Here are a 3 mistakes of mine that culminated to my current achilles injury: 1. Constantly running on pavement instead of soft surfaces (i.e., dirt trails) 2. Not giving enough recovery days between running. 3. Not performing post-run stretches What's healing my injury: 1. Self massage on achilles tendon 2. Compression 3. Calf-stretches 4. Soaking injury in warm water and epsom salt once a day.
That's a good list. We'd consider adding some foot and ankle strengthening exercises in there too. Our Injured Runner Program in the app is a great place to get some ideas.
Defnitely forgot to run for fun. The past few months, I have been wondering why I couldn't seem to get motivated to go out. I appreciate being called out. Now I will just have to go out for a gentle few miles and see if it feels better, no timer, no tracker, just me and the wind.
Cycling is really good for just feeling the fresh air and having fun. For me running is like a tv dinner. I only run when i dont have alot of time for cardio.
Okay, I think you've inspired me to FINALLY warm-up before every run. Ugh. Such a bad habit of zipping out the door and then not even stretching once I'm back!
@@arjun9thb517 Not me, it's just easier though, you don't feel stiff and sore, or even slightly insecure for the first 1000 metres, especially on difficult ground (mud, potholes, slush, snow, ice yep), slick and smooth like a baby gazelle. ;)
@@silkegehtyoutubegarnichtsa892 At no point when I'm running do I ever feel slick and smooth like a baby gazelle. That's for the people that are naturally built for it hahaha. I always feel like a schlub when I'm plodding along in my run and someone, usually a woman, just gliiiides on past me moving like the laws of gravity don't apply to her. Only thing I can take pride in is that I know I have to work that much harder for every mile than they do hahaha.
Don’t do what I just did this last weekend and run 13.1 miles after exclusively running 6 miles every other day for the past 2 months, work up to your long runs.
How do you feel? Most I've done is 11 miles after primarily running 4-6 miles for 3-4 times per week for 3 months (it was supposed to be 9 miles but I got lost on the trail). I felt sore and gave myself 3 days rest after that.
@@christianbondoc6732 I did a 3 mile recovery run (which was tough) 2 days after and tried to recovery stretching for the first time ever. The biggest challenge is that since then I have been constantly hungry since and eating an extra 1-2 full meals a day. I also have been on and off dizzy since then.
I have done 10 out of 10 mistakes. I’m glad there are others sharing their mistake/feedback to make us all better runners. Great tips, thanks Coach Nate!!
1. Ignoring pain 2. Ignoring good healthy habits (warm-ups, mobility training, strength training, etc) 3. Running at the same pace all the time 4. Ignoring running form 5. Following a running plan too closely 6. Focusing too much on the miles you run and comparing yourself with other runners 7. Overly supportive and overly cushy shoes 8. Running in incorrect or beat up shoes (like wearing running shoes even when not running) 10. Missing out on hydration 11. Sitting too much for extended periods of time
I'm not sure but ,if anyone else wants to uncover stretches to help prevent shin splints try Mackorny Run Fast Blueprint ( search on google )? It is a smashing exclusive guide for getting rid of shin splints without the hard work. Ive heard some amazing things about it and my colleague got cool success with it.
I always loved the idea of running. In high school I was always the last person finishing in gym class. This left me discouraged.. but I got over myself and now enjoy running every chance I get. I try to run 10 miles over the weekend and get some short runs in through the week. Running is a mind trip! Your body does not want to do it... but this is when your mind takes over! I may not be the fastest but I'm out there enjoying every minute of it! Thanks for this helpful post!!
I still run on pavement. I just hate going to the local high school to run in circles. Probably better because of the soft surface. I don’t warm up enough. I naturally jog slow
I just "discovered" you this morning, about 45 minutes before heading out for a run, and have already watched two of your videos. I couldn't hit SUBSCRIBE fast enough. Thank you!
shit bro, thats the motivation some people use to train, ironically some peoples best times on FULL marathons and even ULTRA'S have been achieved like this, it's not for everyone, just depends on your mindset. Some of my best timed runs were in the military, no sleep, and no notice. Motivation is just as much of it as anything else, and the pressure of time constraints and letting yourself down can be some powerful motivators. make it happen bro!
Amen!! in regards to mistake number one, I thought just resting would help my runners knee but it didn't. It is so much bigger. You really have to be active in your recovery and doing those exercises that will help you get stronger and increase mobility!! Thanks Coach Nate!!
At the beginning of my journey from couch to 5k I progressed to run around 8k, 10k four, sometimes five days a week. What was my mistake? I didn't eat enough. I was confused why suddenly I wanna eat more, and constantly felt guilty about that. Simply I just needed more energy. Same goes with the days you just wanna be a pancake, but even though you push yourself to run. Listen to your gut, it's an amazing, advanced computer in your body. Trust yourself.
