1 tip, if you haven't got sand to run on, use long-ish grass to train on, making sure to lift your foot over the blades. It helps with driving your knees up and forward, improving your cadence and helps with ankle strength and stability as you're bringing your foot down on an uneven surface.

​@mixermaster10 I don't think he's talkin about knee high grass.

I was a state qualifying sprinter in high school and ran a lot in the military. The best sprint workout i have ever experienced came from basketball conditioning. What we did was 1-mile (1600m) total worth of sprints on an outdoor track... (I recommend starting with at least half that and with a slightly lower intensity for a week... or 3) but it was typically broken up into (16) 100m dashes with limited rest time. (8) 200m dashes, or (4) 400m dashes. we did the 200m dashes most often. we would start at the 200m start line and have a goal time to hit (mine was 32 seconds even though I was capable of running it in 23 seconds, because we have to do a lot of them with a lower recovery time)...but we would sprint to the finish line then walk till we were even with the field goal post (which is about 50m), then lightly jog the rest of the way to the start line (150m)...the coach would be counting down and we would have to be ready to sprint as soon as we got there. it was great for conditioning and speed. BUT!! in the military we did something similar that's much easier to keep track of and you don't need a track. they're called 30, 60's or 60, 120's. which is exactly what you would think. sprint for 30 seconds, walk for 60. or sprint for 60 seconds, walk for 2 minutes. this would typically last for what felt like an hour but was probably 15-25 minutes....enjoy.

I heard Huberman mention something about sprinting recently, and have now done a few simple sprints repeat (10X) sessions on the grass, the length of the soccer field. It feels great. This video is a good reminder for me to keep it up, and all the physiological adaptations to sprinting are a great bonus! While sprinting again its reminded me of the good old days when I was a kid and a teen--naturally sprinting just for the joy of it. As we age it is so easy to forget the basics. I can probably count on one hand the number of times I sprinted between ages 40 and 50! At 52, I look forward to making this a staple of my workout routine.

Rest starts at around 45 seconds and also goes down wich decreasing reps. This give me the volume in a relatively short time. After this, I do lots of stuff like handstands, rows, ropw climbing, anything really. Also for the legs I do horse stance, animal walks, jumps etc., just playin around.

Before I went to basic for the Army, a good friend of mine that I used to work with that was prior service helped me prepare for basic. One of the things he did, was start out by just doing 2 mile runs at a decent pace, 2-3 times a week and gradually increasing my speed. Then one day, we did intervals and it made the 2 miles seem harder, but made it go by much quicker and felt like an overall better workout. Now I will just incorporate it into my runs occasionally, or when I'm doing longer than 2 miles, I'll just sprint as far as I can a few times.

@norunaround1624

26 күн бұрын

For what it is worth I'll give my take on this. As an all-around workout routine I'm agree but I would add that if your target is competitive 10k runs and/or to develop your cardio endurance you shouldn't train with sprinting too much. The reason I say that is because sprinting and distance running developments are periportally reliant to their own type of exorcise; so you are either focusing on building your aerobic metabolism or your anaerobic metabolism during training. The high intensity activities (anaerobic) use the phosphagen system and fast glycolysis to develop you to reduce lactic acid buildup while making energy without oxygen where, in contrast, with the prolonged, low-intensity activities (aerobic) you be building a cardiorespiratory endurance with the oxidative system using slow glycolysis to enhance how effectively you can utilize oxygen to fight back fatigue. You could do both but one doesn't help with the other because they are two separate energy systems you'll be training/developing. I suspect the long distance runners I ran with trained a small mounting of sprinting (usually 100 meters with very long rests) because they are hoping to improve their 'kicks' for their final pushes.

Been practicing sprint intervals these past 2 years - quite possibly the best mental benefits (longterm development ones) that I've ever experienced from exercise.

Another benefit, is feeling awesome. Sprinting is such a cool feeling, being able to move at incredibly fast speeds is one of life’s best pleasures.

I've been doing this, but not on purpose. Originally I just wanted to do some cardio and get my endurance up, but I found myself having to sprint a couple times during a session to get my legs feeling more light. Also it just felt really good.

