  • Is Creatine Worth the Hype? Weighing the Pros & Cons with Physiologist Brady Holmer

    Is Creatine Worth the Hype? Weighing the Pros & Cons with Physiologist Brady Holmer
    May 29 2025

    Creatine is now one of the most hyped supplements with promises of faster recovery, leaner muscle gain, and even increased strength and power.

    But should distance runners consider adding it to their routine? Is it worth the benefits while considering its drawbacks.

    Brady Holmer is a physiologist, 2:24 marathoner, and author of the Physiologically Speaking and Run Long, Run Healthy newsletters (the latter was previously authored by legend Amby Burfoot). He joins us to discuss:

    • What is creatine and what it does
    • Its benefits (and caveats with those benefits)
    • Potential drawbacks
    • Timing and dosing of creatine
    • Whether it's ultimately worth it for endurance runners

    You can also follow Brady on X for commentary, new science, and humor.

    Thank you 2XU!

    If you haven’t tried 2XU technical compression gear, you’re missing out. 2XU has been the world leader in performance compression for 20 years, helping runners feel better and recover faster with compression gear that’s backed by scientific evidence. Their graduated compression gear is engineered to improve blood flow and performance while speeding recovery.

    My personal favorites include the Light Speed React half-tights (with tons of pockets for your phone and fuel!) as well as their Ignition Shield tights (for colder weather).

    Knowing that their gear is engineered for runners by runners and backed by research makes me absolutely love 2XU. Go to 2xu.com and use code “JASON” in all caps to get 20% off sitewide, except clearance items or wetsuits.

    Thank you MOBO Board!

    Invented by renowned physical therapist Jay Dicharry, MOBO helps you stabilize your stance with an innovative rocker board that’s set up on two fins. The design effectively forces you to drive your big toe into the board to improve your stability. I was pretty arrogant going into my first session on the MOBO Board. How hard can it be to balance, right? Well, I was humbled pretty quickly!

    Even if you’re a good runner, better balance, stability, and proprioception is going to help you have a more powerful stride and prevent more running injuries. You’ll learn how to improve the efficiency of the kinetic chain from your hip to your big toe. Because as Jay likes to say, it’s not just how strong you are, but how well you use that strength.

    I was recently at a weekend physical therapy workshop (lol I was the only running coach) and learned how important (and rare) this simple movement is. Save 10% with code STRENGTHRUN10 at checkout at moboboard.com.

    Thanks to The Performance Training Journal!

    The Performance Training Journal is now available on Amazon and debuted as the #4 new release in the running category. Since I started running in 1998, I’ve kept a hardcopy training journal. Holding a tangible log, writing in it daily, and reflecting on the ups and downs of running is a surefire way to improve.

  • Coaching Call: How Brandon Resolved ITBS, Ran 4 PR’s, and Set New Mileage Records

    Coaching Call: How Brandon Resolved ITBS, Ran 4 PR’s, and Set New Mileage Records
    May 22 2025

    My client Brandon has had an amazing few years: he resolved several imbalances, improved his stride, healed ITBS, ran PR's in 4 major race distances, and also set a few training mileage PR's .... wow!

    In this episode, he explains how he turned his running around and got faster, healthier, and able to train even more.

    A big part was his embrace of strength training with our High Performance Lifting program. For other options, see all of our Training Programs.

    We discuss:

    • What his training was like before he made this transformation
    • How he changed his approach to running for the better
    • The distances that he set PR's in
    • The most important lessons he'd tell you if you want to improve
    Thanks Boulderthon!

    Boulderthon is a top 10 race in America according to USA Today and one of the best fall marathons according to Runner’s World. With a 5k, 10k, half marathon, and marathon, Boulderthon offers an amazing fall destination race weekend right at the foothills of the Rockies. Use code STRENGTH20 for $20 off the marathon or half marathon.

    Join me in Boulder, one of the top running destinations in the country, on September 28th, to experience the tight knit running community here, race on the epic streets of Boulder, and finish on historic Pearl Street. While I live in Denver, I travel to boulder probably once a week to run. It’s arguably one of the best running locations in the United States.

    There’ll probably be cool and crisp fall weather for racing fast, too. And don’t worry, Boulderthon is a BQ-eligible, USA Track & Field Sanctioned Event.

    Boulderthon is on track to sell out again this year so don’t miss out. Use code STRENGTH20 to save $20 on the marathon or half-marathon here and I hope to see you in Boulder this fall.

    Thanks 2XU!

    If you haven’t tried 2XU's technical compression gear, you are missing out! I love their tights - if you’re following me on Instagram you’ve seen me wear these tights all the time. Two Times You has been the world leader in performance compression for 20 years - helping runners feel better and recover faster with compression gear that’s backed by scientific evidence.

    Their graduated compression gear is engineered to improve blood flow and performance, while speeding recovery. Plus, they also have arm and calf sleeves for more targeted compression if you need it.

    The Light Speed React compression half-tights are my go-to now that it’s warming up here in Colorado. They’re built for speed, have enough compression to give me the support I want, and enough pockets for my phone and a lot of gels.

    Knowing that their gear is engineered for runners, by runners, and backed by research, makes me absolutely love 2XU. Go to 2xu.com and use code JASON (in all caps) to get 20% off sitewide (except clearance items or wetsuits). Again that’s code JASON for 20% off at 2xu.com
