Join me as I push through a simple easy run and light hill session.
Start getting really good at just putting in work
Start trusting yourself, and follow a really simple process
The results will come
Ignore Strava
Ignore Instagram
Just put in work
Start adding this session once per week, and your running will thank you for it. Keep it simple, and see how your body progresses.
We are very fortunate to have someone like you on RUclips thanks!!
speaking of which does anyone have recommendations on more channels like this covering sports or skill acquisition and produced by elite performers in the field
Thanks for sharing. Simplicity and consistency are key; don't overthink it; get out there and do it.
Stephen, you probably won’t read it but I will still write my message! I tried to dm you in IG but it’s locked. Thank you for these videos, thank you for all the effort you put into production! You have charisma, you are interesting to listen to, the fact that you ran 2:09 is way less important then how you present your information and the motivation you provide! You make me go out there every day in rain, snow, heat and train for my sub 3, and I know I will get it, because I can’t let you down. If you can make all this content, I can push myself too!
Was thinking about this on my run today. I’ve been struggling in the high humidity and hr has been higher and pace slower but thought at least I’m out here putting in the work
Thanks for the video
Agreed. From TN and the heat has been brutal. It was definitely discouraging at first when my runs that I normally should have been at ~140bpm were around ~152bpm or higher. Almost makes me want to not look at the HR at all, but I also know it’s a valuable tool to avoid bonking.
@@CREEDxFMx been the exact same for me. Lived in California all my life and recently moved to Virginia
Congrats on getting the work in! Find the joy in slowing down in the summer 😊 lots of people say just ignore HR in the heat, but the HR is high for a reason and will impact recovery. Consistency is the hero!
@@taylorplante99 Thank you! I totally agree. I’ve been increasing the volume the past few weeks as well and it’s important to keep it low and have been slowing my pace down. I’m used to California weather so the humidity and heat so early in the morning has caught me by surprise so have been adjusting.
I love the soothing music in the background, almost like a podcast firing me up for the next run or fueling my mindset about my own progress in running - keep it up!
130 bpm at 4:00/Km
Lol Jesus Christ
I’m glad I’m not the only one oh one that noticed this. At that pace my heart rate would be over 170bpm.
Keeping things simple is the key. I have put a 5k goal time of 20min into my Garmin, where the "race day" is in November. From here to then, I am following the daily suggested workouts. This keeps it simple, but I know it's all going towards a goal down the line. Great video, Stephen!
Chris Williamson talked about something similar recently, called it the Optimisation Paradox: by trying so hard to optimize everything we can a) view everything as a means to an end and lose the joy in doing anything and b) the stress of trying to optimize creates its own problems
It's been on my mind to fit strength trading into the week well. I always have this concern about overdoing the effort in strength training and not being up to running for a few days. I tend to keep strength work light, because I enjoy the running. A video about this would help me address this mental game. Thanks
I always have the same dillema
@@user-gq8dp3md6s you can do it, just break it up to separate parts of the day like run in the morning and strength at night. Keep the reps low and weight light at first. I’m 43 and strength train in the afternoon on days I run in the morning, train legs on Mondays after my long run on Sunday, with intervals on Tuesdays.
I worried about the same at first, but it works for me. Take it slow and you’ll figure out what works best and how to incorporate it
For me simple consistency has been fantastic and paid of more than any other training tips and tricks. I stick to my weekly schedule without making big changes to volume or intensity, and little by little, week after week, I can see/measure the improvements. I do of course get those days where there is just no motivation (easy with this terrible 'summer' in the UK) but I always go out, even if I have to just make do with an easy run, but always do the full volume. It is always a great feeling not wanting to, but doing it all the same, and succeeding 😄
Thank you for your insight on running and the many different aspects that can have effects on individual performance. Awesome video 🏃
The best video about running on the internet. Thank you!
It's only boring if you make it boring in your own head. I love the boring days...