Love this. Used to beat myself up about eating before or after a run. I used to only run fasted now I realize I do need that energy. And something that helps me get through it is literally just getting up and running. It burns off what I ate as energy and it only makes it easier to get out of that mindset
another important is: Just because you should 100% listen to your gut and eat when you feel the need, obviously make sure to not excuse that for a cheat day and just indulge in high salt/fat/or overall unhealthy foods
Such a timely video Nate! I was laughing hard because I'm totally hitting a wall with my running and I'm guilty of all of these things! I put way to much pressure on myself by comparing myself to others as well. Thanks so much for this wakeup call!
6:00 so true. Although I wasn’t comparing myself to others, I was putting too much pressure on myself to run 1 mile in under 10 minutes as I am a beginner. I always had my Apple Watch on me and would continuously glance at my watch to see the time and mileage. I no longer wear it and I feel free
If you don’t follow these tedious rules and can’t sustain running in the long run then losing weight will just be gained back due to injury and just not being able to run, there’s also differences in pains and you should get to know your body and what you can and can’t handle
Thanks. I am listening to the body. I'm doing about 10-15 miles a week right now. Adding some weight training and so forth. I'm slowly getting there. 295 lbs and running about 11 min/mile. 12 or so mins on a trail, where I do most of my running to help with not getting hurt.
Regarding #10, a saddle chair is a great help to open the hips (or keep them open). That with a standing desk both can prevent posture issues from sitting all day. Cheers!
Many people are doing wrong pace,running at fast pace all the times. That was my mistake too before. I am much aware of my heart rate zone level...❤️❤️❤️ No more injury, ,
I have really bad feet 3 surgeries and need more cushion.I just started running in the Hoka rincon but thanks for reminding me to not stick to such a heavily padded shoe. I know I could use to put on a light and mid range sole alternately 👍
Mistake I made: Get your downhill technique in check before attempting crazy ones. I did a super steep downhill in one of my early training ones, and I was all messed up on my form, but still went fast. One month of ITBS later and I'm back to square one with my training.
Thank you coach Nate. This is very important. I find your channel is really genuine and concerned about injury which is a very real problem , for elite or amateurs. Especially beginners. I had a bad ITBS last year. Hope new runners will watch this before they go further in training. Thanks coach. You're the best
I love the part of comparing towards others. We tend to compare ourseleves to the best, but in all honesty if you are exercising you are already doing way better than the general population which does little to no exercise and live sedentary lives.
I'm working construction full-time, taking three credits at my community College, and exercising/running. Sometimes I forget to stretch. Probably the most important thing.
i learned recently that using the proper shoe for the activity you are doing is very important!!! shaved 1.5 mins off my mile by switching to trail running shoes!! i had no idea!!!
The mistakes I made: not enough warm ups before runs, incorrect shoes and focusing too much on how long I run instead of just focusing on the way my body feels. I corrected all of those now. I still time myself on my run but I only start the timer now and forget about it. I used to check the time too often so that was kind of ruining the feeling of the run.
Funny how it's not just the exercise itself making us healthier, but the goal of running faster which forces us to choose better habits that we know are good, but usually are too lazy to do.
I have been running the past 6 months without warming up, stretching or cooling down or icing. Results? No pain, no injury, not even sore after long runs of 8 to 12 miles (non-stop) at 7:10/mile pace. I do 35 miles a week now and bumping up to 45-50 miles per week next month. I run about 5 days a week. I do fit in a speed and strength day, stride/tempo day, long run, etc. And yeah, I can still touch my toes just fine.
Made big mistake today. Forgot to charge headphones. Died halfway through so naturally had to stop and walk and default to posture outlined in your last mistake
I just ran 74 miles over three days making the majority of these mistakes and am totally fine, im sort of hoping for a small injury to put me in my place...
alot of the times you do funky stuff with the camera, also mistake 3 i was about to start doing because i kind of did my own thing which was precisely moving slow when i get exhausted then returning to fast pace once i catch my breath
I agree that a coffee in the morning isn't. a mistake. I add three times more milk in glass than I saw in the video and I have a big glass of water after. And coffee kicks after 20-40 min so it if you are a morning runner this is a perfect push before the trsining in my opinion.
Thank you! Could you do a video about all the aspects of mental and physical tiredness? I think it's something very common to deal with and also very complex to treat I guess...
