@@parisisamoveablefeast3945 Hey well done!! I have recently started intermittent fasting and the Keto diet. It is so interesting to learn more about nutrition and the human body!
I run because it's fun to do and it clears my head. Almost like a meditation. Not doing it for weight loss since im already skinny. Hate it when people say "Why do you run? You don't have to lose anymore weight" It's like playing a videogame to me.
Me personally, I started losing the most weight after reading the book Woman’s weight loss secrets: the unspoken truth, a few things you are mentioning in this video are also in the book
I've (almost) always had the willpower to exercise, but NOT to watch or limit what I eat. Portion control means stop when you finish the box. However, I find the more I run, the more I naturally gravitate to healthier options without the constant mental flogging. Just ran 5 miles... cheese and crackers sounds lovely, but I think I'll have a fruit and veg smoothie, so refreshing! It's not that I crave the yummy stuff less... just that I seem to find the healthier stuff MORE yummy than before exercising, so I choose it more often.
@@SonnyEverywhere Absolutely nothing... unless you eat the whole block along with the entire box of crackers, which I've been known to do. Frequently. 😆
I like to split stuff like crackers up into smaller baggies beforehand when I'm not hungry. Then I can eat the 'entire container' and it's still a reasonable serving size.
I noticed that too.. It's like running is the hardest part of the journey and once you tell your body you are committed to it, it helps you get there. I don't even get hungry after run like I do after the gym
I agree, Running is the cheapest and most effective workout if you want to lose weight. Running and Intermittent fasting is the best combination in my experience. I lose 10 kg in a span of 2 months
I've been running on and off for about ten years now and one bit of advice that I've always found valuable that I've rarely heard said is to add a few long sprints to the end of your run. I don't mean pick up the pace for the last 100 meters. I mean like once youve finished your long distance portion, add on two 800 meter, absolute balls to the wall sprints to cap off your run. I don't know how to explain why it's so beneficial, but I've tried running and getting in shape without it and... it's just not the same. Something about burning off whatever ounces of energy you might have left, and absolutely cashing in on that cathartic runners high and turning in after that just makes everything so much better. You should be sprinting as hard as you can, getting almost completely exhausted, having to slow down, only to start slightly catching your breath, pick back up again, almost die of exhaustion, slow way down, then pick it up once again by the time you finish with the run. Something about having to catch your breath while still at a running pace really pays off for the long distance portion of your run as well.
Excelente idea. I run 3 times a week with 2 training runs and a longer run on Saturdays. I'll follow it after the second run, it sure will help with the longer one.
I agreed with you here. Running helps me feel better and I lost about 17 lbs, I no longer feel bloated and feel more healthy in general. I am still running mostly everyday now.
I took up jogging/running/walking after a vast 20 year gap. I started initially to go hiking in the Italian Alps near Austria. I managed 1 climb of 2800 meters and 2 small 2000 meter climbs. Then I started working on the treadmill and went from 1km nonstop (age 48) to 8km on the treadmill with 2 slowdowns (age 49). I did this for a few months until covid shut down our gyms in Germany. Then I took up outside walking/jogging/running. First time I went out for 1km and felt like I was going to die. I made excuses (age 49-late) and every week I pushed it and started to go out 1km further every 10 days. At age 50 I did 3 climbs in the same Italian Alps near Austria where I did 3 climbs of 3000 meters, 2800 meters and 3100 meters in 5 days. Since then, I am exclusively outside. Going from 5 km a day for 3 days to now 8km a day for 6 days of easy runs. I'm 51. Next goal...half marathon as soon as it's allowed (2022-Age 52), then...base camp of K2...a 2 week trek by age 55. Life is about what you make out of it. Even if you are not working, use your spare time when you aren't looking for a job to take jogging up. I'm overweight...still, but I was 258 pounds when I started this journey...I was then diagnosed with type 2 diabetes after I lost almost 75 pounds within a very very short period of time...then I ballooned to 270lbs. Now, I stabilized my sugar and my Hb1ac, I weigh 187 pounds, and I love running at 0500 for 1 hour....6 times a week. On the 7th day I do a very slow easy walk of 5km. Life is good.
You can't out exercise a bad diet. One thing I would also mention is that when you're heavier, you're going to wear out the support in your running shoes faster. Wearing proper running shoes is really critical and replacing them on the low side of the replacement range is the best strategy. I ended up with Achilles tendonitis as a heavy runner and wore a boot for 4 months with no cardio. I switched to cycling to support a full recovery, which allowed me to finish my weight loss (95 lbs in total, 15" from my waist). Enjoying both running and cycling led me to triathlon!
In my experience, the emphasis on diet in order to lose weight, 'out weighs' that of running/exercise. When I eventually increased my weekly mileage from 12 to 32 I never lost an ounce. I was 16 stone (optimal 14st) and stayed that weight until I began to diet. I now see exercise/ running as more a weight maintenance strategy, than an aid to weight loss.
You've got some great pointers here, but I would personally try to avoid the mentality alluded to at 2:25 , namely that getting oneself into a calorie deficit is "the whole reason" to be running. That kind of attitude towards running seems to be a recipe for burnout, and less likely to be sustainable for weight loss in the long term. However, I do believe that finding a way to enjoy running (whether it's by joining a running group, challenging yourself by signing up for races, etc.) is the ticket to a lasting and healthy relationship with the sport. At that point, the calorie deficit is often a natural and welcomed bonus for your efforts :)
That's a good point generally, but I interpreted the comment in the context of the video, ie, running to lose weight. I think overweight people often come to running to burn calories first then fall in love with it. I include myself in that group as a formerly obese person...running was torture but I came to really love it...now it's something of a toss up whether I enjoy running or cycling more.
@Slimmerlife - Weight Loss Experts Well, I would say your first point is spot on. However, there's also evidence to suggest that weight does not always directly correlate with overall health (have you heard of Health At Every Size/HAES? Really fascinating arguments they make there). That being said, I personally never try to assume someone's overall health just by knowing their weight. I'm a huge believer in focusing on health, cardiovascular fitness, and proper nutrition - with that, most of the time I think our bodies will find their natural "healthy" weights.
I could not agree with you more. Falling in love with doing sport is a great piece of the jigsaw of lifelong good habits and good health. I’ve lost 6 stone just by falling in love with cycling then eventually triathlon and I haven’t considered calories really- it just gradually changed my relationship with food and enjoying eating the healthiest stuff to aid performance.