Love it when I'm putting together a perfect plan to become a superhuman just for my 3 AM motivation to die off right after setting a goal

KEEP UP THE THE AMAZING WORK BROTHER❤❤❤

Exactly right. All running animals get fit the quickest and lose fat the quickest when they do intense exercises like sprinting and intense, rapid weightlifting. It's because we evolved a "fight or flight" mechanism. If you are being chased by a predator, another human, or in a life-threatening situation, sprinting or fighting off the aggressor can save your life. What really matters when it comes to getting fit quickly is not how much fat you burn during the exercise, but how much your body responds to the stress placed upon it during the exercise and you get fitter quicker during your rest and sleep. Most people don't understand this because of the poor advice given by Dr. Ken Cooper back in the 1960's who convinced us all it was better to exercise at less intense levels so you could burn more fat during the exercise. This is what the cardio people don't understand...

Yes, think that is true too. I would say that the survival benefits of intense exercise are there for everybody, and we also evolved the ability for stamina too. Especially Kenyans and Eithiopians. @@julianrooney8191

As a full time sprinter this video is perfect

Great video. Awesome art style as well. One thing I would have touched on is anaerobic vs aerobic training difference as well. I've run with Sprinter who went on to compete in the Olympics who couldn't finish a 2 mile run without heaving and dry vomiting because their bodies were so conditioned to anaerobic training.

Very good video. LOL at the rocky mr. T reference in the end.

Recently my morning routine has consisted of running a mile (ish) straight after waking up. The reason for this is that a) it doesn't take much time and I don't get too hot and sweaty (especially this time of year), b) it wakes me up and energises me, c) I get early morning light exposure, and d) I still think that with a short workout like this I'm getting some cardiovascular benefit. I start fairly slow to warm up and increase to a fast-ish jog, then finish with a sprint. After reading this I may incorporate some more sprints within the run.

I really feel good after a 1 mile jog. it's as far as I'm usually willing to jog but it feels great up to that point. Often I'll casually jog a mile but randomly sprint for 10-15 seconds maybe 3 times during the mile or just wait till after the mile and do a few sprints once I'm warmed up.

When I was on the track team in college, one of the best sprint intervals we had was 10x200m@30sec w/2min recovery. Or sprinting hills for 100m with recovery of however long it took to walk back.

What have you trained for? That's endurance training, not speed. You cannot rest for only 2 minutes and run 2k of 200m at a good speed. This video is not talking about your type of training.

Excellent!!! Amazing info and video!

Wonderful video and lovely drawing style! One note: from what I've heard, increasing growth hormone levels reduces life expectancy.

great video, thanks. if you don't do a field workout with sprints, you're really missing out. its the single most challenging and rewarding workout in my routine. without it, i feel fat and weak. i started lifting about two years ago and after incorporating field workouts, everything for me took off. as an older man, i need the boost in T and blood flow for overall health, athleticism, and recovery. lifting has become easier because i really challenge myself on the field. i do three legs to my field workout. first one includes a superset of indian runs and burpees. secondly, i do 50 yd and 100 yd sprints, followed by lunges and SAQ drills. lastly, i do hill sprints, a couple jogbacks (25, 50, 75, 100) finishing with more 50 and 100 yd sprints. if i can do this twice a week in my routine, i feel like superman. sadly, sometimes i only get it done once a week (life.)

It would be great to see the details of the full workout you do if you don't mind? The number of each exercise and rest times?

My neighbors think I'm weird sprinting up and down the street but whatever, gotta get those sprints in.

This is fantastic. Im working on getting my body ready to compete in boxing. Due to current situations im unable to join the gym rn. Im plenty experienced and know how to handle myself well in a fight. But I’ve always lacked the physical conditioning. While I’m in this season of isolation, I’m looking to equip myself with everything I need for when this season is over. I’ve structured a good routine for myself including, 20 min jogs, Olympic lifts, calisthenics and shadowboxing. Sprints will be the newest addition. I’ll follow the routine you placed here. I’ll do these once a week every Wednesday. Fantastic video, thank you fr

They are a great way to get some conditioning while also programming in some explosiveness for boxing. I did amateur boxing for 10 years and one of my favorite conditioning drills was sprinting up a hill outside the gym and walking back down before going again. Good luck with your training, hope the boxing goes well!

What about running longer distances of several km at least, but occasionally going into a sprint during the run when you feel like it? That always seemed like the most natural way to run for me.

You aced it, been sprint interval training for 25years. Top tip, no fatty food 1 hour before training no sugary food or drink 1 hour after. Both will mess with Growth Hormone/testosterone output you get from sprint training. Also be 1C warmer for full hormone effects, so in a cold climate, thermal joggers, jacket, and hat rule of thumb only start once you're sweating from warm-up. And obviously no cold showers afterwards.

This video is absolute gold

Yo that plan at 3:30 is solid.. Little gathered over time builds character. Chasing quick success builds ego and injuries..