Idk, I'm at 120kgs and I like to think I've corrected my form. My knees and ankles don't hurt after about 100 meters(I mean they would start hurting, they don't hurt much at all now even after 5kms). Also I just stretch lightly before going. Granted I'm only at about 9-10 minutes per km. So I'm slow but hey work in progress, ran my first 5km non stop yesterday after a week of running every day
Leaving the running watch at home! Great. I have the same thing with leaving the phone at home. You mention the app, and that it really helps, but the same is with the watch. Leave both at home. :-)
Thanks for the help! I’m a cross country running and I’m the captain of the team so I like finding videos like you’re breathing one! It me teach the team new strats that they may not of knew before!
Biggest one for me as a beginner was running too fast every time, didn't know how to slow down another big mistake was taking long strides instead of shorter steps once I fixed those two things, the improvement was like night and day
I use the zombie run app and if I miss a few days or a week (cause of girl issues) i will just go back a week to slowly form up my endurance again. I also have ankle issues so I need the extra support.
julide Sinja it’s like storyline where you are a runner for a town and have to go for supply runs and be chased by imaginary zombies! They also have a Dinosaur one I have done just waiting a few more days for all of them to be unlocked cause I am too poor to pay for the able club
Mistake 11:Stretching before workout,that actually cool down your nervous system making you slower.Doing dynamic stretching instead aka warmup to get your body ready
Yup, spot on. BITD when I was a kid, PE teachers would always tell us to stretch before running / weights. When I properly got into running in my teens (a looooong time ago, sadly, lol) and did some research, I realised that was the wrong advice! I never stretch before running OR weights, only after.
@@YeNZeC thank you for the advice, I'm in recovery/rehab so I've actually been mentally practicing for that method. My problem is when I'm in a good or for a long run I unknowingly start dropping my heel first but only on my left foot =(
Been running consistently with 3x Times week for the past 5 weeks. Just got some news shoes/arch support. Mistake 3 hits home I trying to be better with my pace. This a good vid. My form starts strong then by the end I’m always correct myself.
Good trick for better posture for running is to run in the dark with a headlight. Get in a good posture and adjust the light for ideal angle of seeing ahead and try it to keep there while running.
Wow! You know me! How do you know everything that I do - and don't do - and we've never met...have we? I'm guilty of almost ALL of these mistakes. Thanks for your help. Hopefully this will help me out of the "rough patch" that I've found myself in lately.
So I'm a beginner runner, but thankfully I'm not a beginner cyclist. What I mean by that is I learned a long time ago that trying to keep up with all my friends on Strava on the bike was just setting myself up for failure and disappointment. So when I started running, I just stuck to the plan from Garmin and progressed at my own pace. After all, I'm 56, 215 pounds, I haven't smoked in 9 years but I smoked for 34 years, and there are other individual factors as well. So trying to compare myself to a 30 year old who never smoked and weighs 150 pounds is just asking for trouble. Even most of the guys my age run faster than me, but they've been running for years. So I just do me, and appreciate the sun and the fresh air and the confidence I feel after a run. What I did need to learn was that while I'm training for these sprint triathlons (the reason I started running in the first place), I need to concede that I can't ride as hard and as often as I did when I was only cycling. I've got to find a workable balance between running and riding so that they both improve, and that's not an easy one to figure out.
Love your videos! I use the adidas running app. love it. One mistake that I often times slip into is "power running". I picked up a copy of the Book 'Chi Running' It talks about this idea of speed or power-through running. When we run in this way, it can stop the natural momentum of an otherwise forward leaning run. Chi running has changed the way I run! I used to run on my toes or heels... but with a mid-foot strike, it encourages you to use your whole body. Bout to head out for a run here in NOLA! #hotasballs. Thanks again for the video!
For number nine, thank goodness I don't drink coffee anyway! As for many of the points here, definitely worth assessing every once in a while! I do find that at least some of these points tend to get overlooked!
First time in my life I can say I'm a perfect 10! :)
Congratulations! You earned it
At least you have your humour!
bullshit lmao
Youre doing great man. No perfection in the world. But its good youre doing great

@@TheRunExperience Thanks! Will definitely look into it! 👍🏼

One mistake I think is causing my achilles strain - jumping to a 6mm drop from 10mm without ramping up the distance

Good point about overly, cushiony shoes.

Mobility, massage, ice and strenght are the way to go! Twice a week and not a single tough injury for two years already.
You have a cool name. Is your nickname OARBS=ORBS. One of my best friends is a Rodriguez! Peace.
This was so incredibly motivating, thank you for the wisdom. Love it!!! Keep doing what you do!!!!
I watching your videos to get ideas how to run efficiently from running form tips to proper hydration. Hoping to see more videos from this yt channel
i definitely jumped from running 4 miles to 6 miles. i definitely also always ignore my bathroom needs while on a run until i have no where to go
I went from 2 to 4 to 6 in a span of 2 weeks
@0:02 HA! I have those socks. They are Uncommon though.
