I started strength training and a little bit of running for fat loss again recently. I'm kind of an idiot and a little bit too ambitious for my own good, so I got a pair of barefoot shoes. Really sore calves for a bit, but got used to it. 40 years old, currently at 212 lbs (~29% body fat), and about 12:30 mile. I had a sub 9 min a few years ago, looking forward to get back and better.
I am visiting friends in Tampa and was in a Fit 2 Run 2 days ago; now this pops into my feed……the robots are definitely taking over 😂. Oh ya, great tips; subscribed!
Hey Jess! Thank you for making these videos. Remember you are a true inspiration. You are the reason why I started running again!
I'm so proud of you! Thank you for all of your support on my journey too

That's awesome, you will get there sooner than you think! One tip for sore calves is to strengthen the muscle around them (shins and calves both)
@jxssfit yeah, my calves got better pretty fast, just sore all over for a little bit after waking up now 🤣
Love these tips! You made this knowing I was thinking about starting to run 😏😂
I've got a running watch with your name on it!
