Only one I might disagree with is the water one. It's really dependant. If you're getting to the high levels of ability and going for a 16 mile run only takes you an hour and a half then drinking water during probably isn't needed. Top up before and after. Anyone doing long runs over 2 or 2 and a half hours then water is a smart choice.
Definitely agree with this. If I'm just going on an easy run less than 15 miles then I don't take water (unless it's super hot). If its a long marathon workout then I'll take water (and stash along the route) but only ro practise drinking while running at Mara pace
We were told never to drink during playing footy during the match. I seemed to cope ok so did everyone else during the 99 mins. I know this is deprecated but drinking water is over rated
I used to run with someone who’s great aunt would get so upset everytime her great niece would go out running with us because she was raised to believe that “women must not run because if they do their UTERUS could FALL OUT!” 😂
Try giving birth to all your kids (10+) vaginally with at most a midwife to help, and maybe a perineal rupture to boot without proper aftercare and no stitches, because, not available 100-150 years ago, depending on location and social status. Yes, then impact exercise does feel like your uterus falling out.
@@jessicafrankston7155 I can understand what you’re trying to say but this was not 150 years ago it was current and half truths like this being spread will make some people believe that girls shouldn’t exercise
@@scout9930 Thank you, I agree: of course this shouldn't be spread anymore as current knowledge and should not prevent any young girl from running. I was only trying to make the viewpoint of the great-aunt understandable, who again may have been told this by her own great-aunt who might really still have experienced that. Not having proper healthcare or after-birth care sucks.
My new On Cloud tights that I got for half off yesterday definitely made me faster. I put those bad boy compression pants thought about the great deal I got and I ran like I stole it 🙌🏼 on this morning’s progression run.
The problem with number 2 is a lot of people think a 5k is a long run, and no you don't need water DURING a 5k(or even a 10k). You drink before and after but usually not during (unless maybe it's 30 degrees or something over a mountain)
After running for more than 10 years, I had serious recuring knee problems until my doctor said I shouldn't run anymore. I was still able to come back. What I did was to learn how to actively avoid heel strikes. I'm a midfootstriker now and by doing this, I have been able to double my monthly milage and improve my 10k PB from 52 to 44.... so much for number 4.
@@brucegarethgeorge Long strides cause heel striking. The problem with heel striking is that the impact of landing goes up a straight leg, through every joint, rather than being stored and partially absorbed in the elasticity of tendons and muscles. This leads to joint pain, eg. shin splints, knee and hip pain. A correct running gait has the foot landing directly below or slightly behind the centre of gravity, with a slightly bent knee, which cannot be done other than with a mid foot or forefoot landing.
@@runningchannel I definitively will. I'm 40+ years of age, and not too light. I kept my resolution to start running at least 10 k per week (careful not to overdo it), and the fact that my boss is an avid runner himself, as well as a lot of my colleagues, I'm getting motivated at work as well. I'm now slowly increasing my mileage (kilometerage? ;) ), but I already decided to go to a store next week and get a good pair of shoes. I manage to motivate myself quite well by spending money on things. The running started again when I bought a new GPS watch. And then I find a motivating channel like yours :)
Glad to hear you enjoyed it Cecile, there is a part 2 of this filmed that we'll be putting out in a few weeks. Hope self-isolation isn't too much of a struggle and you're out again soon.
I think the water one could "hold water" so to speak. I did my first half without water, and I am trying to reduce my need for water during a marathon. However, totally eliminating drinking something would not be a good idea, unless I suppose you plan on running at a world record pace :D
Great video Running Channel! As far as water goes: I was staggered to learn in the documentary of Nike's Breaking 2 project in 2017, even top runner Lelisa Desisa hadn't learnt before coming to the project he needed to take on water, before dehydration kicks in. Suffice to say, they recorded that adding it improved his performance.
The water issue is a interesting one. It depends on the person, fitness etc. Some people can train their bodies not to need water on longer runs whilst others will need to hydrate. Plus on longer runs water may not be enough on its own and of course you can over hydrate which will cause problems of its own. I'm a drink to thirst person. 👍
regarding the weekly distance, I think it's more like "your body can handle approximately the same distance in a race you usually run in a week". So, if you run 25k within 2-3 runs a week for several months, you should be able to run a half marathon. Probably not with a fast finish time, but you should physically be able to finish and manage the whole distance without struggling too much, considering the terrain is similar to your regular training terrain.
While stretching in the car park after a trail run, I overheard two people talking about running. One of them said, he was thinking about taking up running just to help him lose some weight because runners are all so thin. The other replied, "Just don't do a marathon or anything longer. Humans weren't meant to run that far."
Only thing I would add is regarding point 1. Running cadence varies between runners but is usually very consistent for each person, regardless of pace, unless doing very slow jogging or sprinting. Hence it’s true that you should take longer strides! The way to achieve this is by running faster! Changes in pace are largely governed by stride length and not cadence, but psychologically we think and feel that we are increasing our rate.
