I do all my weekday runs fasted, including my threshold and speed workouts, not because I think that it helps me utilize fat, but simply because of time constraint. I do all my runs before work so I need to start at about 6 am, and if I would have breakfast, I would have to get up at 3:30. I need to wait at least two hours between breakfast and the run for it to benefit me. Whenever I don’t have time to wait at least two hours before my weekend long runs, which I don’t do fasted, I end up feeling much worse the 1st hour, compared to running fasted. Doing workouts up to 80 minutes is fine fasted. Any longer than that, I will will start feeling weak. Not recommending it of course, but this works best for me.
Good stuff. I couldn’t agree more with still being able to perform well if you have the lifetime miles built up. Very evident in my CIM race. I probably only averaged 45/wk but still managed a good race.
Great podcast…There’s some troubling screen shots of the brouhaha that probably require some attention if not true - they are so over the top that they’re just not believable.
Great video, but could you aim to look at the camera next time? Not matching the eye line takes away from the connection to the viewer. If you are using an iPhone, looking at the green light does the trick.
Bearing in mind that normal, average runners watch these videos, one of the insights should probably be: don’t do it. Matt is a long-time runner of high standard, who was on the edge of the Australian national team when he was younger. He’s got the lifetime mileage to be able to pull this off. This is not something to be recommended for normal people
Appreciate putting the podcast on youtube. Thanks. Great job finishing CIM under 2:20 once again. 💪💯💪
I enjoyed this, thanks for posting it here 👍And congratulations on your 3 sub 2:20's, that's a fantastic achievement 🙌
Glad these are on UA-cam now as that’s how I digest most content. Fasted easy runs all the way. Lil coffee and a jog
Beautifully refreshing!!! Thanks Matt

Thanks for answering my question Matt!
There's a risk no matter what you do 🎉❤. I agree running for many years put your legs in another level.
another good thing that can be gained from running marathons often is you take away the fear of the distance.

Keep it going, I'm really interested how it goes! And I love doing "stupid" things myself.
Love your work brother!

I've tried reporting the posts, tried contacting staff there, they just remove posts of mine. Rigged game.
Your diet is definitely diverse...
Whats your go to Meal Protein?

Sir, why can't I follow you on Instagram?

Okay he did mention this in the video, about 12 minutes in. Nice one 👍
