If I could “vote up” lifting weights and form drills, I would. I had a nagging injury. It is finally gone because of strength training and focussed work on posture and drills. I know my balance point, can find a good posture and my body doesn’t collapse after 30 minutes of running now, so the things that used to hurt don’t anymore.

At age 56 I went from not running at all to a marathon in about 10 months. During that time I did Tempo, Speed and Long Runs every week and I was well prepared even though a knee discomfort made the race difficult. During that time my VO2 Max went from 33 up to 40 and even though I did not train for it I looked at it to see improvements as running paces vary a lot due to time of day, temperature and mood. In the current off-season I started to add strength training to stabilize my knees and to improve my pace.

DO NOT HOLD YOUR BREATH WHEN YOU INHALE...... then do it all over again.. same 2 min, hold breath 30 seconds... build up breath hold by 15 seconds .. try to see how long you can do it... try to build up to 1 min, 1 min 15 sec, 1 min 30 sec..1 min 45 sec....2 min or even up to 3 mins... that will take a few months....your running will greatly improve.

@@highlanderthegreat whats the reasoning behind this?

[@highlanderthegreat]

@@xristodoulos88 it is the same as altitude training but you do it anywhere., sea level or at altitude..you are putting your body in a hypoxic state like you are training at altitude. it also produces EPO, yes the same stuff LANCE ARMSTORNG was found to of used , but EPO is produced naturally in the kidneys, it increases EPO, you also produce more red blood cells, a form of blood doping if you will, because the body senses a lack of O2 so it tells the spleen to release more red blood cells, so you get more red blood cells into your body. just type in BREATH HOLD TRAINING. lots of vids on in... the main guy i learned from is patrick mckeown but like i said both google and youtube just type in BREATH HOLD TRAINING...but you dont just do it once.. in order to get any benefit you need to do at least a set of 6 or more... inhale deeply then exhale to a count of 4 to 6 . do that 6 or 7 times.. on the last one, inhale then exhale then hold your breath... DO NOT hold your breath after you have inhaled... you want your body in a state of hypoxia. see if you can start out with holding your for say 30 seconds. do that for 1 or 2 weeks 2 or 3 tims a week. or everyday.. you can do it sitting down or in bed. i have gotten up to holding my breath between 1:30 and 1:45 after i exhaled all my air... i have seen a great inporvement in my workouts.

[@jm.101]

My takeaway: just run more and get stronger. I will say that working on strength helps so much with keeping your form. A couple years ago I got into lifting and barely ran at all. Fast forward to today and that strength has transferred to easier longer runs due to keeping my form more easily.

I know this is not the most accurate algorithm, but at least it shows progression.

Thanks for the great video. I've added 2-3 strength sessions per week over the last year or so. I am 63 in March 2022 and run much less than I did even a year and a half ago, but my hr is much lower during my long runs, so I think my running economy has improved. I'm a little confused by your comments on VO2 max. When I started running again 8 years ago, after a 28 yr lay-off, my old garmin watch calculated my VO2 max at 46, which wasn't too bad for a mid-50s runner. Today, using a more advanced Forerunner 945, my VO2 max is calculated at 57, although it varies between 56 and 57. I know this is based on a garmin algorithm that probably reads 3-5 too high, but that is an overall improvement of around 20%. I don't train to improve this, but have observed it improve, then plateau over the years and in the last 6 month seen it rise from 52-53 to 56-57 over the last few months. What is going on here?

Hi!!

[@JimLarranaga5k]

Great info. Increasing mileage builds endurance, but also ncreases injuries too. Most people can walk farther than they can run. Studies have shown that brisk walks can improve Vo2 and improve the metabolic aspects oxygen distribution in the cells. In fact, long walks were just as effective as HIT training and intervals.Rather than running 60 - 90 minutes, walk. instead. You can even break up the walk throughout the day. Most runners won't do this, because it seems too easy. But remember: HIT training improves the heart muscle, walking improves the metabolic aspect of delivering oxygen to the cells. Either method improves endurance or do a blend of both.

[@corywecker4026]

Good stuff here but I would also add that it is the environment that you train in that makes the biggest difference. You should train in different environments but it is most important to train in a NATURAL environment. I am a trail/hill runner and I live and train in a mountainous area. I run mostly on winding dirt paths used by mountain bikers running over rock outcrops, roots, uneven, muddy, unstable surfaces occasionally vaulting fallen branches or jumping up and down ledges. I wear minimalist shoes. Because I train under these conditions, when I run on the flat groomed paths or on an engineered track, I can easily out run and out last my friends who ONLY run on flat, groomed, engineered surfaces wearing cushioned engineered shoes. The same holds true for any sport. It’s one thing to swim across an Olympic swimming pool, quite another to swim across the English Channel. What we need to understand is that we are training both our bodies and our minds to run. Where are we supposed to run? In the natural environment. So if you truly want to be an athlete, you have to be able to perform athletically in a natural environment!

