Two coached programs. One app. Train with Jens. Train with Jens puts Jens's coaching in your pocket — every session written out day by day, so you always know what to do, how to do it, and when to push. Choose the program that fits your goal. Each is a single one-time purchase, with no subscription and no recurring billing. HYBRID RACE PREP — 12 WEEKS Built for hybrid-fitness racing: the running, strength and conditioning race day actually demands. • Six coached sessions every week, from base building to race-week taper • Every set, rep, distance and rest period laid out for each session • Weeks 1–4, Aerobic Base + Speed: build your engine and learn the race • Weeks 5–8, Threshold Development: heavier strength and longer intervals raise the pace you can hold • Weeks 9–11, Race-Specific Peak: goal-pace running and full race simulations • Week 12, Taper: volume comes down so your fitness shows up on race day • Set a goal race and count down to it, with your race-day weights in one place LIFT + TONE — 6 WEEKS A gym strength program for lifting heavier and building shape while keeping your engine. • Four strength days built on supersets, plus a cardio + core day and a Zone 2 day • Reps come down every two weeks (10/8/8/6, then 8/6/6/4, then 6/5/5/4) so the weight goes up • The Zone 2 walk or run builds from 30 to 60 minutes • Your rest day goes wherever your week needs it IN BOTH PROGRAMS • How-to videos for the movements you don't know yet • Swap any movement you're missing equipment for, and keep the week's progression intact • Log your sets, weights and paces — your history carries from week to week • Rate your effort and share your session with the group • A direct line to Jens and a community of athletes chasing the same goal NO SUBSCRIPTION Each program is a single one-time purchase and is yours indefinitely. No recurring billing. YOU DON'T NEED A RACE ON THE CALENDAR Both work just as well if you simply want to train like a hybrid athlete and get stronger, faster and better conditioned.
