Thank you for this. Found this video over the weekend. I had decided that on Monday I’d be running on the runner at the gym. I had just told another runner at the gym that I couldn’t. I can’t run on the runner. That ate at me all weekend. Not going to live with telling myself I can’t do stuff. I dislike the regular treadmill, hurts my feet and legs. I’m Florida and before long very hot days are comes and summer storms. I need to get use to running indoors for times it’s not safe to be outside. I ran on it Monday, decide my Thursday (today) run would be on it. Need to get comfortable. Your video helped. Even did the high knees and butt kicks, which I’ve never done. I’m 48 and started running just under 7 months ago. Never athletic, never physical active besides family walks. I beat my 5k time today and on the runner!!!!! New goal it to get under 30 minutes. You helped do much. Thank you for this video!!
Milo is the cutest 💙enjoy your little boy as much as your workouts cause once they are gone you can’t get them back I miss my boy 🐕thanks for all the workout and tips much appreciated
That Assault Runner is WAY Harder than Running Outside. I don't like running on a regular treadmill anymore. It took my about two weeks to get used to running on it
I am learning to strike with the ball of my foot vs the heel strike. I have always been a heal striker but you tube is educating me to help minimize my injuries as well as up my fitness drive.
I saw that you guys have a trueform runner as well. Do you train mostly on the assault because that is what crossfit uses or do you think it is a better treadmill. Thinking of adding a treadmill to my training, but I'm torn on which one to get. It looks like the monitor is more useful on the assault.
Your sweet doggie Milo made my day running around with that shoe like that!!! My dog used to do that when he was younger he grab any shoes and he take off with it lol 💟💟💟💟🐕😍
I love outdoor running but running on the assault runner has made me 2 min faster per mile. Due to injuries, my runs had to drop. Regular tread sucks! Lol....love the content! Keep up the hard work
I love to run and CrossFit. I am struggling with my breathing during both. I don’t know how you and most people can control your breathing. I always sound like I am dying. I have been running for over ten years so I am not new to it. CrossFit for just one year. Please tell me there are tricks to help me control my breathing during any type of run and a WOD. Thank you. I love all your videos. I have learned a lot.
Try to focus on relaxing and forcing yourself to start by breathing through your nose instead of your mouth. This will help keep our heart rate from redlining from the start and allow It to slowly climb
Love the vids! Quick question for you or anyone that can help! For the assault runner pro - is it good for endurance training. As in, could you run 8 to 15 km (5 to 10 ish miles) on it?
A treadmill is powered by a motor/pulley system. Am I understanding this correctly by what you are saying, "you have to concentrate pulling the treads" the assault runner is powered by the runner? So, the runner is in control of the speed? How cool is that, less chance of injury! Pulling the treads, I guess it would engage more muscles than running outside? It seems assault runner/running outside has it advantages/disadvantages. Great video. Keep them coming. Have you thought about acting/modeling for Milo, he's a natural! 😊
You are correct, The assault runner does not have a motor, the runner pulls the tread. It is quite challenging and quite cool! I love it because it also forces me to maintain a speed rather than rely on the motor. And Milo is hilarious.
Hey there! I am considering buying this treadmill but I saw one (different brand) that has a few magnetic resistance levels. Do you find that the assult is missing that or is the belt resistance comfortable on the assault as is?
Do you wear a different type of shoe for running outside vs inside? I prefer running in barefoot shoes but when I run outside I have to run on pavement a lot and I find it stresses my knees too much 🤔
Could you use something like a resistance band, so that you get some kind of feedback to your position? You then don't need to be as aware of your position relative to the uprights, because the resistance band will give you a physical cue to your position, making it easier to subconsciously control it? I have no idea if this would work. Just came up with it now 😁
I got on this while I had a bunch of stuff in my hand and I didn’t know it was gonna start going by itself I never jumped off of something so quick lol I was pretty curious on how it worked so now I’m just watching videos
Have you already built a base of mileage or are you hitting these intensity sessions off of just crossfit metcons etc? Advising people just to do intense intervals will surely be counterproductive and potentially increase injuries and massive fatigue?
Used the AR for the first time yesterday I usually do a handy 3KM run around 15mins consistently give or take … On the AR I tried this yesterday and I was so much slower almost 7mins per KM .. that could be due to me not being comfortable with the machine yet ..
Thanks for watching, he is my workout buddy and I like to include him in my videos to show you guys and bring you along with me and what my training session is truly like.

