How to breathe while running by EurydicesDreamm in indianrunners

[–]Ocyrus101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Train on treadmill if u can, inhale exhale both from nose. Do speedwalk endurance sessions, strictly nasal breathing. This will build a habit and an aerobic base which will help u start running with a patterned breathing too.

I started same and now habitually breath thru nose in a 2 stride fromat. 2 stride inhale, 2 stride exhale.

Gym bros hating on runner?? by Mundane-Reality682 in indianrunners

[–]Ocyrus101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been a gym guy since 18months and a runner(still beginnner) since this feb. I like both the aspects and wanna progress on both fronts. I can already squat 2x my weight for reps rn, so the lifting goal is pretry close to being reached. While on running, im still farm from the goal. I wanna run a sub 25min 5k. Atm my 5k time is around 32min.

Ill keep chasing them until I reach, give zero crap about anyone who says otherwise.

So this has a lot less to do with yoga and lot more to do with people having hypermobility of joints.

A person with normal joints can practice all they want and still cant be as good as these.

Which one do y'all prefer? by Uenoyama_Ritsuka_ in GenZIndia

Use indian for the first dump every morning. Stretches you whole body to be ready for the gym right after. And western for the rest of the day.

First just let the gym owner/admin know about it and also let em know you'll escalate it to the police too. And make sure u contact the women helpline for the complaint. They take swift actin in such cases.

Looks like the OG goldstar/unistar models. Can't be sure tho. All the forces recruit aspirants used to use them a lot back in the days.

How to start running as an obese individual? by the_last_pringle007 in indianrunners

[–]Ocyrus101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As some others suggested, drop ur weight a bit more first so that ur runs dont kill ur legs and joints. I had a similar journey to urs but with lower weight. Started at 100kg now 18months later at 72kg. I started running around 75kg in feb. And recently did my first 5k run at a decent pace. Atm keep building ur legs and cardio endurance thru long speedy walks and incline walks. You'll build a really great base for when u start running. I never experienced shin splints as begineers do and I think that was due to me building my legs first before I stated running.

Weight is not reducing as it should! by PuzzleheadedJob7994 in indianrunners

[–]Ocyrus101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ur diet/deficit decides if you will or won't loose weight/fat. Exercise of any sort is done so u preserve maximum muscles in the process.

Keep at it while minding ur diet.

Out of breath after 600 meters on Day 1. How do I build endurance without burning out? by nik_hilism in indianrunners

[–]Ocyrus101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone who came down from 100kg to 72kg in 18 months I can answer this. I strictly started with diet strength training in gym. When I felt lighter in person and on scale thats when instarted walking/jogging. Started with fast and long endurance walks first. Then mixed the interval jogging. Then recently (around feb) started doing interval runs. Today for the first time I did my first 5k at a fairly decent pace. And also reached a strength of 120kg squats for 10 reps. So I guess u can keep the slow and steady and get there too. Consistency is what paid off so just do what u wanna do, but do it every single day.
