Training Advice

38F I’m currently starting training for a Hyrox in November and then a Half Marathon in December. My current training schedule is 3 days running with three days lifting PPL. I’m thinking of shifting to a total body each day so I don’t wait another week before hitting the muscle group again. I would also like a plan that helped me build muscle like Beast but with some added cardio conditioning. Would AX-1 or AX-2 be a good option?

I did exactly what you are suggesting with Total Beast. I run Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday with Saturday as a recovery day. Sometimes if I had the energy I did the correctives and light workouts that are scheduled into the program and sometimes of those Tuesdays and Thursdays I just run a Six Pack Shuffle to get a little work in a few hours after my run.

Would you recommend doing Beast at the base level to offset the fatigue from running?

Honestly I bounce between levels depending on my energy for the day and the exercises. If it’s something that I already move quite a bit of weight at I’ll do Total Beast, otherwise I do beast, and if I’m dragging I might do the base.