I enjoyed this video. I run between 65km and 85km per week as I’m training for a solo road ultra marathon. I listen to a lot of UA-cam videos but I’m realistic as most of these runners run fantastic paces that I will never reach. I run my 6:00 minute pace and that’s good enough for me.👍😃
Yes, running in it of itself does not "eat muscle" but can be a part of getting your body in a caloric deficit which a lot of people who run are trying to do so it's not necessarily a bad thing. But when you are in a caloric deficit you will lose some ratio of muscle depending on genetics, diet, stress levels, sleep quality etc. The big thing is when you are losing weight is to make sure you are eating enough protein to prevent as much muscle loss as possible. I know this seems like a "dig" at running but you shouldn't be running with the thought of gaining muscle or 1 rep strength just like you shouldn't lift weights and expect to improve your endurance and cardiovascular fitness. I would be curious however to see a study with 2 groups both in a caloric surplus with 1 group only runs and the other group lifts weights but legs only and compare the amount of muscle gain.
For a beginner who just wants to finish a race at a new distance I have always advised that the volume of training for the four weeks prior to race week average at least the number of miles equal to the distance of the race in kilometers. So a “just finish” marathon prep would have those four weeks before taper average at least 42 miles. This is a silly rule that really only works for intermediate distances. You don’t need to run eighty miles per week to finish a fifty miler. And forget running 161 miles for a 100 miler.
As per a previous comment, you are a little off with your water advice. I'm 50yrs old, ran 15 miles today @ 6:50 per mile. I hydrated before and took one gel with me. Then hydrated after. If your body is used to this, it's not an issue. Oh, and I had a few beers the night before my run!
Agree with it all apart from the water thing, its taken me a long while but I can run up to 16 miles without having fluids now, not saying its good or bad for my body but it doesn't affect my running, trained my body to do this because fed up taking the kitchen sink on a run. Great video as always.
Thanks for those great tips guys. I'm going online now to spend lots of money on the latest kit then I intend to get a few PB's by kicking back on the sofa and also losing weight by muscle atrophy. 😉👍
Hey Running channel gurus!! I've had a bout of sciatica with a numb left foot, I got an emergency physio consult due to the numbness. Thankfully everything is progressing well, I'm now only numb in the ball of my foot and 2 middle toes. My Physio advised to walk as much as possible and run when I felt I could, which I did. I'm 99% back to "normal" although I've noticed a degree of muscle atrophy in my left calf muscle. Will this ever return?
Running doesn't eat muscle, running is good for you, do your cardio. But AMPk and mTORC1 are interfering enzymatic systems with eachother meaning that a strength building program will have better results if you silo it from your cardio, and your cardio will have better results if you silo it from your strength building program. Do them on separate days or something. Also we only have so much recovery capacity, and running is a high-recovery sport. So someone who is trying for a new PB in powerlifting might very well find running interfering with their goals.
What do the running channel team think of adding resistance training to their schedule? I've lost a good chunk of weight over the last year. And somehow (🤷♂️) I've ended up enjoying running, which I used to hate!! Part of my plan is to add muscle. And I'm getting conflicting advice on how the two disciplines work together!!
When I did my first half marathon in 2017. Sarah I remember when I got over the finishing line and this girl vomit once she got over the line. I felt so sorry for her. But what matters she did it even know that did happen to her.
I've heard some questionable running advice in my time, but to be honest, most of this stuff just falls into the "complete wacky bullshit" category. The only one that I give "some" credence to is the water one. I don't drink anything during runs under two hours. I train like this and my body can handle it.
New gear = faster run? Related: the 'ownership' comment is interesting; I sometimes/often try to 'get in the zone' by giving MYSELF A haircut... short short short and putting in an earring! This is different to playing ones 'running playlist' - that 'zone' is internal. The change in appearance I hope to affect is projecting an image (real or not) that I then internalise "I look like I mean business, I now feel I mean business!"
Is it necessary to eat within an hour after running? Some people fast for 12 to 18 hours. Some windows of eating may not start until 10 am. If a person runs at 7 am and doesn't eat until 10 am, is that going to negatively impact their future runs or health?
Yes, as a female you need to eat protein and carbs preferably within 20mins after your run to replenish. You can read “Roar” by Stacy Sims, she does lots of studies on what females need, as almost all nutrition studies etc are done on young males….intermittent fasting can work, but you have to play around with your times in order to fuel your body appropriately…
Might be plantar fasciitis, are you running in old trainers or trainers that do not suit your feet? Are you running high mileages? Do you lace your trainers really tight? Maybe try resting, get gait analysis when looking to buy new trainers. Replace trainers every 6 months or when they show wear and tear (creasing in the midsole, outsole/tread wearing). Seek advice from your GP or a sports physiotherapist or podiatrist.
@@barryalexander2909 I have just got some new trainers after having my gait tested I got the mizuno wave inspires. Last year I fractured 3 metatarsal in my foot from running could it all be form related ?
On the distance per week, the Garmin coach will have you run more than a half marathon every week when training to run a half marathon. Obviously this doesn't scale up to full marathon training ... Maybe it is unique to the half?