Thanks steven. A video on how to balance strength training in the gym with running sessions over 1 week would be most helpful.
Great stuff Scully... thanks a million,,,, as always... so good to hear simple stuff to keep us on track
Thanks Stephen, I needed to hear a lot of this.
I also have adhd and I've left myself with 3 months left to train for a 57 mile ultra having done no more than 1 marathon previously.
I train well but burn out because I don't recover properly. Sometimes you just need to hear a bit of common sense from someone who knows what they are talking about.
Very insightful, as always. On the flipside, the fact that you always add something in and "push" it might be part of the reason you are an Olympic runner... :)
I needed to hear this today. Not just for my running, but for everything. I feel like I can relax now and just focus on the few big, but simple, unsexy things. Thank you. 🙏
Lucky One. On my peak of fitness (4:00 km/min @ 140 bpm) I had disc prolapse. So I couldn't train for nearly a year now and I miss running so much. I never felt this " high " in any other areas in my life. I had that grin in my face which came from my bottom of my heart when I did start my run. I felt light like a feather floating around. I hope I ever will be able to get back in this training routine.
Couldn't agree more! Training for a race (or whatever your goal is at the time) can expose so many other aspects to your overall health. The second I slowed down and analysed form and technique, was when I started to get a whole new passion for running! It's exciting to know that brute force of volume and speed isn't the only metrics by which you improve your performance. I used to unconsciously obsess over my Strava annual goal or even just my weekly mileage, only to find myself with a sore knee within a month, and not reflecting in the moment. Because I was seeing marginal gains in speed or weight!
Stephen! Thank you so much for your valuable insight. We Love you and we appreciate you. You've helped make me a better person and better runner.
This is great stuff, keeping it simple. Not just for training but for life too?! 😊
Solids advice, thanks Steven! Looking forward to the hills video.
Here I am watching RUclips late at night… I should be sleeping😂😭guilty. I should be sleeping/recovering. Thank you
Awesome video, soo easy to get caught up trying to do too much.
Similar issues with the strength training world, too many people majoring in the minors and forgetting about the fact that especially for non competitive athletes, showing up and doing the work consistently is actually much more important that having a fancy program.
Your a asome human being my bro 😎 thanx from PR 🇵🇷❤️🙏
Would love you to do a video on balancing gym work with running and how to work around that
Thank you🙏. Training for my 2nd ultra and your channel is really a big help. 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks! My favorite running channel! I find intervals really tough to maintain, especially the last few reps. Any tips how I can do my intervals and tempos better.
Seeing your paces is much helpful and enjoyable!
Thank you, kindly..
Today at lunch run. I was to do 4 easy with 4 strides. I had to remember no stop not 5 strides but 4. No easy slow down. Good evening I have a temple run to do and during my easy lunch run I am a blow it I kept on to push myself more.
You train only legs???
If not could you do your gym routine for all the body because you have an amazing physic!
Video idea 💡
Love the videos. Can you do a video on SPM (strides per minute) and how to train for faster SPM’s? That would be awesome. I always feel like I am almost running in place at 170 or faster.
I live for the day when the video starts with the Always Sunny theme music and the title is “Never Sunny in Scotland” Stephen runs an ultramarathon.
Consistency and proper rest.
My hardest take on social media and strava is it focuses a lot around the sexy and fast workouts. Many people don't want to show their easy runs at 130-140HB if it's a 7min++/km or 10min++/mile. Where most people are if they really take it easy.
I wonder if Kipchoge even used to track his runs or simply send it after how his body felt.
Can you do a video about optimal pulse during a marathon? How long should you be in each zone and so on....?
“It’s boren”
Consistency is hard enough as it is. That's why all of these marginal gains seem so appealing.
Great video!
In training, when you do a marathon pace session, should you use the marathon pace you've done in the past or the marathon pace you're aiming to achieve?
Hello Stephen, I hope you are doing great.
