@@JackGilbertJr Still building mileage. Ran into some health issues that’s slowing down progression at the moment. Averaging 15-20 miles a week and strength training. How’s your prep going?
Reached my longest run this week of 17 miles. Nick, I’ve taken your advice of not increasing distance more than 10% week over week. And so far it’s worked great!! Feeling good, no injury yet! I’m not training for a marathon, just enjoying the process of increasing my ability to run further. Your videos and sups have been helping me tremendously throughout the way, so thank you for that!
That's awesome! It's not really "his" it's a combination of years of coaches that's now mainstream running knowledge, but 100% I've tried going more and always got injured.
i got in the best shape of my life by working out at a slow and steady pace for a year straight(besides going 100% game day here and there). i didn't even mean too it was just kind of instinct but hearing you say to do that makes sense why i was able to workout for so long and eventually gain almost infinite endurance in that time. i've since lost my way and always go 100% and have never been in as good of shape as i was then and i'm pretty sure that's the main reason. i need to build up that steady pace foundation
This is great. I ran in college 10 years ago and got burned out. I recently picked it back up and running my first half marathon on Nov 11. Been listening to a lot of the material. Thank you for this!
shoving off 1h30min from your marathon is just a world Guinness record. By the way my best time in Marathon is also 2h48 min in El Paso Texas. I remember making a huge mistake by clocking 1 hour 17 min in the first half and then dying out at mile 18. Big advice run your first half easy or you will hit the wall at the end.
That’s what Hal Higdon says. Start slow. He also describes a marathon as having two halves: the first half is 20 miles and the second half is 6.2 miles long. He’s getting at what you are talking about, it’s harder at the end and you need to start slow to be able to avoid that wall from breaking you.
Nick explains things in such a simple and understanding way! I rather watch short video with detailed and simple explanation than long and just going round and round and never really getting to the point. Thank you Nick for this valuable info.
Awesome Thank you! I’m doing my 3rd marathon in Jersey City April 2024 My first 2 was #1 Thankful But also awful. I wasn’t in a good place & had to heal internally.

I have watched so much of your stuff and I don’t think I’ve seen you ever really push your product in 99% of the videos. You guys show people how to build a healthy lifestyle not sell people and I have signed up for all your stuff because if it. Looking forward to getting some BPN and using it !!
I'm so grateful and stoked that I found this guy. I'm definitely on the right path. I'm learning things that I need and want to learn that fit my goals short and long term. A foundation that works is exactly what I need. I'm in terrible running shape. Just terrible. I'm in the right place with this Nick guy. My budget doesn't exactly allow the food intake I need, but I will make it work. Thank you, Nick. I love all your stuff! GO ONE MORE!
This is the best video on running advice I’ve seen for normie runners who are just starting out. I like that his advice is very practical. I’ve been a runner off/on for over 10 years. I’ve had 6 babies within that time frame so I’ve had to “start over” with my running journey many times. His advice about building endurance or a running base before attempting to do speed work is 💯. I also like that he said a lot of knowing what your max heart rate is and lactate threshold is by feel. That’s difficult for very new runners but is easy to go by once you are consistent. At least for the casual runners like me who just want to maintain an ideal fitness level. The point being, you don’t need a bunch of fancy gadgets - just get out there, run, and be consistent.

Hey man. Listening to this months ago really helped me on my first marathon (NYC 2 weeks ago). I got a 3:51 which is ok but I admittedly just focused on enjoying the moment. Now I'm looking to qualify for Boston at 50 years old which means I have to drop 30 minutes off that time. (3:20 for 50 year old men). I thought you were out of you mind with the carb intake ahead of long runs. It's really real and also you are the 1st person I ever heard use the term "Hybrid Training" but it really resonates with me. I'd love to interview you some day. Big fan.
In the end it’s just you and pain and how much you are willing to apply yourself in that equation And overtime learning where your edges are to keep yourself pushing through those pain barriers
The running gear/workout gear question is always last for me. I usually think about it like this, 100 years ago there were dudes who ran faster than me longer, with suboptimal shoes, clothes, and electronics.
