Beginning our running journey can be for some as helpless as when we first learned to walk.
The tried and tested low intensive adaptive programme is reassuring as is the knowledge and experience of the forum.
As we progress and find the things we need to support our achievements, enjoyment and personal choices, many doors can open up.
Nothing however has prepared me for the extent of medical research found on here and itβs findings.
Truly inspiring and for me it cannot be ignored.
Get fit in six minutes per week.
It is ironic that to run for life you first must run for your life.Yes fight or flight , gut bursting, HIT, sprinting.
On this video it gives the details, 3 sessions per week, 20 mins of which 2 mins are flat out sprinting.So one hour per week.
It shows that this is the only way to renew/replace for some our mitochondria and increase our VO2max.
It does not claim to replace low intensity training but all the medical research contained in this video has very profound benefits to our health and indeed extended life as is demonstrated.
I believe we are all responsible for ourselves, choices and health, but we are also precious.
I think this forum is also great at unravelling the misinformation and unfounded claims and recognising profound research when presented with it.
I cannot ignore the pursuit of these findings and replacing some of the lower intensity running.
I have watched this video through several times, and as a non medic, I have tried to understand what it is concluding.
I am looking forward to following it, and comparing it with other interval speed training.
Never could I have been prepared on embarking on this journey to find that our bodies repair better by abdominal breathing, modest fasting and now by sprinting,it can renew mitochondria which is around 10% of our body mass and also helps fights disease and extends life.
Its run for life alright and how you do it is run for your life.
