Hi, in 2005 I turned 35 & became a Vegetarian for health reasons. Then I became a Raw Vegan, got good results & learnt from my mistakes. Even so, I felt healthier, stronger & ran faster than I used to in my 20's. In 2011 life threw curved balls at me & I fell off the wagon, but I've bounced back. My goals are to be healthier, stronger, faster & to become the best version of myself. I plan to smash all my P.B's in running, from 200m to 21km & what better than a High Carb Low Fat Vegan Lifestyle to do it with. Trust me it works!..Longterm! Follow me on my journey back to fitness, watch from my first workout, do them if you like. They are easy & progressive. I'll give you advice, tips & share my Vegan experiences. I want to help spread the Vegan message, save animals from the slaughter house and slow down the destruction of our planet. Finally, big thanks to the Man above, family & friends for their love & support. Shout out to Harley & Freelee, Raw Till 4 rocks, much respect, bless!

Dang he makes it look easy! I have locks that are halfway down my back and sometimes I feel like I'm trying to coral snakes into a bun.

[@jennarussell236]

You made me laugh out loud a couple times in this video. I commented on another video of your man, but like I said I thank you for this content! It's super encouraging for me to pursue my desires to both lock my hair and continue on a path to better health.

[@theironhorse8227]

My hair is at the middle of my back and I STILL cant get this right 😩😩

[@ShivaCVIII]

Thanks man, this worked like a dream for me.

[@MasaniLiveArt]

Greetings Brother, thanks for the tip, it is always good to see a brother with loc taking care of his crown. I just started my loc two years ago so I have a way to go. Plus I just created a line of Loc Hair Ties that keeps my locs off my neck while I an still looking fly while I am jogging. Have an AMAZING day.

I have lost many dreads due to tying with a scrunch and so now I have them all at different lengths and have since learnt the best way is natural tye your way. Nice One

[@runningbroscience1534]

Thats good hope they grow njce and long now...dont cut em ;)

Amei o vídeo, coloquei alguns Dreads na nuca, as dicas ajudaram nos treinos.

[@JVP_thephobic]

It blew my mind that I never thought to use one of the rear locs instead of a band. Damn! Mid back length here so still got a ways to go.👌🏽

[@runningbroscience1534]

Enjoy that length its still a good look

[@ricomarcelmusic]

Nice locs king!!!

You made look easy, my dreads are not shoulder length but down back and I just have way to many and they are way to thick to twist. but I like your videos.

I put my sons hair in a fishtail down to the point that you show and then I use an elastic on the and let the back hang free.

I got so many with it at least 100

@@williamhare8 wow thats alot, mine were around 65, been trying to combine some together to make thicker dreads. Works visually but bottom line is I dont have thick hair so as the new combination grows it gradually thins out

slam dunk one for me :)

[@dudleythird6123]

What's up bro can you make a new video,I'm still having trouble trying to do the updo and keep it in, can you turn around from the back and show us how you tide your dreads up i would appreciate it, it hot here in Florida

[@BamSlade]

Where is the video that u refer to at 2:35 ?

[@chrisgolden6632]

What’s the name of the track played towards the end of the video?

[@monstergamer8351]

how would you style them for basketball and keep them from slapping you and the opponents in the face when you make quick movements and headturns?

[@runningbroscience1534]

Thanks for asking, I have just the answer, I will make a video to answer your question :)

[@AKIYIAKELLY]

I think this is good but I think it can cause breakage around the nape and hairline area if you do it to tight over time.

[@runningbroscience1534]

AKIYIAKELLY so far so good, as long as they dont shake

[@mikesumner9232]

Nice Dreads just subscribed to you're channel. What's your situation on how often do you wash your Dreads? What type of shampoo do you use? Do you air dry your Lock's or blow-dry them? Do you use a sleeve on your head when you sleep? Enjoyed your videos and looking forward to a response.

[@runningbroscience1534]

Thanks for subscribing and asking. I have promised to make a follow up video to this one and I will answer your questions then. I will send you the link.

[@Bigsuave07]

A right on

[@DopePoetsDotCom]

Unfortunately, the techniques in this video will also thin the locs that are used to tie the others. And also, as your dreads get longer and heavier, they will not stay up when you run.

[@runningbroscience1534]

DopePoetsDotCom My dreads are past my bum, I still use this method :)

[@kevinhayez5635]

okay great

[@kevinhayez5635]

dam 13yrs wow keep going looks great u got this how often do u get them trimmed and how often do u wash them and get them retwisted looks great bro be safe enjoy and stay blessed amen. amen amen

[@runningbroscience1534]

+Kevin Hayez I dont trim them just that once, I wash them every second day, I dont put or leave any products on them and I re-twist myself as and when I feel. Cheapest hairstyle I have ever had.

[@bcarpiomusic3318]

RawTill4 Fitness love the vid. some of my dreads are almost to the mid of my back, waiting for my hair to He long enough to do the 2nd one you were showing. I'm curious though if you wash your hair every 2nd day, how do you dry it? Is there a better technique cauz i take 45mins with a hair dryer. Many thanks!

[@ColeG]

my locs are super thick. I get to the point where i have the all tied back, but when you go to tie yours up and stick them thru the loop, it mines wont make enough room to go thru the loop. Am i doing something wrong or is there another way i can get them tied up?

[@runningbroscience1534]

Yes i will make another video to show you

[@ColeG]

@@runningbroscience1534 hey thank you i really appreciate that. awesome video by the way. all my hair ties were broken and my head was sore from them straining on my scalp. using the locs to tie themselves back is actually so comfortable and no pain at all

[@Sanakanto]

@@runningbroscience1534 Please do make another video, I have the same problem as ColeG here and could really use it.

[@dudleythird6123]

@@Sanakanto yea I asked him the same thing, if he could turn around show how he got the loop in,or whatever u call it

[@stevedye2547]

How, and how often do you wash your dreads when doing cardio 5 days a week?

[@runningbroscience1534]

Around twice a week, depends on my fat and protein intake, even on a plant based diet. Also if I eat too much wheat products I have to wash my hair more often.

[@astro4741]

My dreads are thicker than yours though m8 and they’re a a couple inches past my shoulders I used to tie them up with a bandana I would use it like an elastic but nowadays I just tie the bandana around my forehead to the back of my head and let my hair just bounce around with them being out of my face

[@runningbroscience1534]

Astro wish I had made mine much thicker, big mistake

[@ashtreylil1]

I have waist length dreads twice as thick as his and I've been trying to do this for 45 minutes with a wrap that's taller than me.

[@runningbroscience1534]

ash G. I guess the thicker the dread the harder it must be to do this, but i'll swap your thick dreads with mine any day :)

[@ashtreylil1]

i got it done finally, it held and i slept so good without my hair harassing me. thanks

How thick are your locs?

[@runningbroscience1534]

Not more than 10mm I'd say, big mistake. Not thick enough.

I tried but mine are too thick 🙁. Help somebody

Making a video soon that will hopefully help out

how long u beeen growing your hair bro thanks

[@runningbroscience1534]

+Kevin Hayez Since 2003, cut off about 10cm once.

[@borekstvorek]

so I was assuming most of those hairstyles were more targeted for women, but I was wrong?

[@runningbroscience1534]

Very wrong

[@borekstvorek]

@@runningbroscience1534 glad to know. I've tried this for running, worked great! Thanks

[@borekstvorek]

Although I only have dreads at the back of my head so it's hard to do those hairstyles sometimes

[@kevinhayez5635]

what u mean bro

[@runningbroscience1534]

I have been growing them since 2003 and I trimmed off 10cm once. I been growing them for 13 years.