Maybe running fast on flat ground is missing here. I'm also running a lot of hills and have found that this alone didn't make me a lot faster on flat ground. I also can't run much farther on flat ground. Adding sprints and tempo runs then improved things a lot in a short amount of time. And: adding a form drill where I'm intentionally making my steps longer by pushing myself forward more in the push-off phase. Be cautious not to overstride there.

Though I did use them one time for running a trail 5 k that was very wet where a regular Brooks Cascadia running shoe with a spike system over top the shoe would have been heavy with the spikes being too much as I only needed 4 spikes in the front. Brooks Cascadia is now my main training shoe and rugged trail racing shoe (gravel I still use some trail racing shoes) due to how the road models seem to not have any type of toe bumper and rip early in the toe if I use a road model on the trail and can handle the poor roads in my area.

[@clas683]

Really liked this video. As a roadbiker who’s testing some running after race season is over I am quite excited about learning the differences in training between the sports. Much is similar though and combining longer steady workouts in an aerobic zone and intervals in VO2max country is what I usually do when training cycling. However running is harder and creates more impact and stress to joints so the weekend 4-5h bikeride can’t be transformed into a 1,5 marathon run every weekend. 😂 Workouts on the bike are never shorter than 1,5h and the weekly dose is 8-12h. This is too much to just spend running. Therefore I am still riding a little longer Z2 workout every week combined with two shorter Vo2max (z5) running interval sessons and two longer ca 15k runs at tempo (z3). Also I add in strength workouts and some yoga. It is great fun to see the improvments when trying to train with a little scientific structure. Videos like theese are just free high quality training content and really helpful for a ’flase’ beginner like myself. Thanks!

Interesting. I agree with most of this, especially form drills and weights, those fit into a fourth way to build stamina by building your muscle and tendon strength without the repetitive wear of running long mileage. Also, the hidden fifth way to build stamina is to increase tolerance to CO2. It can be done by pushing your aerobic threshold, but there are additional ways that are very effective...

How would you modify this for the purpose of a boxer? Some boxers with the greatest endurance of all time, such as Marciano or Hagler...ran miles upon miles every day. Marciano was known to run 10-15 miles daily in the weeks leading up to fights. Others claim running is junk for boxers. It seems like sports specific work is obviously paramount, but generally building a great aerobic base would no doubt be a huge benefit to the boxer?

[@captainted696]

Ran fast to get fast. Hills and trails- never roads or hard surface - u probably need to race on hard surface- get on bike to recover then back on dirt trails and hills -track resting pulse- high don’t run. Repeats on soft track -fast and few but gain pace awareness. Skip the - have to do 10 or 80 miles a week- listen to ur body- race often- nutrition- purposeful stretching - after hard work out. - set specific races for top performance. All others use to learn. 7 years later ur a runner not a jogger. Been there -58:15-- and --58:20-- for 10 mile races when 46 and 47 years old - today just ok- saw so many very good runners- never got to the starting line because they over trained and constantly hurt. Dr. Sheehan ( giving away my age) LISTEN TO UR BODY!

[@caseysmith544]

For Running economy, I have found though for me it takes 2 days to fully recover with slow easy runs after or one day of no exercise is the specific muscle circuit training for runners, this is doing 2 miles then some core, leg and other muscle training including Glutes then 2 more miles after or doing 3 miles before and after the circuit for more advanced and those who are below the pro level in that fast speed can do 4 before and after. Also this helps simulate at the end in the second run a tired longer run without having to do all the time on a longer run to get what a long run feels like more often at the end. It also helps get the form up in this training by adding workouts that help body parts work more efficiently than trying to run after to help make this like a long run without the need to use some body parts on another repetitive long run during the week.

[@ian757]

This all makes sense. I have a query for you. I think I have good running mechanics such as having a heel flick and also my arm swing is very forward and back. Partly, I do it naturally but I also concentrate sometimes on practicing it. My query is that I often see high-performing sub-elite runners crossing their arms across their chest rather than forward and backwards. Do you think this has more than a very marginal effect on energy used in running?

