I trained Thai boxing in a professional camp in Thailand on a few occasions when younger. All the fighters run 10k in the morning 6-7 days a week, some camps run another 6-8k in the afternoon before the evening session, these runs are before bag work, pad work, sparring, clinching etc.. Brutal training tbh and as a "lazy" foreigner I used to skip a lot of the running but watching them as professional athletes it was no sprinting or modern training and S&C that people do in the west . Steady state cardio, push ups pull ups etc to build up the aerobic engine.
To add to my comment, I think that a lot of people who use their 180-age number to train and aren’t improving or are unhappy with MAF should consider establishing zones based on max heart rate and try that for a while, keeping it at an 80/20 or 90/10 effort every week.
Great video Dave. I love Maffatone! Ran 4 miles this morning. Still struggle with consistency and insomnia but will keep pushing thru. Glad the Mrs is doing well and on the mend.
Enjoyed the video Dave, nice Hawks hat too👍. Been more than 30 days since I have run(100 miler takes it toll) so thanks for picking up my slack. Looking forward to watching the 60 days video. Cheers Gary
Glad you liked it Fred!!! It took sometime to put it all together and after missing last week and ALMOST TODAY ( I lost the file after I exported it from my video editor). I wanted to change a few things but I would have had to start all over and NO WAY that was going to happen. I've put so many hours into the editing that I started to tear up at 1:00am when that happened.
Very interesting Dave. It’s fun to experiment to try out new ways to do heart rate training. As the saying goes, there’s more than one way to skin a cat. Did you do a field test to determine your max heart rate to establish your zones?
Something that could help you out to do more intense exercise is seeing the benefits of it, i would put down the link of the video but YT detect comments with links as spam so this is the title; "The Longevity & Brain Benefits of Vigorous Exercise | Dr. Rhonda Patrick" the video is separated in sections so you can look what most interests you. Keep it up with those videos mate!
I'm getting 10,000 steps in a day. It may not seem like much, but I haven't been doing too much of anything lately and for this month I am getting my steps in through walking and running.
Awesome Dave! What an accomplishment! I'm personally not a fan of running a minimum distance every day (I injure myself always wanting more). I'm a huge fan of training the way you want to train. Even if it's "sub-optimal." It could be a way of training for optimal enjoyment! Keep going and stay healthy!
Nice try, but don´t forget the rest days! You can do this for a few weeks but with your long term goal ahead, this is probably not the way to do it. But as long as you don´t get injured, have fun!
@@ThePlantPoweredRunner I sort of agree, those days you really felt crappy might have been from lack of recovery versus what you ate the night before. I like to get out there too and on my rest days I will still walk fast for recovery.
Good to see you firing on all cylinders Dave. Habit is awesome for consistency and consistency is the secret to improvement. A friend has just celebrated a 1000 day run streak, that is some habit! His shortest run was 4k. Keep going but maybe allow yourself the option of running shorter some days. Looking forward to the next video.
Very cool i never watch videos longer than 30 seconds and I watched the whole thing. Super cool im doing lots of running and swimming these days from 94kg guy im down to 72 :) back in time i was a pro triathlete now im at 70 percent of that shape, btw i was 66 when I competed.
That's a good video Dave ! I can see how it took along time. Last year I did the november calendar run, everyday whatever the calender said in km. It was easy say day 1 to 10, 11 to 20 started getting tough, but guess what? Day 20 to 30 became okay, body adapted even though I added another km per day. I didn't think it would go like that. So, I think you should keep going but at some point, take a day off 😂
I was running today but I was able to sustain 134 to 144 without stopping ,,,,,,I’m currently working with a tri Athlon he sends wk outs to me ,I guess they’re all relevant,,,it’s a bit costly 80£ a month but it’s really good ,,it goes to my watch and I do interval ,tempo etc runs ,also I’m getting swimming,cycling relative wk outs ,,,u should look at this type of idea it’s brilliant
U could even use the coach I use / I don’t have any vested interest,he has sent wk outs free to me to c what I think,there’s no intial commitment and it is pretty exciting
Every session I’m doing is tailored to getting better ,,, ,you should get a pro on board ,,,,,the guy I got so far has been great ,,,,if u want I can give u details ,,,,,,so far he’s given me a week with no payment? U should try there’s no commitment , hope u don’t think,it’s a ponzie scheme
@@ThePlantPoweredRunner I can give up his details ,check him out on the web ,I think it could really suite you,,,,I’ve sent a few emails to u over the period so hopefully u don’t think,I’m trying to rip u off ,,

Fergus, thanks for taking the time to share your story :)
So glad to hear your wife is doing good after surgery!!!
Thanks Mark, so am I.
This makes me happy . Consistency wins every day. Set the standard
Thanks Steve. Consistency wins every day in my book! It doesn't get easier I just get faster and run longer...LOL

I agree 100%! Slow and steady always wins in my book :)
Agree

Good stuff! Thanks. She is doing very well these days. Keep running :)

Rock on Gary! Thanks so much :)
It’s great to see you so fired up again Dave, you got this 👍💪
Thanks Cliff 👍. It feels great to be back :)
As someone else said, don't forget the rest days.
Thanks for watching Mark. Yes, I agree ;)
Cool experiment, and good to hear that it's been enjoyable and hasn't been a slog! Will be interesting to see if you decide to carry on 👍
Fingers crossed! Thanks for watching :)
Congrats on accomplishing this challenge. You look great and enjoying the process and this is what is all about.
Thanks so much! 😊. It really is :)
Great effort and very well presented video.

Yeah, I like to try new things and see what happens. I did one and was happy with how it went. I might make a video on it to show others what I did.
Great to see u all back to ur zone 👍🙌
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch. I'm happy with where I'm at and how things are progressing

Good for you!!!! 10,000 is a very good number. Thanks for sharing and for watching
