@hevizi ah what a perfect location. Porthkerry is stunning too 😍

@@MissRoxyFlower I know I love this route devastated it was closed. I contemplated sneaking through 🤣

@@leerunsultras I've recently been trying to put together a more comprehensive running plan for myself (finally decided it's time to try and improve!). In one of your videos, would you mind talking about why you have chosen 'time' as your long run indicator rather 'distance' for example? I am very much at the start of a long process, and have been basing my ideas off increasing weekly distance (slowly to avoid injury), could time be better for me now or is time better once you have got to the later months of the plan and long runs are loooong anyway? Would love to know your thoughts as an experienced runner, but also ideas for someone starting from a much lower base like myself. Thank you 🤞👍

@MissRoxyFlower yes not a problem i will talk about it tomorrow for you ❤️

@@leerunsultras Amazing thank you so much! I'm probably just overthinking everything at the moment and might be more settled when I'm further into it all, but nice to have any help and advice when possible 😊 Look forward to tomorrow!

@@trailsandbeers you win lol

@@EOINmurphy-d9f appreciate the kind words thabks for watching and taking your time to comment.❤️

@ItsJakeTheBrake mate you need to watch my latest video I'm not going through this again just because I didnt state all other methods of getting max hr doesn't mean this one is wrong

Initially when starting put you need to build a solid base. That said I would recommend. Not introducing hard sessions until you have at least 12 weeks of consistent east running using progressive mileage increase in the long run

@@thereids3625 🤣🤣🤣 I doubt it he will probably still say that 220 - your age isn't a method. Whilst I know it's not very accurate. It's one of the guides that is commonly used 😤

@Jason608 yep your right 220 is just one method of calculating your max hr of which there are many. Outside the lab my favourite is the Cooper test

😂😂😂😂 tamping raging fuming 😤

@st4331 exactly mate I used maf to run a sub 3 marathon. But maf doesn't work for so many people because of fitness levels. Maf heavily depends on high volume. Kavonen is a great method, I've also used the Cooper test using a chest strap to determine my max heart rate. There's so many ways to skin a cat and essentially you have to find what works for you. I guess my message is and always will be that too many people run their easy runs too hard without even realising it. I wish you all the best in your training and thanks for watching and taking time to comment 😊

@@leerunsultras So true, many people still think they need to run hard to improve, yet long runs at Z1/2 are very enjoyable and after some time you find you're running as fast as you were at Z3, at least I did, and so did my son! He's now done a 100k ultra; I'm doing my second 50K in Sept. I never thought I'd be able to run that far, but slowing down has stopped the injuries and massively improved my endurance! MAF meant walking when I first started; people, need to give it time.

​@st4331 that's amazing I still have to walk sometimes. Yes I may post all my maf rest results because in 6 months I went from an 11 min mile to a sub 8 min mile at the same heart rate ❤

@@leerunsultras That's excellent, amazing improvement in 6 months. Results just keep improving with time. I do an 8km MAF test once a month and I averaged 6m32s/km in June and it was 36C, but that's after 2 years!

Wasn't available for me when I bought it unfortunately. What do you think of altars as I have never wore them

​@@leerunsultras I've been using Altras for about 6 years now and lately their line-up is quite a mess. Uppers don't last over a few hundred kms; Foot box volume changes between versions of the same shoe; Rubber grip is inconsistent between models. Right now I'm leaning more towards Hoka and Topo Athletic as their shoes seem to last longer than most Altras. BUT one model from Altra I will probably try in the near future is the Timp 5. I feel like it's their best model, and the 5th edition has Vibram rubber so I think it has potential.

@@lmbraga I'm seeing more and more topo. May have to have a look

@@leerunsultrastopo’s are fab. I have both the Ultraventure 3s and the Mtn Racer 3s. Both really comfy and tough 👍🏼

@patmone922 yep I have every book you can imagine 💪 training what works for you

Obviously not everyone is the same. But maf is 180 minus your age. There's no disputing that.

