The High Fat Diet of an Ultra Runner
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- Running continuously for over 100 miles in mountain terrain takes a different kind of athlete-and a different kind of diet. Through years of training as an ultra runner, Timothy Olson has taught his body to become "fat-adapted," using fat from animals and plants to fuel him through feats that seems superhuman. In this episode of FUEL, we examine how Timothy's food regimen benefits his performance.

This is what I envision a hunter gatherer looked like and performed like 10,000 years ago.
Till they got typhoid, diphtheria, cholera or any of the diseases we only still see in Ripley's believe it or not lol
@@tylerh629 lol these diseases didn't even exist back then. Most hunter gatherers that managed to grow up became 50-70 years old. Their average life span is low simply because 75% of kids died before age 7 (50% at birth and 50% of those survivors before 7), and about half of 7 year olds died before full maturity. Those who actually survived childhood were usually extremely intelligent and fit, and survived to old age even without modern medicine and in a harsch world. They were individually superior to us in every way, but we are ofc collectively superior to them just like a billion ants can form a society more complex than our own was until 200 years ago.
Going to Whole Foods Market and buying all their food.
@@tylerh629 you know, most human diseases we have today didnt emerge until we started farming and having livestock. Paid the price of getting a shit ton of diseases and high child mortality rate for the bonus of being able to sustain a bigger family. Hunter gathering is what we adapted to do for millions of years, farming is like last 10k years maybe.

Dude this guy is like someone on Keto before being on Keto was a thing.
Keto has always been a thing.
@Marissa Lipschutz doctors are retarded. They want you sick to make money off you.
Keto and IF all the way.
@Marissa Lipschutz Actually, they do. In some cases it helps with drug-resistant epilepsy.
@Marissa Lipschutz Why would you listen to an MD about nutrition, unless that was their area of expertise? Ever pay attention to how a typical doctors visit works (assuming you're American)? You sit in the waiting room for about 30 minutes. Then you sit in the doctors office for another 30 minutes. Then the doctor finally comes in, goes through the typical routine, talks to you for a couple minutes and whisks you on your way. Its over within a matter of minutes...
Doctors offices are set up like a freaking box store these days. They take on as many patients as possible and cram them into these short 10-15 minute appointments. Its all about making money. Doctors are extremely overwhelmed by the volume of patients they see in a day.
My point to all this is, I highly doubt your typical MD has adequate time to properly figure out what diets work best for specific patients. They are too busy, they aren't able to be on the cutting edge of nutrition. Thats why imo doctor's recommendations are to be taken with a grain of salt.
They use Coconut oil for sex also. They really like their coconut oil. Lol
B.A.D uhh, yeah.
B.A.D Yeah, dude, coconut oil is the best. It's a shampoo, conditioner, tooth paste, skin moisturizer, and anything else you can think of
Do you use coconut oil for your puffy nipples?
Andrew Tobias what do you think lil dude
B.A.D Actually . . . jokes aside . . .coconut oil is a really good lubricant for sex as well. A lot of lubricants - especially silicone based ones - can cause yeast infections and other not so fun stuff for the vagina. So using coconut oil is not only totally safe in general, but will help with any other "issues" (like yeast infection) that may be going on down there otherwise! It smells nice, tastes nice and is just an all around great product :)
Running a 5k recently gave me way more of an appreciation for pro runners like this dude. I still think anyone who does more than a half marathon is probably insane, but I respect the dedication.

Burns 10,000 calories running, eats a 300 calorie 'recovery' snack
Darude Sandstorm What you said makes no sense whatsoever. It ignores basically every aspect of nutrition and thermodynamic principles. To say "his body doesn't burn calories for energy" is like saying "my car doesn't burn gas for energy". Ingested calories are the single source of energy for humans.... regardless of where they come from.
+Adam Waddington Calories from the fat
Nat Yongpairojwong What do you mean "Calories from Fat"? What does that have to do with anything?
Adam Waddington fat contains more calories than carbs do. I shouldn't have to explaining this to a grown man...
Nat Yongpairojwong You're not understanding my point, at all. How does your comment, "Calories from the fat", have anything to do with my original statement or the rate at which a person's body burns calories? Im aware fat has more calories, but that is completely irrelevant to my point.
This is a Portlandia skit.
"Everything you buy is a vote for what they stock for you"
100 miles?? isnt that like 160km? Thats insane dude
Perhaps not as insane as the 200 or 238 Moab run....lol

