Running...

#21

So far so good, I completed week 2 of the C25K program, albeit with a little difficulty on the last couple intervals. This morning's weigh in (weekly), showed a nice loss from last week, and I am now at my lowest for the year. So, strength training and running training is now going to be the order of the day! I was excited to see the progress, especially since my diet was not the best this weekend.

if you are doing a 3 day routine do long distance decent pace on days 1 and 3.  On day two do 60-120s which is basically sixty seconds of sprinting then 120 seconds of fast paced walking for the normal distance you run.


Go Jags!
*To stay up for atleast 2 years 3/6/17
2016 draft players I think will be good
  • On the Fournette train, will be best back of his class 3/6/17
  • Lattimore please,  Lockdowns on both sides would be nice
  • Engram at TE and the MJD clone Samaje Perine

It starts with your eating habits, exercise can speed up the process and will help your overall health and energy levels.  A few years ago I started eating 6 small meals a day (around 300 calories each, all well balanced meals), and was very disciplined sticking to that diet.  I also did the Insanity workout from Team Beach body...I lost around 40 pounds in a few months.

 

From there I became less strict but my overall lifestyle had completely changed.  I've been maintaining a healthy lifestyle and weight now for several years; it's just part of my routine now.  

 

You must be disciplined, and make no excuses.

I was big into running a few years back and was a bigger guy myself.  Ran the River Run 5 years in a row and did the Donna half one year. 

 

The Galloway method was the best method I found for running.  It's basically interval training where you run for whatever time interval you want and then walk for a certain time interval.  I was at running 4 and walking 1 I think at the end.  I've heard of people even at running 30 seconds and walking 2 minutes though.  It's all about where you're at. 

 

It's funny because I was running when I was heavier and now that I've lost weight I don't run anymore.  I'm just doing more circuit training type workouts and trying to eat better, which like everyone said before my post is terrible.

Definitely.

 

Also, if the knee pain continues, do what the 50+ guys do to increase cardio -- hit the elliptical

Around 6 miles is my limit. Not physically, but mentally. I run to get in shape and it feels good to run..sometimes. After 6 miles it becomes drudgery. I did the River Run once and checked it off my list.

Yup! I ran a very popular 10k here in town once. I stepped over that line and realized that I met my two goals for that race. 1. Finished under an hour. 2. Not dead. I don't think I have anything else to prove as far as running is concerned.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!
