Workout of the Week

Hey hey, Wright Training, happy start of spring to you all.  I’m not sure about the rest of you but I am still hoping to have some big storms come in and be able to get out on some fresh powder with more of this beautiful sunshine and warmer temps.  With all that quad work…

Stamina workouts, especially those longer than 20-30 minutes, can be mentally fatiguing and hard for athletes to stay committed to. In AMRAP cycles, coaches can encourage athletes to complete each round of exercises in the same amount of time to stay at a steady, consistent pace, but this can result in conservative work efforts that…

This week I am going to make a plot twist and turn this into this week’s “Warm Up of the Week”.  Recently, I have adopted a simple warm-up to do before I go out skiing. As we know skiing is not a kind sport to your body… The nature of the sport has a tendency…

Happy fall, everybody! I hope everybody is enjoying ski fit so far, keep chugging on those leg blasters! A couple of members from Wright Training have approached me about doing a sled fit class. Although we haven’t put together a specific progression for a sled fit, the following workout could be used to help you…

Hello team and happy fall! Nothing says fall to me like the start of ski fitness, I hope everyone enjoyed their first week of leg basters. I know when you’re sore it can be hard to motivate to get your body moving, whether that be working out at the gym or taking your dog for…

The Bachelor The goal of this is to encourage people my age to fix their sh*! and re-consider resistance training. I, by no means, am a guru, but have observed a range of people and listened to desires and regrets. So I’m currently 28 and at the season in life when most of the friendships…

I believe strength training during pregnancy is very important. It definitely helped my recovery and labor and helped me prevent injury while pregnant. So many women stray away from resistance/strength training while pregnant but what they don’t know is there are a million exercises that will help keep you toned, prevent the chance of injury…

I’m sure everyone is out putting his or her Run and Bike Fitness to the test, that is why I designed this workout of the week to be done entirely on you’re biking or while running. This program is entirely based outside and will test your stamina capacity and help you translate some of the…

Summer is finally here in Jackson and with that comes a delicate balance of spending precious time outside while also keeping up on your strength training in order to prevent injury and maintain balance in our bodies. This workout of the week is designed to provide a combination of lower impact strength work with kettlebells…

Hi team! Bike fitness is over and I hope you all have been able to get out and use all that awesome strength you gained! This week’s workout is out of the gym and on the hill! For this WOW, I wanted to share with you a little something I’ve been doing to switch things…

Sun, sun, sun.  The weather has finally started to make a change for the better and the start of June means more sunshine, warmer temps, and the sweet outdoors.  We are lucky to live in such a beautiful place and we have plenty of outdoor space to take advantage of.  Summertime activities such as biking,…

I don’t have to tell you that the common notion in our culture is more. It makes sense, we have to fight our human tendency to literally sit on the couch all day. Our ancestors needed to save as much energy and consume as much energy (calories) as possible. Food was very hard to come by,…

This is one of my favorite sport-specific programs we do but it is always hard to get the kayakers in and to commit to training. Kayaking can be hard on your body especially whitewater kayaking. It is super important to strengthen your shoulders and core. Also, loosen and strengthen the glutes your back and hips…

As many of you know, I became a new father two weeks ago. I know I am new to the game but I am already finding out that making time for everything is definitely more difficult. When baby and work come first, getting a workout in can be tough. I have worked with parents before…

With the sun heating the ground up, we will soon be returning to our regular Spring/Summer sports. As we all know, balancing work, sports, social life, and exercise can be tough. For this Workout of the Week, I wanted to make a simple program to help balance your lifestyle. The majority of the workout is…

Hi team! I hope everyone has been able to get out of Jackson and enjoy some nicer weather. Spring is such a hard season for me. I really struggle to stay motivated when the weather outside is so nasty, you don’t really want to be outside and for some reason sitting on the couch reading…

Just as closing day at the village this year provided a variety of skiing/riding conditions, this workout gives you a mix of strength, anaerobic capacity, and stamina. The strength effort will help you find the neurological connection between your lower and upper body by requiring your glute and shoulder to work together to get a…

Japan, land of the rising sun and endless powder… Recently, I embarked on a three week trip to Japan for a film project. The trip was truly unbelievable. Among the highlights were summiting Mount Yotei. Yotei is a strato-volcano based in Niesko on the northern island of Hokkaido. To reach the summit, you have to…

This workout comes from Monday, Wednesday, and Friday Base Fitness course. I wanted to highlight this workout because it had a great blend of both stamina and strength. To start things off, we move right into a 20-minute AMRAP. When you go through the workout, really focus on moving quickly through the sprints then move…

I get asked a lot what is Bike/Run Fitness, and I always get the question don’t I just bike to get ready for bike season? Or I don’t run I don’t want to take the class. So I figured I would explain to everyone the benefits and what Bike/Run Fitness entails. This class is an…
