    how do you manage your rest periods when you are working out so much? do you see any strength gains when you exert so much energy between running and weight lifting? how does your periodization look like- like you run 3 times a week or do you not run on weight training days?

    • @FoltzFitness
      @FoltzFitness 5 місяців тому

      Recovery is huge! The biggest things I do to ensure I’m recovering is making sure I get at least 7-8 hours of sleeper every night. This is vital for performance, recovery, and injury prevention. The second thing is ensuring you’re eating enough to fuel your workouts, most endurance athletes are under fueled. Lastly, I’m always doing some stretching and foam rolling every evening to ensure I’m staying loose and injury free. I always take 1 full rest day per week. In regards to my running and strength training plan, we have a video coming out on Friday morning that explains my training split and how I’m implementing both running and lifting. Be sure to check that out on Friday!

      I used to think the same thing! I enjoy it because it’s a way to challenge myself daily and I love seeing what I’m capable of when it comes to distance, paces, etc. when you get into running a lot you realize that you are a lot more capable than you think! That’s what keeps me pushing each day. I love seeing slow progress because of consistent behaviors overtime. Not to mention, the running community has some of the most kind and genuine people in it!

      I’m a fan of the Nike Zegama’s. That’s what I’ve ran the most in. I’ve raced in the original Zegama’s which is what I’m wearing during this session. I just picked up a pair of the Zegama 2’s which is what I plan to race this 50 miler in assuming I break them in with no issues. I’ve tried Speedlands and the Nike wildhorses and I prefer the Zegama’s over those. Those are the only 3 I’ve had experience with but would highly recommend the Zegama’s. I almost picked up a pair of Hoka challengers but opted for the Zegama 2’s. What’s your experience with the speed-goats?

The supplements work and are proven. I do agree that you can use food as I do in this video. However, pairing these supplements with food can enhance your training sessions. Not to mention the convenience factor of gels when trying to take in fuel while running. Make sure you try something and are informed before you make a comment like this. Again, I’m not affiliated with BPN in any capacity, just know that they enhance my training sessions with clean fuel.

      I’m a huge fan of G1M, it’s so quick and convenient fuel for my everyday runs. It gives me quick digesting carbohydrates and it has a full electrolyte profile to help support hydration. It can also be used during runs for fuel/ hydration support as well. If you’re on a tight budget I’d suggest going with G1M over the GO gels for now. The gels are much more convenient for mid run fuel but I believe you’ll see more benefits from G1M as of now with the hydration support and carbohydrate supply it has. It’s also super easy on the stomach and I never have any issues with it. I believe it’s worth it for quick fuel and hydration support. Hope your marathon prep is going well! Keep up the good work! 🔥
