuinely harder than just going hard. But it is what protects the goals you already set. You do NOT have to figure out the return plan alone. ‘Comment CHAT,’ and a coach will send you a message to help you navigate jumping back into training.

It’s time to ditch the “beach body” BS and embrace your ADVENTURE BODY! Swipe to discover the summer fitness mindset that actually changes your life. 💖💖

On a life well lived, the celebration of what our bodies can do, and having the fitness to say yes 🤍 The annual @thelyssmethod summer challenge is coming up — all centered on the simple goal: building the fitness to say yes, adventure more, live bigger. 💖 Will we see you inside? ✨

Summer running is not the time to white-knuckle through bad training decisions. A few things that matter more than people think when the temps climb. First, the sodium piece since that’s what the last slide is about. Your sweat sodium concentration is HIGH early in the heat before your body adapts — we’re talking up to 1380mg per liter of sweat. Plain water without sodium replacement is not enough, even if you’re drinking plenty of it. Here’s what to actually do: Salt your food more than usual, especially in the first couple weeks of summer training. Add sodium to your fluids during sessions — aim for 500-1300mg per liter depending on how hard you’re sweating and how long you’re out there. Carbs before AND during runs over 60-90 min — glycogen gets used faster in the heat. And try to replace up to 150% of what you lose in sweat before your next session (weigh yourself pre and post if you want to get specific). The gut piece is real too. Blood gets shunted away from your GI tract in heat, which is why eating during a hot run feels so much harder. If you normally tolerate gels fine in cool weather and you’re suddenly struggling, that’s physiology, not weakness. Lower intensity foods, smaller amounts more frequently, or liquid options tend to sit better. And if you have a fall race and you’re reading this thinking “I’ll start training when it cools down” — please don’t. You want that base and that heat adaptation built NOW. You’ll show up to fall race season in a completely different position if you train through summer instead of around it.

“The course is…stout…it’s stout.” That’s what the race director said this morning as we gathered around for the 7am race briefing. Less than 24 hours before, a friend asked me if I wanted to jump into a 10 mile race. And having the fitness to say ‘yes’ to that is one of the most powerful feelings. To climb 1,100 ft over the first 3 miles, smile on the switchbacks on the way down, and spend my Saturday morning taking in views from the top of a mountain…all because I have the fitness to say ‘yes’. I will never give that up. The experiences I get to live because of my fitness are invaluable, and they’re exactly why I keep showing up, putting in the work, and choosing to build a body that lets me say ‘yes’.

But seriously, runners who lift run BETTER! 🏃 And here is why: Runners who strength train 2 times a week reduce their injury risk by up to 50%! Lifting fixes common running issues like painful knees, IT band pain, and plantar problems, so you can keep running. Another myth we can bust right here is that “lifting slows you down” or “you get too bulky to run.” If you have been reading that on social, we call BS! Adding 8 weeks of strength training to your plan can improve your running economy by 4-8%. That is the energy cost for the pace and effort you want to run, making you more efficient, and who doesn’t want that? Miles and volume matter, but if you have hit a wall, strength training can help you get over that hurdle. It gives you the strength and power to give the kick in the butt you need. 💪 If you want to be a 70-year-old, still crushing miles, you’ve got to lift. Flipside, if you’re in your early 30s, you lose muscle mass if you don’t lift. A runner who is a lifter also finds that mental grit, both in the squat rack and on their last mile for a long run. ^^ All those benefits are why we preach science-backed hybrid training, and our programs target strength training and smart runs.

Every person who makes training look easy has a stack of terrible workouts behind them that you never saw. 👀 The hours. The self-talk. The sessions where you stare at the bar and genuinely consider faking a hamstring tweak to go home. Nobody posts that part. And the adaptation process is MEAN at the start. If you just signed up for HYROX and week one made you question every life decision that led you here, that’s normal. That’s not a sign you made a mistake. That’s your body going “wait, are we doing this NOW?” and starting to figure it out. We see this constantly with new TLM members. That first phase is real and it is hard and we have so much respect for anyone grinding through it, especially when you can’t feel the progress yet. Here’s what’s actually happening though: every time you show up, you’re sending your body a signal. Your muscles start catching on. Your lungs start catching on. The work that flattened you in week two becomes the warm-up by week six. Not because you got lucky but because you kept going back. 👏 And for some people in this community, training isn’t just building fitness. It’s getting through a hard week. A hard month. Whatever. The gym shows up even when nothing else does. So if you’re not feeling it today, go anyway! Drop a 🏃‍♀️ if you’ve ever dragged yourself to a workout and come out the other side completely glad you did.
