    I started running exactly 7 days ago and the only reason I started running was to be fit,have a better stamina for football and I'm finding it really challenging but at the same time I loved it and I wanna go deeper in running, thank you for the tips and motivation♥️

  • @BaileyCroffordMusic

    “Change the way you measure success.” So grateful for your encouragement, Nico! Also, super inspiring to know you only started running seriously a couple years ago. It’s helpful to know that lots of progress can be made in a short amount of time with consistency and hard work.

    I've been running for about 6 weeks. I started because I'm 48, 50lbs overweight, and very out of shape. Over the last 10 years I've started uncounted fitness programs. This is what they usually amounted to: Strength 3 days per week, cardio 2 days per week, get on a good diet. Goals: Get strong, lose weight, get in shape. What ended up happening was 1-4 weeks in I'd burn out, get injured or just feel like a failure because I hadn't lost weight or accomplished any of those nebulous goals.
    This time, I did something totally different. Three goals: 1. Run a minimum of three days per week. 2. Get better at running. 3. Don't get hurt.
    And something amazing has happened. I'm succeeding! I don't know if I've lost weight and I don't care. That wasn't a goal. I've averaged 3.4 runs per week so super successful there. I started out running a total of 12minutes with two walking breaks spread between running and now I'm up to a total of 26 minutes running with only 4 minutes of walking. So I'm getting a LOT better at running. And I haven't hurt myself.
    Most importantly for the first time in my life I'm enjoying running. Not every run. Some are good and some less good. But at least half the time I finish and I think, "Damn! That was awesome. You killed it Corwin!" And that feeling of accomplishment and success will keep me going on this path when I've fallen by the wayside so many other times in my life.
    (And pre-empting all the people who will tell me I need to add strength or do this or that in order to get the most out of running. Yeah. You are right. This isn't an "optimal" plan. But I'd much rather have a plan that I continue to do than a more complicated and "better" one that leads me to do nothing.)

      Your every word is so practical, I'm trying to get fit for several years now , same get burns out pretty quickly, this year I took it more seriously, but it's always a struggle . Anyway I took a screenshot of your comment, cause it resonates with me so much . I don't know if I'll feel the feeling of accomplishment ( that lies with my other personal problem) but I'll start running and keep this message in my mind. Thank you stranger, you made my day❤

    No hate but this was a very hard video to watch if your objective is to learn how to be a runner because the camping and family stuff in my opinion is mixed up with the actual running tips and its just hard to get the information when its mixed with other things.sorry just pointing it out

    • @LenaMiron.

    Great advice! I’m 41, a mom of 2, and a former D3 basketball player. I ruptured my Achilles about 7 months ago. I decided after that that I’m going to become a runner. I always hated running, like you, and would go as hard as possible. Going slow has been huge. Not only can I go longer but I am actually enjoying it. Some people have made comments about how slow I’m running but I have to go easy (still rehabbing) and I want to go slow and build up. You’re half my age so I wish I figured it out sooner but better late than never.

    • @captainandrewcrabtree6535
      @captainandrewcrabtree6535 Год назад

      Ruptured my Achilles as well, a little over a year ago in March. It's a brutal injury, however it gets better... I have been running some and doing intermittent fasting to loose some weight, down 30lbs so far. As a tip slow walk backwards some, it really has helped strengthen my Achilles post injury! Wishing you a fast recovery!

I've found your tips to be incredibly helpful in the short time I've been training. LIke you mentioned, running was often used as a punishment in soccer. Changing my mindset about running really made the difference. The other tips like staying consistent and keeping it fun are also spot on. Thanks for sharing, looking forward to seeing your journey.

Especially important on roads with motor vehicles.
