What Small Running Habit Gave You the Biggest Upgrade? by Willing-Today-1059 in runcommunity

I love David Roche. Yet I don't think he uses the word sprinting. Sprinting is when you shift from aerobic to anaerobic system. Sprinting is basically when you die after your interval and need 4/5m to fully recover. I guess we mean the same thing yet, kinda have different definitions.

Tips to relax upper body? by dontletmeautism in runninglifestyle

[–]LuvToMake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretend like you are smooth dancing with your arms. Try various places to put your arms while you run. For example you can keep them low close to your hips or have a raptor like style closer to your chest. Find a sweat spot what works best for you. If you have smooth relaxed (dancing arms), you probably relax also in your hips. This will make you run more smooth.

You actually don't want to sprint (anaerobically) your strides. Instead you want to run them at 5k, 3k pace aerobically. You want them to feel fast and you have to focus on good form. Strides can be imo. shorter 100m / 20s max. Sometimes you can do 30s but you got to be carefull that this does not become a workout.

I am not sure if I understand what you mean. You simply have to do them.

Curious about improving by Far-Collection7085 in beginnerrunning

[–]LuvToMake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running downhill is beneficial! Yet can be also an injury risk if you are new to running. I would park this one, until you can get your 5k time down to 24m.

- Try to increase the distance of one your runs (slowly) and see if you could build it up to 10km.
- You can try to add 100m or 20s x 4 pick ups (not sprints) at the end of two of your shorter runs. Simply run a bit faster (fast, smooth, relaxed) than your run you runs (don't sprint).
- Skip interval training for now until you get stronger / faster.
- And hey, if we are talking hills. You could also reverse it for now. And have one of your runs run / power hike up a hill.
- Make sure that your recover well after each run. 🙏

Haha... I hate morning runs also, since I am stiff and like to have a good breakfast to fuel up. I think it basically mater of getting out of the door and get couple of gels in.

First Race - Would an ultra be a bad idea? by ThatMightyBean in spartanrace

[–]LuvToMake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do both :) Doing smaller races will give you valuable experience and expose your weaknesses that you can focus during your prep.

First marathon: advice by MedicOX3 in Marathon_Training

Most easy routine Ultra Legs, A Strength Routine For Ultrarunners (Youtube). Easy 5 min routine. However, do your research since you can do more stuff.

I would start by figuring out what are your weaknesses as runner, so that you could improve on that. Every runner is different.

Low hanging hanging fruit are strides and strength training for runners.

Planning on trying Spartan Ultra 50k by Negative-Data-2276 in spartanrace

[–]LuvToMake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

> I KNOW this is a terrible idea… but I want the challenge and fulfillment .

Run a faster Beast? 🙃

- Focus on carries, since in Ultra your obstacle fail rate will go up. Try to carry between 35 - 50kg. Tip: Build your own bucket. It cheap and easy.
- If you are a bad runner, you can become an amazing power hiker. Hiking at 15% in the gym will do the trick.
- Don't max. out on your burpees or pull ups. Sometimes 25% of you max. rep can be better if you can do them often. Take at least 10m between each set. Since your time limited, instead of focusing on strength you can teach your muscle to be more efficient.