@@qthirteen13 I never got people like you. I see it more and more often though, especially over here in Europe with footballers, or 'soccer' as yall refer to - there is a headline such as "Lukkaku scores 5 goals in 23 minutes" - and the whole comment section is full of retards commenting "thats nothing, Lewandowski scored 5 in 9 minutes durrdurrdurr" - just because there are runs that are more intense / insane or the Barkley Marathon, running 100 Miles is no less impressive. I could not do it, and you probably couldn't either. So whats the point of your comment?
@@qthirteen13 that ain't shit dude. Dean karnazes did 350 and the tarahumarans did 435 in 48 hours
This diet is fine, however carbohydrates are needed for higher performing athletes, or running at shorter distances. The rate of beta-oxidation of fatty acids into ATP to be used for energy while running is not sufficient enough to sustain the energy requirements of somebody running a traditional marathon, or any distance, at a faster speed. The rate of glycolysis, the Kreb’s cycle, and the electron transport chain are much faster than beta oxidation, so energy can be made from carbohydrates much faster than it can be made from fats. This is why high level runners eat so many carbohydrates. This diet only works for him because he runs at slower speeds for a very long distance. The slow rate of energy production from beta oxidation is able to keep up with his metabolic demands, and he can tap into the almost infinite storage of energy that are fat deposits in our body.
I think the reason he eats so much fat is because of the calories. Obviously fat is much higher so just being able to get in as much calories with the least amount of food is probably beneficial
Damn he could hatch heaps of eggs easy in Pokemon Go!!!
Yeah but jogging doesn't register
yes it does.
FUCK that stupid game !!!

I've watched numerous episodes of fuel... and I'm curious, do all of these people do these sports full time? I'd love to see an episode where they follow someone who still holds a normal job, maybe a desk job, and see how they eat and workout while simultaneously having to sit for long periods of their day.
As an amateur runner with a full-time desk job, I would love this.

I’ve ran two full marathons and that was very taxing on my body. Anyone who can do ultramarathons and especially in mountainous areas has my utmost respect. I live in the Mississippi Delta so my area is completely flat, I had a brutal awakening last year when I did a few endurance events in Vermont, New York and New Jersey. I also had a very hard time in the mountains in California when I was in the Marine Corps back in the early 2000s; mountainous terrain is no joke.
There are people like myself who thrive in mountain running but suck on concrete. I just hate the repetitive nature of the ladder and there's way too much stuff going on around me like people and traffic. I get tired out of boredom very soon hence my form starts to fall apart and I want to get it done quickly to get out of the stressful environment. Bad combination because it puts me at risk for injury even at shorter distances. But I never had a problem with running in the mountains all day long with lots of ascending, descending, preferably some easy climbing in between to mix things up even more. I'm always amazed by how many people voluntarily run road marathons and finish because I couldn't even do a half marathon in these conditions.
He's using the Ketogenic diet. Surprised it wasn't mentioned.
+Kyle Tucker Actually you can be. That why he said he adapted his body to usimg fat for fuel. Being fat adapted, we have access to about 40,000- 50,000 calories... so that's more than enough to stay fueled. There's a difference between endurance running and sprinting. It's harder to burst into running FAST if your fat adapted, but it's easy to go far. But thats why some keto people do small carb ups before a workout if they need to do power moves.
Absolutely incorrect. I have ultra runner friends who all swear by Keto for their 50-100 mile runs. Ketosis is phenomenal for endurance activities, I love it for snowboarding all day without getting tired. I'm not saying it's for every activity, but for ultra running it's great. If you're a sprinter, power lifter, short distance swimmer,etc, you'd want a high carb diet (explosive movements for short duration). Try doing some research on the topic, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at what you find.
+Bria Thomas spot on
homerun217 - I think you've been fooled by short term studies. Keto is just as good for both. It requires full ket adaption.