This dude is like the Dr Mike of cardio gains / man if you see this comment thanks for your tips - these past months I’ve gone from being a total non-runner to doing my best 5K yesterday at 27:30 (probably not that good compared to other people but it’s like 50% faster from where I started 😂)

Dude, you are a spirit animal to those who like lifting and picking up some size but also want to have some cardiovascular dominance when confronted with a sable tooth tiger. Keep it up, enjoyed this podcast.
Great advice! Speaking truth here. Everything you said in this video is what I tell everyone who asks me how do I get better at running. I will refer everyone I know to this video. Thank you 🙏
Some good advice. For the last few months I've been following your channel and have thoroughly enjoyed your content. I just told my girlfriend that I give a lot of my new found interest in Hybrid Training to you. Before your channel, I had never even heard of the term. I've been weight training for YEARS, but never combined it with running. I'm a 20 year retired veteran, you ask anyone I worked with, I HATED running. Been at it now for over 2 years and love what it's done for me and my life. Looking at doing Triathlon events next year. Your tips are something that have helped along the way.
Thanks! Great stuff here! You should put your quote on “Endurance” on T-shirts, (if you haven’t already) I really like it! I would definitely buy one or two to wear on race day!
Sometimes I feel like I focus on the miles too much. I should just go out and run here, run there, find a different road or terrain for once. So I'm gonna go on an all day run, and I won't know how many miles I get.
Last year I did a full marathon without training . Did 4:26 This year it’s in two weeks “trained “ for 4 weeks and 2 days ago I ran a half marathon slower and my legs were killing me to stop. Full marathon in 2 weeks , let’s see how it goes
So macros at currently around 24% 19% 57% P.F.C, I’m currently on 50.20.30 covering around 50miles a week. Works a treat, looking at going to 60 soon so may change mine to mirror yours and see how it goes. Thanks for the sound advice
Great tips man. I think nutrition is greatly overlooked and most people dint understand how to eat with purpose. Its a skill that has to be learnd but what comes first is having consistent training. Then you can start experimenting with how foods effect you. But the emphasis needs to be on training with food beeing the driver of training and development/performance. But again dont loose sight of your training through your nutrition. Carbs should be strategically incorporated relevant to your training goals. Otherwise just stick with a ketogenic diet and progress into carbs later on ones you get to grips with a few things. Great tips man really enjoyed the video...
Fuel for a run and nutrition are two different things. It’s like comparing putting gas in your car to changing oil regularly. Fuel for a run is like gas for the car. How many carbs to finish today’s run? Vs does your car have the oil to keep the pistons from wearing out? Nutrition is the oil your body needs to function without breaking down over time, but nutrition isn’t the same as fuel to finish a daily run
Nick, great to see you being successful after ETSing out of the Army in 2017. I remember seeing you back in early 2016 in Camp Casey where you were working out at Hanson gym. I believe you were with the 2-7? But today, most unit at Camp Casey left for Humphrey or got deactivated and only 2-10 is left along with 9 month CONUS rotation to Camp Hovey.
I'm new to running. 180 - my age?! Im 60, and you are saying that my heart rate shouldn't go above 120? If thats true then Im not running at all. I'm walking. That can't be. Im on my feet a lot at my job. Im walking between 7 and 10 miles daily, at work. I run a mile several times a week at what I consider a slow pace at about 11 minute mile. My heart rate is between 140 and 160 at that pace. I try not to go above 160 to often but if im feeling good I'll run at a faster pace depending on how I feel and my heart rate can reach 175 and I'll maintain that pace as long as I'm breathing easy. My question is, will my heart rate lower/improve as I continue to run several times a week? (My resting heart rate is around 55 bpm) Any advise is welcomed.