Quick question about recovery. Have you used and do you recommend air compression leg boots? I've been running for a few years now and started as an older runner. Having upped my miles and intensity recently I find that my recovery goes through stages of being longer (to be expected).
I'm sure a professional massage would be much better, but obviously this is far less convenient and quickly racks up in cost.
Have you used them and if yes what is your opinion? Hard to find proper independent reviews online that I trust.
Cheers. David.
Nice video and i have one question for you. I'm interested in what your advice would be on how to add and gain as smartly and quickly as possible. given that I skipped interval training for 4 weeks and only did runs with final accelerations, as I was coming back after a 10-day break due to the flu, now that I feel like I've come back to myself, I want to smartly get back up to speed. What speed session or training do you recommend.
I hate that I have such a high pulse while running. How do I go from 145-150 pulse with like 6:00 min/km pace to more like your easy runs? I would want to lower my pulse to 140 at 5:00 min/km pace, but dont know how to do it/what to do to get there. Im doing 3-4 workouts a week
I would definitely recommend more slow Z2 runs and cut down the workouts to like 2 a week. The workouts do at like threshold I would say and hope this helps
Hey Stephen, what are they type of runners you use ? ( the green coloured ones in this video) thanks in advance
You only get out what you put in
“Here we go, Mr Olympics” 😂 - We like it bro keep talking about all the stuff you can do that us normies can’t! It’s not annoying I promise 🙏
I really wish I could tell all the young people this who are trying to optimize every last minute of their training and diet - they spend so much time on the optimization they actually spend less aggregate time training and it’s sad to watch.
I used to sit on my lap top and scroll the internet for ways to be better. Book another altitude camp, research the dates etc.. look up others training and then thought.. or you could just go do your double run.. how about that.. ha.
are those theta waves in the background, Stephen?..
Hi Stephen, thanks for your videos. Have you ever had piriformis issues or high hamstring tendonopathy issues?
Likely still have it, right leg.. isometric holds I believe.. hip control work, and nerve flossing
@@stephenscullion262 ok cheers mate, appreciate it.
The more I train, the worse I seem to get. Stupid fatigue thing.
Stephen, would you say getting a coach is a good idea and following that plan
Yes, if you have faith / trust. I’ve asked for some help with coaching moving forward and I think the biggest reason was taking emotion out of the equation. Coaching is easy when things are going good, but often being self coached it sucks when things aren’t flowing. Questioning yourself, the training etc.. often a coach can take that little step back and say. “Let’s give it a week or two and see, then we make changes if needed.” Self Coached haha… you rip that f*cking plan up on a daily basis if the run sucks
I'd be interested in your pace progression over those last 20 years if you have the data
He has a video on that from a while ago. Something like 'threshold progression'
@@richardbalfe1026thanks for pointing that out. I'll have a look
that's exactly how african runners train... the problem for most of amateur runners is that we do not have time , or the strength to run each day..
How would you handle marathon build up training during vacation? Traditionally I’d still run almost the same mileage while on a vacation, but I wonder if there are more creative ways to still maintain fitness while enjoying vacation a bit more? Would you focus on tempo and VO2 Max workouts while vacationing as a maintenance strategy, but lower weekly volume or would you maintain weekly volume and have
less intense workouts?
Where does he run??? He has the most beautiful routes! lol
He says in the video that he is running in Bushy Park in South West London, where he has run, any time he is in London in the last 20 years.
@@GeorgeRowI’m not a regular of this show, so I wouldn’t have known that, thanks though.
It’s Richmond park
💯❗️
why are you talking about teeth infections?
Happened to him during his last build.
👍
People who get bored are actually boring \ bored people.
What is up with your teeth infections!😂
I know, had one before Doha world champs.. haha to be fair, I brush regularly, but flossing etc.. sadly can’t say I’m great. Should also see a dental hygienist I’m told 2 x per year..
Nerve flossing isn't a substitute for teeth flossing. Just sayin!
Thanks for the talk Stephen.
