My Garmin Fenix 7x Pro is probably the best piece of gear I’ve ever used in terms of helping me stay consistent with my runs and lifts. I love the stats, it has some great daily workout recommendations for my training, and the thing just works for a damn long time without charging.
I have the 7S Sapphire Solar. I don't even use the full capability of the device and it helps tremendously. I needed something small with enough longevity to replace my apple watch, so I could go on long weekend hikes or just runs in general. It fit the bill, probably could have gone with something else ... but I also wanted something I could grow into. Needless to say, the best part about the watch is the morning recap and run pace suggestion. Single best piece about it, imho.
Great podcast! Some of my favourite running gear: Shorts: Nike Dri-FIT Stride 13cm Handheld Water Bottle: Orange Mud 21oz Hydration Pack: Decathlon with 1 Liter bladder and 2 500ml soft flasks Watch: Garmin Forerunner 965 with Garmin chest strap Currently struggling with shoes, as my budget doesn't allow for the shoes I want. So doing 95% of my runs in my Hoka Bondi 8 and my faster sessions/races in Nike Pegasus 40s.
Great podcast. For my easy runs, I actually set up a data screen that only shows total time and heart rate. That way I'm not worried about pace at all, and i'm not speeding up just to meet a certain pace.
My usual run is 7-8km. One of the things I did at first was take my car and measure the distance with the odometer, it was useful. For me, the only special thing I use that is my fuel is headphones with good music (and peanut butter granola bar). Greetings from Uruguay!
My Must-Haves are my Hoka Mach 5s, iWatch (wish I had a Garmin, but this will do) BPN Hat, and sunglasses. I am training for my first Marathon! Of course I got my BPN hat and Supps! These podcasts have been the best to listen too on my runs! KEEP IT UP! G1M.
I’m gonna order some g1m and try that pre run. I usually run fasted around 7am and run 5-8 miles but after hearing you in multiple videos talk about fueling pre training run. I have to try that for sure. Thanks for the awesome content🤘
Love the content Nick, I’ve learned so much from your channel! I’ve got so much more to incorporate into my workouts however what I have implemented has been a game changer….. Thank you 🫡
Thank you for everything you have done for the fitness community the energy you have provided for me and others by just seeing you on a screen is truly incredible you are a legend in my life thank you so much for inspire me and providing resources and knowledge so I can be the best athlete possible love your products thank you for every thing
I love wearing new balance for the wide shoe selection. I have especially enjoyed the Rebel v4 lately. I just purchased $250 worth of Bare Performance Nutrition. Can't wait to try it out.
I found a line of shoes by Newton Running ("Fate" line) that I've been wearing for the last 9 years. A few times the updates gave me some rubbing issues in my Achilles, but they've not really changed anything and they just work. Every time I need new shoes, I buy the previous model year, since they go on sale. I'm on pair number 5 of the Newton Fate 8. THEY JUST WORK! Beware, your calves will take a beating the first time wearing these, but they last for 600-700 miles before breaking down.
Amazing podcast! The more progress I make in my training, the more excited I am to buy my first ever Garmin watch!! Thanks to your review, I have now narrowed it down to the Epix Pro 😊 Can't wait!! Also, I'm looking forward to the Caffeinated GO GEL in my favorite flavor!! The Mixed Berry X Caffeine?! SOLD!!! 🍓🫐⚡
Watch: Garmin forerunner 265 Shoes: Nike invincible 3 as daily training, and easy runs over distance. I keep two pairs in heavy rotation, and get them on sale from Nike for about 120-140 a pair. Retail is normally 180+ Oakley radar path. Nathan hand held water bottle. Gymshark 4inch running shoes, I use these because they have the little split on the side and they’re cheap and decent quality. No point in spending 50+ for Nike and other expensive brands like Lulu. I fuel with BPN’s strong greens, BPN creating, BPN salted watermelon electrolytes and G1M sport. I also rock the Garmin HRM pro plus.
Just started running again, what’s helped me get my ass in gear was signing up for my first marathon. Along with that, my garmin 745, lululemon 5in. Pace breakers, new balance fresh foam x 1080 v13. I’ll be running the Matsuzaka Marathon, apparently they have Matsuzaka Wagyu available at their aid stations 😂. Wish me luck!
I’ve been using LMT however I definitely want to try BPN products. I live in WY and train at altitude Bighorns not much humidity, although I work in south TX 14/14 and also train heavily in TX and the humidity is crazy!! Oh boy do I sweat….. can’t wait to try BPN gels and G1. 💯
I SWEAR by Topo Shoes! The Cyclone 2 for Tempo/Speed and Magnifly 5 for daily trainers are the BEST!!! And their Pursuit 2 for Trails are UNBEATABLE!!!
I just did a sweat test yesterday, and I found out that I've been severely under-fueling when it comes to sodium. This has the potential to be a game changer!
Hi, this is kind of funny. We were just talking about this now. I run an ultra middle list running sandals you know a piece of leather with some straps on it cause I just got tired of all this stuff I didn’t want and then you get the latest one every year and you’re spending $200 on a pair of shoes that last 150 miles or whatever, so that’s when I started running in sandals and roads in for trails sandals have big grip soles on them. They do great but as far as the wash that’s hysterical because I had a coach about a year ago first thing he did first time he met me after I put in my time with him he said OK go out run 10k come back 3K out 3K back and give me your watch before you go And I said well how am I gonna know when the 10K was or how fast I’m going and he says learn how to run and he took away from me and I’d come back and he would say well you ran 8 miles or another time you told me you only ran 4 miles. This is funny. He said you gotta learn how to run because you’re gonna be lost without your watch and he was Mr. anti-technology and everything andfabulous Runner qualified for Boston barefoot but he was minimalist to the core and it was a steal, and I learned a lot from him. I think so he made me go dark and Strava good video.
Speedland shoes, bpn G.M.1 sport w/ electrolytes. Training for a 10miler in 3 weeks, then 30k in September. Im hoping to be able to fly to Austin for my first marathon. We'll see. New runner here. Go one more 💪
Nick you gotta try the Nike Invincible 3 shoes! I don’t think they can be beaten. Personally I use an Apple Watch Ultra with a PolarH10 HR strap. Love the data I get. Along with the Athlytic app to track sleep, recovery, TRIMP, etc.
I was looking at the go gels and I would love to order some , I was curious if you could make a bigger box of mixed flavors so that I have more throughout the week.
I always have a really tough time with trying shoes because stores stop at 13 and I need a 14/14EE. I like lower drop because if I heel strike my back gets mad at me (previous surgery). I’ve worn a lot of altras which are almost wide enough but the upper is too stiff. My go to on the road is the hoka Clifton 9. I haven’t found anything for trails that won’t kill my pinky toe. There aren’t a lot of us but I hope that helps a fellow big foot runner
You’ve inspired me to get a garmin heart rate monitor. Curious if you can use it in the pool and also if it relays data to a phone app if you don’t have the watch?
I was in the middle of my first Austin Half marathon this past year, and my Apple Watch decided it wanted to die / restart on me mid way through, so I was screwed on the data for my first half marathon. It was the most frustrating thing that’s ever happened to me so I feel that pain.
Have you tried calf exercises to strengthen your ankles? I went to Apex in Austin and the chiropractor there has me doing a lot of calf work for my weak ankles
what did you not like about the endorphin speed 4s? i know its personal choice but from most running shoe reviewers they seem to enjoy running in the speed 4s as compared to the 3s

