It takes me 6 minutes to get out of bed, much less run a mile.
Its funny that you are fat and out of shape? Grow up dude stop being a pathetic loser, nothing funny about being out of shape.
@The Fall of New Babylon Almost worse, stupid, not clever or funny. Tired dumb "joke"
@The Fall of New Babylon i thought it was funny pal (:
so much for this guy spreading negativity towards people?
How do you this guy is fat and out of shape? Stop assuming.
Tim O'Brien lmao lighten up you fucking try hard!
My fastest mile is 5: 33 im 135 pounds and 13 years old
Balancing strength and endurance training is a constant challenge for me. I am a firm believer that running should be part of a total fitness program though.
So many great benefits
Give it 10 or 15 years.. running isn't safe for everyone over long periods of time
From an evolutionary standpoint running should be more primary than strength training. When it was time to eat or not be eaten, the lower body response wasn't to start squatting heavy rocks.
@@MaximusTCR running 100 yards from an attacking animal is much different than todays runners logging 20-50+ miles a week.. week after week, year after year.. running has a very high injury rate over the long term.
@@Idiotsincarshere I agree that running usually does inevitably beget some injury, but in my experience you recover and that particular injury usually never returns. You should read about the "endurance running hypothesis" which theorizes that the evolution of certain human characteristics can be explained as adaptations to long distance running. It is still a working theory, but it sounds convincing to me.
A year later and he's running a 4:53 PB. Love following this journey.
Linus Osorio yeah it’s awesome to see the progress.. he did have to cut weight to 195 though with all the miles he puts in.
He’s running a marathon trying to go for three hours Time.he needs to at least 170 or175 pounds...
@@shawnliu4475 No, he doesn't have to weigh that
Sub 5min is insane. Congratulations man!
OMG he went down by 1 minute in 1 year!? Incredible.
This is not surprising when he mentions that he ran cross country in high school. They put in serious mileage (any kind of long distance track team in high school) so from an early age he built up his Aerobic base. When he joined the Army he basically did what's considered speed workouts with the repeats. THAT is why he's able to still do 6 min/miles at 225. Also he's not an ordinary 225, that's 225 muscles, not fat. The guy's fit.
Kudos though.
Can confirm, we put in a lot of miles. I personally put in around 30 miles a week during the season and 30-40 offseason.
Kypro 30-40 is low mileage for a high school team, sorry to break it to you. 40-50 in season is medium, 50+ is “serious mileage”
@@vividparadox7268 Quality over quantity. All miles are not equal.
MikeDunn I didn’t knock quality miles, I do low quantity, quality miles. But even if it’s quality, 30-40 is still low mileage.
@@vividparadox7268 Doesn't mean anything as mileage is not the be all, end all.
Awesome job Preston. He is proving that there is always room for improvement. He is making it happen.
Is a 8min mile at 240 a good time ? I’ve been running to loose weight, I started at around 360.
Absolutely
Hell yeah
Heck yeah it is
Jesus bro that is amazing you could littery make a person with that lost weight! You deserve a medal or something! Keep it up you inspirational son of Hercules
I'm same time and weight, didn't start at 360 tho so I don't have an excuse for not being faster 😂 That's incredible bro, well done
I’m 205 and can only do an 8 minute mile. I use to only be able to do a 10, 6 months ago. I’m making some progress.