Yes, most intermediate/advanced training plans will have your long run at over race distance (typically a few 14-16 milers). The pros will be chucking down frequent 20 milers. Beginner plans might go to 12 miles or so and are more complete the distance plans than aim for a PB time plans. Most int-adv marathon plans will top out long runs 20-24 miles. Some people advocate running by time and that can be in 2.5-3 hr range. I think it is down to what is manageable and injury risk assessment.
Not sure if this advice is from trolls or willfully ignorant people who want to spread chaos. Also not sure if anyone just getting into running, let alone serious runner, would believe that these are helpful hints. I was expecting something along the lines of vaccines will make you a slower runner. Always enjoy watching keep up the good work!
Thanks for watching Jesse. Yes, there is a lot of dangerous advice out there so we treaded carefully with what we covered and appreciate your feedback.
I don't drink water on long runs the majority of the time. That's not an outrageous claim. While I'm not suggesting everyone ditch the water I think there's quite a few runners who train without it purposefully.
T-shirt etiquette Advice needed! I wore my Move & Grove 5k t-shirt at the Peace Out 5k. Can I wear my Peace Out t-shirt to the Pride run 5k next month? 👕 👕 👕
Great video, did enjoy it. Some people are completely insane in the membrane. 😃 *Recently got myself Nike Air Pegasus 38s and injured my foot/heel running with it. Gonna give it another try today, if it does the same, it's going in the bin.
I’m concerned that the video is labelled “outrageous advice” and the big takeaway from the comments seems to be “ go and buy new gear” 😂 Today I saw someone on my way back from parkrun in Alphaflys. They weren’t dressed as if they were going to or finished running; I think they used them as an excuse to run-walk to the shops 😀 Of the two people who said running affected their knees, it turned out one wore any old trainers they had at home to run in, and the other wore their child’s trainers (a size and a half bigger than their shoe size).
No, seriously... where did you find this stuff? I've been watching videos and reading running advice for 5 years now and while I have seen some questionable stuff I've never come across anything even remotely as ludicrous as this.
What exactly is a "running expert"?. I've been running for 10 years, am I an expert? The way I see it, experts are those compete for a living, the rest of us are just amateurs with a hobby.
Sarah is looking really well recently, she has definitely grown in confidence

"Land on your heels." In the NHS Couch to 5k app of all places. Most authorities nowadays recommend a midfoot or forefoot strike to avoid injury.
Heel striking is not a problem its long strides while heel striking that creates problems. There are pluses and minuses to all type of foot strikes
@@brucegarethgeorge Long strides cause heel striking. The problem with heel striking is that the impact of landing goes up a straight leg, through every joint, rather than being stored and partially absorbed in the elasticity of tendons and muscles.

Nike take returns well, if no good and from Nike, send back if next few runs don't work out.
I sure hope nobody got injured by any of that ‘brilliant’ advice!
I’m concerned that the video is labelled “outrageous advice” and the big takeaway from the comments seems to be “ go and buy new gear” 😂
Today I saw someone on my way back from parkrun in Alphaflys. They weren’t dressed as if they were going to or finished running; I think they used them as an excuse to run-walk to the shops 😀
Of the two people who said running affected their knees, it turned out one wore any old trainers they had at home to run in, and the other wore their child’s trainers (a size and a half bigger than their shoe size).
Yeah, honestly that piece of advice sounded more like as an excuse for more advertisements in the channel coming up soon!
No, seriously... where did you find this stuff? I've been watching videos and reading running advice for 5 years now and while I have seen some questionable stuff I've never come across anything even remotely as ludicrous as this.
Some of these seem like intentionally trying to mess with people.
People will say anything on the internet! 🤷🏻♂️
Im a expert at listening Sarah
Buy more cool gear - noted. 😁
😂
Brooks or asics??
It's actually adidas right now, but we have worn ASICS in the past and really liked them.
This is hilarious 😂😂
Glad you enjoyed it Elsa
I am a man but wish a I ran like a girl. Specifically Paula Radcliffe in her prime
I'd be happy to run like Paula now 🙂
@@jamesdrury6627 me too but I’m greedy
What exactly is a "running expert"?. I've been running for 10 years, am I an expert? The way I see it, experts are those compete for a living, the rest of us are just amateurs with a hobby.
I cannot believe how many times I've been told I should be running with a gun (seriously) but this is America.
Wow..... Not something we thought to put on our list is we're honest
@@runningchannel I've been told at least 35 times I shouldn't run without a gun
I am an armchair expert, just don't follow my advice. Follow your heart!
Dont run if its freezing outside. You'll freeze your lungs
Wow that's a new one 😂
But I am a professional arm chair expert lol. I might even be certifiable 😂
I was doing fine, untill point three. Are you all mad??? What universe is this?
That’s mad about why you feel like you want to vomit.
These can't be real
Thanks for decluttering the nonsense available on the net🤣
We do our best, thanks for watching!
Can you link your sources for the advice? This stuff just looks made up for so called “comedy” value.
Your opinion on water wasn't very nuanced..
‘There are so many talented female runners’ whaaaaat????? Wanna rephrase that??