Came here for a experience on the assault, and got a load of good running tips as well! Thank you for a good video!

He is part of the family :) we love him so much. So sorry your boy is no longer with you :(

0:02 Milo: "Shoe? What shoe? I didn't see a shoe, I don't know what you're talking about"
😂

HAHA it is his favorite thing to do
mighty milo🤗 Is he chewing on a dinosaur’s femur... bone is crunchy🤪. Be well and happy you three... always happy to see you guys.
Really nice job with the video. Can never beat first hand experience
Thank you!!

I have the same prob. I struggle when I run. Sometimes I skip the classes if there are lots of runs in the metcon. LOL.

I noticed you have a Tru Form Runner in your gym. What is your thoughts on the two different runners? Love your videos, keep them coming.
I have the same question 🙋🏻♀️
I prefer the assault runner, the triform actually feels a bit tougher for me. It is harder to pull the tread.
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell thank you. I appreciate the feedback.
Had the same question. Good to know! I bought an assault two months ago and have that nagging thought “did i buy the right one?..”.
I had a Truform Runner... LOVED IT! upset I sold it.
I love the tips thx. Got a moterized treadmill but I could try the same concept of training. Thx.
Thanks for the feedback and for watching!

I have run up to 10miles on it before, outside of being bored because I dont love using a treadmill it is great!

Loved this one! Could you answer this comment with the written running workout?
Thank you - this one was great! Is the progression speed or more intervals?
This week I had more intervals!

All the best for the event 🙂👍🏻
Thank yoU!
Simply love this content. Would you try a run before doing a CrossFit Open workout
I would not run before a crossfit open workout! I would save my legs and likely run after if I felt up for it!
@@Kristi-Eramo-OConnell OK. Appreciate the feed back
Good luck with trying to juggle the season. The "new normal" is definitely interesting.
Thanks so much!
Do you wear a different type of shoe for running outside vs inside? I prefer running in barefoot shoes but when I run outside I have to run on pavement a lot and I find it stresses my knees too much 🤔
I typically wear the same shoe!!
Gracias, saludos desde Chile
Thanks for watching!
What do you like better for air runner? Knit mesh runner or diamond knit?
Could you use something like a resistance band, so that you get some kind of feedback to your position? You then don't need to be as aware of your position relative to the uprights, because the resistance band will give you a physical cue to your position, making it easier to subconsciously control it? I have no idea if this would work. Just came up with it now 😁
I am sure you absolutely could! I have seen people use it for knee drive before, I will have to play around with it!
Does your, or any other runner you’ve been on have a clicky/unnormal sound once reaching a speed higher than a jog?
Mine does not but I have heard some do it before, the rollers might need maintenance
is this quieter or noisier than a motorized treadmill
I got on this while I had a bunch of stuff in my hand and I didn’t know it was gonna start going by itself I never jumped off of something so quick lol I was pretty curious on how it worked so now I’m just watching videos
HAHA yes, self propelled is def a diff feeling! Milo loves it!

I can't wait to get my assault runner in my new garage gym :)
they are a great piece of equeptment!
@@patrickoconnell2380 for sure mate ! as soon as my garage is ready ! still waiting til the winter leaves #canada
That assault runner is a fickle beast
The assault runner is powered by the runner; that means you're basically running uphill the entire way.
and it def feels that way lol!
“I do hineys and butt kicks.” Me: Sounds like the same thing. Oh, high knees. Ooops.
Assault made in china, the best trueform runner made in USA !
Used the AR for the first time yesterday I usually do a handy 3KM run around 15mins consistently give or take …
On the AR I tried this yesterday and I was so much slower almost 7mins per KM .. that could be due to me not being comfortable with the machine yet ..
it may contribute, these machines def run slower that road running for about everyone. having to actually pull the belt takes quite a bit more effort!
She has a dude upper body...throws me off but she's putting in work for sure.
the 30 fps was making me sick good video tho i liked it but when you were bouncing around my eyes were hurting
Im sorry. I love ur video n all the content. But the chewing of the dog. Idk its getting annoying n distracting. Sorry.
Oh lord, to take the time to complain about that brings sadness to my heart. stay safe.
Thanks for watching, he is my workout buddy and I like to include him in my videos to show you guys and bring you along with me and what my training session is truly like.