Justin Morgan same boat good stuff man 👍🏼
@@NightFallv1 Thanks bro! You too!
keep it up man, that's some awesome progress
hell yea dude.
I was running 2-3 miles everyday at 220lbs and on my 16th day in a row I fucked up my foot and now I’m gonna need surgery. I was starting to love running and now I can’t.
With respect to leg strengthening for running: After running on paved surfaces as training for road races for about 6 months, I started running off road on trails, grass, in forests etc... to train for some trail runs. The uneven terrain running not only taxed my core more as maintaining balance became more of an issue but in particular further strengthened my ankles and calves as the increased need for stabilization enhanced muscle recruitment in those areas. So when not working on VO2, mixing in some off road running might help with the leg strengthening. Also running through nature is a nice change of environment.
Also, if you're running high mileage it takes a lot of pounding off your legs! Running on pavement isn't the best for your legs and if you start putting in multiple 50+ mile weeks you could find yourself with a stress fracture! Trails and grass are great ways to still get miles in without the taxing on your legs!
@@sammyjfleisch4675 Definitely. I was doing 18:20 5k's when I was 27 in the military at 200lbs. 10 years later I had gotten back down to a 21:35 5k at 180lb but running on city streets and playing tennis and basketball several times per week my first cartilage tear a few months ago. Waited until knee was back to 90% and started light running on city streets. Stopped immediately. Running on dirt road and gravel mountains tracks seems to be totally fine so long as don't go crazy on distance or running downhill and back to 24:something 5k after a couple months zero running and very little cardio activity.
Great point, additionally to further strengthen your legs and feet minimal or barefoot running is recommended. Its taken some time myself to adapt to a minimal sole, but my arch is so strong now. I use Vivobarefoot....
@@sammyjfleisch4675 thanks for the information I was wondering why I was having knee pain after running 40 miles on pavement and public sideroads
Focus on maintaining a cadence, and on running smoothly as you warm up
mechanics would also take off a lot of time instantly. it may be hard to keep a certain form for a mile+ at first but with practice it'll become easy
I once ran a mile at 250 lbs., that's how long it took me to catch up to the ice cream truck.

I appreciate the time and effort including the video documentary along with video tips. I include running as part of my losing weight training. I'll be working harder at it to obtain 6 minutes. Gotta get myself back into run shape, preparing for LEO training later in the year.

Excellent chaps! I am an old fella that runs. The comment on VO2 max and cardio work all made sense. Very impressed, and will follow advise on the flat out 400m!! Cheers
Good stuff, comments on the last video were flooded with skepticism. Glad you did another one just to prove that you are practicing what you're preachin.

It bothers me a little that he's not using a real lane.
Chad dont care
I’m around 254 pounds and I’m running a 7-7:30 mile. I’m training for a marathon as well. I attribute my ability to run long distances at a sustainably quick pace to consistent conditioning, lots of hiit workouts, strength and mental toughness. And I agree that if you want to get better at running you really need to get out there and pound the pavement
That’s amazing

I'm right there with you man. 260 lb and I'm training to hit a 6 minute mile in the next couple weeks. Last time I ran all out I got a 6:50 that was a couple months of hard training back.
Wish me luck.

Love the EF compression shorts! You guys are beasts by the way!!!
Thanks for the tips Nick. I used to do the same strategy as well. Worked for the most part, for me.
I ran a mile in 6 minutes when I was 12. That's my PR to this day.
Same! I ran a sub 6 minute mile all through middle school and then just kinda assumed every time I went jogging in adulthood I was hitting the same pace. Joined the Marine Corps and it turns out I’m nowhere near the lean kid I once was!

Have you considered getting a Garmin watch to help track your progress Nick? I never see you use one.
I like how you don't engage with the haters and just prove them wrong in another video.
I feel a lot of the people complaining from the last video are either runners who don't seriously lift or lifters who think running kills muscle, so they just avoid it
Thanks for the advice. I'm enlisting in n October, and cardio is my weakest link right now.
EASY, just train by running 85 second quarters and then slowly string them together.