Hey, I just basically answered your call to another person, so I allow myself to copy-paste that for you here: That used to be me. All my Cardio was high intensity (160+) on top of weightlifting in circuit style... basically always redlining... That means your metabolism has a tendency to carbohydrates. You can improve your bodys ability to metabolise fat with spending more time in Zone2. If you struggle keeping the HR down, try walking on a treadmill. Choose a cadence comfortable to you and adjust the incline to produce a steady HR of 120-130 and stay there. Soon you'll notice your heart rate coming down and you can either increase the incline or try a steady light jog. RN I can finally run outside and keep my HR at ~130 😊
great tips there. just want to say something about strength training to get faster. those 11-13 year old kids running 16min 5k and 33min 10k can't be stronger than adult runners who are running a lot slower. i think strength training is good but not really that important to run faster. i abandoned lifting altogether and replaced it with all out hill sprints
Strength training doesn't make you faster correct. What it does is make you more durable. Less likely to break. Less likely to get injured. Which equates to consistency as you aren't taking months off to injuries, which makes u faster. Core strength directly makes you faster. It gives you greater biomecchanic efficiency throughout the running motion.
Any carnivores here that have experience in ultra events? I’m 58 and eat a meat, eggs and some fish diet. I recently did an 18.2 mile ruck (45lbs) on this diet, but I’m considering a marathon (no ruck).
Great video thanks for those blocks! I wanted to know before you’re first marathon how much running we’re you doing? (Weekly mileage). And also how much did you run in the military while serving?
Normal everyday runs won't be long enough to worry about eating before a run in the morning. What you ate for dinner will be plenty and you'll feel better running on an empty stomach anyway. Just eat a normal high protein breakfast when you get back.
How do you deal with overuse injuries while not getting out of shape? I had increased my mileage maybe a little too soon. I’m dealing with a achilles tendonpathy. I decreased my mileage and switched over to the bike but it doesn’t seem like I will be back to running anytime soon. Any advice ???
180 minus my age 61 is 119. I don't have 10 hours a day to make that challenging. I do 1 hour every morning 150 to 170 with a max near 185. And I'm 6 months past heart surgery. 225 to 250 grams of protein a day. Your kidneys will be dysfunctional by the time your 50. Good luck.
Slow and steady isn't supposed to be challenging. If you struggle to keep the HR down, try incline walking. Protein intake isn't a concern for healthy kidneys and good Hydration. The mentioned 225g are about 1g/lbs bodyweight and therefore moderate when it comes to athletes. Studies tried thrice as much and didn't see detrimental effects (but not much benefit either) Sure, the kidneys have to work - but that's what they're for...
When he started addressing some of the common questions people have I was like, “holy shit he’s going to talk about steroids!!” And then he didn’t. I guess he’s not ready to discuss it yet. Someday he will
I’m hoping you see this comment as this video is several months old. I’m training for police academy and I have never been a runner whatsoever. I have a times 1.5 mile run and I keep dealing with tight claves and shin splints. I feel so lost on where to start, how much to run ect. I absolutely love running but these injuries just destroy any progress I have made. Any tips?
What is your height and weight? Make sure food is decent and electrolytes are in you. I'm not nick, but start small. Start with walking, start with biking. Work your way up slowly. Maybe even do jumping Jack's to improve your ankle strength. Ice your body parts that ache. Foam roll everyday and multiple times a day. Use a massage gun if you have one. This helps recovery a lot. If you're just starting.... don't sweat it, that's just how it goes at first. All that matters is that you keep doing it. Been a cop for 6 years, you'll be fine brother, good luck!
There is some good advice here. But I believe you should consider that nutrition and fuel isn't as "controllable" as you perceive. Some people can't afford milk from the farmers market or supplements as they are extremely expensive. Some people have families and are struggling just to put PB&Js or Ramen on the table. So, no, it's not controllable for most people. Especially right now, because people that have regular jobs can't control the economy, real estate market, inflation, etc.
It never fails for someone to come into the comment section with a weak mindset and excuses. The point is, no matter where you start, you can improve and get better. Stay Hard.
Look yes there definitely are variables you can’t control, but if you just look at it like “can’t control it so shouldn’t try” then that’s not going to get you anywhere. Control what you can, and do your best results will come.
Definitely basic to start running, many things you can do to improve, but one thing I would highly recommend is to get stryd foot pod, running with power instead of the old HR method,immediately feedback during the run.