This mans diet is setting a solid example for us. Especially if you live in the U.S. He is staying in touch with nature while using natural activities to stay healthy. His mind set in general is so off the beaten path of MAIN Stream, it is actually refreshing. Also how he bounced back from his negative past.
what a beast took the negative aspect of his life his addiction and made it into something amazingly positive. an inspiration for sure
has he ever had trouble with mountain lions or bears. that's what I want to know
I mean if he did he could just run his ass away
I don’t live far from there it’s very very rare to ever see a mountain lion since they are a predator they don’t let themselves be seen and they’re not interested in humans. Bears here don’t attack. Only grizzlies do
Anyone else wondering what they do for money?
***** literally my first question
***** Running actually, i mean be sponsored, win some races and try to market your own image, for example, with this kind of little movies. Well, this is not NBA for sure, but as i'm answering you from the Alps, i can say there is a real audience for "guenuine athlete" (i mean natural as you try to live as you "work", for example by introducing your familly during a shopping session) and ultradistance activities (most of the time in nature) like Thimoty Olson or Anton Krupicka who definitely personify a new approch from competition (more "against" you than the others in few words). But try to understand that trail, as a dedicated market, didn't exist exist maybe 10 years ago so everything is in progress. Maybe like skateboard 20 years ago.
***** he literally runs ultra-marathons for money. he has sponsorships too
-What does he do for MONEY
-rubenSTEIN
***** He is on the payroll of "big fat."
His diet is only expensive because he shops at whole foods
Well where else are the hipsters going to see you shopping, so you can lord over them how much you spend on food?
M Caskey true lol. Can’t be too mad though. He went from drug addict to home owner who shops at Whole Foods.

The items at Whole Foods can be found elsewhere for less money. People just shop there Bc it’s bougee