How to run a 6 min mile at 225lbs.
*Step 1: Be Nick Bare*
Do you get shin splints? And I just signed a airborne ranger contract so I’m running like crazy when I’m clearly outta shape.
Great way to challenge yourself and get healthy at the same time. Love this kind of stuff. thanks for the video.
very cool. thanks for making a video for us heavier runners!
Oh wow, thats where I went to school. Right before you mentioned it, I knew it looked familiar. Go Dragons!
My shop gunny did the same thing running us past our hangar when we thought we were done, we were actually still going another mile.
I liked the story-time while the run was going on idea for the video, clever! (I wasn't one of the doubters about the mile.)
Just came across your video and I know this is an old discussion. I am just turning 50 and weigh about 223lbs. I did 5:59 on a treadmill at 1% incline last week and did a 5:46 a few years ago. I feel the treadmill is easier than outside running of course, especially in the home stretch to close it out, BUT, I am so happy to be at this point at this age. I was always an athlete but never a runner until now. Thank you!
Something about recording yourself that makes you wanna work harder..it's like your trying to prove the world how strong you are..
"Round Rock High School" *flips desk* go to cedar ridge next time please
very good guys! I weigh about that much too and I am training for a marathon in about a year. I can't run a mile that fast, but this is an encouraging video. Thanks! I don't run sprints because I am worried about damaging a muscle or tendon (I'm 44 years old), but I find that my Vo2 max is improving from giving it on all (some of) my runs. I don't run shorter than a 10k in my training, but I find that going all out on even those runs really gives the lungs a work out.
Good luck with the race keeps us posted!!
Out running 200 pounders was the best part of my military experience.
T1Oracle outlifting all y’all would be fun.
Might be a different story if we were running with packs on though
@@brandonl1541 being the strongest guy in the room just makes you the biggest target being big is only good for intimidating ppl at the end of the day someone can still shoot you and they don't need to be able to curl anything more than a couple pounds to do so
@@andrewgiegerich7098 you're in the same room as someone, the biggest guy wins. Also you can move your gear easier.
By your logic there's no difference between a 300 lbs 4'6 woman and Arnold Schwarzenegger because they both die when shot.
If you cant run slick fast, cant ruck within the socom standard, and cant run with your loadout (lets call that for direct action work), then you are useless regardless of size.
this is not a how-to, it's a "how i fumbled my way through it". RUclips is riddled with this kind of crappy approach.
I love that you managed to do it, glad you are able and willing to take this platform to talk about it, but please don't label it a 'how to'. More of an retrospective vlog layered on a 'watch me do it today'.
David Harrison 100%
It's definitely not a crappy approach.
Ive been training from a novice who couldn't run a mile to running 6 miles none stop in 4 months using interval training like 30-30s and sprint work.
More motivational if anything. It's definitely not a step by step how to but it was proof that he can do it and it was weeks or months of hard work that paid off for him to show it. This dude can run faster than me and i'm 50 lbs lighter.
He literally gave exercises you can do to increase leg muscles and cardiovascular system. That was his How-To. The rest of the time hes was defending himself against the people who said he couldnt do it by proving a backstory on WHY hes so good at running
The method he describes is called polarized training. Also described as 80/20 training where 80% of your milage is done at low intensity (zone 1 or 2) and the rest is high intensity intervals (zone 4 or above). Most people's problem is that they think it has to be hard all the time so they don't get the true endurance benefits of low and slow that most of those starting out needs.
thanks needed this start playing in a mens soccer league next ekk and have been lazy af this winter heading in need to boost that cardio quick
Good way to look at running is like a car, Vo2max is the size of the engine, AT training are the gears (more gears the better) and AeT training is more like the chassis, strong chassis can hold a big engine, so dividing training up into 80/20 is the best formula.
I’m 6’3 and was 214 a month ago when I last weighed myself before starting my marathon training. Doing a mile test again this Friday and also weighing myself. Pretty sure I’ve lost about 20 lbs and will break 6 minutes. I love videos like this! Motivates me all over again to push the limits.
i always get a good laugh watching big body builders run. they look so out of their element lol.
Loved this - great motivation
Wow mate excellent bud I was a runner in British marines recon Tp we always ran before PT we mostly had racing snakes 🐍 in the troop ..but your time is mega nick
When I was in The Corps (whose max PFT score requires a 3 mile run in under 18 minutes) I ran a 17:22 3 mile run...but that was a long time ago and I was only 18 at the time and at 5'11" I weighed about 165 lbs.
Thats still crazy man amazing job!
@Bob Donald That's an interesting comment as I started at LCB on my H.S. varsity football team and was the 2nd fastest player on the team...ran a 4.5 40 on grass in cleats. Didn't run cross country in H.S. so other then running as a kid had never done any real distance running before I got to Parris Island...they never told us how far they ran you (as I said the PFT involved a 3 mile run) but I know we ran some pretty long distances in Phase 3 of boot. When I got home I went on a measured 8 mile run in the dead of summer in central Fl., and made it with no problem. Anyway that's a long reply to your comment hopefully there is something you can use.
@Bob Donald I'm 62 and still weigh what I weighed when I left Paris Island...168...actually I am probably several lbs down from that at this moment (I don't have a scale but my fave shorts are getting very lose lately). When I was younger I weighed up to 185 but that was when I was lifting and working out a lot and put on muscle pretty easy...these days if I eat enough to try that I end up with a spare tire...haha, so I limit my calories and workout less. But I still have an old Marine beach workout routine I do that is pretty brutal and still lift weights a couple times a week and slip some beach sprint workouts now and then...I've learned to moderate.
That is just about a 5K. damn good time. Nothing the matter with that.
Edward Whitlock at the age of 72 ran under a 3-hour marathon which is 6.50 a mile Google him and get the information
When he spoke of the leg muscles vs the cardio burnout in the lungs I was assured he knows what he's talking about
Or course running track then cross country you will know the difference once ran 3 800's in 1 track meet 1 was a relay.
By the last 800 I literally couldn't sprint most embarrassed I've been in sports upper body moving as hard as possible couldn't hardly get my legs to turnover though

