Improving running form is essential for success in any running event or endurance sport. Having good running form can help you run faster, farther, and with less effort. Poor running form can lead to injury, fatigue, and decreased performance.
Unfortunately, many runners focus on the appearance of their running form instead of its efficiency. They want to look like the pros, but they don't consider the fact that the pros have likely been running for years and have developed their own unique and efficient form. It's not about looking good, it's about being efficient and effective.

This was a wild one I almost didn’t put out. But after editing it and realising there was a lot of great information in here I let it slide.
The reason why I wasn’t feeling it is that I wanted to talk about Vo2max workouts in this. But then I realised halfway through that we should have clearly explained what Vo2 and Vo2max were (they are different btw, and I use them interchangeably)
Do you need to know advanced exercise science to get this? No. But this is a great intro to a bit of the science behind why certain workouts do certain things.
In the future I’ll probably break down each part and go deep and have it as it’s own episode to keep things very simple for everyone but also interesting.
Oh and a random fun fact about Vo2 max - Did you know that a high Vo2 max score correlates with high health, and longevity as you age? Yes, so even more reason to keep doing those intervals and base aerobic runs.
What you’ll learn because I sure as hell learned a lot:
03:18 VO2 Max explained.03:52 The difference between Vo2max workouts, Vo2max and Vo207:39 A great car analogy of aerobic vs anaerobic energy systems - mike has so many15:01 Fat-burning and VO2 Max.15:15 Why the aerobic engine is so damn important22:38 Discipline in VO2 Max training.26:24 Measuring VO2 with heart rate.29:33 VO2 max and running performance.32:19 What to do with all of this33:59 Time as a valuable resource.And much more

Running gels are like stocks in the stock market. Some people swear by them and couldn't imagine training for a marathon without them, while others avoid them at all costs. Like with stocks, it's essential to research and determines what works best for you personally.
We discuss using running gels as a source of energy during long runs or races. Then we emphasize the importance of researching and determining what works best for each runner, as some runners swear by gels while others avoid them altogether.
Rounding into the importance of choosing a gel containing the correct carbohydrate type, such as a glucose polymer or maltodextrin, which has a slower absorption rate and a more sustained energy release.
And last - the importance of experimenting with different amounts of gel and timing of consumption.

A few episodes back, we talked about four tips when coming back from injury. Now let’s talk about the long and bumpy road to connecting the dots and running your best times once you’ve gotten through that initial injury recovery period.
There are four essential tips that we will walk through;
You develop new mental toughnessYou have something new to trackYou get to learn the basics (this is a good thing)Follow (good) medical advice
On that last point - we are not doctors, nor do we play any on the internet; please go see a proper sports medicine specialist to diagnose your specific and individual problem. Listen to learn more.

Notable Quotables“Get good medical advice. Some doctors don't like sports and may say "you got injured running, don't do it anymore" - That isn’t good for everyone.”“When I got injured I got to go back to the basics which force me to slow down and do other things that I enjoy.”“Once you're injured - Don't lose that aerobic base. If you can, just keep moving without pain.”“I think my longevity in this sport is because I'm not mentally tough. It makes me not overdo it.”
