Runners who lift/lifters who run?
I've been on here for over three years and I noticed most people I know either do one or the other, but few do both. Am I a special person? I mean, I hit the gym five mornings per week and I run as many times. I like both equally. So, anyone is into both? Add me if you are!

Question about Garmin fitness trackers
Hi guys! I recently bought a Misfit Flash activity tracker. Not a bad product tbh, as it's pretty simple and straightforward and pretty convenient as it can be worn using a clasp. I was looking at Garmin's products and, well, there are quite a few and I was wondering... FIRST QUESTION: Is there a product that can be kept…

Sprint training
I've been wanting to improve my sprinting speed. If that matters, it's for soccer. I do endurance run (shorter and longer distances), but my sprinting speed doesn't seem to improve. Any tip, article, program, etc. would be appreciated!

The impact of music on running speed
Hi guys! Last night, I spent a part of the evening searching online for new music for running because my old playlist was a little redundant. Still good music, but it didn't give me that pump I had a few months ago when I established it. So after getting 30+ new songs, I put on my shoes, prepare my GPS watch, go out the…
