I like the variety. Sometimes I really dig the long runs and then I'm super into speedwork and intervals. I just don't want to train just one thing, it bores me quickly.
I started doing heart rate running at the start of March after some advice from my brother who just finished 4x4x48 (man man) at the start i just ran for 30 mins and to run in the blue zone i was walking most of the time! i was running at about 4 km / hour pace (very slow i know) but im now running 8.5km / hour very comfortably and i can run for couple of hours with no fatigue at all! i'm fully behind this way of training and wish i had got his advice about 8-10 years ago! i love long runs :)
I did my first “block training “ today. I’m hoping to do well in my first triathlon in July so I used my commute home from work on my bike to ready me for a run right when I got home. I changed shoes and hit the pavement. About 22 mins in I started thinking to myself “why am I doing this?” That thought didn’t last long but for a second there I had some doubt in myself. Pushing through what is uncomfortable is an accomplishment in itself sometimes.
After 17 years of smoking cigarettes, iam now clean for 5 years, view days ago i did my first untrained wings for life run in vienna. A friend of mine said to me: hey lets go, lets do this run and i said, hmm you know what, lets do this xD i managed to run a little bit over 8km but it was very, very exhausting but now iam hooked xD i watched a view videos now and i didnt know that runing can be so confusing, there is so much info about runing, actually way too much for me to understand xD for the next view weeks, iam just gonna go out, have some fun doing my runs and try to track them a little bit to see my progression, later on iam gonna go and look into programms but for now i try to go runing 3 times a week, iam not sure if this is the right way but i think, fun is the most important part, the rest will come on its own^^ thanks for all your videos on your channel, iam sure they gonna help me on my journey!
Congratulations, that is an amazing milestone! 🎉 Of course enjoying it and taking it at your own pace is the most important thing, you will never stick with it if it's too hard and not enjoyable! Is there a goal distance or and event you'd really like to complete? Hope our videos continue helping you, keep us updated on your progress! 🙌
@@gtn My goal for the next view weeks is to be able to run 10km without any walking involved, right now, my body needs to adapt to the stress, i hope he levels up quickly xD one thing i noticed is, on my view runs now, every runner that i encountered had a smile on their face wich so is so nice to see now that i know wich struggle they go thru ^^
1:25 - Zone 2 (endurance) per Garmin, Polar, Whoop is 60-70% of max HR. Zone 3 (aerobic capacity) is 70-80% of max HR. Do you want us to train for long runs by zone or by % of max HR?
He's talking about Zone 3 running. Zone 2 does have a lot of the same benefits, but generally walking up hill is easier to do for longer instead of running.
Not many people seem to mention it but it's nice to hear I'm not the only one! 😅 I try not to eat anything 1h30 before doing a mid or long run and it helps especially if there are tempo runs in training (where I change pace). I think your body does get use to running but definetly not eating too close to training helps me. Hope that helped 😊 P.S.: never trust a run fart haha
For running, my issue is not the heart. It is my knees, left labrum, and left SI joint screeming at me. Barely get my heart moving before my body breaks down. Time to take some time off and get all that fixed I guess! Haha
I thought I was running in zone 2 or below but then I bought a heart rate monitor and realized I can comfortably hold a conversation while in zone 3 or 85% of MHR. I’m wondering if I need to customize my heart rate zones. Maybe do a max heart rate test or something similar
I realised, running, that for me is almost unthinkable to run on zone 2, because my heart rate goes up to to higher end of 159 quite easily. I use another method which is running only breathing from the nose and I can comfortably run in zone three for a good period of time. I was thinking to have a running test to see how accurate all this is, but I believe it would be a bit over for my current shape/goal
@@justanotherdude8145 nice. Nose breathing is a good way to go. I’ve heard that from a few people so I started doing it a while back and I can run for an hour. Just nose breathing. It slows me way down and keeps me right on the cusp of zone 2 and zone 3. I don’t have an issue staying in what is supposed to be zone two, I just find it confusing that I’m able to maintain a conversation and nose breathe and work is technically supposed to be zone three. I did notice it is easier for me to stay in zone two when I am biking so there’s that.
check your watch. some models of garmin, for example, have lactate threshold test. it is not ideal and all about predictions, but as far as I can see, results are really close to proper lactate threshold test. after test is done, device should offer you to set HR zones accordingly.
#SayWhat #GTNCoachesCorner Here's what I don't understand about Z2... my understanding is that your body re metabolizes lactate into glycogen but over your lactate threshold you produce an excess of lactate which makes you tired, sore, ecc. So why would someone need to take extra carbs when doing Z2 training if they're burning fat that is re metabolized into glycogen to be reused?
because in Z2 you burn mostly fat 85%, and 15% carbs. However over longer distances carb storages will start to decrease (30 kms or so). However for shorter distances you probably dont need to carb load if you are in Z2.
Do you enjoy long runs or do you prefer short and sweet? 🏃
Definitely long for me. I have aspirations for fell running once I've got into better shape
I just cycle.
The one that feels impossible to complete
Long run, I aspire to get as healthy and stable across the board to do an ultra one day

Yes, strength training! Plyos! I love jumping rope too every other day for 5-10 minutes

Perfectly said..i am gonna try it
Excellent video!
super helpful video
AMAZING

Does anyone know where they're running? The scenery is amazing!
Nice
Stamina isn't my issue, its my bowels😅
😂😂😂
Lmao 😂
Swampy 😅😅😅

Have to train those too and find what works for you. And take wipes with you 😂 💩 also, Imodium can help as well
Simple = Hill training and or Jump rope those two things will anyone in shape with consistency.
For running, my issue is not the heart. It is my knees, left labrum, and left SI joint screeming at me. Barely get my heart moving before my body breaks down.

My hips just went 😢😮