One good tip that works for me is to exercise eg a run or dog walk in the morning before eating. Helps the body learn to burn fat rather than carbs apparently!
I lost a lot of weight (from 86 kg back in 2019 to 64 rn) by doing exercise and severely reducing my calorie intake (I don't recommend this) and at a certain point I even started feeling weak and tired. Though, I'm not planning to lose any more weight so I consistently run but I can now eat whatever I want, maintining my weight and enjoying what I do ;)
An apple tastes different after an hour on the treadmill , it tastes like food from high Heaven, handpicked by God himself. And that's the hardest part of weight loss.
Man you reminded me of Aport apples from Tian Shan mountains (apparently where apples came from) size of a melon and taste unbelievable. Tackled it on empty stomach, didn't get through half. All other apples are pretty much tasteless in comparison
I would like to suggest you not leave running when you get slimming belly because fat is gone quickly in the body and come twice speed than gone..... 😂😂😂😂😂
I’m far more intuitive than analytical about my weight loss journey. And my weight loss is lead by training, both running/walking and weight training. When I’m active, particularly vigorous activity, my body naturally cues me to seek healthy foods. If I’m idle for a day or two I feel a draw toward less healthy eating. I suspect that I could lose faster if I were to be more analytical, but this is working for me. I’ve lost 20 pounds in 5 months. My current target is to lose a total of as much as 60 pounds. But I’ll see how my body is doing as I get closer to the goal. This weight loss would get me down to a weight I haven’t seen since my 20s. I’m not sure it will be a healthy weight for me now. That’s really my goal, a healthy weight level that my body can agree with. My time horizon is as much as two years. I would not be disappointed if it took three. I’m not in a hurry, but when I get there I want it to be permanent.
I enjoyed this video and learned from it, thank you. I took up running 2 months ago (going from a completely sedentary life, to walking, to walk/jog, and now I am able to cover 6 km in 1 hour by walking half of it and running half of it). Consistency really is key. However, I've noticed that I have not lost a single lb and that's because I am not watching what I eat. I really do need to count my calories and use caution with my daily eating habits - then coupled with running, I will see a change. Before my running journey started, I lost 16 lbs by ONLY counting my calories (no exercise). Running is like free therapy for me - it's very tough to do and my whole body hurts, but it reduces my stress and I just love it. Weight loss is an added bonus of running, if done right.
A few things to note 1. running in zone 1 / zone 2 will be more effective at burning fat than zones 3 and above 2. carbohydrates are not evil. if you go without carbs you will have less energy to run effectively 3. don't be calorie/joule deficient to the extreme. doing so will put your body in to a type of "survival" mode in which the body assumes that you are starving to death and therefore stores extra fat 4. find out your BMR - base metabolic rate (not your BMI). BMR is simply the number of calories/joules needed to simply survive for 24 hours (say if you woke up and didnt move from your bed all day - didnt open your eyes, eat, drink, talk or move).
@@scarred10 I agree that carbs will be used for any running pace however if you would be kind enough to refer back to point 1 *"1. running in zone 1 / zone 2 will be more effective at burning fat than zones 3 and above"* you will see that I wrote about zones 1 & 2 being more effective at fat burning than the higher zones - simply because you don't have such an urgent need for a quick energy release. This is one of the reasons why energy gels tend to contain a few different forms of sugar (eg glucose, fructose, maltodextrin etc) as they release energy at different rates, negating the chance of an energy spike and then crash. And I think point 2 shows that I am not "anti carb" Thank you for your attention though. I appreciate the time that you took to reply.
The video is correct in every way. As someone that did use running to lose from 22 to 16 stone. I can’t emphasis enough how important it is to get the diet right and if you want to run, find your goal weight and don’t stop the diet or run until you get there, I did several half iron man length tris at 16 stone snd let me tell you every part of the running, cycling snd swimming is made that much harder with every pound you carry. Even on the flats cycling is made harder being ever weight, not to mention the impact on joints and spine from running while over weight. You lose weight in the kitchen but if you must this video is correct. Especially the gym work, I did solid running to train and feel I really missed a trick not strengthening the core muscles but again I was always fighting an up hill battle carrying the weight.
@@TruTube.1. haha 😆 not sure what this is a call out for. I simply replied with my experience. You are right though I do not do triathlon any more not after spine surgery on 2 levels which ended my running combined with my business taking up more time. I spent a large amount of time doing triathlon, it’s not something you can easily switch off just so you don’t offend who ever the hell you are on a you tube channel, it’s not an easy sport for any one over weight to get into, the majority of coaches not having any clue how to training someone that weight because they would never ever let themselves get to it, hence have no knowledge and any training plan can not be applied. Everything is harder, everything hurts more. Having done it I highly recommend losing weight prior too exercising, but if you must the above vid is correct. You run walk, swimming as much as possible. Keep cycle sessions short with a day in between to let the ass recover from the pressure of your weight on the cycle. Remember I’m talking about a weight level that most watchers of this channel couldn’t comprehend and I hope the never have too. I completed outlaw holkham half in 5hr35 which was my first half distance Tri, not a bad time in my opinion for 16 stone and a first go. It required about 3 years of training and weight loss to get to that stage of being able to enter, up to that point I did the usual progress from sprint to standard. If I had been goal weight of 12 stone it would have been a shed load faster.
Great video. I'm ashamed to admit that I've become the very thing I swore to never be, over weight. Particularly in my tummy. I was always very lean and muscular, quite the athlete, but I let myself go. I dont have excuses, it I what it is. My plan of action is now to run consistently, diet, and do weight training. I'm 25 now and I can feel my body wants to reach its full potential
500 calories are equivalent to 70-72grs approx. of fat ... That stimulates the mind a lot, because if you achieve 500 deficit calories a day in 1 week, that's 500 grams of fat that you get out of your body.
Simple to understand, sounds easy enough to do... thanks again Heather...Also I run, simply because I llike to run,bike, and be outdoors. Weightloss is a plus for me, loosing weight again, running and cycling more often.