Did you do it brother?
@@beattrixkiddo2725 Also curious
Way to go guys! Always amazes me to see beef cakes pacing out so fast. I read a book in high school, 'Bird on Basketball'. Bird claimed to do interval workouts at around 6 min. That's 220, 6-9. Wilt Chamberlain used to run marathons, they say. Amazing what will power can do.
Wassup nick am a huge fan of your channel and work ethic . I aspire to be you bro . Question I recently spoke to a marine recruiter because I do want to enlist . But I’m currently a bit over weight and told me to cut down to 220 I’m currently 235 . Any advice on how to cut , and how to improve endurance on my run because I am a big guy . Thank you so much nick you the best bro .💪🏽
First and foremost, thank you for your service! I am a big guy as well, love lifting free wights. I want to join the Police Academy and need to start running. I am 6'3" 230lbs and about 17% body fat. I am having a hard time finding a pair of running shoes that would be best and have read way too many reviews and difference in opinions. In your experience, what shoe should I be looking at?
Shoes really dont matter that much as you think they do. They're about 5% impactful. Do 2 long cardio sessions a week Mon, Fri(ex. jog 3 miles steady slow pace), 2 wind/hill/incline sprints a week, Tues thurs (sessions are 30 min MAX, ex. 5-8 hills runs up, walk down or treadmill 6.5mph @10 incline 1 min on 1 min off for 10 minutes (walk 10 min and see if you can do on more set after that) and 2 strength only days - wed, Saturday (bench day ex. Bench press, flies, incline db or dips, and back day, pullups, deadlift and biceps all in the 6-8 rep range for 3 sets each.
I personally right now enjoy weightlifting 5 times a week, but when I need to shape up for a prep program or fitness test, my body does well on just 2 times max weight training a week and jogging 3 times a week with the incline sprints thrown in as well. If you have extra cash to help you too, get creatine and fish oil. Those are a must and will shave off your perceived effort by almost a quarter of it all and boost your endurance for only like $15 a month. Well worth the investment over a training shoe.
Shoes will definitely matter if you have flat feet. Try some Mizunos or some Brooks.
I’m currently 270, a lot of it is muscle but at 6’1” I’m still a beefy boy. I’ve been running for awhile along with CrossFit and my best mile time so far has been 8:47. I know that’s pretty lackluster but for a guy that didn’t really start running until college I’m pretty proud of it.
Goal is 7:00 flat, so just gotta get after it and keep going.
Edward Whitlock at the age of 72 ran under a 3-hour marathon which is 6.50 a mile Google him and get the information
Yeah im not really much of a runner either but I believe that being able to run is important for fitness. My goal is anything under 7:00 so I'm pretty much in the same spot as you

