This content is golden! Thank you!

Yes to adding electrolytes to the gel

I have to deal with this same pain tomorrow!!

Thank you

Get well soon!

You know what it is? It's the Wii Fit POV I just realized that is bringing back memories 😂

Hoping your back is getting well soon.

These recent videos are incredible. Thank you for posting them. I hope your back improves and you continue to enjoy your European adventures. I’m jealous!

Really enjoyed your last few vlogs. Fantastic to see it all. Thanks 🙏

What are you filming with Mr Ixel ?

Theres Something about the Met Police Outriders that Lowers the Tone.

Wow, great training day! I started watching your videos a couple of years ago. Thanks to you I started training downhill running before a race. Not only my downhill speed and stability improved but also uphill is much easier when your legs are fresh after a 1500m D- :).

Nice tee! Hope to have one in the next huge Bix order 🥹😜

Nice video and workout! Did you not bring any water or food?

Beautiful video! I’m really enjoying your European adventures. Thank you for posting.

really glad I found this video, I underestimated the word "beginner" in the title, turns out I got nothing prepared for this workout. thanks Vlad Ixel!

Great video! What drone are you using?

Beautiful! I stopped running about 1.5years ago after I injured my foot, x-ray came back fine but the pain keep coming back, orthotics doesn't help, now I'm dealing with digestive issue… wish I can run again😢

Great workout, thanks!

i just started running and I'm 31, still "jogging" instead of running cause of my limited physical strength, hit my first 2k this week. i hope I'm not too late to enjoy becoming a lifelong marathoner :)

I failed to make it to the race. Where did you stay for the night ?

I did the cancelled 76 to 17km run on Saturday which was still fun. Also managed to visit your stand and get some BIX.

Well done! An other amazing video. Thanks 😊 And yes, this summer is not worth mentioning

Crazy seeing that snow! Great effort mate, well done.

Are there hotels in Verbier ?

Great job and great video. Thanks for sharing!

Congrats Vlad! Keep it up!

Just great 🇸🇪

Thanks for the tips❤

One of the best running mobility workouts I have seen to date!

I love it! That's as close as I imagine paradise to be for me. So happy for you 🙂Have fun!

This was really useful! I don't do marathons or races, but I do live in a very hilly and mountainous place (appalachian mountains) and this'll keep me from wearing myself out walking around town. thanks!

Love your approach here! Very simple and not overwhelming. I know this video is from four years ago but I love stumbling upon workouts that are simple yet effective especially in the age of short videos which are short but too many sometimes with different workouts or drills being presented and it can get a bit overwhelming even though it's all well intentioned and informative. Appreciate your video very much!

Not convinced. I'll take the Camelbak still. Nice try.

11:38 Hey Vlad, what an adventure, which shoes did you wear out there?😊

One advantage of having electrolytes in the gels is at the aid stations. If I don't have to add it to my drink, I can just go for the water and not have to fiddle with another packet or stand in another line for the pre-mixed electrolytes. Loving your vlog BTW. Sorry I missed you at Zugspitze (I tried nearly every Bix product you had on the table there - great stuff!) maybe I'll catch you next year. Keep up the inspiration 🤟

An insane workout in a stunning area. I admire your dedication

Amazing 🤩

Beautiful footage man. Chamonix is the most beautiful place I've ever been to (although some of your last runs are now bucket lists). Funny thing - we got to the cable cars at exactly 6:06 pm, and since Europeans are on time (unlike us in Jamaica), they were like nope we're gone for the day.

Loving that drone gives some awesome different angles to other peoples videos!

Unbelievable elevation for a short distance. Those hikers were looking at you running downhill thinking what is he doing 😂👍

Nice drone footage. 😊

I've only been doing your workputs for two weeks. I'm already bounding over tree roots and rocks on the trails that I used to walk around.

Beautiful area :) well made video. Brilliant addition of the drone.

What’s the city again?

I think the drone is a great addition. I mean, the shots are so beautiful! (They also give a much better idea of the steepness of the trail)

Bruh Your an inspiration I started running but hell I smoke every 3km while running, lmfao.

im too heavy to run uphill 😢

Good workout 😅

@vlad thanks for the video. Ironically I reckon after a few years of ultras I recently nailed the technique of runnable uphills and it was exactly what I just got from your video too. I was wondering though…..I’m not as sure for technique on steep hiking. Particularly technical. With the added energy cost of pole planting etc is it still small cadence, and small steps. I find myself on really steep and technical doing larger strides and aiming to place feet on rocks etc. but not sure it feels efficient. Was wondering in these type of terrains (eg Glasgow climb in the Dandies in Victoria if you know it), should I be firing the poles quickly with short steps or does it differ? Cheers mate