3 years ago I Lost 50 pounds let me tell you how I did it and why I did it, I am a diabetic and have hypertension at 67 years old male, I was keeping my weight at 220 for a long time with no problem it looked good on me for my height of 6'2'' then after retiring from NYC Dept of Sanitation my weight went to 240 pounds then I was starting to slow down I went to my doctor he strongly advise me to lose weight for my health sake so when he told me that I got serious about my health what I did was changed my whole diet gave up fried foods, white sugar, sodas, rice, cut my starch intake way down no potatoes at all, I started eating veggies like spinach and broccoli , bake chicken , turkey meat, no red meat or pork, lots of water no juices, then I got on the tread mill and did fast pace walking then running at the end for 30mins a day so then I look at the scale after one week nothing was happening I was getting upset then something told me to check the scale after one month so I kept working out then when I check the scale after one month my weight went from 240 down to 225 I had lost 15 pounds I was shocked and happy at the same time then it was getting good to me I kept running then after two weeks I was down to 215 then it was time for me to go back to my doctor, he was very pleased with me losing the weight and I felt much much better I had a lot of energy, right now I am at 205 no treadmill just diet and calisthenics and weight lifting, I strongly advise you to not run on concrete jogging on concrete will destroy your knee ligaments and in the long run you will ruin your knees I will advise you to run in a gym or on a treadmill or a dirt road , concrete does not give and the pounding will do damage to your knees in the long run so don't do it save those knees, good luck with your weight loss u can do it.
the best way is to just go out and do it. everyday. no excuse. eat a paleo diet, drink water, sleep well and reduce your stress levels. but watch what you're eating. play your favorite songs on your earbuds and just have fun. run 30 mins once you adapted you'll pull off 1-3 hrs, more determined? run twice a day early in the morning when it's cool outside, stay hydrated, if tired from work? go for a long walk out everyday afterwork it is as effected as running just a slower paste. have fun and do not stress about it. make it the best habit reflex for yourself.
i do intermittent fasting..eat a maximum of twice a day...sometimes breakfast and dinner, other days just dinner, but i have lots of tea during the day..no snacks..i .eat tons of clean carbs a bit of fat and not very much meat ...and i have been doing running about 3 to 4 times a week and have gone from 100kg to 86kg in 3 months some runs were just 10 minutes at first ..then i pushed some to 20 minutes...now i do 25 minutes most runs and sometimes 35 minutes... eventually i intend to do a run for about 1 hour or more once a fortnight. thats 14 kg lost...still got to lose another 8kgs before i am fighting fit ...but im in phase 2 now ..which is going from 87kg to 82kg...and after that phase 3 is going from 82kg to 78kg which is well within my normal bmi....ps phase 1 was going from 100kg to 87kg which is a full 2 stone gone .. i use phases, to keep it interesting...as when i lost a full 2 stone i felt like i had achieved but body still looks fat...so i started getting impatient and nearly lost hope...so i started phase 2..so now its like i am beginning the weight loss program again...which erradicated the impatience, its like im at the start of phase 2 ...so lets do this..kind of thing. ...a new beginning.
Is there a better feeling than eating a pizza without a guilt knowing that it wouldn't mess up your fitness plans? Agoge Diet thank you for everything!
"Is there a better feeling than eating a pizza without a guilt knowing that it wouldn't mess up your fitness plans" - Personally I'd prefer a banana and blueberry full cream milk smoothie. Healthier, full of carbs and will give you more sustained energy to run longer. Plus you're body doesn't have to process all the fat that a pizza will give you.
The tip about quality food is a good one. Not all calories are equal. Smash a huge bowl of fruit, still feel shredded the following day. Junk food's negative effect is obvious once fit.
Thanks for mentioning the walk-run method. I feel like I am on the right track. I mostly start walking because of pain in my lower legs, not really because of exhaustion
Lipolysis (burning fats for their energy) starts after 1 hour of activity if the muscles are pumped with glycogen. That does not change the fact, that if you eat less cals than what you're using, you'll eventually burn up the stores. But interestingly it's not directly the running (
Run 5km (3 miles) 5 times a week and eat 1200 calories a day. Keep it mostly protein and avoid carbs. Men you will loose weight at any weight. Gyms memberships are good because it does rain. I also work shiftwork and it not safe for me to run on the streets at 3am. The only people running around here at 3am are people running away from the cops. I highly advice buy a quality per of running shoes. I mean real running shoes design for runners. You need to go to a sports store and ask for them. You know they are real running shoes because they will feel very springy and different then normal sneakers. This is a must if you are running on hard surfaces. A good pair will set you back about $200USD but you can find cheaper ones if you buy the previous years design. Buy the best pair you can afford. Your ankles will say thankyou.
Great video! I am just starting out on my weight loss journey on my RUclips channel and I am trying to learn as much as I possibly can about weight loss. This video helped me a TON with understanding how running can help me lose weight!! I am subscribed and in for the journey! Thank you so much for putting this content out there and I can’t wait to start my running regiment!!
I am running in my zone 2 heart rate when I run. I feel like i'm going at a turtle pace 😩. But I'm hoping over time my heart rate will go down and I can run longer. My runs are usually 30 minutes long
Great video. I have experience with this as since March I dropped 70 lbs by running and watching what I eat. I started run walking and keeping the intensity low so I could consistently run 4-5 times a week. I would use my fitness pal and add the active calories from my Garmin. I would then maintain a 700 calorie defect. I know both my fitness pal and Garmin are not 💯 accurate, but it's better to be consistently inaccurate then not consistent at all. Hope this helps people
Omg! That’s awesome! I should follow your pattern. I have done some exercises within 3 years which mostly at the gym and shred 80 lbs so far. But your journey with running is amazing. I started to jog august last year with only twice a week, now I do 5-6 times a week but more like a jog for me.. I don’t run. Keeping my pace 7-8 mins per km seems okay for me (age etc). Only today, I start to watch my food again ... Another 20-25 lbs to my weight goal. Hope I can be at least 30% as good as you. Oh I do jog 5-6 km every morning with another 4-5 km walk. Seems this whole jog and walk helps me to shred my lower body volume faster than cycling or weight training. Well at least on me. May I know how much total calories you eat one day or if you have any particular diet. Pls share if you don’t mind. Thank you
@@rinsoe525 congrats on your accomplishments. That is amazing!!! Sounds like you are doing everything great. Typically I eat 2,400 calories a day. I just eat low calorie high volume foods. The guy on RUclips that helped me rethink eating is Greg Douxette. He is a bodybuilder and huge personality. If you can get past that he has great information. It's the only "diet" that I have found sustainable. Also when I say run I'm typically at 7min a km, so give yourself credit. Keep up the great work!!!
Ah I got the idea and I will check the RUclips channel that you suggest. Whoa! I even eat less than you but well oh well, maybe it’s because of my age and that maybe it’s something hormonal😀😀 but hey, I won’t give up. Thanks a lot, stay safe and healthy
@@rinsoe525 keep in mind I'm 6'1 and 220 lbs which contribute to my calorie intake. Google TDEE calc. Put in your information and it will give you calories based on that. I tend to go in a 500-700 calorie deficit based on that. It's slow but sustainable. I am now dropping.5-1 pound a week which is what I like.
