The system is Franklin’s coaching method. Each part answers a different training need; together they create a more complete picture of the athlete.
Workouts · technique · race craft
Event training is the running, technical work, and race preparation specific to what the athlete competes in. A useful plan prepares the athlete for the actual demands and decisions of that event—not fitness in the abstract.
Learn about event training →Force · control · durability
Strength training develops force, movement control, and the ability to tolerate training. Runners need more than aerobic fitness to hold useful positions, express speed, and stay consistent through a season.
Learn about strength →Aerobic fitness · lower impact
Cross training uses options such as cycling, swimming, or pool running to develop aerobic fitness. It can add useful conditioning and training volume without making every aerobic session another run.
Learn about cross training →Movement · efficiency · review
Form and biomechanics describe how the athlete moves while running. Careful observation can lead to clearer cues, better drills, and useful technical changes without chasing one imaginary “perfect” stride.
Learn about biomechanics →Fueling · hydration · habits
Performance nutrition is the practical work of fueling and hydrating around training, school, travel, and competition. Consistent work needs consistent energy and repeatable recovery habits.
Learn about nutrition →Routines · attention · response
Mental preparation builds routines for attention, mistakes, and uncertainty. Racing asks athletes to make useful decisions and reset in real time—not simply feel confident beforehand.
Learn about mental preparation →Load · rest · readiness
Recovery connects training load with rest, restoration, and readiness. Adaptation happens between hard efforts, and the next session is only useful when the athlete is prepared to absorb it.