One of the most helpful videos of running I’ve ever seen. Thanks!
Coffee is my jam before the run...I guess water with lemon 🥛will have to do.
So needed that!! Thank you very much!!
Great video, Nate. Perfectly done! I love it.
Mistake 11:Stretching before workout,that actually cool down your nervous system making you slower.Doing dynamic stretching instead aka warmup to get your body ready
Yup, spot on. BITD when I was a kid, PE teachers would always tell us to stretch before running / weights. When I properly got into running in my teens (a looooong time ago, sadly, lol) and did some research, I realised that was the wrong advice! I never stretch before running OR weights, only after.
I sprained my ankle a few weeks ago and ngl im defo probably pushing to hard to quick but Im so keen to be back training!
Great vid sadly for your mistake #7, I'm recovering from a bone spur at the back of my heel....so minimalist shoes might not be the best for me :(
Your forefoot is where you will be landing with a high cadence. Your heel should give a love tap to the floor
@@YeNZeC thank you for the advice, I'm in recovery/rehab so I've actually been mentally practicing for that method. My problem is when I'm in a good or for a long run I unknowingly start dropping my heel first but only on my left foot =(
Wow thank u ever so much for this video,it's insightful.We overlook the obvious n sometimes smaller things.
Loved that last one ! Thanks!
Totally agree lots of people still make these mistakes
Thank you!💚
I liked this; all sensible changes will help anyone.
I’ve made quite a few of them along the way.
Been running consistently with 3x Times week for the past 5 weeks. Just got some news shoes/arch support.
Mistake 3 hits home I trying to be better with my pace.
This a good vid. My form starts strong then by the end I’m always correct myself.
Good trick for better posture for running is to run in the dark with a headlight. Get in a good posture and adjust the light for ideal angle of seeing ahead and try it to keep there while running.
I'm doing all of these right now
Wow! You know me! How do you know everything that I do - and don't do - and we've never met...have we? I'm guilty of almost ALL of these mistakes. Thanks for your help. Hopefully this will help me out of the "rough patch" that I've found myself in lately.
Oh yeah, almost all of them! That shirt is epic, by the way!
It's TRUE about wearing shoes that are too supportive. I made that mistake. It took strength training to fix that.
So I'm a beginner runner, but thankfully I'm not a beginner cyclist. What I mean by that is I learned a long time ago that trying to keep up with all my friends on Strava on the bike was just setting myself up for failure and disappointment. So when I started running, I just stuck to the plan from Garmin and progressed at my own pace. After all, I'm 56, 215 pounds, I haven't smoked in 9 years but I smoked for 34 years, and there are other individual factors as well. So trying to compare myself to a 30 year old who never smoked and weighs 150 pounds is just asking for trouble. Even most of the guys my age run faster than me, but they've been running for years. So I just do me, and appreciate the sun and the fresh air and the confidence I feel after a run. What I did need to learn was that while I'm training for these sprint triathlons (the reason I started running in the first place), I need to concede that I can't ride as hard and as often as I did when I was only cycling. I've got to find a workable balance between running and riding so that they both improve, and that's not an easy one to figure out.
I love your GoPro Hero 8
Love your videos! I use the adidas running app. love it. One mistake that I often times slip into is "power running". I picked up a copy of the Book 'Chi Running' It talks about this idea of speed or power-through running. When we run in this way, it can stop the natural momentum of an otherwise forward leaning run. Chi running has changed the way I run! I used to run on my toes or heels... but with a mid-foot strike, it encourages you to use your whole body. Bout to head out for a run here in NOLA! #hotasballs. Thanks again for the video!
For number nine, thank goodness I don't drink coffee anyway!
As for many of the points here, definitely worth assessing every once in a while! I do find that at least some of these points tend to get overlooked!
Agreed. Our lives change and with that our habits need to be revisited!
I'm a beginner and your very informative 👌 thanks
Thanks for some really helpful information
Beginner here :)
Just found this channel, loving the content
Thank you for this! I’m recovering from chronic exertional compartment syndrome and I’m trying to get back into shape for cross country season 😃
Thank you for this :)
Great advice, great video
You are the best men i learn to run from now
Hello good video by the way.
Just a question, is walking for 20min before running is enough for a warm up?
Thanks in advance.
Just found the channel, awesome stuff
I have mixed feelings about this channel sometimes, but this is a great video. Lots of really solid advice here.
i need to try and do some streches beforee, cause after the run i tend to do them more :)
This videos was soo helpful. Thanks soo much! :)
Not warming up was my first major mistake. Heck, even when I hit the gym I don't until I'm sweating from the warmup.
