Though jumping rope got me into fitness, I've since moved to running as my main form of fitness-either in barefoot-style huarache sandals or actually barefoot. The two activities, jumping rope and running, really go hand in hand. Jump roping is probably the best means of developing good form and endurance for running longer distances. It's nice to see the proof in this pudding in the form of Mayweather's training!
Hey Ken, good to hear from you again. That's great you've come to enjoy running and benefit from it and jumping rope. I've made videos on the complementary nature of running and jumping rope. Here's one which you might like: ua-cam.com/video/jnnGwF-QC3c/v-deo.html&ab_channel=TheWayoftheJumpRope
@@Gregperkinsyo My favorite barefoot running surface is smooth concrete, such as sidewalks. I like to run in the city barefoot, but there's too much of a risk of stepping in broken glass, loose nails, and the like. But running barefoot is incredible because it forces you to run with good light and quick form - with a good mid-foot (or whole foot) landing over your pelvis (not out in front of you). Modern running shoes allow you to pound your heels into the ground, which sends shock forces up your shins, knees, hips, back, and even your neck. Running barefoot, however, doesn't allow you to do that because you feel what's "wrong" immediately and you can adjust on the fly because it becomes a trip to the podiatrist, etc.. But START SLOW!

I ran 6-7 miles religiously Monday-Friday, Saturday off, and Sunday would be half-marathon or marathon runs for me. You simply don't get tired from building up your VO2.
@@AlphaKingsabsolutely, but once your in optimal shape you don't get tired and could just go. When I was training daily I could honestly run for 3-4 hours non stop with no fatigue, just stopped to refuel and hydrate. It's a constant thing though.
That's crazy he's fitness is extreme I would keep up for the first mile but then would fall behind. maintaining a 5.30 per mile is amazing which does explain why he is the best
@@wesleytwiggs7687 indeed but from a visual perspective it looks like nothing. If you see his boxing matches he makes them look easy but as a former competitor its far from easy.
Yah I disliked his in ring tactics, turning the back, holding, etc, but I don’t have anything but respect for how he got there and his directness of approach. That gym would have him doing full on fights with unlimited rounds till someone got kod. That sort of immediate situation very quickly cuts fluff and makes a person to do whatever it takes to win vs doing it for the fans or whatever other abstract thing. It’s extremely rare a guy stays disciplined/hungry as he continued to do in his career despite being the best.
Regardless of what anybody thinks or views him, He earned all the success in his life anybody can be great you just gotta bust your ass and make the right Sacrifices

I’m a big fan of Floyd, trust me Floyd don’t run as fast as people thinks he does, this might even sound silly but he don’t even know himself, I saw a video one time over the last year with him on the treadmill and he points at it and says “Look 2 miles in 12 minutes” I screen shotted it to look at his treadmill settings because I wanted to eventually mimic it but when I looked at the treadmill screen it was actually 2 kilometres not miles, so he was actually running at a 9 minute a mile pace. When you watch his running videos he is usually going at a slow zone 2 cruising pace but he just does a lot of miles which explains why he runs so much because he’s not going at burn out paces
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing. Good things, Andrew P.S. If you enjoy jumping rope and reading uplifting stories, you might enjoy my book: amzn.to/40RyPLt
Guys fall in live with knocking out their opponents creats that, I believe, why run when I ko people in 4 rounds, the first time it works is where they lose in the end, like il do that again 😅
He is probably capable of running 5.5 minute miles but he isn’t r keeping that pace in any of these videos, nor is he keeping that pace for 5-8 mile runs
i was gonna say damn that's hard to do but then i thought about it and like yea its hard when you work and study but if this was my source of income then of course id be doing that full time like a regular job. staying fit is literally his job so i dont see whats the big deal. whats amazing is that he never lost his love for the sport even after winning millions
Well then u do it why not he makes millions right this is clearly just an excuse u think he didint have to have a sourse of income while coming up his family is trainers but they werent rich
@@Aydenkaye maybe im not good at explaining things, maybe i didn't make myself clear, maybe you missed the point, or maybe you're an idiot. But i guess what im trying to say is him waking up early in the morning to go for a run is no different than someone getting up at that exact same time to go to their regular 8 hour shift or when he goes for a run after a party is no different than going to work right out of a cookout with the homies. its the same shit in a different toilet, just being in shape is basically his profession
Now imagine, a heavyweight who ran the Same amount of miles. A heavyweight who was one of the shortest heavyweights with one of the shortest reach ran this amount and still managed to weigh in at the weight of a heavyweight while running the same amount of miles as Floyd. That fighter would be Rocky Marciano. He ran like Floyd, and punched a 300 pound Heavy Bag that only the likes of George Foreman would duplicate in training.
@@kugelgoat overall, I think Mayweather fought a very cautious fight against Pacquiao. And I am being generous in using the word “cautious,” because it would be easy to say he fought scared. But there are two problems with your response. First, I asked for one round other than the 11th or 12th round. I made that request so that I could look at an actual round and determine whether I think he is “running” or not. No one ever gives a round of a fight when I ask them to do so. Second, because no one ever gives a round, I am left to conclude that those who call Mayweather a runner probably think that everything other than standing in front of your opponent and taking punches while throwing your own is running.
Why doesn’t the opponent get better at boxing and cut off the ring? Do the opponents suck that much that they can’t cut off a tiny ring? 😂 btw Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard ran 10x more than Floyd ever did. I bet you never complain about them and I bet you are a fanboy who thinks Ali is the greatest or something along those lines
Every human should be able to run 5-8 miles at a decent pace. If that’s mind blowing to you you have problems and probably need to get out there and go for a jog. His conditioning comes from those runs plus all the other shit he does. Sparring, bag work, weight room, etc.
You are new to boxing huh? Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard “ran” way more than Mayweather Jr. ever did but I can guarantee you have never said that about them. It’s because it is boxing, hit and not get hit. It’s not a brawl or a street fight. He must have destroyed your favorite boxer huh? 😂😂😂😂 sucks for you.
@@James_Edward59are you sure about them running more??? Their trainer was Angelo Dundee and he had a saying, he trains boxers, not runners. He was against his boxers running too much. Try again, you posturing "expert"