5’3 with 166 lbs, based on TDEE I need 2379 calories one day. I want slow but steady weight loss too. I had lotsa plateaus and sure will have many more. Something wrong with me, eating less but still not easy losing weight. God I need miracles 😀
Look up lower calorie versions of your favorite foods. Eating low calorie dense foods is key for sustainable weight loss. You'll never feel hungry, you'll enjoy what you eat, and you'll lose weight like clockwork. Oh, and running helps 😉
Hi. I wanna start running, but i am scared that it does not lead to any kind of pain, because i have no stamina and i am totally a non sports person. So can you suggest me something which can help me to start with running.
Great video with plenty of information on running and weight loss. Lost a bunch of weight with running once the pandemic lockdowns started. More exercise and less eating! Plus changing the diet helped a tremendous amount. However, holidays and winter have set in and I need to get back to running more. Thanks GTN!
I train 12 hrs a week hard karate but started jogging slow this week.. im not unfit but my throat burns n aches. I hope it gets better as thats just a half or less km jog.
@@darrenkelly7271 I would argue that although swimming uses a more diverse range of muscles, it won't raise the heart rate as much as running does due to the fact that running is weight bearing and you're fighting against gravity, GTN did a video about this about a year ago I think and they found that overall running burned more calories than swimming.
@@peterritchie2554 I would argue swimming raises the heart rate as much as, or more than running. Say your a beginner at running, your pace won't be that fast. But with swimming, you will thrash out length after length with your heart pounding. Again it's all personal preference, but if we can do both swimming and running that we'll be calorie burning furnaces.
@@darrenkelly7271 just to add my two cents :) I have never been able to run because I found it too boring or strenuous. This year I took up swimming, and for the past 3 months have been in the pool pretty much every day of the week. Last night, because the pools are now shut again, I went for a long walk, but in the middle of it, felt like running, and have to admit I managed to run for about 7 minutes without feeling any discomfort. I think swimming has helped build my stamina in addition to also shedding about 8 kilos of weight in this time. My thighs and calves have never been this muscly! So, in a weird turn of events swimming seems to have prepared me for running haha. After the lockdown I can't wait to enjoy both!
I've been stable weight for years, the minute I started marathon training (while also cycling and swimming) I started losing weight again. There's nothing quite like running 50-60km a week to lose weight, especially if you already have an ok diet.
Please don't be mad at me, but I worked with a bodybuilder. He talked about his Friday night meal when he was in training, it was 3 large pizzas that he ate and was still hungry. I mean, OK, I can't do that but it is funny how different activities and goals and desires can affect our results.
Great video! Would you do a comparison video or an analysis video on minimalist/barefoot shoes running? Looking at the pros and cons. Maybe compare to regular running shoes.
I completed the Couch To 5k program last year and got into a really good routine, and lost a decent amount of weight, up until I sprained my ankle just before Christmas. Thankfully, I didn’t lose too much fitness and I’m back to training to increase my pace. I can manage 5-6km running without stopping, now I want to get fast.
If you want to loose weight, be a little hungry everyday. And when you are hungry make sure to not grab that snack but wait until some proper food is available. Running to do anything but fun is silly. Have fun the rest will happen.
Just to say i'm from France and i LOOOOOOOOOve Bath ! I would like to come back one day. I have a project of walking the Costwold trail soon. Great video BTW ;)
@@kedevash I usually travel at least twice a year to France: November to wine auctions to Beaune and usually to Côte d’Azur in the summer. Dear, I miss it so much!!! 😢😢😢
indoor bikes are the best way to help weight loss for me at least with shin splints and cevers disease on an indoor bike i can get over 400 cals burned in 30 minutes consistently
Thankyou for the tips! I have not long been running again, due to a 'plantar facilitis' injury! I have a triathlon event to look forward to on the 22/02/22 🤸♂️
I have been running 8 km for 20 days ,lost 2.5 kgs,but my gym trainer asked me not to run anymore saying I am loosing muscle weight also. So do we loose muscle weight also?
well I'm surprised to find out that I actually lose 0.5-0.7kg every time after running for 21.3km I believe the loss are from water lost through respiration and breathing, but more from the actual "burning" of fuel as the body converts what we ate into energy... and in breaking down glucose we get CO2 (which we exhale), H2O and ATP for the muscles What a bizarre thought, that we get lighter with every exhale, just from expelling the carbon that came from the carbohydrates we eat
Start increasing your length of run gradually. I started by running 500 mts, then increasing it gradually to 600 mts, 700 mts etc. Now, I run 5 kms daily without a stop or need to walk.
After a year of training all I can say is that you aren't training! You are just going through the motions but you are definitely not training. To train you need to have incrementally harder goals (10% every 3-4 weeks).
I am running for more than a year now. However, I am unable to increase my speed. I have watched your videos on speed increasing work outs like speed run, tempo run but not being able to increase. My peak speed is very close to my normal running speed which is low. My peak speed for .25km is 6.5 min per km and normal speed is approx 7.5 min per km for 7 kms. Any tips?
Hi Heather! Great video! One thing I'm a little puzzled by is should my daily calorie intake remain the same everyday for weight/fat loss? I'm on around 2600kcal for a run day so should this be the same on a rest day? Thanks in advance! Keep up the good work!!!

Did it work for you?
@@lindumuzishabangu1207 absolutely yes .
I agree, Running is the cheapest and most effective workout if you want to lose weight. Running and Intermittent fasting is the best combination in my experience. I lose 10 kg in a span of 2 months
When was your eating window??
I agree.. expensive gyms, memberships and fancy clothes will just make you lose money, not weight.
Would you like to share how you lost weight?
started running years ago for weight loss. Fell off the wagon during COVID...now I have 12KG to lose. Great video reminder
Happy new year to all GTN
how’d it go??
I've been running on and off for about ten years now and one bit of advice that I've always found valuable that I've rarely heard said is to add a few long sprints to the end of your run. I don't mean pick up the pace for the last 100 meters. I mean like once youve finished your long distance portion, add on two 800 meter, absolute balls to the wall sprints to cap off your run. I don't know how to explain why it's so beneficial, but I've tried running and getting in shape without it and... it's just not the same. Something about burning off whatever ounces of energy you might have left, and absolutely cashing in on that cathartic runners high and turning in after that just makes everything so much better. You should be sprinting as hard as you can, getting almost completely exhausted, having to slow down, only to start slightly catching your breath, pick back up again, almost die of exhaustion, slow way down, then pick it up once again by the time you finish with the run. Something about having to catch your breath while still at a running pace really pays off for the long distance portion of your run as well.
