I don't have time to separate my running and gym workouts so I just run to the gym, lift, run home. It's a 3 mile round trip so I get a few miles a day in and then I'll try to get a long run in on the weekend. I've been doing this for 2 months now and it feels great!
i've done this at times when my schedule was bad and actually really enjoyed it - easy warmup to the gym and some mental toughness running home after a hard lift, esp after leg day!
Same. I do kinda wish I could separate the two but family and 12 hour shifts is tough. So I also lift, then follow up with anywhere from 2 miles to 5 regularly with a longer run on weekends. Anywhere from 5-10, slowly increasing those long runs over last year and a half. It’s not ideal but my body has adapted over time and I feel great. It would be even better if I didn’t work 5-6 or even 7 days of 12 hour swing shifts. One day I won’t need to work so much, so I do get pretty damn tired some days. Nick Bare has legitimately changed my life. It is 100% better than living on energy drinks and eating on the go garbage like every other person I see at work. I’m pretty damn proud of that, but I get crap from these people everyday for what I do like I’m doing something wrong. Can you believe that?
I think a lot of people are confused in the fact that you do not have to run marathons or Ultra marathons. It's just putting running into your fitness plans because you the individual like to run. Also, start with mileage you can handle. Don't give yourself rhabdo just to tell people that you're running now. And the most important thing is, don't let someone that doesn't even run, judge what you're doing for fitness.
I agree with the term Hybrid athlete. Most non-professional regular athletic people don’t run and lift. They are either avid runners or avid lifters. Great content.
I strength train and run regularly. I enjoy trail running and half marathons. You need to keep your strength up. Especially your single leg, back and core strength. Keep your squat up, and do some Olympic weightlifting to build power. Also do some sled work. Keep it simple and focus on the big lifts. I was doing an 18 mile club run in the city this past weekend, and I was able to power up hilly streets, whereas others had to stop and walk, because I’ve maintained my strength training, as well as running. You also need to focus on weekly volume and load management, not a bodybuilding style bro split plan.
I work 12 hour swing shifts 5-6 even 7 days a week with some stretches go 14-17 days straight. I wake up 3am or pm, depending on day or night shift. Fuel, lift for anywhere from 15-30 minutes, run from 15-20 minutes, some days up to 45 ish. I do this at least 5-6 days a week or more and take a day off every 10 maybe. I’d lose my mind I think if I didn’t workout and run. I do all this and read at work when I can, and I get made fun of daily for my daily food prep, exercising and reading. These really messes with me some days but maybe one day it’ll pay off and I’ll be in better place, for now it’s just to hold on to my sanity
Nick, you are very famous here in Brazil. Hybrid training has grown a lot here and you are one of the references. I have a similar body type to you and I come from strength sports. In recent years I have been focusing on running and with that, I follow your work to learn. Congratulations!!
27:54 i work 12 hour shifts and to my cardio/ incline weighted treadmill in the morimg and lift resistant train .. kettle bell work outbat night ..im only able to get one maybe 2 long outdoor runs a week at least every sunday.. after ny family dinner.. i trick my brain into thinking im using that dinner for fuel. Works every time lol .😅 all thisngive me a sence of control over my chaotic life.. its something , the only thing i CAN control..
Great info as always Nick! More and more the “Hybrid” platform is taking over. Just like UFC. The UFC started with everybody doing their own individual discipline. Now everybody does a mix of all disciplines. Hybrid as well. I’d really love to see you get a chat with Alex Viada. He was doing this years ago when it was very unaccepted and blew everybody’s mind.
what if we invented a training regimen that required fitness across broad time and modal domains that required people to be a hybrid of lifters, endurance, and gymnasts and called it CrossFit.
People forget that strength training doesn’t need to be this 1-2 hr drawn out session. A 20-30 mins session can be very efficient and effective, if executed with intention.
Debatable. Effective at maintaining what you currently have in muscle mass, yes. Effective in growing muscle effectively and efficiently not really. You wouldn’t be able to get enough weekly volume unless you did multiple trigger sessions a day. Think about zone 2 or your higher intensity cardio. Is 20-30 minutes going to be enough. Not really.
Gold Nugget at 45:56 for me personally. I've been training fasted and probably dehydrated most of the time that's why I feel so drained during and after training sessions
Nick, at 51, After my workout routine in the mornings and work during the day, I'm exhausted to the point where I can't manage staying awake. I strength train and do a quick mile run, Sunday through Friday. Any suggestions?
Love the episode! Could you possibly give some advice on how to get through a weight loss plateau? I've lost about 50 lbs over the past 2 years or so, I weight train 3-4 days a week and do about 5-10 minutes of cardio after each session. I've been stuck at 188-190lbs even though I've been consistently training and eating the same as I have been and it's been really frustrating. Do I need to adjust calories some more, add more cardio, both? Just curious what your first step would be when approaching that, thanks!
If you hit a plateau that means that you need to go into a calorie deficit again. So adjuster calories and add another 15 minutes to your running and like he says in this episode you have to adjust as you go your body is used to the regime that you set for yourself.
The ACSM has been suggesting to combine strength training and aerobic training for decades. Hybrid training is just the latest fitness hype. Before it was CrossFit, in the future something else. The basics of training remain the same
@@RollTide137Yeah, I've lost a ton of interest for Nick lately because it just seems like the same stuff over and over and for some reason just felt more fake the more I watched.