Running and training for long distance races is a luxury. If you don't have the ability to control your nutrition and fuel then you do what you can in your budget. I think OP missing the point here
I started this in Nov 1 2023😂, more on my apt workingout, watching videos about calesthenics, been doing it daily 5x a week, then i decided to start jogging on weekends because of my schedule. 😅 Guess what, running is really working out on me as a beginner last december ive run total of 100km. Today I run 8km 47 mins 7 mins pacing. Noticed my shoes is no longer responsive plannijg to run more miles without as early as 30mins my angkles would hurt. Maybe any one can share any shoe would be advisable to me now since im planning to run more mile, nike tanjun was my first running shoes😅✌️✌️
That used to be me. All my Cardio was high intensity (160+) on top of weightlifting in circuit style... basically always redlining... That means your metabolism has a tendency to carbohydrates. You can improve your bodys ability to metabolise fat with spending more time in Zone2. If you struggle keeping the HR down, try walking on a treadmill.

Do zone 2 training bro . If you aren’t used to running outside start slow. As stated in the podcast 80:20 rule You make your own rules and how comfortable it will be. Depends how far out your 10 k race is but you can go from running 5 miles a week comfortably while still getting gym work outs. To running 17 miles a week 6 weeks later comfortably. Just don’t ramp up to quick or you will hurt your self To eventually
Just mix it up. Do like one 10k run per week in Zone 2 (easy). Do 1 Fast 5k per week.(you can run/walk or at race pace) Do 2 slow zone 2 5ks. So that's like 4 runs a week. Start there.
The more days a week and miles you can run (easy) the faster you will get at nearly any distance besides a sprint. I am up to 70 plus mile weeks and making great progress.
Slow running heart rate training doesn't work well for older runners because even a very slow jog after about a mile will exceed your max aerobic heart rate
Great podcast thanks. I'm curious if anyone knows - Nick ran a 4:15 marathon in 2019 and a 18:29 5k a year later. I'm amazed at that progress in that time frame. Does anyone know what specifically he did (weight loss aside)? This is pre Jeff.C days and my understanding was there wasn't much structure to Nick's training.
He did a lot of track workouts doing different types of running sprints and other long distance things the other thing he did was focus on his diet you have to put the right fuel in your body if you want to perform at high levels
Hey Nick I want to get into MAF training but I'm concerned that means I can't do any speed work at all. Would it work if I did MAF style training 3-4 days a week and supplement it with speed work tempos, intervals, or strides for 2 or even just 1 day in the week?
MAF method start working after at least 40 minutes when body switch to use fat as primary energy source. You need to learn body to use fat as primary as much as possible. So it mean long runs 1-2hours is basic. Without these long endurance trainings MAF method wont work, and your endurance will remain same.
Exactly. If your not hitting either higher frequency or longer duration your best bet to increase function is to draw it upward via higher intensity workouts. But if you can get the frequency or longer duration workouts then MAF is excellent.
A lot of things really. Endurance, mentally and physically. Running long distances whether for marathon or not is a testament to staying consistent and disciplined. For people like myself, I hate running, but I know by doing hard things makes you become more resilient. if you look at running longer in the perspective of why do long distance exercise (cycling, swimming, etc) the answer can be found in cardiovascular fitness and health. Certainly 100 mile races may surpass the idea of “working out for health” but long aerobic training aka low HR training improves the efficiency of your heart which can have a impact on general health, fat loss and I’d even say enhance quality of life. That said, I’m assuming that if you’re asking this question, you don’t do any type of long distance running/endurance training - which is absolutely fine - but to “get it” you’d have to try it. This mentality isn’t built from watching a video but from enduring the elements day in and day out for something like a marathon prep. I hope this helps! Happy running!
That thought literally never crossed my mind. I thought it was a great episode. Mad golden nuggets. I had to go back and listen again cause there was so much info, I missed a few nuggets!!
This is a confusing comment. Care to explain what you mean by that? How does the tips not work? Just trying to understand what experiences you have to back this statement?

My first 2 was #1 Thankful But also awful. I wasn’t in a good place & had to heal internally. I’m now able to focus on my running for the first time in a few years. I’m researching and finding info on how to run my best marathon. I really consider this Race my first marathon if that makes sense. I’m turning off any & all outside noise all together, loving my solo journey
I’m running more now cross training with Boxing & adding in bike miles as well. Pre Covid I was running half marathons in 1:52-1:54
I’m leaning out through kickboxing which Is also getting me stronger which in return has lowered my HR. Hillz are getting easier. My anxiety/ OCD has decreased.
