MAF is bullshit you need to run in Zone 5 a couple of times weekly

Racing too much can be a factor but only if you're stressed about every race. Pros will race a lot but only have a few or even just one 'A' race, the rest arr kind of just extra training, not so much the physical but mentally getting used to racing, the taper, getting up early, the traveling, being in a bunch, the atmosphere, etc. Sometimes I'm more stressed with less racing because I want to nail each one.

running is useless, endurance is useless and waste of time intensive spint gives all benefits without any side effects

Is that a secret weapon? I thought in the meantime everyone knows this for years now?

Great video well done mate

Good stuff. But I don't like when people take it to the extremes. If carb as fuel isn't the best during a marathon, where are the world records on water or on mct fats etc?

this is great

Just tried getting back into running and facing the same extreme calf strain issues! Just subscribed

Thank you so much for sharing this! My daughter wants to be a runner but she is a mouth breather and gets so frustrated running. This gives me hope that we can help her feel safe breathing through her nose with these exercises and hopefully turn her into a runner!!

The leader in hypoventilation training. Ran in combat boots with his wife on his back. Incredible athlete.

Came here as I’m trying to improve as a runner and MAF is so ubiquitous in the running space. I tend to run at a low heart rate and slow pace anyway so figure I could catch some good info. While the MAF method may be a totally viable training strategy, many of Maffetone’s comments on nutrition and metabolism were pretty frustrating to listen to and only serve to further confuse the general public. You don’t become fat from eating carbs, you don’t become skinny from not eating them, this tired argument is so silly. Weight gain/loss, and by extension fatness/leanness, are a function of energy balance. Eat less energy and/or burn more energy, how you choose to accomplish that (low carb, high carb, IF, food logging, etc) in the way that works best for you is the right answer. It’s great that there are so many options for people to try. Putting Dr in front of your name (nowhere on his website does he post his education btw, I had to do some digging to see he’s a chiropractor) and giving such narrow and misguided explanation of how weight loss is accomplished pushes people into apathy because they no longer know what’s right. Whats right is whatever puts you in a deficit and what you can stick to for the long run (pun intended). I see it with my family and friends. People need options, quit confusing them.

hello sir so i have problem of sinus during running i couldnt able to breathe through my nose as it start getting headache and nose ache due to sinus so what should i do in that situation do i stop running or just breathe by my mouth??

I'm so grateful i stumbled over the MAF Method while researching how to start running and gave it a chance. After a little shin plins i researched and deep dived into this training method and i'm glad to say after i recovered and started training again with low heart rate im feeling great and healthy. No pain, less stress and fatigue after the training and i really feel strong and am exited for my next slow run. Thanks for all your work! Thanks for sharing this talk! This is gold!

you forgot that it increases the power of the peepee

I like the Pre pic in the wall

Excellent

Way too many ads

Thank you so much for the useful tips ❤

These are awesome tips for beginner runners like me. Thank you!

Strength training has completely changed the game for me. I started off just running and then slowly started incorporating various strength exercises. Now I have a full daily routine and I always feel stronger than I did the day before.

Looking good and moving well!

Nice to be able to run faster than planned 😀

Hi there, I'm a new subscriber and I am 56 years old and have a BMI of 39, which puts me in obese class 2. I also have been very sedentary for over 8 years. I used to run in gym class in elementary school and I really liked it. I want to start running.

Could listen to that guy all day. I just learnt so many life lessons. Wise man

One criticism I have is that it’s not such dichotomy, but rather a continuum, because even when you’re running a tempo you’re still working your aerobic system… even VO2max touches on aerobic system at least for a fraction of a workout… so, it’s hard to argue that every run has to be slow… Also, I’d say that people who activate their fast-twitch fibers absolutely improve their speed…

Tom has a very nice running gait - he’ll smash his PB! Looked very strong 💪🏼

Rhythm is something I have never thought! I think it deserves a whole video. Thanks

There is barely no mater for technique in running, I never saw a trainer giving correctioms apart from some posture, relaxed shoulders and simple tips. We are made for running! Train properly at relaxed paces and your body will know how to move with time, it takes years

Nijel Amos, bad running style

Merci beaucoup 😊

Sifan Hassan. She’s amazing but her form is abysmal.

No mention of hip and shoulder counter oscillation? The thing that generates most power in running??? Geez 🙄 🤦‍♂️ Study spinal engine theory.

2:06 - No. the complete opposite, there is wayyyy more space to breathe when bringing the shoulders back.

nice example with EG, but how come someone like Kerr has what appears to be a far more "forced" 90 degree armswing compared to EG who just as you say let his arms act like mini levers? Great vid using the elites definitely helps !!

This video deserves more views!!

it's brilliant, You can do a Halfmarathon under 140 bpm :)

Only thing is, elite athletes have the time to do 85% easy. Amateurs can’t do this level of training, and they may better suit a higher level of intensity with their limited time no? Sure, they won’t reap the benefits these guys do from easy running, but they are also not professional athletes ?

It’s kind of interesting she needs applesauce for a short run and notices a difference when not having it.

Short sweet and to the point! 👍I like the idea of hitting a given mileage for several weeks, really “mastering it”, before increasing it. As a new-ish runner in the 2nd category you described (keen, did too much too soon, got hurt) this seems like a more sensible approach than the oft-touted “10% per week” rule. I’m coming out the other side now and we’ll see where it goes. Thanks for posting it. Regards from Toronto, Canada.

We need to know what easy running feels like. Over dependence on the HR monitor is a problem.

It’s always nice to interrupt an intelligent talk with an awkwardly inserted commercial break, and then repeat about twelve times.

Is it a thing to have deliberate spelling mistakes in titles to get algorithm boosting comments? I'm seeing this alot. Interesting topic ty.

Would you recommend this for a 12 yr old girl?

Unbreakable, Where Dreams Go To Die

Hey relaxed running, how do we get to Dr. Phil to help fix my base running: I've been eating quite well, not the junk food like Tacobell every day or that kind of rate, but not exactly as guided too, I sleep pretty ok averaging 6-8 hours, I do deep breathing for 10-15 min almost every morning and run afterwards 3 medium length run (6km) and 1 long run (13-15km) every week with strength training after my medium run for 30-45min. I've been conducting the base method for almost 8 months now, with just 1 full month break due to fasting. My heart rate is still not consistent meaning I have to literally stop running to adjust my heart rate. So my speed hasn't improved. How long will my base run get the consistency and will eventually improve my speed..

I do follow his zone 2, low heart rate philosophy, but as a health care professional, I would not call the ketogenic diet "good". Eating healthy carbs is key (legumes, fruits and vegetables). People are consuming huge portions of ALL macros these days. Do we really need to eat a 1 pound steak when a serving size is a deck of cards? It's interesting that he's pointing out carb advertising. I noticed that everyone is selling protein powder LMNT and Athletic Greens these days - not carbs!

Nice, Tyson!

Fantastic interview. it is so helpful.