@@MidnightTacoRunthat’s how the fitness community is regardless if it’s running, lifting , mountain biking . Once you know most and have been doing it for awhile it all starts sounding the same . But it’s a good message to say again because new people will always hop back on here. So they are learning some good staples to fitness.
35:54 i hate when i train too hard i get no sleep due to the side effects of lifting too hard..but i don't know im pushing it too hard untill its too late 😅😢DONS is the only soreness I get 😢😢 if I every take a day off where indont do anything..thay night and the next day is pure hell..so I gotta keep moving
Any tips for running when it’s dark? Especially safety tips for women? I would love to run early in the morning when it’s still a little dark but have always been too fearful and paranoid. I’ve looked into running clubs in my area but they take place during the day or the afternoon. And I’ve yet to find someone who would like to run with me. So if there’s any women who have safety things they do that make them feel safer running solo when it’s dark please let me know! :)
I do think you're making sacrifices to focus on splitting your training between the two. But who cares! So your arms are an inch bigger but you can't run a sub 8min mile or you can run a 3:30 marathon but can't deadlift/bench or squat above your body weight. I think a hybrid athlete can realistically get 80-90% of of both worlds and will be better off for it. Someday I want to do a power lifting comp and complete an Olympic tri in the same weekend.
But one does take away from the other. Nobody is lifting AND gaining size simultaneously during a serious marathon block. Yes you can lift and should. But you will not see your run potential while trying to build size at the same time.
This whole "hybrid" athlete thing just doesn't make sense to me. Literally all professional athletes do cardio and lift weights. It's just being an athlete.
46:31. Actually the theory isn’t correct. It IS true that your body will burn fat when fasted, however, you will NOT lose more total body fat doing that over non-fasted cardio because while you burn more calories form glycogen in non-fasted cardio, if your body is in a caloric deficit at the end of the day or week it will pull store energy from adipose tissue and burn it off. So the net result is the net calories you burned, whether it came more from fat or glycogen. If you burn more fat faster, but you’re not in a caloric deficit, your body will burn more fat during that session, but store more fat later from the additional calories you eat. So the main determiners of whether you’re burning fat doing any cardio is whether you’re in a caloric deficit at the end of the day and week.
You have a long way to go as a parent lol 😂. It’s almost laughable. One day you will have practices for each kid at different times and need to work and care for your wife and you will realize what people are saying about how blessed you are to be able to do what you get to do. People watching your videos are up at 4:30 and up until 11-12 at night making it all happen so as much as you want people to respect your work, you need to respect theirs.
Come on man this is out of touched You act like your audience is similar to you. Or in similar circumstances. Folks say you work out for your job because your work is where your gym is. There’s no after work to gym commute for you, there’s no long days on a job site plus a drive plus a crowd at a gym. You work barely nine hours a day. As you said here, you begin meetings between 8:30am and 9. Then you end work between 4pm to 5pm. Then work “a little” but before bed. I’m a lower level manager at a large company and my day begins at 7am with an east coast meeting and ends at 7pm. And that’s normal for folks trying to climb ladders and make more of their lives. You are not like most average people Nick. You began with a small loan while in rotc, kept inventory at your parents house for free, and had free labor from family. Your story is not the norm for America man. And I wish you understood that so you sounded less out of touch.
I 100% had your back when people said "it must be nice" and you said "fitness isn't y job..." and then messed up by saying "i show up to the office around 8:30 -9 and leave around 4-4:30" .. now i am on their side.. those are part time hours Nick. If I worked those hours i could put in 70 miles a week and 4 lifting sessions too. But normal folk are usually gone 12 hours a day for work when you factor in commute. So.. "it must be nice."
I dont think you consider filming these videos as part of his job lol. Hes workouts is basically clocked working hours as its direct marketing to his supplement company.
My guy, those are basically regular 40 hour work week hours. Calling that part time is stupid and makes me think you're one of those guys that thinks you're better than other people because you wake up early and work 12 hours a day. No one cares. If you care enough about fitness, or literally anything else, you'll find a way. If you don't, you won't, it's pretty simple. I work from home 5:30-2:00 when we're not on OT. No dealing with traffic, no office drama, it's the best thing I've done in my life. And yes, I know some jobs can't work from home but everyone had/has the opportunity to get into a field that can work from home.
@@dustinmaherfitness naw i love my job.. but i find time for fitness... Family1st. Work 2nd. Fitness 3rd. I was just saying, those hours aren't what most people work.. wasn't hating.. just stating facts.
100% he's on gear. In the videos I've watched of his I don't think he's ever claimed to be natural though? Yes, his whole persona is about eating clean and all that which gives off the vibe that he would be natural but I don't think he's ever said he was. Correct me if I'm wrong of course.

There is an interference factor usually so prioritize which sport you want moremore gains in, and do that first (if in same session)
i've done this at times when my schedule was bad and actually really enjoyed it - easy warmup to the gym and some mental toughness running home after a hard lift, esp after leg day!

How many videos can you really make about hybrid athlete info? It’s the same stuff every video.
Best part about being hybrid is you never need to be good enough at anything to get drug tested. :-/
You and your staff need to also look into Hyrox
This whole "hybrid" athlete thing just doesn't make sense to me. Literally all professional athletes do cardio and lift weights. It's just being an athlete.
It’s the extra PED’s so you look good with your shirt off lol 😂

Yeah bro so many distance runners lifting weights and being jacked. You do realize your average endurance athlete has the muscle mass of a gecko.