I Ran MCM full 4:52 which I should have ran better
I’ve been a runner for 12 years and finally love it, well kinda lol
I really want to BQ
What I would like to get more info about is how to fuel the day of the marathon and during
I have a sensitive tummy
On my long runs of 12-14 miles I’m good with a 27 oz of Liquid IV/ electrolytes with 2 Clementines
26.2 miles is a whole different run & don’t want to bonk
I’m unsure When I need to take gels, caffeine gels ect throughout the first 20 miles?! before I get to the last 10K to finish strong
How many calories/ carbs Per hour
I want to run a 4 hour marathon in April and not bonk
In Oct 2024 shave off another 10 min

Great advice! Speaking truth here. Everything you said in this video is what I tell everyone who asks me how do I get better at running. I will refer everyone I know to this video. Thank you 🙏
Some good advice. For the last few months I've been following your channel and have thoroughly enjoyed your content. I just told my girlfriend that I give a lot of my new found interest in Hybrid Training to you. Before your channel, I had never even heard of the term. I've been weight training for YEARS, but never combined it with running. I'm a 20 year retired veteran, you ask anyone I worked with, I HATED running. Been at it now for over 2 years and love what it's done for me and my life. Looking at doing Triathlon events next year. Your tips are something that have helped along the way.
Your preaching the Good News. This is spoken in the bible. Patient endurance ❤
Love the podcast, the material and your willingness to share insightful inspirational information about us who are in the process!
This was one of your better talks. I really appreciate it
Hey Nick I’ve listen to this video 5x and took notes
100% on this one man
Just started week 2 of my first marathon debut , targeting sub 3 in Barcelona next march 🤙🙏🔥💪 #letsgo
How did it go?
im just getting started to running and this podcast was pure gold! Thank you Nick!
Those wise enough to PACE the process! Without proper pacing you get explosiveness only and not endurance.
Thanks! Great stuff here! You should put your quote on “Endurance” on T-shirts, (if you haven’t already) I really like it! I would definitely buy one or two to wear on race day!
Absolutely hooked, everything about my state of being have leveled up - you’re a gangster Nick, you and your team are world class

Sometimes I feel like I focus on the miles too much. I should just go out and run here, run there, find a different road or terrain for once. So I'm gonna go on an all day run, and I won't know how many miles I get.
Last year I did a full marathon without training . Did 4:26
This year it’s in two weeks “trained “ for 4 weeks and 2 days ago I ran a half marathon slower and my legs were killing me to stop.
Full marathon in 2 weeks , let’s see how it goes
You’re the GOAT Nick
So macros at currently around 24% 19% 57% P.F.C, I’m currently on 50.20.30 covering around 50miles a week. Works a treat, looking at going to 60 soon so may change mine to mirror yours and see how it goes. Thanks for the sound advice
There's only one way to build endurance and that's to endure.
Underrated comment, deserves more likes
Great tips man. I think nutrition is greatly overlooked and most people dint understand how to eat with purpose. Its a skill that has to be learnd but what comes first is having consistent training. Then you can start experimenting with how foods effect you. But the emphasis needs to be on training with food beeing the driver of training and development/performance. But again dont loose sight of your training through your nutrition. Carbs should be strategically incorporated relevant to your training goals. Otherwise just stick with a ketogenic diet and progress into carbs later on ones you get to grips with a few things. Great tips man really enjoyed the video...
Fuel for a run and nutrition are two different things. It’s like comparing putting gas in your car to changing oil regularly. Fuel for a run is like gas for the car. How many carbs to finish today’s run? Vs does your car have the oil to keep the pistons from wearing out? Nutrition is the oil your body needs to function without breaking down over time, but nutrition isn’t the same as fuel to finish a daily run
Nick, great to see you being successful after ETSing out of the Army in 2017. I remember seeing you back in early 2016 in Camp Casey where you were working out at Hanson gym. I believe you were with the 2-7? But today, most unit at Camp Casey left for Humphrey or got deactivated and only 2-10 is left along with 9 month CONUS rotation to Camp Hovey.