[@joshschoenick]

Some elites have some arm swing anomalies, like Sara Halls right arm flips out slightly when getting tired, yes, even on route to the new women’s American 1/2 marathon record set in Houston this year. Also some have hands that come up in front of their bodies but it’s not rotational axis, (side to side motion) the hands are moving vertically but there is a bit of a forward and back motion in the shoulder that moves the hand from the side of the torso to the sternum. But the arms are still on a vertical plane. I try to teach my runners to lock in their forearm/bicep angle and think about controlling the swing motion with the forward/back motion of the elbows. This way they aren’t casting their arms using extra energy until late in a race when you start to “go to the arms” then it becomes a pull string motion with the hands still locking in the arm angle. My 2 cents, hope this helps.

[@ellecobra8275]

Great video, thank you. Do you have any information for beginner runners on recovers timings and how to avoid the impact pain felt at the base of the knee cap?

[@kuangmengg]

Recover timing meaning how fast to recover the muscle aches after exercising? If yes, then you need lots of rest like at least 3-4 days before running or do a recovery slow run after 1-2 days before attempting heavy running. Food with high protein and drink plenty of water also helps with muscle recovery. Pain in knee cap usually due to high impact from running like you running uphill too much or too fast/too much way more than your leg can handle. So you probably want to lower the mileage or avoid running uphill until your knee feel better. Incorporate lower body training like squat, lunge, jumping also help strengthen your knee and leg in overall so you can avoid injury like this. But if the pain persisted even after plenty of rest you probably want to visit a doctor.

Lot of beginners did not know how to breathe during running. They tent to take in one stride per inhaling breath and one stride while exhaling. Breathing this was can make them run further but not faster because by doing this the faster they run the faster they breathe so they get tired faster. The better way is to make as many stride while inhaling and and as many stride while exhaling. Doing this one can run faster without increasing the breathing rate. The strides are not dependent on one inhaling or exhaling breath.

Lol nobody I know takes a breath every step

[@junriepuyos7510]

My question is that when do you call a run a long run? 3k 5k 10k 21k 42k and so on? Is it depend on the runner or there is a standard of long run?

[@StrengthRunning]

A long run is just the longest run that you complete every week.

Thanks a lot for the information. What's your point of view about the Mitochondria training, in order to increase our VO2Max? Best Regards

Please, help! I've been running for 7 months and I cannot get any faster. My first run I ran 5k in 32 minutes and 3 months later I ran a 27 minute 5k. Fast forward 4 months later I can still only run @ 9 minute pace. I now run 4 miles each workout instead of a 5k. I run three times per week(Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday). I do not do any track workouts but I live in the mountain so I get some incline work. I've been lifting weights(squats, benchpress, deadlift, pull-ups)for 20 years and have better than average strength. My VO2 max is 50 according to my Garmin 245 watch. I'm lost when it comes to running....should I trying to increase the time and distance or should I focus on speed.

[@nikoolay]

In my 3 months of training I mostly run 5km and I started with 6min per km now I am doing 5min per km. Big improvements came from long slow runs. A big break from 7 days and then a full on sprint for 5km pushing past the pain. That's my advice even though you have done way more than me.

[@mmholling87]

@@nikoolay thank you for your response. I've started doing long slow runs on Saturday, shooting for around 6 miles or 60 minutes total. Tuesday is a sprint workout 8-10 x 400m. Thursday is a recovery run. My goal is to run a 5k in less than 25 minutes.

[@antcastle8365]

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing the knowledge.

[@Seija729]

wait what, i've never heard that VO2 max can't be improved before. is this right? everyone says doing high intensity stuff will improve your VO2 max

[@philipsummers9682]

The late Bruce Tulloh would I'm sure agree with this , he wrote many books on running , for runners of all abilities , from novice to elite 😇

[@charliipresley]

Any cons with having to run twice a day vs 1 8-10 Mille run? I have a newborn at home and can’t always run for 2 hours at a time…

[@wallyy33]

Any nutrition help?

[@RealStrategyGamingClassics]

As a 200 pound runner it's hard to beat people in a race at 150 pounds. Although I'm.very tall, still. There used to be a kilojoule calculator on Strava but they took it down so I can't compare to other runners. I should be 165 for maximum speed since I'm tall but I'm 200 and I got more muscle but some fat mixed in from eating junk food in college. It's frustrating but at least I'm not injured or anything

[@nickgreen2394]

I was under 180 a couple years ago and that felt awesome. I'm almost 200 right now and I'm slowly making my way back down but even 10 pounds can make a big difference. Good luck!

[@paco9278]

So vo2max workouts aren't that useful?

[@AmyK007]

I have an amazing friend who runs 60 km per week. She’s such an inspiration.