Thanks crazy man, I just bought a house in Round Rock. Had no idea you were this close.
What's your best advice to avoid shin splints when starting to get back into running? Especially running at that weight, love the content man!
Stretching, proper warm up and cool down, stretching again lol
What Jeremy Baum said, as well as good form and the right shoes
Shin splints usually come from not stretching your calf muscles enough, the tight calf tends to pull the toes just a little extra every time you step off in your follow through, and that in-turn pulls hard on the shin muscle slowly ripping the connective tissue on little muscle away from the bone!
Also training volume and frequency plays a role. Take for example you never workout then decide to do as many pull ups as you can do in 5 minutes (maybe you do 50)....you will be sore as heck the next day. If instead you did 10 rep sets 5x throughout the entire day you will not be as sore the next day enabling you to hit the next workout again.
I would suggest building up your capability with patience. And increase frequency, stay away from a lot of volume in a short period although you will need to push yourself and some soreness is inevitable. After about 2-3 weeks you can continue to up the intensity/length of runs/volume of training, sooner or later you training volume will catch up to what your capable of but at the end of the day as long as you avoid those horrible training hindering shin splints you will make more progress this way.
I am not a avid runner but have years of experience in the gym and this seems the most logical to me based on how our bodies adapt to training volumes.
Should've left out the video of the track because no one can see the golf cart carrying you around to the top of the stretch. Info makes sense though
even the old videos I still learn so much!!!
What is your diet/ caffeine intake like prior to a run? I’m currently working on getting my run time down as well. Thanks
im around 210 and I can still run a sub 6:00 mile usually running anywhere from a 5:00-5:30 minutes. Just like you when I was skinny I ran cross country in high school for three years. Its crazy what your body can still withstand through muscle memory. Very cool Nick, I don't know how I haven't seen your channel before! Cool video

The amount of practice and hard work needed to progress really isn't that much, but if you really focus on it and go hard in your practices when you have them, improvement WILL come. I've had no other practice than the traditional cross country season and track season. Even with a full year and a half off of running because of COVID-19, I didn't have any other training than in practice during the season.

Freshman year of college I was 160. I started playing lacrosse in a club and improved my cardio tremendously. By the end of the year I was able to run 4 miles in 35 mins, but hated running. I decided to switch to weights and bulk up and man do I wish I had that cardio now
Yo if you can do 7 min pace for 6-7 miles like you said you could easily go under 5 I bet. Even with your mass!
Shane McNealy The jump from a sub 6 minute mile to a sub 5 minute mile is massive. I don’t think he actually can with his size, he’d have to go under 200.

NO-GO LT!!! You failed to complete 1 mile by 9 meters. You can try again Saturday morning.
My best time in my entire life (23 at the moment) was a 5:40 mile at 16 but I was training for wrestling everyday and we usually ran 3 miles a day. I wrestled at 160 but I weighed 175-180 outside of tournaments. The methods he recommends is great and it’s what I’m doing now to get back to it. Put some running shoes on, pop in some headphones and just go for as long as you can without burning yourself out then increase distance or reduce the time for the same distance.
Good times for big boys, 225 pounders. Running HS XC is a sure way to get fit and become a decent runner. You guys are still in your prime, running those time pushing 60..... Now that my friends will be a test.

Hey, all credit to you, man. Distance running is all about aerobic capacity, and you're right, it takes time and consistent work in addition to some speed and turnover work. Way to go!
Finally! Big guys running! I was your typical gym head and got the running bug last year. Did a 10 miler and I’d like to do a marathon. So, some qs for your guys, I’m 5’6, 210, lots of mass in my legs. Do we need to train differently than than the long lanky guys? I also don’t want to loose all my mass but I’m willing so sacrifice some as I’m not a hard gainer. I’ve steered away from maxing and free weights to doing pull ups and push ups for now. What else should big guys runners should keep in mind? We also have to train carefully as we are prone to shin splints and planter due to the poundage. Talk to me!
Hmmmm. 10mph for 6 minutes? Lol. I figured it out all by myself.
In my heyday before screwing up my knees (from jogging) when I jogged every week I was around 265lbs my best mile was 7:24

Edward Whitlock at the age of 72 ran under a 3-hour marathon which is 6.50 a mile Google him and get the information
Wow good stuff - I do a very similar type of training for Spartan races the only thing that I add is trails and hills. Not quite as fast as you.
Great video, I’m trying to get my mile and a 1/2 time down below 12 mins - any recommendations for training days? I was thinking 2-3 days running the mile and a 1/2 and doing body weight training like pushups, squats and pull ups, then maybe 2 days doing 10 sprints/ hill sprints - so like 5 days a week training. Thoughts ?
