RUNSTRONG gives you the structure you’ve been missing - clear, simple, and built for runners.
I’m a sub-3 hour marathoner, Ironman finisher, and physio with 13+ years helping runners stay healthy, get stronger, and chase new PBs.
Most runners skip strength and mobility, and end up paying for it later.
Tight calves, sore knees, another injury that knocks training off track… sound familiar?
That’s why I created RUNSTRONG.
It’s a simple, runner-specific strength and mobility plan you can follow, track, and stay consistent with, all inside the app or PDF

I stumbled across Sam on Instagram and was really struggling with my half marathon training.
Sam’s online programme was a combination of performance, mobility and strength training for me in the gym.
I would not have been able to get my PB without his support and guidance.
Thanks Sam!

Phase 1: Build the Foundations
Focus on isometric co-contractions, eccentric movements, and controlled isotonic exercises. This phase lays the groundwork for tendon strength, joint control, and movement quality.
Phase 2: Grow Capacity and Introduce Plyometrics
We build on the foundations by adding more dynamic loading, improving strength endurance, and introducing plyometric progressions to improve durability and performance under running-specific demands.
Phase 3: Strength, Power and Intensive Plyometrics
We dial up the intensity with more advanced strength training and reactive plyometrics. The goal is to improve your force output, running efficiency, and build stronger muscles and tendons.
Whats the difference between the PDF Document & the App ?
The App is designed to be more interactive and user-friendly. It lets you:
Log your reps, sets and weights for better accountability and progress tracking
Message Sam directly whenever you need guidance or support
Easily follow your plan week by week with an integrated workout calendar
Your access to the App lasts for as long as your subscription is active.
The PDF is a one-off purchase that’s yours to keep for life. It includes the full programme laid out in an easy-to-follow format with hyperlinked exercise demos you can open in separate tabs when you train. However, it doesn’t include progress tracking or direct messaging support.
Do I need a gym to follow the RUNSTRONG Programme?
Not necessarily. You can complete the programme at home if you have a few essentials:
- Dumbbells (or kettlebells)
- Power bands
- Booty bands
- A foam roller
Other tools like yoga blocks, heel raises, ankle weights, or a mobility stick (even a broom handle works) are optional and can often be improvised with things you already have at home or in the gym.
How long do the workouts take?
Each session is designed to take 60 minutes or less. As you get more familiar with the exercises and flow of the programme, your workouts will often become even quicker and more efficient.
How many sessions per week does the RUNSTRONG Programme include?
The standard plan includes two strength sessions and one mobility session each week. But it’s flexible, you can adjust around your running schedule if needed.
If you use the App, you’ll get access to different training “tracks” so you can pick what suits your time and goals best. For example:
▪️ 3 strength + 1 mobility
▪️ 2 strength + 2 mobility
▪️ Or the core 2 strength + 1 mobility setup
You can swap between tracks and adjust your week to fit your training load.
Can I do the RUNSTRONG Programme alongside my running?
Absolutely. The programme is designed to complement your running. Whether you’re in the middle of a training block or building a solid foundation before one starts.
It’s flexible enough to run alongside your current plan, or you can use it as a standalone strength phase during lower mileage periods to focus on building resilience and power.
