Would a 11 mile run with 4 miles at marathon pace be more effective than 6 miles at marathon pace with 1+1 Wu/Cd. Similarly would 13 with 5 at MP be better than 7 and so one. I am referring to Hanson method MP run that you said was not specific enough
@runelitecoach17 сағат бұрын
Sort of. It depends on more effective “for what”? It depends where you are in your training. 6 miles at MP isn’t a fantastic peak workout. So the former is better for peak training. But the latter is better in your final week. Also depends on your mileage that you’re used to and your history. It’s not so cut and dry, it’s how it fits in to your full training block and where it exists

The key point is to keep the heart rate near to max. Intervals makes it easier due to the resting in between, making it a more feasible workout. I started a session and ran 5km 5 times (1 day rest between) with high intensity and my VO2max scores were: 40, 40, 42, 43, 43
@runelitecoachКүн бұрын
I’m glad that you had improved with this strategy but I can’t recommend people train regularly at close to HR max or run hard 5ks on 5 consecutive days. That’s a recipe for burnout and injury. Glad it worked for you but did your races get better? Thanks for the comment and reaction

My only reason for running doubles is time. I work Monday-Thursday 14 hours/day. I tend to cycle gym, run etc until Saturday which I do a long ruck. With that being said I typically only run 5 miles for time and that brings me to a total of 10 running miles per week which isn’t enough but if I do doubles I can hit 20 plus a 10mile ruck.

What about Greek yogurt? I have been blending this with berries as a recovery drink, mostly because of the protein content.
@runelitecoach2 күн бұрын
Nope. Get dairy out. If you want more protein just eat more. Or add in greens or beans which are the highest protein foods by calorie. The dairy from the yogurt also binds with the polyphenols and reduces the nutrition you’re getting from the smoothie. Go with plant yogurt or better yet just add in greens and more fruit

Even if I had the drive of my younger self, it's just not physically possible for me to put in the kind of hours and intensity that I once did without serious risk of injury.

If you say so. This is not factual though. I have a whole video on age isn’t the limiter of performance we used to think that explains it. The mind is the ultimate limiter of performance, and if you don’t believe that it’s possible and therefore don’t even try, you don’t send a chance. But the biggest culprit is likely diet. We get old, slow, overweight, and hurt because of the accumulation of decades of poor eating. If you clean up your diet in a very meaningful way you can run very well in to your later years

I ran a half marathon yesterday having watched a lot of your videos recently and putting in place some of your recommendations. Easy running/ strides/ goals and mindset. I decided to leave the watch at home and ran on feel, regularly checking in with how I felt pace wise. Also I walked the water stations for about 25 seconds each. It was a hot day (here in Ireland) having trained in mostly cooler weather the past 4 months. I finished about as quickly as I could and was delighted with the time. Most races for me have been stressful, overthinking, watching heart rate and pace, pushing and suffering. This was without doubt my most enjoyable running experience in over 20 years running. I’m so happy to have a new stress free running approach which will keep injuries at bay and enjoyment and longevity in the sport now a much greater possibility. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!

my running hadn't improved in years until I started doing 4x3 or 4x4 once or twice a week, through the winter I did a lot of hr, z2 training which I believe was useless due to my volume being too low. 5 weeks in and my vo2 max has improved and i'm running times I haven't done for nearly 10 years, I find it tough, but I can motivate myself easier than doing a 5k, even though I do over a 5k when I do 4x4, I also find recovery no problem now, I think that's just improvement in general fitness,

I Don’t think it’s ever the case that we should have an emotion based inclination to training; calculas for example is not a life skill, if you based your emotions on mastering, it would probably go to Shiite. However a lesser inclination that we do share is to be submissive; everyone wants to be in charge, everyone wants to be”want” and not need. I PERFORM because my life depends on it; there’s a written word that says, if a man has all he wants but doesn’t have the faculty to enjoy-it, what does he truly have? So, I submit myself to a Discipline, whether I like it or not. I demand a real expectation, and not one that is solely to confirm my biases of failure; I can’t get mad at myself if I don’t succeed because trying is Always the 100 percent, while not trying at all, or confirming our biases of “I can’t” is unacceptable. No man in water 💧 ever said never, I didn’t try cause I CAN’T SWIM!! 😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
@runelitecoach6 күн бұрын
You don’t perform better if your life depends on it. You perform better if your life depends on it and you have any emotional reason to live. The key is that there’s any motion which drives you. I agree that if a man has all that he wants, but not the faculty to enjoy it, he doesn’t in fact, have all that he wants. And the thing that he wants is the enjoyment. Once again enjoyment is an emotion.

But hamstrings and glutes are the most important muscles when it comes to sprinting?
@runelitecoach7 күн бұрын
Glutes extend the hip which is in alignment with a vertical jump. Hamstrings are more relevant for sprinters than distance runners because of the large range of motion and actively decelerating the leg during the front of the swing phase. For distance runners hamstring issues are rare unless they’re overstriding

I think of these things in video game terms. But unfortunately it kinda goes against your approach. Just throwing it in here as a perspective. I effectively flip the standard priority and have: main objective - finish sub 3:30, bonus objectives - beat my PR (3:25), get negative spilt, don't bonk. In a way my non-negotiable is probably the easiest thing. It means I've a higher chance of perceived success at the end. But I grant it gives me a get-out from striving for tougher objectives/goals

Kiptum’s death seems suspicious - a group of men asking his Dad of his whereabouts days before his death, but unwilling to say who they were. Kiptum and his coach also believed to have been persued by a group of men at speed before losing control of his car. Even his Dad wanted a full enquiry into his death. Very tragic death of an immensely talented young man destined to be the first to go sub 2 hours in an official marathon. RIP Kelvin Kiptum.
