The world of strength training can be so confusing and it can be hard to know what type of work can help you and your activities the most. What is the best way to get faster? Stronger? More agile? Recover from injury? The way you train - the load, the speed, the tempo - all of these change the response in your body. 

Join Brenna Backe, owner and trainer at Koa Fit Studio, for an hour workshop breaking down these differences. This interactive workshop will teach you what you should be doing for strength training based on your goals and needs. This workshop will be geared towards runners and walkers, but the information applies to all looking to use strength training to improve their health and fitness.

This workshop is being held in partnership with Fleet Feet Boulder and will take place at their Pearl Street store. Please RSVP in advance by clicking the link below.