Benefit ?
It’s called hiit and it’s very effective when losing weight
Excelente idea. I run 3 times a week with 2 training runs and a longer run on Saturdays.
I'll follow it after the second run, it sure will help with the longer one.
I agreed with you here. Running helps me feel better and I lost about 17 lbs, I no longer feel bloated and feel more healthy in general. I am still running mostly everyday now.
I took up jogging/running/walking after a vast 20 year gap. I started initially to go hiking in the Italian Alps near Austria. I managed 1 climb of 2800 meters and 2 small 2000 meter climbs. Then I started working on the treadmill and went from 1km nonstop (age 48) to 8km on the treadmill with 2 slowdowns (age 49). I did this for a few months until covid shut down our gyms in Germany. Then I took up outside walking/jogging/running. First time I went out for 1km and felt like I was going to die. I made excuses (age 49-late) and every week I pushed it and started to go out 1km further every 10 days. At age 50 I did 3 climbs in the same Italian Alps near Austria where I did 3 climbs of 3000 meters, 2800 meters and 3100 meters in 5 days. Since then, I am exclusively outside. Going from 5 km a day for 3 days to now 8km a day for 6 days of easy runs. I'm 51. Next goal...half marathon as soon as it's allowed (2022-Age 52), then...base camp of K2...a 2 week trek by age 55. Life is about what you make out of it. Even if you are not working, use your spare time when you aren't looking for a job to take jogging up. I'm overweight...still, but I was 258 pounds when I started this journey...I was then diagnosed with type 2 diabetes after I lost almost 75 pounds within a very very short period of time...then I ballooned to 270lbs. Now, I stabilized my sugar and my Hb1ac, I weigh 187 pounds, and I love running at 0500 for 1 hour....6 times a week. On the 7th day I do a very slow easy walk of 5km. Life is good.
You can't out exercise a bad diet.
One thing I would also mention is that when you're heavier, you're going to wear out the support in your running shoes faster. Wearing proper running shoes is really critical and replacing them on the low side of the replacement range is the best strategy. I ended up with Achilles tendonitis as a heavy runner and wore a boot for 4 months with no cardio. I switched to cycling to support a full recovery, which allowed me to finish my weight loss (95 lbs in total, 15" from my waist). Enjoying both running and cycling led me to triathlon!
In my experience, the emphasis on diet in order to lose weight, 'out weighs' that of running/exercise. When I eventually increased my weekly mileage from 12 to 32 I never lost an ounce. I was 16 stone (optimal 14st) and stayed that weight until I began to diet. I now see exercise/ running as more a weight maintenance strategy, than an aid to weight loss.
of course but a balance between the two is best
It is 75% diet and 25% exercise.
You've got some great pointers here, but I would personally try to avoid the mentality alluded to at 2:25 , namely that getting oneself into a calorie deficit is "the whole reason" to be running. That kind of attitude towards running seems to be a recipe for burnout, and less likely to be sustainable for weight loss in the long term. However, I do believe that finding a way to enjoy running (whether it's by joining a running group, challenging yourself by signing up for races, etc.) is the ticket to a lasting and healthy relationship with the sport. At that point, the calorie deficit is often a natural and welcomed bonus for your efforts :)
That's a good point generally, but I interpreted the comment in the context of the video, ie, running to lose weight. I think overweight people often come to running to burn calories first then fall in love with it. I include myself in that group as a formerly obese person...running was torture but I came to really love it...now it's something of a toss up whether I enjoy running or cycling more.
@Slimmerlife - Weight Loss Experts Well, I would say your first point is spot on. However, there's also evidence to suggest that weight does not always directly correlate with overall health (have you heard of Health At Every Size/HAES? Really fascinating arguments they make there). That being said, I personally never try to assume someone's overall health just by knowing their weight. I'm a huge believer in focusing on health, cardiovascular fitness, and proper nutrition - with that, most of the time I think our bodies will find their natural "healthy" weights.
I thought she said, "don't focus on counting calories, and focus more on eating heathly"
I could not agree with you more. Falling in love with doing sport is a great piece of the jigsaw of lifelong good habits and good health. I’ve lost 6 stone just by falling in love with cycling then eventually triathlon and I haven’t considered calories really- it just gradually changed my relationship with food and enjoying eating the healthiest stuff to aid performance.
One good tip that works for me is to exercise eg a run or dog walk in the morning before eating. Helps the body learn to burn fat rather than carbs apparently!
Yes, since you’re in a fasted state!
Such a natural presenter
Remember stretching out after a run is important, especially your back and legs 💪😉👍
I lost a lot of weight (from 86 kg back in 2019 to 64 rn) by doing exercise and severely reducing my calorie intake (I don't recommend this) and at a certain point I even started feeling weak and tired. Though, I'm not planning to lose any more weight so I consistently run but I can now eat whatever I want, maintining my weight and enjoying what I do ;)
An apple tastes different after an hour on the treadmill , it tastes like food from high Heaven, handpicked by God himself.
And that's the hardest part of weight loss.
Man you reminded me of Aport apples from Tian Shan mountains (apparently where apples came from) size of a melon and taste unbelievable. Tackled it on empty stomach, didn't get through half. All other apples are pretty much tasteless in comparison
soo trueee

I love running. Has been a major key to slimming my belly.
I would like to suggest you not leave running when you get slimming belly because fat is gone quickly in the body and come twice speed than gone..... 😂😂😂😂😂
I’m far more intuitive than analytical about my weight loss journey. And my weight loss is lead by training, both running/walking and weight training. When I’m active, particularly vigorous activity, my body naturally cues me to seek healthy foods. If I’m idle for a day or two I feel a draw toward less healthy eating. I suspect that I could lose faster if I were to be more analytical, but this is working for me. I’ve lost 20 pounds in 5 months. My current target is to lose a total of as much as 60 pounds. But I’ll see how my body is doing as I get closer to the goal. This weight loss would get me down to a weight I haven’t seen since my 20s. I’m not sure it will be a healthy weight for me now. That’s really my goal, a healthy weight level that my body can agree with. My time horizon is as much as two years. I would not be disappointed if it took three. I’m not in a hurry, but when I get there I want it to be permanent.