facts, it seemed like no matter what round it was or how tough the fight was floyd always had gas in the tank and always looked sharp🔥
NEVER!!! Man can box for days!!!
Beautiful running form
That was my 1st initial thought
Very smooth, I feel like my skeleton is made of metal when I run , it’s rough
I ran 6-7 miles religiously Monday-Friday, Saturday off, and Sunday would be half-marathon or marathon runs for me. You simply don't get tired from building up your VO2.
Agreed. The long run is great for mental strength too.
And I bet you run slow as fucccck

@@KawasakiKMX dude you got some extreme fitness to be running a 4.3👏🏿👏🏿👍🏿
@@Arstar2405 4.3 mph right? That's an average speed according to Google nothing that impressive
@@Arstar2405 he meant mph lol
Mayweather is not running 5:30 pace in any of these clips, not a chance!
I saw floyd running in vegas one time. His cadence was crazy at least 180-200 plus a min 3 miles in. He could run a marathon like nothing.
100 step a minute cadence is slow most runners hit 180
@@RossKempOnYourMum01 😆 🤣 😂 I thought I put 180 to 200.
Marathons are different dude. After about 16 miles your body starts to do crazy things. Maybe he could but to say “like nothing” is just untrue.
@@wesleytwiggs7687 indeed but from a visual perspective it looks like nothing. If you see his boxing matches he makes them look easy but as a former competitor its far from easy.
80-100 cadence is mad slow for anybody lol

Regardless of what anybody thinks or views him,
He earned all the success in his life anybody can be great you just gotta bust your ass and make the right Sacrifices
It's the reason why during the 12th round, he'd still seem energetic while the opponent seems worn out.
that prayers and belief part hit home.
Thats why you are legend sir! 🙏🏼

His running form is perfect
Form doesn’t matter too much when you’re not going for speed.
@@wesleytwiggs7687It actually does when you're running multiple miles everday
Bad form will get you injured
@@wesleytwiggs7687 it actually matters a whole lot, the best endurance runners in the world have phenomenal form and waste minimal energy
He should go run with David Goggins
Hes the perfect combination of god givin talent and an undeniable work ethic

5 and 1/2 minute mile is crazy
Pretty easy actually
A lot of great stuff, I am always waiting for more. I send you a short E-mail :) Best, Wiktor.
Thanks Wiktor!
And so many idiots these days tell us the roadwork is unecessary!
Running sure is great for conditioning.
Roadwork is crucial. Don’t listen to the clowns who say otherwise.

He always had great pace running the same everytime
#YouAlreadyKnow💪🎯 sent email to the gym today 💯 awaiting dat call 🤙 I may stop by the gym tomorrow 😎👌👁️👂👊
Well well wel
It was a lifestyle not something he just did in training camp
Gervonta behind him too
I am not going to lie I run a lot but it’s the only thing I procrastinate before doing it it’s not fun running ain’t fun not for me
How long does he run in the ring?
He never has to, he sits in the middle of the ring and makes his opponents miss while he punishes them. What boxer do you fanboy over that he beat? 😂
He runs fast when the cops are behind him
Brk would run home from the clubs too
CATCH UP TANK 😂
That was crazy
thats great. now do u have any information on his woman-beating activities?
Ben from fight hype the original cheerleader, man would say wow if he was watching Floyd butter bread lol
LMFAO What favorite boxer of yours did Floyd embarrass? 😂
He sure did a good job running away from Paquiao until the end of his career
He’s older than manny paquiao dummy🤣🤣