If you are watching this, just subscribe bro. Thank you Nick for helping me implement discipline to get better results and in phenomenal shape
I appreciate that!
Thank you for sharing this with us, Nick.
Yea, but ……Wise enough to endure .. “the right process as opposed to enduring the wrong process “
I’ve endured wrong ideas. Thanks for the good info!
Thanks & appreciate for your important information
I'm new to running.
180 - my age?! Im 60, and you are saying that my heart rate shouldn't go above 120? If thats true then Im not running at all. I'm walking. That can't be. Im on my feet a lot at my job. Im walking between 7 and 10 miles daily, at work. I run a mile several times a week at what I consider a slow pace at about 11 minute mile. My heart rate is between 140 and 160 at that pace. I try not to go above 160 to often but if im feeling good I'll run at a faster pace depending on how I feel and my heart rate can reach 175 and I'll maintain that pace as long as I'm breathing easy.
My question is, will my heart rate lower/improve as I continue to run several times a week? (My resting heart rate is around 55 bpm)
Any advise is welcomed.
Hey, I just basically answered your call to another person, so I allow myself to copy-paste that for you here:
That used to be me.
All my Cardio was high intensity (160+) on top of weightlifting in circuit style... basically always redlining...
That means your metabolism has a tendency to carbohydrates.
You can improve your bodys ability to metabolise fat with spending more time in Zone2.
If you struggle keeping the HR down, try walking on a treadmill.
Choose a cadence comfortable to you and adjust the incline to produce a steady HR of 120-130 and stay there.
Soon you'll notice your heart rate coming down and you can either increase the incline or try a steady light jog.
RN I can finally run outside and keep my HR at ~130 😊
@maxl.5297 thanks much!!
Nick, How do u maintain muscle mass even after so much of endurance training? Please share any podcast link if you have discussed it somewhere
calories intake
Top teir nutrition. Owns a supplement company. Possibly peds
11:40 quality yarn!! 🔥👊🏾 and 12:57
great tips there. just want to say something about strength training to get faster. those 11-13 year old kids running 16min 5k and 33min 10k can't be stronger than adult runners who are running a lot slower. i think strength training is good but not really that important to run faster. i abandoned lifting altogether and replaced it with all out hill sprints
Strength training doesn't make you faster correct. What it does is make you more durable. Less likely to break. Less likely to get injured. Which equates to consistency as you aren't taking months off to injuries, which makes u faster. Core strength directly makes you faster. It gives you greater biomecchanic efficiency throughout the running motion.
Any carnivores here that have experience in ultra events? I’m 58 and eat a meat, eggs and some fish diet. I recently did an 18.2 mile ruck (45lbs) on this diet, but I’m considering a marathon (no ruck).
Would like to know answer to this as well. Running marathon or ultra as carnivore is it possible
I’m big asl and shredded but I have terrible cardio…can barely run a 18:00 2mile. HELP
Love your work Legend!!
id love to see you run a spartan race!
Great video thanks for those blocks! I wanted to know before you’re first marathon how much running we’re you doing? (Weekly mileage). And also how much did you run in the military while serving?
I feel like I would need to wake up earlier so I can properly fuel. It’s crazy how important carbs are in training
Normal everyday runs won't be long enough to worry about eating before a run in the morning. What you ate for dinner will be plenty and you'll feel better running on an empty stomach anyway. Just eat a normal high protein breakfast when you get back.
Powerful!
How do you deal with overuse injuries while not getting out of shape? I had increased my mileage maybe a little too soon. I’m dealing with a achilles tendonpathy. I decreased my mileage and switched over to the bike but it doesn’t seem like I will be back to running anytime soon. Any advice ???
You've just answered your own question. Just cycle more to maintain fitness.
Swim if you know how to! Spinning is good, keep it low heart rate and don’t push. You won’t lose fitness
@@jacobzhang3738 I’m working on finding a pool that fit my schedule now
180 minus my age 61 is 119. I don't have 10 hours a day to make that challenging. I do 1 hour every morning 150 to 170 with a max near 185. And I'm 6 months past heart surgery. 225 to 250 grams of protein a day. Your kidneys will be dysfunctional by the time your 50. Good luck.