I was ready to give in... but I don't like losing and that helped me find my way out of a very dark place.... I always enjoyed running, but had never run farther than a marathon. I decided to do an Ultra and it had such a profound impact on my life. Along the way, I had something personal happen to me and was on the precipice, of losing my way again... So I set myself a goal to run the Moab 240 and as the first step, I'm aiming to run the Leadville 100 ir the WS 100 in 2021/22. Your story is exactly what I needed to hear, it has inspired me and I'm very grateful. Thanks for sharing this. #Future Super informative as well - much appreciated!
Where do people get the energy for this shit? I barely motivate myself to lift weights for half an hour after my 10 hour work day.. Then the weekend comes and I just want to relax.
I'm only in my 30's ffs
Dee Jay when you get rid of stress and when you really like to do to something the motivation comes easily.
Dee Jay A major factor may be his previous drug addiction? Extreme running may give him that high and get his mind away from other addictions?
People who are addicted or have been addicted to drugs have addictive personalities. His running is just a healthy addiction. I mean I know people who run 10 miles everyday but running anything over 20 miles just show his dedication, love and addiction. My opinion on this guy
***** There's no such thing as a healthy addiction... By definition an addiction has a negative impact on your life
I did not know that, thank you for the clarification.
I wish videos like these would at least explain what this guy does for a living. Does he have a day job? I would love to go out for a run everyday and shop at whole foods, but you gotta pay the bills somehow... :/
moglagaash he is literally a professional ultrarunner. Money comes from sponsors and competitions.
I'm sure his wife brings a livable income home too, they dont come across as a one sided couple.
Feeling that Dopethrone picture.
get into the fire world. per diem and travel like no other depending on what you wanna do.
I'm doing wildland fire, but they have tons of other jobs if you're interested. We can be out up to 3 weeks 16hrs a day, 2 day rest and recovery then can get called back out. If you can escape the clutches of housing to live with someone nearby, you could rake in a lot of well earned monies to fuel your dreams further of never working in an office.
I’m not knocking anyone here, but one prerequisite I’ve seen of athletes like this is having a spouse they can live off of.
When he said "Who would want to run for 100 miles straight with no sleep?"
I just thought, "My dad."
As a person who has lost a lot of weight on the low carb diet (nearly 60 lbs as of me writing this), Timothy Olson has become one of my heroes. Obviously the diet has worked wonders for me, with respect to fat loss and improving other markers of my health (i.e. fasting glucose, HBA1C, cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, blood pressure, etc.), but I, like many others, have always been dubious about performing at high athletic levels on the diet. Now with elite athletes like Timothy Olson, Lebron James, Kobe Bryant, and Lindsey Vonn using the diet, and with Drs. Stephen Phinney and Jeff Volek research on the diet's efficacy for athletic performance, the myth that you can't perform at high levels on the diet has finally been dispelled.
+Drake Santiago Yeah, that's just wrong. If you are following the diet, sorry to say this but in a recent study all patients who were overweight, lost weight on paleo, but hit a plateau and slowly gained it all back. If you know anything about nutrition you would know the only reason one might lower cholesterol on paleo is if previously they were eating a lot of dairy and meat. Now since animal products are the only foods that contain cholesterol, if you cut out dairy of course you will lower LDL, but it will continue to raise just at a slower pace. You think Kobe and LeBron know shit about nutrition? They know basketball, and that's it. Would I ask a NASCAR driver what phytochemicals are best for my body to prevent cancer? NO! So why take nutritional advice from some basketball players who just do what they are told by some second class Doctors that the meat industry have in their back pocket.
Listen to a real doctor, unbiased, with 1000s of case studies of people he has helped. Dr. Joel Fuhrman. If you want to show strength, be compassionate and stop living your life making excuses as to why you 'have to' eat meat.
+Julian Boyce Wtf are you talking about? This guy is talking about the LCHFHP diet, not Paleo.
Low carb diet what's the difference, seriously. Sounds like you aren't getting enough fibre.
+Julian Boyce Paleo focuses on eating foods that our ancestors used to eat. Back in the hunting and gathering days. LCHFHP focuses on reducing carbs overall, and increasing protein and fat intake. No difference?
yeah, exactly at their roots they are low carb, you said it yourself. Heres a lesson in basic biology, we need carbs as our main energy source. One of the best ultramarathoners in the world, Scott Jurek, holds so many records and hes vegan. This guy in the vid is a no name, no offense to him. If you want to be mediocre, go low carb.
Dude is just like me... Except he runs a couple hundred extra miles. I'm going for 5mi today... But this nature running is the greatest exercise you could ever imagine.
Glad to see he made his life so positive and free. What an inspiration.
Seems like a chill dude.
You’re no suppose to spit out the coconut oil in the sink! Rookie. The coconut oil will harden over time and causes plumbing problems .

Ton of respect to this dude most people are tired after 10 miles but this guy is going 100 mile
Lol 10 miles? Most people are tired after 100 metres.
Great video! This guy seems like a new age hippie to the casual watcher but he really inspired the hell out of me right now; especially how he turned his drug habit around. I also feel like the HFLC diet is right for me and I'm also trying to find an activity that gives me a boost in all other areas of my life.
How do you stay away from leg injuries? Please help. You run so much!
Stretch and alternate workouts. Only go hard twice a week. Also lots of protein tends to help with recovery.
Okay. I asked it because I'm recovering from a knee injury and I used to run for about 3-4 hours per day. Will proper diet suffice such an amount of training?
Warm up thoroughly, stretch, make sure your not to dominate in a particular muscle group, foam roll, rest, eat clean, drink a lot of water.
Nishant Hagjer Take a look at the books Becoming a Supple Leopard, and Ready to Run by Dr Kelly Starrett
thanks! shall check it out!
i love how „over the years i adapted a whole foods based paleo-esc primal diet“
came right after he ate a
chopped up piece of bison vacuum packed into plastic
you can see the pain in his eyes at the end when he says "so good" lmao
You should have a series of different athletes and diets.
Very intriguing!
That's what this whole fuel series is! They've done I think 5 more of these
His live seems so fulfilled. Everything is just perfectly like its supposed to be.
With that name he's Scandinavian, he really looks like a Viking
