AIHP, UESCA Launch the Run + Strength Hybrid Coach Certification Bundle

Highlands Ranch, CO / Nov 2, 2026 / Academy of Integrated Human Performance, LLC

With the rise in hybrid race participation, in events such as Hyrox and DEKA, specializing in just one coaching niche is no longer enough. Run coaches need to be able to implement functional strength training and strength coaches need to know how to program running workouts for their athletes.

Addressing this need, United Endurance Sports Coaching Academy (UESCA) and sister company Academy of Integrated Human Performance (AIHP) recently partnered to offer the Run + Strength Hybrid Coach Bundle.

“We noticed that more and more people were interested in both strength training and running education to be able to effectively work with the hybrid athlete demographic,” says Rick Prince, founder of UESCA and AIHP. “This certification bundle presents a great opportunity for coaches to be able to work with very motivated individuals and coach them on the multiple fitness aspects.”

With the Run + Strength Hybrid Coach Bundle, two comprehensive coaching certification courses—UESCA’s Running Coach Certification and AIHP’s Integrated Strength and Performance Coach (ISPC) Certification—are now offered together at a discounted cost.

An established leader in endurance coaching education, UESCA provides certification and specialization courses for coaches in running, ultrarunning, cycling, triathlon, and endurance nutrition. AIHP recently launched with its comprehensive science- and evidence-based ISPC certification, seeking to compete with long-standing personal training and strength and performance certifications.

“Our running coach and ISPC certifications, respectively, represent the most science-based and comprehensive content on the market,” says Prince. “Therefore, by combining these two products, a coach will have the requisite education to be able to effectively work with hybrid athletes.”
