HOW WE TRAIN

RUN. LIFT.
COACHED, NOT CLONED.

Every session pairs treadmill conditioning with strength work, run in a small group with one coach watching the whole room — adjusting your pace, your load, and your reps to where you're actually at.

MODE treadmill running session
WHAT IT IS

Coached treadmill conditioning built to grow your engine: endurance, speed, and the top-end power that comes from sprint work. Not cardio for the sake of cardio.

WHAT HAPPENS HERE

Walking recovery, steady running, incline intervals, sled pushes, and parachute-resisted sprints. The modality changes session to session, the coaching doesn't. Pace, incline, and effort get adjusted to where you're at that day, not what the board says.

WHY IT WORKS

Planned intervals and coached recovery raise your VO2 and your work capacity without you having to guess the session: hard effort, controlled by someone watching the whole time, not junk mileage that just leaves you wrecked.

TRAINING AT MODE

THREE FORMATS.
ONE SYSTEM.

Foundation to build the base, Interval when time's tight, Signature when you're ready to push. All three are coached and programmed with intent — nothing here is improvised on the day.

OUR FLAGSHIP FORMAT
Signature training format at MODE

SIGNATURE

High-performance Run + Lift, in 2, 4, or 6 rounds of interval running paired with strength blocks — following the weekly body-part split below, at the intensity Signature is known for.

BUILD THE BASICS
Foundation training format at MODE

FOUNDATION

Treadmill work and lifting fundamentals, scaled to any level — the base your engine and your strength get built on, plus the consistency that makes the rest of the system actually work.

30-MIN TREADMILL HIIT
Interval training format at MODE

INTERVAL

Thirty minutes, treadmill only. High-output interval running that sharpens your engine and spikes your work capacity when a full session isn't on the schedule.

MODE Run and Lift Training
SIGNATURE — WEEKLY SPLIT

SIGNATURE'S
WEEKLY SPLIT.

MONDAY

LEGS, GLUTES + CORE

Lower-body strength, glute development, and trunk stability to start the week strong.

TUESDAY

BACK, ARMS + POSTURE

Pulling strength, arm work, and postural development through the upper body.

WEDNESDAY

FULL BODY CONDITIONING

Athletic movement, explosive power, coordination, and full-body output.

THURSDAY

GLUTES, CORE + LEG POWER

A second lower-body session focused on strength, resilience, and running support.

FRIDAY

CHEST, SHOULDERS + CORE

Push strength, shoulder stability, and strong trunk work to finish the week with intent.

SATURDAY

FULL BODY STRENGTH

Strength across the whole body with compound lifts and complete-body training.

SUNDAY

FULL BODY, UNILATERAL FOCUS

Unilateral strength work across the whole body to finish clean and walk into Monday ready, not wrecked.

Expect variation, not randomness. Every week runs the same logic — heavy strength early, conditioning mid-week, unilateral work to close — so each muscle group gets trained twice without ever stacking fatigue on itself two days running.