I enjoyed this video and learned from it, thank you. I took up running 2 months ago (going from a completely sedentary life, to walking, to walk/jog, and now I am able to cover 6 km in 1 hour by walking half of it and running half of it). Consistency really is key. However, I've noticed that I have not lost a single lb and that's because I am not watching what I eat. I really do need to count my calories and use caution with my daily eating habits - then coupled with running, I will see a change. Before my running journey started, I lost 16 lbs by ONLY counting my calories (no exercise). Running is like free therapy for me - it's very tough to do and my whole body hurts, but it reduces my stress and I just love it. Weight loss is an added bonus of running, if done right.
A few things to note
1. running in zone 1 / zone 2 will be more effective at burning fat than zones 3 and above
2. carbohydrates are not evil. if you go without carbs you will have less energy to run effectively
3. don't be calorie/joule deficient to the extreme. doing so will put your body in to a type of "survival" mode in which the body assumes that you are starving to death and therefore stores extra fat
4. find out your BMR - base metabolic rate (not your BMI). BMR is simply the number of calories/joules needed to simply survive for 24 hours (say if you woke up and didnt move from your bed all day - didnt open your eyes, eat, drink, talk or move).
Also, your body needs carbs to process protein. And fruit and vegetables are carbs, as are pulses! I *hate* all the uninformed anti-carb propaganda!
Incorrect,running at any speed is almost entirely carbs unless you are on a low carb,high fat diet.
@@scarred10 I agree that carbs will be used for any running pace however if you would be kind enough to refer back to point 1
*"1. running in zone 1 / zone 2 will be more effective at burning fat than zones 3 and above"* you will see that I wrote about zones 1 & 2 being more effective at fat burning than the higher zones - simply because you don't have such an urgent need for a quick energy release. This is one of the reasons why energy gels tend to contain a few different forms of sugar (eg glucose, fructose, maltodextrin etc) as they release energy at different rates, negating the chance of an energy spike and then crash.
And I think point 2 shows that I am not "anti carb"
Thank you for your attention though. I appreciate the time that you took to reply.
The video is correct in every way. As someone that did use running to lose from 22 to 16 stone. I can’t emphasis enough how important it is to get the diet right and if you want to run, find your goal weight and don’t stop the diet or run until you get there, I did several half iron man length tris at 16 stone snd let me tell you every part of the running, cycling snd swimming is made that much harder with every pound you carry. Even on the flats cycling is made harder being ever weight, not to mention the impact on joints and spine from running while over weight. You lose weight in the kitchen but if you must this video is correct. Especially the gym work, I did solid running to train and feel I really missed a trick not strengthening the core muscles but again I was always fighting an up hill battle carrying the weight.
@@TruTube.1. haha 😆 not sure what this is a call out for. I simply replied with my experience. You are right though I do not do triathlon any more not after spine surgery on 2 levels which ended my running combined with my business taking up more time. I spent a large amount of time doing triathlon, it’s not something you can easily switch off just so you don’t offend who ever the hell you are on a you tube channel, it’s not an easy sport for any one over weight to get into, the majority of coaches not having any clue how to training someone that weight because they would never ever let themselves get to it, hence have no knowledge and any training plan can not be applied. Everything is harder, everything hurts more. Having done it I highly recommend losing weight prior too exercising, but if you must the above vid is correct. You run walk, swimming as much as possible. Keep cycle sessions short with a day in between to let the ass recover from the pressure of your weight on the cycle. Remember I’m talking about a weight level that most watchers of this channel couldn’t comprehend and I hope the never have too. I completed outlaw holkham half in 5hr35 which was my first half distance Tri, not a bad time in my opinion for 16 stone and a first go. It required about 3 years of training and weight loss to get to that stage of being able to enter, up to that point I did the usual progress from sprint to standard. If I had been goal weight of 12 stone it would have been a shed load faster.
@@TruTube.1. What's wrong with Airsoft?
@@TruTube.1. Random and uncalled for.
Great video. I'm ashamed to admit that I've become the very thing I swore to never be, over weight. Particularly in my tummy. I was always very lean and muscular, quite the athlete, but I let myself go. I dont have excuses, it I what it is. My plan of action is now to run consistently, diet, and do weight training. I'm 25 now and I can feel my body wants to reach its full potential
500 calories are equivalent to 70-72grs approx. of fat ... That stimulates the mind a lot, because if you achieve 500 deficit calories a day in 1 week, that's 500 grams of fat that you get out of your body.
Wish i had a mathematical head…
I put away about 300 calories of nuts and bread while watching this 5 minute video ! 💪🏃♂️
Mmmm bread...
Simple to understand, sounds easy enough to do... thanks again Heather...Also I run, simply because I llike to run,bike, and be outdoors. Weightloss is a plus for me, loosing weight again, running and cycling more often.
Great video. Absolutely spot on in its advice. You could swap the word running for almost any other sport and it still holds true.

3 years ago I Lost 50 pounds let me tell you how I did it and why I did it, I am a diabetic and have hypertension at 67 years old male, I was keeping my weight at 220 for a long time with no problem it looked good on me for my height of 6'2'' then after retiring from NYC Dept of Sanitation my weight went to 240 pounds then I was starting to slow down I went to my doctor he strongly advise me to lose weight for my health sake so when he told me that I got serious about my health what I did was changed my whole diet gave up fried foods, white sugar, sodas, rice, cut my starch intake way down no potatoes at all, I started eating veggies like spinach and broccoli , bake chicken , turkey meat, no red meat or pork, lots of water no juices, then I got on the tread mill and did fast pace walking then running at the end for 30mins a day so then I look at the scale after one week nothing was happening I was getting upset then something told me to check the scale after one month so I kept working out then when I check the scale after one month my weight went from 240 down to 225 I had lost 15 pounds I was shocked and happy at the same time then it was getting good to me I kept running then after two weeks I was down to 215 then it was time for me to go back to my doctor, he was very pleased with me losing the weight and I felt much much better I had a lot of energy, right now I am at 205 no treadmill just diet and calisthenics and weight lifting, I strongly advise you to not run on concrete jogging on concrete will destroy your knee ligaments and in the long run you will ruin your knees I will advise you to run in a gym or on a treadmill or a dirt road , concrete does not give and the pounding will do damage to your knees in the long run so don't do it save those knees, good luck with your weight loss u can do it.
