I started running in 2018 at 220lbs I was down to 160lbs two and a half months later maintained until 2022. Now in 2024 I have put on 100lbs and am trying so hard to get back into it but it is so discouraging the pain and exhaustion I feel. I have to remind myself to start slow like I did the first time. Thank you for the video, we are our own worst critics forsure.
This was me today.
I got into swimming first and now find running a little easier. Not even thinking about the weight, it's not what it's all about, it's about a good mindset. Thank you for the video❤
It's all about the mind!! Glad to hear you're doing well. :) have a great day!
@@BrendonCamm going on a little run right now actually :)
Hi Brendon! Great content. Can i see a glimpse of your training plan? Do you recommend sticking to zone 2 or should i push harder?
Thank you!!! Just started and your channel is really appreciated. Doing the walk - jugging routine for now.
Glad to hear it's helping you! Best of luck with your journey :)
Overweight , newbie here. So true about baby steps. I hurt my knees a few months ago and said I'd take it easy this time around. 4 weeks now into prepping training with the just run app and 4 weeks more to go to my first 5k. I am doing this for me! 🎉
So great to hear!!!
After watching this, I am wondering, why do you run?
I run for various reasons, mental health, physical health, the challenge of it, pushing my limits, proving to myself I can do hard things. Running can be used for so many different things and for me it evolves all the time!
To narrow
You should walk till the proper eating you do kicks in.
Advice for number 4: Head to your local cemetary or one nearby. They are very low traffic areas and really peaceful
Don’t run on concrete like the women in the video.
The right shoes save your feet and the right athletic shorts save your thighs
I’ve gone from being completely sedentary with type 2 diabetes to running 5 days a week. I know I need to lose weights but I said to myself- I’m running for my general health and fitness - especially my mental health. I knew if the focus was solely my weight I’d get disheartened if I never saw change. I focus on how good it makes me feel . Some days are easier than others
Honestly i think bigger people just need to start with dieting and walking. There’s a lot of danger in jumping into running with extra weight.
Is it good for heavier runner? I’m 5’9 89kg. My daily trainer is novablast 3, long run shoe is NB 1080v13 (love the cushion) and now looking for faster pace training. Is endorphin speed 4 good for me considering my weight?
Started my running journey and LOVE the warm-up routine you have suggested! Thank you so much!
I'm glad it helps!! :) Thanks for tuning in!
I love the change your mindset advice! If you think you are a fatty... it can be a self-fulfilling prophecy.. so don't let it be. You are a guy who is just trying to "lose a couple pounds".
I was never that serious about running, but 10 years ago I could run 2.5 miles in about 20 to 23 minutes, at a bodyweight of 145 lbs. Then I stopped running and focused entirely on weightlifting and over-eating. Now I finally started running again weighing 200 lbs (with a lot of abdominal fat), and I can barely do 1 mile in 13 minutes. 😫 My plan is to do 1 mile, twice a week. Then do it 3 times per week. I'd eventually like to work my way up to 5 miles, 1 to 3 times per week. But man, running at this heavier bodyweight makes such a difference!
Would these be good for brisk walking ? I have nerve pain in feet and thought these would help. 😮
I hate them they gave me bad blisters. Also they heat up so bad in the front it doesn’t matter what socks I wear.
The number one BiG negative is that it's so time consuming
Overhyped shoe
140 kg to 77 kg?!?!? What?!? Wow...! You just gave me a rear kick to lost my desired 10 kg...
You can do it!!
Fantastic, well done.
I've just bought this book also been looking into david goggins lately trying to motivate myself 😎
I agree with properly fueling. I do a calorie deficit however before I workout I fuel up on a carb and a protein. Yhe carb will burn and the protein will build muscle.
Had older nimbus, it was superb for heavy runners but the foam didnt last as long as kayano. These soft and bouncy maximum shoes are as good as advertised but tend to bottom out quicker.
Too soft! These are a ticket to injury.
have you ran 150 miles on that shoes?
Not version 4, probably about 75 in them now. But v1, v2, v3 I've run probably over 1500 miles in those ones.
