    I never eat before my morning runs, doing them fasted, even when doing workouts or longruns. Works great for me.
    If you eat enough in general, your muscle Glycogen stores + fat oxidation will get you through most daily runs. Improving your bodies ability to tap into the stores more efficiently by not providing dietary energy is very beneficial longterm.
    Nobody needs to eat before doing a 10k run or most daily runs., it is physically just not necessary.
    Hydration and Electrolytes are key though, always stay hydrated.

      that's cool that it works for you but probably not great to say that it'll blanket-ly work for everyone else. It probably does work for lots of males but energy needs are so individual and unique to every person. eg fasted exercise wrecks females hormone balance due to our physiology so it's never appropriate to regularly fast for exercise as a female.

    • @runfrankfurt
      @runfrankfurt Год назад +1

      @@caitlinknox2674 Hm, define the state „fasted“.
      The studies that come to a conclusion that fasted training wrecks the hormone balance consider fasted exercise as „being in a Glycogen depleted state“.
      This is definitely something that I agree with, running in a Glycogen depleted state is not good and that is not what I am refering to.
      I mean fasted as in „no dietary carbs etc.“ in your system during the exercise in the morning for example.
      If you start your standard daily exercise that is not too hard or too long with enough Glycogen stored in your muscles (from eating enough the day before, at night your body won’t hardly use any stored Glycogen as it uses primarily stored body fat for energy) to fuel that workout, your body won‘t hit that „depleted“ state where it has to start to break down amino acids/muscle tissue etc.
      That is when it starts affecting hormones etc.
      As long as your stores are not depleted, fasted exercise won‘t have any negative effects at all. Especially not when the exercise is not too hard and too long, like most of the daily workouts people are doing regularly.

    I have been running for about 7 years but have only recently started wearing headphones/ aftershokz. I listen to the Long Run Show or Running Commentary. I listen to audio books to, like Your Pace or Mine by Lisa Jackson, 26.2 miles to Happiness by Paul Tonkinson and How to Run a Marathon by Vassos Alexander. I sometimes listen to non running stuff! 😊

    If you have your watch on OVER your glove, does it still give a heart rate reading? Also, a Clif Bar and a pint of squash before a run sounds quite good. I guess it might depend on how long the run will be and whether you're doing the run just before another meal (and thus in a slightly depleted state).

    • @BenParkes
      @BenParkes  Год назад +1

      No, you won’t get HR through a glove. The watch needs to be against the skin. Alternatively you can use a chest strap. All the best!

    Pre-run:
    When I'm running in the morning, I never eat anything. Just 1 or 2 cups of coffee and about ½L of water with a saltstick. Works perfect for me for any type of run, from intervals (12k in total) to long runs up to 3 hrs. If it's sweaty weather, I like to drink plain water with a saltstick now and then.
    Post-run:
    A good lunch with 2 eggs and a fresh made juice will do. No whey-shake for me!

    I had something wierd happen this summer when I wanted to do a long run (30 km) through mostly forest and countryside. I used the Garmin website to define a route and when I uploaded it to my watch, it said that it could hold a maximum of 50 waypoints. Huh? Why can't I upload the whole run? That was really wierd. I tried setting up the run again not creating so many points myself, but letting the system calculate them. It took about 5 tries to get under 50. But, I was wondering if I was doing something wrong or if there are any strategies out there to deal with this limitation.

    • @BenParkes
      @BenParkes  Год назад

      I think my watch does 200 waypoints.. but previous ones were less. Even though it says this sometimes.. I just click ok and have never actually noticed any issues with the route when I’m going. It always seems to follow it fine right to the end. Probably need to do some more reading about it though and work out what’s happening

    • @ryanbosley3812
      @ryanbosley3812 Год назад

      I think this has to do with the device detecting turns. So it will have the first 50 waypoints (meaning it can give you a notification if a turn is coming up) and just have the rest of the route mapped out, but no notifications for turns after the first 50. But since the route is still mapped out on your watch you can just keep an eye on it, rather than rely on it to buzz and tell you to turn

      I do most of my running just for fun.. getting outside, enjoying nature, sights, sounds, friends etc.. whatever makes you happy. But still think it’s good to have a rough goal for every run. Whether that’s keeping it all easy, working on some speed with a bit of fartlek or some strength over some hills. Helps me with my motivation to get out day after day! Everyone is different, but these things are just what works for me!

  • @SGdownunder

    With the “junk miles” thing I feel there is no such thing. I get your reasoning but surely any runs are not a waste of time as it’s burning calories and maintaining fitness and consistency? Sometimes it’s just nice to go for an explore or just get some fresh air and have no real purpose.

    • @BenParkes