Wondering if BPN products are going to be coming to Canadian stores? I would love to buy supplements from you guys but is it hard to justify paying shipping every time I need to get more protein powder, electrolytes, etc. Like most people I don’t have a ton of extra money to be spending but want to get the best supplements on the market. Even if it was available to purchase on Amazon Canada that would be awesome. I love the brand and hope to be able to support it more down the line. Just got my Go One More hat in last week! First BPN product! And yes I paid shipping for it, but when you purchase something like a hat it is a one time purchase I don’t mind paying shipping. Just a thought, as I am sure that BPN has a lot of Canadian supporters who would love to have easier access to your products!
I went to the cardiologist last year, and started by saying “I know Apple Watches aren’t very accurate but-“ and the doctor interrupted me to say that they actually are pretty accurate for heart rates and that they use them for data often actually. Knowing this, do you still think the chest monitor is necessary? I don’t plan on buying a garmen since I already have an Apple Watch, but idk??
These Epix battery numbers he’s throwing around simply aren’t possible. I’ve had the Epix and now Epix pro and I have to charge them every 4-5 days. And that’s with GPS turned on for an hour and a half or 2 hours max. He’s saying he had it on for 24 hours straight then it still lasted another 2 weeks. Literally no way lol
It absolutely baffles me how Nick still touts the Maffetone method to figure it max aerobic HR. It’s so crazy inaccurate for many many many people. He has a great coach in Jeff Cunningham yet he still talks about Maffetone all the time.
Oh I am right there with you. If my watch isn't charged or I forget it, I just go get it or wait for it to charge. I am almost unhealthy with how much I track but oh well. Whatever keeps me sober and on track for my Ironman.
Shoes: Anything Hoka or Saucony Shorts: Fast and Free Lined or Fast and Free Half Tights / Nike Half Tights Watch: Forerunner 245 is a solid pick for anyone Feetures socks are a must Like if you’re in the no headphones gang

Totally agree with his approach, but I think that if you have the tools for getting better why dont using them

I just got my first pair of speedlands… WOW. What a difference
I love the Saucony Endorphin speed 4! My first saucony pair actually lol
If you like the 4s you would really like the 3s. After wearing 3s I just bought the 4s and in my opinion there’s no comparison. 👍🏻
Nick you gotta try the Nike Invincible 3 shoes! I don’t think they can be beaten.
Personally I use an Apple Watch Ultra with a PolarH10 HR strap. Love the data I get. Along with the Athlytic app to track sleep, recovery, TRIMP, etc.

Have you considered or tried on the Asics Superblasts? If you like the SuperComps I think they could be a pretty great fit for you as a bigger guy.
I've compared my heart rate to my garmin heart rate 10 times and its been dead accurate.
On your garmin watch def try the ultrafit nylon. much better
Will you be putting the functional training workout back on the app before the release of new app?
Have you tried calf exercises to strengthen your ankles? I went to Apex in Austin and the chiropractor there has me doing a lot of calf work for my weak ankles
I have to wear wide shoes, and I can only choose from a limited number of styles! I Wonder which shoe is best for people with wide feet?
We just finished the long run 18.86 miles 3:15:16 10:21 mi pace let’s go one more
Are the new balance’s he’s talking about carbon plated? Had a look online and they all seem to be. Just curious as he said they’re daily use ones.
“Look good, ya feel good. Feel good, ya play good. Play good, they pay good”
-Nick Bare or maybe Deion Sanders
my running watch dying or accidentally ending a workout early or even messing up a run is a constant, anxious nightmare for recording my runs. haha
Is there any smart watch on the market that has a built in speaker in order to listen to music/podcast. While running?
Which bandit tights do you wear?
what did you not like about the endorphin speed 4s? i know its personal choice but from most running shoe reviewers they seem to enjoy running in the speed 4s as compared to the 3s
I wish you could connect different brands of watches to the BPN App. Currently using Samsung watch 5 until i can afford a Garmin watch.

Such waffle, honestly. When to swap out shoes... Having your butt cheeks out. Try to stay on topic at least most of the time.