I’m not grossly over weight but I have to run for the army and I can barely run 1 lap without walking and I have to some how do 8 and I literally mentally struggle
Got these a week ago (ordered them a month and a half ago), haven't run in anything else since I got them. on some very hilly routs I don't think my heartrate has ever been so low and I think this is the only shoe I own that I would be comfortable doing a speed intervals session (3mins @ 3:30km/5:38mile/17kph x 10) one day, and a long run the next (@4:50-5-30min/km x 25), I'd still use Vaporfly or TakumiSen for race day half marathon sub 1:30, but It's an awesome training shoe and very comfortable, excellent foam, makes me wonder how good the pro is, and how good the elite will be.
Exactly the same for me! I'm very tempted to pick up the pro :)
Good news. Still works. What is slow pace for you?
Absolutely still works! Slow pace for me is between 5:50-6:15/km.
@@BrendonCamm thanks. For me it is maybe 6:10-6:30 depending on shoes.
I've run in all 4 versions of the Speed lineup. Versions 1 & 2 were my all-time favorite running shoes. I found version 3 to be completely different. Like you, I felt it to be soft and squishy. Version 4 has reversed that feeling a bit, but still not close to the first 2 versions. So, version 4 is okay in my mind, but nothing special.
It's tough to beat v1 & v2, those were very special shoes!
Now I feel encouraged to continue with Maf-methods, because the issues you mentioned are understandable, yet avoidable. My performance seems to skyrocket since I try to run within aerobic zone, the mental changes are fantastic (I made a U turn and started looking forward to the next session, instead of to the next break within a session, which my body forced me to take), the physical issues seem to disappear abruptly, although I had them for two years and it was a long list, and for the first time in my life, just the thought of a marathon turned from 'way too much' , above and beyond 'tolerable' even up towards 'exciting idea'. I can resonate with this obsession to watch the heart rate, but I didn't turn into tyranny. I am not a failure or weak when I can't maintain the zone, because (in later sessions) it was never my goal to be perfect altogether, but the goal was to a) get experience and answer the question "how does that feel for you running aerobic?" just once, and b) use that experience to shape the next decisions around training. I was confused while running, like, "wait a little, what was important again? Being within the zone all the time? No. Perfectly? No. In case the rate contradicts my own feeling, what's more important? Feeling. What is the end goal of heart rate training? Maybe in the future, I can blindly run aerobic because I learned it with my body." And, by accident, I found out a) how to run a lot longer without feeling tired and b) how to spice that up in case 100 % slow-style is too boring (add intervals). I wanted to add speed work after a few days with heart rate training because going home after 21 km and feeling so confused because my body said I didn't really do anything felt frustrating. To cut it short: Be gentle with yourself, you don't deserve to be treated so harshly as if you failed at something of utmost importance. Be nice to yourself, ask your body and all other parts if some speed work could solve a lot of issues. Hope you feel better after two years, cheers from Germany :)
Thanks for this video
Thank you for watching!
Hello, I don't leave comments under videos, but I've been watching many running channels for a few weeks and checking out about 20 shoe models. Your reviews are amazing. I can compare them to kofuzi, yowana, eddbud, aubrey and you should get the same or more views. The ratings are exceptionally accurate and consistent with my thoughts. I'd love to see more reviews, there are so many new shoes and changes in technology on the market these days. I wish you the best and I'm glad I found your channel!
Thank you very much for the encouragement, it means a lot. I definitely question if my videos are useful to folks so hearing this type of stuff helps me a ton! I have a few new shoes I'll put out some videos for shortly :) Have a great weekend!
@@BrendonCamm I'm glad you're planning new reviews. I would love to hear your review of such popular shoes as alphafly 3, novablast 4, hoka cielo x1, invincible 3, asics metaspeed sky etc. Additionally, I think that your successful fight against extra kilos is your superpower and gives you extra credibility compared to others, keep it up!