What distance are you covering in an hr?
Tell that to Arnold and all the other body builders that should ask be dead from the protein and steroids they took.
Slow and steady isn't supposed to be challenging.
If you struggle to keep the HR down, try incline walking.
Protein intake isn't a concern for healthy kidneys and good Hydration. The mentioned 225g are about 1g/lbs bodyweight and therefore moderate when it comes to athletes.
Studies tried thrice as much and didn't see detrimental effects (but not much benefit either)
Sure, the kidneys have to work - but that's what they're for...
It's not 180, it's 220, check it
@genchogenkov6167
Those are two different things.
220-age is approx max HR
180-age is the approx endurance HR
When he started addressing some of the common questions people have I was like, “holy shit he’s going to talk about steroids!!” And then he didn’t. I guess he’s not ready to discuss it yet. Someday he will
Great stuff
I’m hoping you see this comment as this video is several months old. I’m training for police academy and I have never been a runner whatsoever. I have a times 1.5 mile run and I keep dealing with tight claves and shin splints. I feel so lost on where to start, how much to run ect. I absolutely love running but these injuries just destroy any progress I have made. Any tips?
What is your height and weight? Make sure food is decent and electrolytes are in you.
I'm not nick, but start small. Start with walking, start with biking. Work your way up slowly. Maybe even do jumping Jack's to improve your ankle strength.
Ice your body parts that ache. Foam roll everyday and multiple times a day. Use a massage gun if you have one. This helps recovery a lot.
If you're just starting.... don't sweat it, that's just how it goes at first. All that matters is that you keep doing it.
Been a cop for 6 years, you'll be fine brother, good luck!
And lastly, a good pair of shoes will help. And maybe work on running mechanics a little. That should help reduce ankle issues and shin splints.
What about fueling on carnivore or keotvore diet?
There is some good advice here. But I believe you should consider that nutrition and fuel isn't as "controllable" as you perceive. Some people can't afford milk from the farmers market or supplements as they are extremely expensive. Some people have families and are struggling just to put PB&Js or Ramen on the table. So, no, it's not controllable for most people. Especially right now, because people that have regular jobs can't control the economy, real estate market, inflation, etc.
True but for most people, they can certainly improve their nutrition to some extent.
It never fails for someone to come into the comment section with a weak mindset and excuses. The point is, no matter where you start, you can improve and get better. Stay Hard.
Look yes there definitely are variables you can’t control, but if you just look at it like “can’t control it so shouldn’t try” then that’s not going to get you anywhere. Control what you can, and do your best results will come.
Definitely basic to start running, many things you can do to improve, but one thing I would highly recommend is to get stryd foot pod, running with power instead of the old HR method,immediately feedback during the run.
Running and training for long distance races is a luxury. If you don't have the ability to control your nutrition and fuel then you do what you can in your budget. I think OP missing the point here
i’m becoming a water sports athlete am i able to collaborate with bpn?
I started this in Nov 1 2023😂, more on my apt workingout, watching videos about calesthenics, been doing it daily 5x a week, then i decided to start jogging on weekends because of my schedule. 😅 Guess what, running is really working out on me as a beginner last december ive run total of 100km. Today I run 8km 47 mins 7 mins pacing. Noticed my shoes is no longer responsive plannijg to run more miles without as early as 30mins my angkles would hurt. Maybe any one can share any shoe would be advisable to me now since im planning to run more mile, nike tanjun was my first running shoes😅✌️✌️
How fast should I go on my 10 mile distance run Sunday if I run a 10k in 50 minutes?
What if your heartrate is naturally high? A lot of the time I am barely breathing hard and I am at like 170-180?
That used to be me.
All my Cardio was high intensity (160+) on top of weightlifting in circuit style... basically always redlining...

@@maxl.5297 interesting. Thank you for the information. I will have to look into it.
Granola is processed? Mine here just looks likes nuts and seeds and it isnt cheap to buy.
I want my half marathon time to be 2 hours should my long run ( 30 k ) be slower than the time i want ,?
How many miles should I be running per week for a 10k? I’m relatively a beginner, 27 years old, in good shape, used to doing 1 or 2 workouts daily.
