Do you guys run?
I prefer a brisk walk
Yes. Basically everyday apart from rest day. After lifting I do 3km/180 spm or 2 km/190 spm. On Sunday I do 5 km/170 spm. I used to run only, but reduced the frequency to 1 day per week when I started lifting. This was detrimental for my overall performance, so I started these short runs basically everyday. These short runs greatly improved my running performance in no time and my resting heart rate. I don't remember my running performance to be better than now, and I just turned 40.
Joe momma!

>>74608819No. Walks only, better for joint health. But I can run as far as I need to if necessary, it’s mostly mental anywayIs this AI? I can’t tell
>>74609034I do both. I run 10-15 minutes out then walk back twice a day. Only way I can get 500-600 kcal out with around 10k steps and not have to walk 2 hours.
Yes. Weightlifting helps with the stress carried in the muscles and running helps with clearing the mind. No music, no phone just trails.
>>74609775Why are you running such short distances?
>>74609845Because it keeps my heart on good shape, it is time efficient and I noticed that has beneficial effect on my longer runs. I would say that I'm basically stronger, my stamina has improved a lot. But the most important factor is the tempo/ cadence. You should practice these short runs with a specific tempo, i.e. 180 and higher. The shorter the distance, the higher the tempo, by I wouldn't go go for less than 2 km. You can run 1 km/ 200 spm, but you should return with a moderate spm (170-180). It took me 2 weeks to notice improve and I continue this routine since then.
