Inside Athlete’s Corner: Fixing What Runners Get Wrong About Strength

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Gabriella Greif, an accomplished physical therapist, strength coach, and passionate runner, to dive into the intersection of strength, rehab, and real-world running.

We explore:

✅Gabby’s personal journey with running and strength training
✅How her background as a PT shapes her coaching philosophy
✅What she observed working in traditional healthcare and how it falls short for athletes
✅The biggest lessons she’s learned as an athlete herself (and the challenges that still show up!)
✅The most common mistakes runners make when it comes to strength training and injury rehab
✅Her take on hot topics like:
  • Hybrid training
  • "Strength will make you bulky" myth
  • When and how to strength train around your run training
✅Practical advice for runners looking to get started (or level up) their strength game
✅The story behind Athlete’s Corner and why it’s not your average strength program
