Behind the Scenes as Volt’s Own Chelsea Badger Trains for Her First Marathon — Volt Performance Blog

How have you structured your training? Can you walk us through a typical training week?

CHELSEA: Volt has been a game changer for my strength training; I can log in, follow my pre-programmed workout, and track everything in one place…

My training schedule prioritizes running, so I typically run on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays. Wednesdays are reserved for speed or progression work, and Saturdays are for long runs. The weekly distance and number of running days vary based on my program—if Wednesday’s session is particularly intense, I’ll rest from running on Thursday.

Strength training is also essential for runners, so I usually strength train 2-3 times a week, typically on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with an occasional session on Monday. For anyone interested, I highly recommend the Marathon training plan in Volt!
