  • As part of my new series ‘How To Win Like Mo’, I’ll be giving you exclusive access into my day-to-day life to show you what it takes to become a champion. I’ll be posting a new video every week to give you an insight into my training. I’m pretty new to this so please let me know what you think and what you’d like to see more of in the comments below. All footage was shot at St Mary's University, London.

    You know it's a legit advice when it's coming from an Olympian and world champion.

      James Ambrocio that sounds a little sarcastic, if you read it with some certain tone

    • @josephg8895
      @josephg8895 Před 6 lety +12

      Actually he isn't tell us shit. Because he wants to remain a champion. Smart move but he's misguiding people with his 3 to 4 minute superficial rambles about general exercise. It's good for people that don't have a clue, but it's not the most helpful advice for anyone that is more serious. You're awesome Mo, but this youtube channel is not.

  • @banderalmohayya
    @banderalmohayya Před 6 lety +137

    The key element is that he does not stretch his muscle for a long duration. He warms them up for few seconds (10 seconds or less) and then, he moves to stretch other muscles.

      @TheChris69er Před 6 lety +2

      LOL, Omar did you not know that Nike now make special shoes that change colour just when you want them too even bouncing of a wall. In reality I actually found it rather annoying and distracting from the content of the video.

    I like it...no complex terminology/verbiage, no fancy moves, no contorted stretching, just simple and to the point and this type of warm up 80% of the time will get the job done! Thanks, man!!!

  • @alexanderkhilji6152

    It’s always important to warm up and stretch reduce the risk of any potential injury.

  • @aimeecallow7783
    @aimeecallow7783 Před 6 lety +4

    Hi Mo massive fan here, you are like my inspiration, maybe you could do video on nutrition? I can't run at the moment because I wasn't eating enough food so once I get strong again and back running that'd be amazing!! Also its something a lot of people might like to know about :) love all your videos too!!

  • @chipojo2008
    @chipojo2008 Před 6 lety +3

    Those of you asking for breathing advice. Have your lungs work for you, not you work for your lungs. I have long strides so i in a sequence of two strides i inhale and then exhale in another two strides. It basically gives your body and mind a rhythm that does not put as much shock on your lungs as it would if you’re constantly breathing in and out rapidly or slowly. I improved my 5k from 22 minutes down to 19:30ish in a matter of a month or two. Im 220 lbs so if you’re a smaller individual, you should run even faster using this breathing method.

So to conclude you remain source of inspiration, motivation, and a well wisher for all the athletes and for generation to come . and we do appreciate about kenenisa Bekele and all the great ones.

    I'm enjoying all of these videos at the moment, thank you! I have some ideas for potential new videos:
    - Cooling down from a Long Run or Interval session - what sort of stretches would you do?
    - And also one about injury, whether it's about avoiding injury or how to help treat injuries.
    Any of these would be great!
