Until you can't recover from one exercise session enough to be stronger/faster/fitter etc (strength and fitness returns diminish on the exercise investment the longer you've been exercising for [in terms of years]) in your next exercise session is the answer to the title question by the way. If you're exercising to get better at it then then the must know rule is that (technically) the "exercising" doesn't make you better; it's the recovery (rest) from the exercising that make you better because this is where adaptation to the exercise stimulus takes place. So you can exercise too much to never recover enough for adaptation to take place. This of course differs from person to person and depends on a number of factors such as diet, sleeping habits, PED usage, genetics and the use of recovery therapy to name a few.

this guy is cool. glad he came around and is so honest

When we exercise for extended periods of time we deplete blood sugar and the glycogen stored in muscles. We also sweat out water and salt. The human body burns about 1 carb per minute during exercise. Water and salt loss varies between individuals, but it is thought that the rate of water replacement needs to be from 4-8 ounces every 15 minutes for the majority. It is my understanding that salt loss is consistent with how much we sweat. Sports drinks are designed to replace water and salt in a solution that is similar to the fluid lost. Carbs, to be replaced at the rate they are used, would need to be replaced at the rate of 60 per hour. If you drink 32 ounces of drink per hour and don't eat anything then you would want your drink to have 60 carbs. That is about what Gatorade has. In my own personal experience it became clear to me that I need to be replacing carbs, water, and salt throughout my endurance exercise session when the sensation of extreme thirst continued to worsen and my thinking became more and more muddled the more I tried to quench my thirst with water. I have had no further problems with endurance exercise now that I always have enough salt and carbs either in my water or with my water. People exercising up to 90 minutes may not need to replace anything besides water, but the endurance athlete needs to replace water, salt, and carbs for extended workouts.

Another case, in 1973, a team of uruguayan people crashed on high mountains in the Andes, with temperatures of -40F and to get out of there, two of the people had to climb mountains higher than 13000 feet, with no train at all and not knowing anything about climbing techniques with only rugby shoes for two weeks, only ingesting human meet from the death bodies and they survived. The motivation was, to let know their parents they were still alive... So if you think your brain can´t motivate you to do over the physicall limits established, so you live in a very limited world.

The muscles themselves fatigue in the sense they tear and eventually less fibers are working for you, and lactic acid is technically toxic to the muscles, so it wears them down. But what you’re perceiving as fatigue is completely mental. The shaking in your legs when you can’t go any longer for example is from a signal between the brain and muscles where the muscle delivers information on its state, and the brain regulates when they shut down and give out. That’s the mental aspect. Your body is kinda always taking its own diagnostics and trying to react accordingly. Kinda the same idea with homeostasis. They’re all feedback loops.

Even salt is highly processed, with any trace minerals removed, and super-heated to approx. 1,200F which apparently changes the way our bodies can use it. (Unprocessed salt with the trace mineral content intact is a great alternative - pre-pollution sea salt like Himalayan or Redmond NTM.)

Exactly, they know when they're near the finish line, thus they evaluate their fatigue levels and accommodate their rythm in order to do it as fast as possible. In earlier stages, they need to be more conservative, thus they don't push the limit. I feel he fails to understand that sure, the perception of fatigue is very much in our brains, but muscles do tire, and marathons aren't the best examples to prove muscle fatigue, since the most dominant fatigue in this case is cardiovascular/lactic acid production, now try that with powerlifting and tell me you can ignore how tired you are and do 10reps of what was previously your 1 rep max.

I ran a marathon about 10 years ago and weighed myself before I left the house for the race at 185 pounds. I drank at every water stop possible and drank a LOT of fluid after the race then weighed myself when I got home and I was 178 pounds. This was all water weight that I put back on over the next few days, but it shows just how much water you can lose via extertion and the importance of replenishing not only your water but your electrolytes.

Wow. I’ve ran 12 marathons, and I can tell you the reason that guy can run so fast in the last bit of the race, is because he was conserving his energy. Any semi-professional runner would know that. He’s not running as fast as he can throughout the entire race, and he’s concerning his energy for the last kilometer. He’s not at his most tired before the last kilometre like this guy says. That’s against every standard and technique I’ve ever studied in running.They made an entirely hypothetical Model without even consulting the runner from what it sounds like.

I can't believe he didn't discuss salt intake and the need for salt pills when consuming water. This has been known for hundreds of years. Railroad builders in the 1840s to 1890s all provided salt tablet dispensers next to drinking water dispensers. Even in U.S. factories for the WWII war effort, every factory had attached salt tablet dispensers to every drinking fountain and drinking water dispenser. It was obvious and the standard in most every factory, construction sites, etc until 1960s. In more recent times, as multi-day fasting becomes the new fad to lose weight, even people in those circles know that during a water-fast it is extremely to intake salt regularly, in proportion to consumption of water. If you take too much salt, you'll just pee it out (if your kidneys and liver work right), but if you don't take enough salt while drinking water, you'll risk going into a coma or dying, or causing yourself long term brain injury due to the brain fluid pressure of cerebral encephalopathy. Don't be like Dr. Cynthia Lucero and die for water. If you don't have salt, Do Not Drink water - wait until you can have salt or salty foods with your water. Or go and find V8 drink, or even Clamato, they are loaded with sodium. Do Not drink gatorade, not even the "pro" version of gatorade, there's only 1/3 the salt compared to what you sweat out per volume. "Death by gatorade" is a real thing, look it up. search terms "Can you get water poisoning from Gatorade?"

Some very interesting concepts . Some of which i have pondered about previously and not known any better besides using personal observations . I have found siping on water when thirsty and that to just to get maybe a gulp down but thats it hydration during exercise is a little different than drinking like you would through your normal day to day activities.