Calling Me stupid when that's what's been done forever

@@leerunsultras I don't call you stupid, I don't know you. I call stupid this particular way of calculation. Forever, really? People didn't know nothing about zone 2 until recently. And 220-age is nothing more than medical precautions for people to stay safe when training. It has zero physiological base. Whereas ventilatory threshold have solid evidence of being key pillars to plan training around

@haymie94 I agree there's been huge advancement in lactate training and threshold. But the fact still stands that this method is still used and taught. I don't use it myself as I have had a lab test and know that my max is 188 despite being 39. The problem is, because somebody thinks one method is more advanced than an another. That the other method should not exist. When in fact it does. What ever training method or zone method you chose as long as it works for you. Who really cares

@@leerunsultras Just wrong. Now that we have GPS we have to stop using stars for navigation. Period. Good old talk test is way more relevant for finding zone 2 than max HR approach. And your lab test is useless because it's not your maximum heart rate. In certain circumstances you'll be able to achieve a higher value. For example during a half marathon when weather is getting hot. If you have enough fuel in the tank you'll drive your heart 5-10 beats higher by the end of the race

@@haymie94 Exactly this. I've tried to explain to people so many times that Max HR is an essentially mechanical limit that is more or less untrainable. All of the thresholds are primarily products of metabolic function and are all trainable. The only "threshold" type measure that relates to Max HR is VO2 Max, but in practice that is as much limited by stroke volume (slightly trainable) as it is by Max HR. When % this or % that is quoted, what it means is; approximately, more or less, maybe, possibly there or there abouts. If people want to invest time and effort basing their training on that, crack on and good luck!

Yes buddy

Yes mate these people really wind me up when they don't know what zone 2 is 😂😂😂😂

Im going g to mate 100% my mate nath won the 200 in them

Thanks mate 😊

@emilosification that's exactly what it is though between 60 and 70 % of your max heart rate. Or if you want to use max heart rate - resting heart rate. It all depends on what zones you are using.

@@leerunsultras it really isn't. Zone 2 is at ventilatory threshold (easy talk test) which sits little below 80% max heart rate. So your MAF is 180-39 = 141, and your zone 2 is 180*0.8 = 144. All rough calculations

@emilosification no its not 80% I zone 3 il explain in today's video just so you understand

​@@bmp713no they don't zone two is 60-70. 😅 80% is threshold ffs

160 zone 2 😳

@@hevizi spot on

@leerunsultras he's excellent. He's got some great content out there.

Yes defo​@@hevizi

Lt 1 and Lt 2 are being bounded around as if that is a new theory. The reason I used the 220 method is because zone 2 is done off your maximum heart rate. And the only way to get an accurate reading is by going to a lab. Problem is there is many ways of getting your zones. Whether that's max heart rate - resting heart rate. Whether it's lactate threshold.

So in short the most common way to find zone 2 is taken from your maximum heart rate. Then multiply by 0.60 and 0.70

@@leerunsultras the 220 - age does not work with me. With that equation it would be 175 but I've done a max HR test by running and found out that it is much higher.

@@kahlis like .i said the best way to determine max hr is a lab test. 220 is a guide

@@leerunsultras sorry, I missed that. I agree that things should be measured. How do you feel about other methods like the Karvonen Method of determining zones?

Thanks for commenting it is heavily dependent on the duration and intensity of the exercise. Personally anything over 90 mins then I need to eat. And if I am in an ultra marathon then I will use a carbed drink along with real foods

Haha that's amazing yes it's the maverick terrex

Ah mega thabks for commenting mate i actually bought it 2 years ago. When we spoke about you coming g 9n the podcast It made me win an ultra I. 2022. I start properly on 29th July just trying to get the volume in.

Problem is to run fat adapted you have to be keto and I rely on carbs pretty much mate

Truth when I was here last and I was running smackhead stopped me and asked me for 38p

Stitch city 🤣🤣🤣

Done for the day

I've been at it over 20 years 😂

Hi there! Could you link to that stuff online, that says you shouldn't run fasted? I would like to read more about it.

@romaniancraftbeerreviews407 I never said you shouldn't do it i spent 20 years in the army and done pt Fasted every morning

@@leerunsultras Sorry for that! :) I actually meant asking @danphillips5456, but apparently I failed at that. Again, sorry for the confusion. I am always curious to read information on things I consider interesting, hence my question. I like exercising fasted, and I do agree with your points on elevated HR after eating and later on the day. It's something that happens to me as well. I've tried eating and then going oput for a run after a couple of hours, and it's just not for me. It must be the way my body functions, my form, body compositon, etc. etc., so I stick to fasted running.

1710m over the 100km not too bad pigum was that over 30 miles

@@leerunsultras yeah but its sharp climbs. I did jurassic coast challenge back in March which was ~80mi over three days.

Im sure il find out whenni gey to recce it 😂😂😂​@lloydwatkin

awesome mate, just take your time and enjoy the race

as long you keep the marathon specific speed training then you will be all good.
