Background Middle-and long-distance running performance is constrained by several
important aerobic and anaerobic parameters. The efficacy of strength training (ST) for …

Background Concurrent strength and endurance (CSE) training improves distance running
performance more than endurance training alone, but the mechanisms underpinning this …

Background Recently, much attention has been paid to the role of neuromuscular function in
long-distance running performance. Complex Training (CT) is a combination training …

Background Several strategies have been used to improve running economy (RE). Defined
as the oxygen uptake required at a given submaximal running velocity, it has been …

The objective of this study was to compare the effect of different strength training protocols
added to endurance training on running economy (RE). Sixteen well-trained runners …