We shouldn't be putting all carbs into same category. Carbs are both lollies and vegetables. Why most studies don't show low fat diets making people healthier is because the "low fat" (not even realy low fat diets, since often about 30% of their calories comes from fat) groups replace the fats with refined sugars, not vegetables, whole grains, fruit and legumes.

He says overdrinking is bad, but drinking what? water or isotonic drink? If drinking too much water makes sodium concentration go down, are sotonic drinks good or not? and how much do we have to drink, 1 liter per hour? So many unanswered questions, the first one how much exercise is too much

Regarding muscle fatigue, he is generalizing way too much. You can, in fact, beat fatigue mentally, but there IS a limitation to that. It’s really hard to hurt yourself by pushing past fatigue if you were in proper shape and well rested before the event, but if you were not either well rested or in proper shape, you could injure yourself. Your muscles literally start to tear when you push the limits and if you don’t get in proper shape and rest enough, you will pull a muscle. What he was talking about was probably the balance of stretching and relaxation in running technique. Many runners (even elite) do not get completely stretched and relaxed until well into a race, especially the longer races, like a 10K. And his explanation of the slide showing the speed of the 10K runner throughout a race was complete bogus. The speed pattern there is based on competition, not perceived ability. If he put up a slide that showed a record attempt, the speed pattern would be nearly a straight line, not quite top speed, because it’s such a long race.

I think you snap replied to my post without really understanding what you read. I agree with you with the exception of “pushing the limits.” You’re using that phrase as a figure of speech often used in sports and not defining “limit” as the point of injury. You made the assumption that I did the same. Had you understood my post, you might have asked me what I meant by “pushing the limits.” There is a big difference between being limited because you don’t believe it can be done and the physical limitations of our bodies. The process of developing our bodies to go faster is literally limited by preventing injury. If we could beat the mental part and weren’t limited by injury, we’d be working out 24 hours a day until we were sprinting 10Ks to a geometric limit, based on the length of our legs. So, if you say I’m wrong, you are basically disagreeing with your own statement.

I hate when people mix words like COULD, SHOULD, WILL, and MAY. They convay different things. If studies say YOUR PERFORMANCE COULD SUFFER it hints at a possibility. If you then read it to an audience as YOUR PERFORMANCE WILL SUFFER, you say that it is proven your performance always suffers. The problem is, the study never said that. It is much more important to understand those words than people realize.

While modern people always use running Marathons as a catalyst of health, stamina and heroism, they always forget this Greek messenger died after he ran that inhumane distance and he wasn’t interested in running for health per se ! How interesting human always think themselves to death!

That is how powerful your brain is. It's a self defence mechanism designed so you don't overwork yourself to death. But what is the actual limit? It could be that this mechanism in our brains was from a time early in our evolution when we would die from overwork (think dogs that can't sweat), but now we've changed yet it's still there. There are ALOT of things like that our brain does, yet there is no reason for it. Approach anxiety men feel when trying to talk to a woman for instance.

This was after his research finding polyunsaturated fats had no affect on cholesterol. He died in 2009, so he's beyond the reach of human justice.

Perhaps the research could figure in how the constitutions of individuals are different and then they could figure out what 50% is accurate relative to the person and to what degree. Generalizing dietary claims may a portion of the 50% that is not accurate. Some generalities may be relavant to everyone but certainly not all to the same degree.

MD Nicholas Gonzales RIP, wrote a book in connection with nutrition and autonomous nervous system dominance. (Research regarding that, was mainly done by Pottenger, Watson, and Kelly.) Accordingly different individuals do well on a variety of diets and individualised supplementation. More recently strides had been made in direction of pin-pointing differences in our microbiome, and how it's involved in driving our diet preferences, and diseased states.

Great talk. Great man. the title is wrong, though.

Ouch, that's rough. Oh I know eh? Bread/gluten and similar grains are huge drivers for a range of issues like emotional disorders, allergies and disease (highly inflammatory, cancer driver), definitely joint pain too, I've seen this in myself and others. Absolutely, the key is good food from ethical sources.

Yes, instead of correcting the link, say that.

Someone should do a TED talk on how terrible TED talks are. Jim Fix was a heavy smoker and overweight before he took up long distance running.

My understanding is that Fix died because he was genetically disposed to high cholesterol and they didn't make statins back then. So his running, which was good for him, could not overcome his genes.

@@patrickmorgan4006 I think he either did not make his point very well, or it was just bad. What is the definition of marathon runner? A person who once finished a marathon in his life? Or a person attempting his first marathon? Either way, of course nobody would dispute that they cant die of a heart attack during running. If finally manage to get of the couch and sign up for a marathon nobody would be surprised if i dont finish in any possible way :-) So shouldnt be the statement one wants to challenge something like: the prevalence of heart attack is in regular marathon runner substantially less. I mean if your death rate goes down by like 95% (e.g.) thats important. Finding one counterexample is not, and might prevent ppl from taking up sports.

I revisit this interesting and informative lecture. I get through several "therefore..."s, replete with the ends of many key statements diminishing to.a.barely audible mumble and then there it is -- information by way of purely assinine thinking at MINUTE 9. Maybe, like the runner who just can't muster any more energy BECAUSE HE RUNS OUT OF WILLPOWER, some elite and highly recognised thinkers no longer need to muster the willpower -- the quality of attentiveness -- to move their myopic lens out a few microns to RATIONALLY cogitate. .You know, think about it: If these runners would just increase their drive, EVERYONE could come in at 1st place. Aaaahhh. 🏇

The problem of many of these scientists is most of them can’t articulate their messages properly and keep hopping from one thing to another and getting further from what they initially want to talk about, and in the end, no one gets his message, he is just throwing meaningless stats one after another without having an actual context relatable to the audience.