Great video, nice to hear that after hearing so many people that are saying that running doesn't help in weight loss
the best way is to just go out and do it. everyday. no excuse. eat a paleo diet, drink water, sleep well and reduce your stress levels. but watch what you're eating. play your favorite songs on your earbuds and just have fun. run 30 mins once you adapted you'll pull off 1-3 hrs, more determined? run twice a day early in the morning when it's cool outside, stay hydrated, if tired from work? go for a long walk out everyday afterwork it is as effected as running just a slower paste. have fun and do not stress about it. make it the best habit reflex for yourself.
i do intermittent fasting..eat a maximum of twice a day...sometimes breakfast and dinner, other days just dinner, but i have lots of tea during the day..no snacks..i .eat tons of clean carbs a bit of fat and not very much meat ...and i have been doing running about 3 to 4 times a week and have gone from 100kg to 86kg in 3 months
some runs were just 10 minutes at first ..then i pushed some to 20 minutes...now i do 25 minutes most runs and sometimes 35 minutes...
eventually i intend to do a run for about 1 hour or more once a fortnight.
thats 14 kg lost...still got to lose another 8kgs before i am fighting fit ...but im in phase 2 now ..which is going from 87kg to 82kg...and after that phase 3 is going from 82kg to 78kg which is well within my normal bmi....ps phase 1 was going from 100kg to 87kg which is a full 2 stone gone ..
i use phases, to keep it interesting...as when i lost a full 2 stone i felt like i had achieved but body still looks fat...so i started getting impatient and nearly lost hope...so i started phase 2..so now its like i am beginning the weight loss program again...which erradicated the impatience, its like im at the start of phase 2 ...so lets do this..kind of thing. ...a new beginning.
Is there a better feeling than eating a pizza without a guilt knowing that it wouldn't mess up your fitness plans? Agoge Diet thank you for everything!
"Is there a better feeling than eating a pizza without a guilt knowing that it wouldn't mess up your fitness plans"
- Personally I'd prefer a banana and blueberry full cream milk smoothie. Healthier, full of carbs and will give you more sustained energy to run longer. Plus you're body doesn't have to process all the fat that a pizza will give you.
The tip about quality food is a good one. Not all calories are equal. Smash a huge bowl of fruit, still feel shredded the following day. Junk food's negative effect is obvious once fit.
I take a date (dryfruit) before running. And I run constantly for 30 minutes with no break, no water sips.
How many dates do u eat before running?
I love running even though I get tired in one minute. But i just love it. It makes me feel free.
Day 1- 29|5|2023 ,88 kgs. Felt very happy after walking 4kms and 4 kms running .
Day 2-30|5|2023,88kgs. Same as day 1.
You got this ♥️
Thanks for mentioning the walk-run method. I feel like I am on the right track. I mostly start walking because of pain in my lower legs, not really because of exhaustion
Lipolysis (burning fats for their energy) starts after 1 hour of activity if the muscles are pumped with glycogen. That does not change the fact, that if you eat less cals than what you're using, you'll eventually burn up the stores. But interestingly it's not directly the running (
Run 5km (3 miles) 5 times a week and eat 1200 calories a day. Keep it mostly protein and avoid carbs. Men you will loose weight at any weight. Gyms memberships are good because it does rain. I also work shiftwork and it not safe for me to run on the streets at 3am. The only people running around here at 3am are people running away from the cops. I highly advice buy a quality per of running shoes. I mean real running shoes design for runners. You need to go to a sports store and ask for them. You know they are real running shoes because they will feel very springy and different then normal sneakers. This is a must if you are running on hard surfaces. A good pair will set you back about $200USD but you can find cheaper ones if you buy the previous years design. Buy the best pair you can afford. Your ankles will say thankyou.
I lost 45 kiloes and running helped me alot, I believe 😊
Good job
Oh daamn, nice!
Well done 👏🏻👏🏻
Great video! I am just starting out on my weight loss journey on my RUclips channel and I am trying to learn as much as I possibly can about weight loss. This video helped me a TON with understanding how running can help me lose weight!! I am subscribed and in for the journey! Thank you so much for putting this content out there and I can’t wait to start my running regiment!!
I am running in my zone 2 heart rate when I run. I feel like i'm going at a turtle pace 😩. But I'm hoping over time my heart rate will go down and I can run longer. My runs are usually 30 minutes long
Great video. I have experience with this as since March I dropped 70 lbs by running and watching what I eat. I started run walking and keeping the intensity low so I could consistently run 4-5 times a week. I would use my fitness pal and add the active calories from my Garmin. I would then maintain a 700 calorie defect. I know both my fitness pal and Garmin are not 💯 accurate, but it's better to be consistently inaccurate then not consistent at all.
Hope this helps people
Omg! That’s awesome! I should follow your pattern. I have done some exercises within 3 years which mostly at the gym and shred 80 lbs so far.
But your journey with running is amazing. I started to jog august last year with only twice a week, now I do 5-6 times a week but more like a jog for me.. I don’t run. Keeping my pace 7-8 mins per km seems okay for me (age etc).
Only today, I start to watch my food again ... Another 20-25 lbs to my weight goal. Hope I can be at least 30% as good as you.
Oh I do jog 5-6 km every morning with another 4-5 km walk. Seems this whole jog and walk helps me to shred my lower body volume faster than cycling or weight training. Well at least on me.
May I know how much total calories you eat one day or if you have any particular diet. Pls share if you don’t mind. Thank you
@@rinsoe525 congrats on your accomplishments. That is amazing!!!
Sounds like you are doing everything great. Typically I eat 2,400 calories a day. I just eat low calorie high volume foods. The guy on RUclips that helped me rethink eating is Greg Douxette. He is a bodybuilder and huge personality. If you can get past that he has great information. It's the only "diet" that I have found sustainable. Also when I say run I'm typically at 7min a km, so give yourself credit.
Keep up the great work!!!
Ah I got the idea and I will check the RUclips channel that you suggest. Whoa! I even eat less than you but well oh well, maybe it’s because of my age and that maybe it’s something hormonal😀😀 but hey, I won’t give up. Thanks a lot, stay safe and healthy
@@rinsoe525 keep in mind I'm 6'1 and 220 lbs which contribute to my calorie intake. Google TDEE calc. Put in your information and it will give you calories based on that. I tend to go in a 500-700 calorie deficit based on that. It's slow but sustainable. I am now dropping.5-1 pound a week which is what I like.