The problem with MAF is that, despite the insistence by Maffetone that it is a personalized plan, literally any plan that uses age as a measuring stick instead of actually finding the maximum heart rate and/or the threshold heart rate is based on an outdated hypothesis that is wrong for 35% of the population and wrong by double digits for 10% of the population. My max is about 20 higher than age suggests. That being said, when you mentioned several hard days in a row, I think that you may have swung the pendulum too far the other way. Arthur Lydiard took the advice of Pete Seeger that he got from Solomon that "to everything there is a season." Unless you have a lot of fast-twitch muscles or are focusing on a short event like the 800, you really shouldn't be doing more than one or two speed sessions a week in the peak building season, or maybe one plus a race in the main part of race season. Slow jogging helped me a lot when I got injured to try to find a way back into it, but come August, once I start to get back to a good weight and get this season out of the way, I'm going to switch to Lydiard training since my main focus is the mile and 5K.
Very inspiring video, glad I found it! Do you know what your starting VO2 max was and how long it took to improve?
Hmmm I didn't measure it right away, but when I started measuring it on a garmin it started at ~47 then gradually peaked at 60! It took a while to get to the peak, but was able to see it rise gradually over a few months of consistent training :)
@@BrendonCammthanks for the reply! I’m 42 and my Vo2 max is 39, but I’ve only been running consistently for just over three weeks. I’ve run on and off for years but never with consistency, so this gives me hope that just plugging away towards that foundation I need, will really help. I think there is something about your body needing time to learn to build the appropriate biological support as well; CNS, lungs etc . I’ll stick to consistency and see how I get along. Again, huge respect for turning it around like you did, you literally turned your life around and that’s no small feat 😊
Wonder how it is for swimming
I noticed in less then a month running my appetite got smaller sounds weird but I’m not as hungry and when I want to cheat I won’t finish a large fries 🍟 I Sleep better
Still love it?
absolutely.
$14.99 at Ross, plus i brought my mom on a Tuesday and got her 10% on top
Faxxx just got some aeroswift shorts
A lot of overweight people eat so many calories that they will never be able to burn those excess calories by exercising. Getting your diet under control should be every overweight person’s first priority.
100%
To answer the question of the title from my perspective: You will see progress in a week or less, ONLY if you have started eating clean and probably self cooked food. The running it's just an extra so you lose the extra calories, hence the extra weight. Other benefits are of course building endurance and getting fresh air. But if you don't fix your eating habits, when running, you will probably get even hungrier after and gain more weight if the caloric intake is more than what you spend by running.
Thank k you for saying cardio is better to lose weight, I learned the hard way
Thank you for making this video!!! ❤❤❤
1.) reframe mindset. Most start running when overweight. Better to shift your identity to a runner who is overweight. This will build confidence of being a runner not an overweight person. Runners come in all shapes and sizes 2.) take baby steps. Go out for a short amount of time and stop even if you think you can go longer. If you push yourself you’re gonna be soar and crampy. 3.) proper footwear. A lot of foam, will compress and protect your joints. Start low and slow and with proper gear 4.) find a quiet a street, not wanting people to see you. Embarrassment from the jiggling and sweat. Limit exposure 5.) prioritize recovery and mobility. You’re likely in a sedentary lifestyle so body may be tight and not moving. Get proper stretching routine before and after run.
I needed this 🙌. Thank you 🙏
Hi Brendon. I found your channel this morning and love it! I'm an unhealthy 62 year old man who has hated sport of any kind for as long as I can remember. I have COPD, osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes and am bipolar (so lots of medication). In September 2023, I decided enough was enough. So far (up until) March 2024 I have lost 34lbs in weight. For some strange reason, I want to start running! I have made an appointment with my Doctor to make sure my heart can take it. I weigh, as of yesterday, 238 and a 1/2 lbs. Would your starter recommendations be the same for someone of my age and lack of physical exercise? Many thanks Dave UK
Hi Dave! Wow, congrats on the great progress :) Definitely best to see your doctor to see what they say. But if they give you the go ahead, I think starting out easy and very slowly adding in distance and speed is the best way to get into running for most people. I recently took a break and then got back into training and I actually took the same approach! I feel it's universal :) I hope everything goes well, keep up the great work!
After my Saucony endorphin I was expecting to be a great shoes but,I find it too big and chunky.Often I kick my calf during runs.Back to saucony works better for me.
Saucony is the best!
