How Jenna Louise trains like an athlete ...

KATIE WILLIAMS
About this episode

If you want to level up your training, this one's for you.

Jenna Louise is a multi-discipline athlete who trains for up to 3 hours per day, 6-7 days a week. 

In this episode, Katie takes a deep dive into Jenna's lifestyle to find out how she trains like an athlete and how we can think about taking our own training to the next level.

They discuss:

  • How Jenna structures her week of training with running, lifting and strength & conditioning sessions
  • How to amp yourself up the night before a big session
  • Warming up properly before a workout to make the most of it
  • Recovering just as hard as you train
  • And why you don't need to feel sore after every workout
