Five Kinds of Hill Workouts

[@JulienNeel]

This video is as involuntarily funny as it is voluntarily informative.

[@SuperXrunner]

Awesome, very educational. Thanks very much.

[@Rahul-MMA]

Great video.. salute from India💓💓

[@ctproperties6762]

This video is magical

[@jessezitting9153]

Thanks for the tips!

[@markwilkinson5401]

Thanks for the great tips, instruction and science. And for the fun, human touch. I just got into running last year and am really enjoying it. Looks like you all are too. Well done!

[@naseerahmad5461]

Is this video from the 90's lol

[@Kurio71]

ha, the camera is

[@jensonvaughan]

Nah. 80's.

[@marcwysocki4724]

Grace Padilla had the steeplechase record in 1996, She is currently a Masters Runner in her early 50's. I wonder how she explains this video to her children.

[@chamilton1509]

Hill running is where its at. Great video, a little corny, but entertaining. Looking forward to adding some of these drills to my program this week.

[@joshm2089]

0:05 best part of this vid

[@connorbell4658]

Agreed

[@pepinillo123]

It was a fun video, great info and wokouts!!

[@edwinkarani5593]

Love this.

[@zymyxtyxgalera9040]

Great tips

[@afdave7]

thanks for the info. I laughed and learned. and drooled on grace a little. good stuff, but I'm afraid to train downhill. everything else, I'm going for it!

[@BenGmanUk]

He wears shades so you know he is legit.

[@Not-cu5ir]

Good stuff

[@scousertommy8220]

The cuts in the video are so ‘80’s

[@kierenkd]

well cheesy delivery but strong content - thanks for sharing

[@abcdefg54321x]

OMG Grace's body is PERFECTION! You are so gorgeous!!!!

[@JokerScribe]

This video is so contrived with the camera angle changes, almost satirized.

[@Bob-zx7io]

Great acting. Grace has great ti... ming.

[@Endurance2874]

xD

[@doctr7147]

I didn’t see a hill there .. this group needs to run with me I will show them some hills

[@jesusv1.938]

Bless up.

[@jpntky264]

Good tips!! but oh the cringe.....

[@alexzarko]

so 90's

[@tomjenmaj]

Good on her. That's a great time

[@qp12qp]

It took 20 years to make it to KZbin and it took KZbin 10 years to suggest it to me. Cheesy but informal.

[@pnutbutrncrackers]

Obviously they're all impressive runners in this video, but Ms. Padilla's fantastic form stands out. Such a natural.

[@ChessJourneyman]

Arms swinging side to side, feet hobbling around like she's a drunken reindeer, yes, such great form...

[@gladfelter17]

@Elijah777X You are my HERO!

[@winskypinsky]

The information is very helpful, but, is it filmed in VHS or Beta? Lol, the high school A/V department needs to put in a request to the principal for new camera equipment. 🤪

[@gellybellyism]

good info...distracting but i'll try to watch again and focus more on what he says versus watching.

[@IanBaker123]

Interesting but sooooooo cheeesey !

[@jjrtampa]

A bit corny, but funny. Some good stuff in here for any runner.

[@duerrto]

«let's do it» «by all mens!» LOL!

[@stanleykenyi1361]

Wait guys why did he say u should red 2 to 3 min when u can rest like 1:30 sec or something????

[@miguelducasse]

this old fart video is actually good

[@witch2eyes24]

Hal and Joanne of Bodybreak are better actors omg

[@kierenkd]

Great content. The video is super cringe but it kind of adds to the appeal

[@mrCedrosboy]

i like this hill session.can you email the program to me

[@ryandeffley7652]

She's got great abs.

[@mrburb]

It went downhill after 0:05.

[@TheLambCannon]

Some great running advice, but rendered almost unwatchable by the terrible hammy acting.

[@dannyjacobs6734]

Watching a runner trying to act, is worse than watching an actor trying to run! 😕 Good information though! Also have to add, that gal in the green top has killer abs! 💪

[@genesisb1074]

Lol I had a good laugh out of this...

[@KieroTakoBell]

I almost feel like I can act as well

[@andyrothermich7221]

Sound advice throughout. But I can't decide if they are really that lame or just trying to make us cringe...

[@nanakala1493]

OHHHHH the black guy, I heard so much about you.

[@tripleMmagic]

She actually kind of runs like paula radcliffe. I know what you mean though...