Do zone 2 training bro . If you aren’t used to running outside start slow. As stated in the podcast 80:20 rule
You make your own rules and how comfortable it will be. Depends how far out your 10 k race is but you can go from running 5 miles a week comfortably while still getting gym work outs.
To running 17 miles a week 6 weeks later comfortably.
Just don’t ramp up to quick or you will hurt your self
To eventually
Just mix it up. Do like one 10k run per week in Zone 2 (easy). Do 1 Fast 5k per week.(you can run/walk or at race pace) Do 2 slow zone 2 5ks. So that's like 4 runs a week. Start there.
The more days a week and miles you can run (easy) the faster you will get at nearly any distance besides a sprint. I am up to 70 plus mile weeks and making great progress.
When do you stop increase volume , what is the upper limit , if there is one ?
When you want to begin peaking and begin throwing in speed work
Do you think running for long periods of time is bad for your joints / knees /hips

I would love to support your Brand. But unfortunately you do not deliver to Germany.
Fat for energy > than carbohydrates and glycogen
Wait what sports powder did he say he take ? I couldn’t understand him clearly
anh may want to have a talk with Tom Keenan 😊
Slow running heart rate training doesn't work well for older runners because even a very slow jog after about a mile will exceed your max aerobic heart rate
Great podcast thanks. I'm curious if anyone knows - Nick ran a 4:15 marathon in 2019 and a 18:29 5k a year later. I'm amazed at that progress in that time frame. Does anyone know what specifically he did (weight loss aside)? This is pre Jeff.C days and my understanding was there wasn't much structure to Nick's training.
He did a lot of track workouts doing different types of running sprints and other long distance things the other thing he did was focus on his diet you have to put the right fuel in your body if you want to perform at high levels
@@treytheriot Thank you 👍
The 2019 number and the 2020 number don't in themselves suggest any improvements at all.
The secret is relax
More vlogs
If I didn't get shin splints, I could run for miles on end ☹
Hey Nick I want to get into MAF training but I'm concerned that means I can't do any speed work at all. Would it work if I did MAF style training 3-4 days a week and supplement it with speed work tempos, intervals, or strides for 2 or even just 1 day in the week?
MAF is only good if your running more than three times a week. Or more than hour long sessions
MAF method start working after at least 40 minutes when body switch to use fat as primary energy source. You need to learn body to use fat as primary as much as possible. So it mean long runs 1-2hours is basic. Without these long endurance trainings MAF method wont work, and your endurance will remain same.
Exactly. If your not hitting either higher frequency or longer duration your best bet to increase function is to draw it upward via higher intensity workouts. But if you can get the frequency or longer duration workouts then MAF is excellent.
@gazette so the answer is yes. 3-4 MAF coupled with 2-3 days hard workouts above zone 2. Don’t forget rest days though depending on experience.
It’s 80/20, so 80% of workouts can be MAF and 20% of your miles can be speed/tempo.
Running long distance achieves what, exactly?
Getting places that are further away!
A lot of things really. Endurance, mentally and physically. Running long distances whether for marathon or not is a testament to staying consistent and disciplined. For people like myself, I hate running, but I know by doing hard things makes you become more resilient.
if you look at running longer in the perspective of why do long distance exercise (cycling, swimming, etc) the answer can be found in cardiovascular fitness and health. Certainly 100 mile races may surpass the idea of “working out for health” but long aerobic training aka low HR training improves the efficiency of your heart which can have a impact on general health, fat loss and I’d even say enhance quality of life.
That said, I’m assuming that if you’re asking this question, you don’t do any type of long distance running/endurance training - which is absolutely fine - but to “get it” you’d have to try it. This mentality isn’t built from watching a video but from enduring the elements day in and day out for something like a marathon prep.
I hope this helps! Happy running!

What about being fat adapted?

Your nutrition advise is not good, or a healthy diet nor nutritious! The running endurance advise you give, is good and I can buy in.
Come on bro. Promoting raw, unpasteurized dairy? Immediate unfollow for me. That is just dangerous with no nutritional upside
Fuck it stuff be overpriced bro