5’3 with 166 lbs, based on TDEE I need 2379 calories one day. I want slow but steady weight loss too. I had lotsa plateaus and sure will have many more. Something wrong with me, eating less but still not easy losing weight. God I need miracles 😀
Look up lower calorie versions of your favorite foods. Eating low calorie dense foods is key for sustainable weight loss. You'll never feel hungry, you'll enjoy what you eat, and you'll lose weight like clockwork. Oh, and running helps 😉
The calorie burning stage occurs whenever your body repairs and rebuilds damaged muscle tissue. Some people think the opposite.
This was very helpful 😊
20lbs lost during last 60 days(2lb per week)....average 0:30-1 hour run day....but still remain lot to do..but..mainly..feel much better and healthier
Hi. I wanna start running, but i am scared that it does not lead to any kind of pain, because i have no stamina and i am totally a non sports person. So can you suggest me something which can help me to start with running.
Some great tips there thank you 😊
I run to lose and maintain weight but I also love to be competitive at running which helps with motivation
If you're trying to lose weight integrate cycling for the lower impact and ability to go for an extended period
Great little tip! 🙌
Great video with plenty of information on running and weight loss. Lost a bunch of weight with running once the pandemic lockdowns started. More exercise and less eating!

You give good tips and you should also say in Starting run slow build stamina then you increase your intensity.....
Great video! As much as I love swimming, running is definitely the best for weight loss and overall aerobic fitness
Swimming is a better calorie burner than running.
@@darrenkelly7271 I would argue that although swimming uses a more diverse range of muscles, it won't raise the heart rate as much as running does due to the fact that running is weight bearing and you're fighting against gravity, GTN did a video about this about a year ago I think and they found that overall running burned more calories than swimming.
@@peterritchie2554 I would argue swimming raises the heart rate as much as, or more than running. Say your a beginner at running, your pace won't be that fast. But with swimming, you will thrash out length after length with your heart pounding. Again it's all personal preference, but if we can do both swimming and running that we'll be calorie burning furnaces.
@@darrenkelly7271 just to add my two cents :) I have never been able to run because I found it too boring or strenuous. This year I took up swimming, and for the past 3 months have been in the pool pretty much every day of the week. Last night, because the pools are now shut again, I went for a long walk, but in the middle of it, felt like running, and have to admit I managed to run for about 7 minutes without feeling any discomfort. I think swimming has helped build my stamina in addition to also shedding about 8 kilos of weight in this time. My thighs and calves have never been this muscly! So, in a weird turn of events swimming seems to have prepared me for running haha.
After the lockdown I can't wait to enjoy both!
Running burns more over a short term. Swimming is easier on the body, less chance for injuries and easier for recovery

I've been stable weight for years, the minute I started marathon training (while also cycling and swimming) I started losing weight again.
There's nothing quite like running 50-60km a week to lose weight, especially if you already have an ok diet.
Did you film this in Stamford, UK?
Please don't be mad at me, but I worked with a bodybuilder. He talked about his Friday night meal when he was in training, it was 3 large pizzas that he ate and was still hungry. I mean, OK, I can't do that but it is funny how different activities and goals and desires can affect our results.
How many 30 mins runs a week to be able to lose 4kg in weight
Thanks so much 👍
Great video! Would you do a comparison video or an analysis video on minimalist/barefoot shoes running? Looking at the pros and cons. Maybe compare to regular running shoes.
Filmed in glorious Bath 😃
I completed the Couch To 5k program last year and got into a really good routine, and lost a decent amount of weight, up until I sprained my ankle just before Christmas. Thankfully, I didn’t lose too much fitness and I’m back to training to increase my pace. I can manage 5-6km running without stopping, now I want to get fast.
If you want to loose weight, be a little hungry everyday. And when you are hungry make sure to not grab that snack but wait until some proper food is available. Running to do anything but fun is silly. Have fun the rest will happen.

indoor bikes are the best way to help weight loss for me at least with shin splints and cevers disease on an indoor bike i can get over 400 cals burned in 30 minutes consistently
Fibre in poultry and fish? That's new to me
I weighed 51.9 and i am now 50.7. How do i not lose anymore weight and still continue to run please? I only run for 30 minutes 3 days a week. Thanks.
Thx fr the tips
When is best time ? In the morning or later in the evening to run
Still no idea why i look at weight loss video's but thanks for this one
Thankyou for the tips! I have not long been running again, due to a 'plantar facilitis' injury! I have a triathlon event to look forward to on the 22/02/22 🤸♂️
How did it go?
@@mastermaster394Unfortunately the event was canceled due to
Covid Restrictions 😒
Running triggers my migraines. Is there anything I can do to avoid having a headache later in the day after my run?
What in your opinion do you think of long duration(1 hour) moderate to high intensity for weight loss specifically? Too long?
Thanks 😊
Great video
I have been running 8 km for 20 days ,lost 2.5 kgs,but my gym trainer asked me not to run anymore saying I am loosing muscle weight also. So do we loose muscle weight also?
You look like someone who would be a perfect character for Alloy's mother figure
well I'm surprised to find out that I actually lose 0.5-0.7kg every time after running for 21.3km
I believe the loss are from water lost through respiration and breathing, but more from the actual "burning" of fuel as the body converts what we ate into energy... and in breaking down glucose we get CO2 (which we exhale), H2O and ATP for the muscles
What a bizarre thought, that we get lighter with every exhale, just from expelling the carbon that came from the carbohydrates we eat
Gee, I lose 2kg or 3kg in sweat in a 30-minute 4-mile run!
Enjoyable tips
Yup,best exercise
you are awesome mam , loads of love from india.
I've been training for a year now, 2-3 runs a week, I still feel the need to walk and rest a bit after 1.5 km hmphhh
Start increasing your length of run gradually. I started by running 500 mts, then increasing it gradually to 600 mts, 700 mts etc. Now, I run 5 kms daily without a stop or need to walk.
After a year of training all I can say is that you aren't training! You are just going through the motions but you are definitely not training. To train you need to have incrementally harder goals (10% every 3-4 weeks).
@@GodzillaGoesGaga I've since upped my pace, might also have to do with running faster in summer vs winter
I am running for more than a year now. However, I am unable to increase my speed. I have watched your videos on speed increasing work outs like speed run, tempo run but not being able to increase. My peak speed is very close to my normal running speed which is low. My peak speed for .25km is 6.5 min per km and normal speed is approx 7.5 min per km for 7 kms. Any tips?
Hi Heather! Great video! One thing I'm a little puzzled by is should my daily calorie intake remain the same everyday for weight/fat loss? I'm on around 2600kcal for a run day so should this be the same on a rest day? Thanks in advance! Keep up the good work!!!