[@doug529]

Remember to hydrate with some Sunny D and not that purple stuff!

[@LanceWinslow]

I don't believe you need 2-3 miles of flat warm-up. I just run until my heart rate gets into the orange then take off on the hill. Why on Earth would you do this on the street? Find a good trail.

[@tripelogdarkness]

King of the hill on steroids

[@sunnydas8802]

good tips , horrible video

[@cristiangamboa2037]

Why to kill this good info with such a terrible acting

[@Chebab-Chebab]

No hills where I live.

[@onefoot7]

Then do incline treadmill, 6.0 grade, you'll be amazed how it works after some time...

[@Chebab-Chebab]

onefoot7 I don't go to a gym; I road run.

[@peterpetersbng]

have you ever thought to yourself she might be reading what you have written and your comment have hurt her feelings... i am sure that your not perfect either- just find your comment very insensitive and provocative .. have the strength to say something positive.

[@ChessJourneyman]

We've already established she's good looking and has great abs - that's about it...everything else was painful to the point of becoming comical...

[@sosweetyumii]

Go Pete!! Make her rode u to u bust!!!!

[@SserPrun95]

she has amazing body

[@tigerbalm666]

something wrong with her feets

[@drewbotha7493]

Weirdly informative

[@tomjenmaj]

Girl in green top definitely not a runner with that form. Great body though.

[@Mateofish01]

i wish that chick was my coach!

[@JPKobronwade23]

Cheesy acting

[@braaaaaaaaaaap]

I didn't hear a word he said...cutie...

[@dariendude2]

I think she crapped her pants...

[@amblincork]

Enjoyed the video - pity about the efforts at humour - just a pointless distraction

[@forcealpine87]

A 5km warm-up prior to running hills? Yeah, there goes your hamstrings unless you're a very seasoned sprinter.

[@kevywilliams9961]

Hahahahah

[@wafflepwnify]

SO CHEZZY ITS ANNOYING!!!

[@gladfelter17]

The girl with the pink shirt has a really weird running form, that kind of annoys me.

[@Johnandvanessa]

maybe good trainer but sucks as director

[@Colzify]

Wow, the cheesiness is distracting and takes away from the piece, and put on some clothes, grace.. Otherwise, it would be really good.

[@xxstar77]

was this a joke or..

[@drumdilly]

token black runner

[@user-xn2hf9re8r]

detest sexiest and patronising way this is presented. stop watching after 40 sec. what crap

[@RMNOLEKS]

Great advice, terrible production

[@BetamaxBooty]

what's with the embarrassingly bad acting? just be yourselves.

[@luvzlara]

Is this a skit? Because....... yikes!

[@billybussey]

Do not run down hill ever. Good video otherwise :)

[@jedaiahkramer1204]

That's what I tell my runners before their races. Make up a lot of ground going up the hill, because we're going to walk down the other side. ;-) In races or in training, runners will inevitably have to run both up and down hills. It is important to develop the muscles and stride types that improve speed and reduce risk of injury. The only thing I would add to this video about downhill running is to avoid 'braking'. Keeping a midfoot strike under the body with quick and light steps encourages faster leg turnover and less force absorbed by the skeletal structure.

[@leana.b9481]

Coach K can you recommend maybe 1000m Hill repeats for long distance runners?

[@jedaiahkramer1204]

Leana B, any workout should serve a primary purpose (but will also tax & benefit supporting systems). What is the proposed purpose of the 1000m hill reps? This is purely opinion, but the benefits of hill reps can be achieved in shorter reps. Training for a 5k, our hill-specific reps are usually 200m or shorter. But, we gain benefits from hills within other types of workouts. Hills within long runs, tempos, and intervals help us learn to run based on effort as well as pace. We do intervals of 800m - 1600m with some pretty significant hills within them. They help us to find our target pace again after we've gained the peak. They help us develop mental toughness. They force our bodies to deal with the additional lactate produced during the uphill segment. I would only avoid hills on easy recovery runs or on runs designed to learn/ingrain a particular pace. Anecdotally, my family goes to a cabin near a ski resort for a week each summer. Being at the top of a 5-8% grade hill, I start each run with 3/4mile downhill, run a few miles of rolling terrain, then finish with a brutal 3/4mile hill climb at the end of my run. Despite slowing my pace by 1-2min/mile, my heart rate increases by 10-15bpm. For what reason do I run that hill? To get back to the cabin for breakfast...no specific training purpose.
