วีดีโอ

I just started running, and the havoc it brings on my bowels is otherworldly. I run, get home then violently shit then feel like crap the rest of the day. Progress

Thank you for this excellent and inspiring discussion! I'm mostly plant based (other than occasional fish here and there living in the Gulf Coast). So much great information and knowledge bombs in this episode. This led me to your website and following Lizzie on Instagram! Looking forward to up my performance, nutrition, recovery, and improve time this year in 70.3!

Garmin is guessing? I think you should look at how regressions are done and how they are utilised by garmin. It will work for majority of users. You feel like Garmin guesses is bot objective.

Hey. Really enjoyed your video but I disagree on one part in regards to running results on the treadmill you suggested a 17km threshold runner goes up 1.5 every step. I would suggest this is too much to get all the readings you need. As you approach the predicted threshold I think it’s worth using smaller increments to get the correct data. For example my L1 and L2 are within 1.5km/h of each other so to get the right numbers I’d need a small testing jump

stopped watching when dude said carbs are key for a half marathon xD wtf

I've run about five 10k races but haven't run for about 18 months and want to do another run in 4 months. Do you think it's beyond me to run my first half or would you do a 10k?

thank you! what about potassium and magnesium? How much do I need to add without sh*tting myself and peeing like a race horse? Thanks!

My vo2 max is lower than yours on Garmin but my race predictions (which I think are atleast 20%) optimistic are a tad faster. I wonder why that is.

I don’t believe what the watch told me but I use the good thing the watch tell for motivation 😂😂

Regular table, sugar and regular salt. That's pretty cheap, should be using something like cane sugar and himalayan pink salt.That way, you're getting proper minerals and sugars. Gatorade is a terrible sports drink. Brand full of sugar and unhealthy ingredients. And I would not use that as a basis for creating another energy drink.

HRV data can be served as an early warning on the onset of illness. Ignore this nonsense.

We’re hat gefragt 👵🏿

I know a guy who runs marathons fasted

Thanks. That glycogen needing extra water is interesting, I race at 30 to 50g carbs/hr. It seems staying on top of fluids is more critical. I previously thought my carb drink is water based so that should be enough. Thanks again.

I ran a half marathon yesterday. It was pretty cold outside (like -5°C). Now i'm feeling pretty feverish and dizzy. Almost like a hangover after running

Thankss

I was having exactly same experience. I am 62 and do a lot of running, have a strong health. Initially I enjoyed the extra data, but I got confused and began to make me worried , did I need to relax or could I put pressure on my training. Same time I was trying to do zone 2 training but it also seem like garmin messed zone estimate based on the wrong sleep and hrv data. Since September I have just skipped these metrics and my training is great - doing 48 vo2 max 😆

Thanks so much. I pray tomorrow I bring a PB after following this

Thanks for saving me $500 on garmin. I will continue to listen to my body. Best advise.TY

Knowledge is power thanks to this video I learned a lot because I had gastric during the run❤

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you for the great video! I‘m running a marathon in 10 days and plan on using your carbohydrate loading plan for a 60kg athlete. However, 3600 kcal seem like a lot of calories to have within 24 hours. I‘m scared of feeling overly full or heavy during my marathon. Is the total calories per day during the carb load supposed to be much higher than on an average day?

Finally, I’ve found what I’m looking for❤🏃‍♀️practice carbload thanks❤

Really good advise... I did my first marathon and cramped up at 25km... pre-race, I only did 2x 21km and not beyond that, next marathon I will do at least 2x 3/4 marathon before the actual event... 😅

Your calorie slide is a bit simplistic. lol. I am a female the trains about and hour a day, but my calorie needs are closer to 2000 because I'm 5'11".

What amount for 12 year old playing football

i think it was the carbon shoe that overloaded my calves and made me cramp, or I didn't warm up..

Great tips!

HM tomorrow 😊

A balanced and pragmatic approach to nutrition, and training load; we all need to understand the link between fuel and performance. Glad that Harry reached out to you! I mentioned you in his post on DNF South Africa and wonder if this prompted the connection? As ever informative!

Looking to run my first ever marathon in 2025 baby!

Training too hard too often (see most triathletes) can mess up your gut and digestion. So the training has more to blame than his diet or intolerances.

For another interesting perspective on this topic, I implore you to watch the nutrition videos on TH-cam channel ‘XC Skiing Universe’. It’s a Norwegian channel that focuses on training and nutrition in cross country skiing (athletes who supposedly have the highest v02 max of anyone), but it often features Eden, Blummenfelt and their coach, as well as Ingebritsen. And the amount of junk food they claim to eat in order to get enough calories is almost incomprehensible, to the point i wonder if Norwegians are trolling on a national level. It would actually be super interesting to see you do a reaction video, and hear your opinion.

Loved this video. Great to see the crossover with Harry Palmer too. He needs to get sponsored by Warburtons. Probably needs to stop calling it crappy bread though :p I think he should consider himself lucky he can get away with eating 60g an hour. His fatmax is probably super high. I personally see a big drop off in performance going under 100g. I would test how high i could go if i could afford it! But i suspect I’d have no problems with 150g. I think I’m also quite lucky in that i can eat a super high amount of oats without any problems, which is surely better for gut health, which i think gets overlooked in this discussion in general. Although having said that, it can sometimes make me a little late for swim training in the mornings if i have to spend too much time on the toilet seat :p As for those cookies, i avoid them like the plague. Surely they are the closest food equivalent to crack! :p

Weetabix :D

Interesting discussion thanks. Interesting data on the firstbeat website which underpins the Garmin sleep data compares it to polysomnography and it’s not bad

Crappy food makes me feel & perform like shit. I like the way healthy clean food tastes lol so it makes it easy to stick to it but I definitely notice a difference in performance & inflammation between clean & “dirty” food. YMMV!

Refined sugar with a low-fat diet is the way to go. Starches, fruits, legumes, vegetables and refined sugar.

I had half a bottle of an electrolyte drink the night before and the remaining morning of a 10K. Also beat and carrot juice. No stomach issues nor mid race bathroom emergencies. Hew~😂

Surely the data is purely a source of information and is more valid that your TH-cam opinion

Do you have any other suggestions on what to eat during the race aside from gels, chews and jelly beans? I don't know if any of those would agree with me and so I just wanted other options. Granola bar? Gummy Bears? Mini muffins? I heard one person say they ate peanut butter cups for the protein and sugar but I am afraid that would melt. I am running my first half marathon in May and I just want to be prepared :)

Agree 100% My fitness has dropped for the last 3 months since I started following training recommendations based on my sleep and HRV. I am done with it.

Had mine a few weeks and it predicts I can run a sub-20 5k, which has never happened. PB is 21:30, so think it's a little optimistic.

Bit out of topic ,but what do you think... 10k race and like 3 hours before porridge,banana and honey be sufficient for good performance?

Guys, stick to your metrics as an adult does. It is objektive data and it makes no sense what this fidget nutrition guy tells you. Get the data and decide...

This is helpful!!!
