    Hey everyone, my name is Emmanuel, but everyone calls me natos.
    If you like the content consider subscribing, haha, and if you dont like it because you think racewalking isnt a sport, well... subscribe anyways because you might learn something cool about it. Racewalking is a professional Track and Field event that has been in the Olympics since 1904, so its one of the oldest. Fun fact, at one point it used to be more popular than Baseball.

    Do you ever run to use different muscle groups? I've seen some racewalkers run intervals to improve VO2 max and to keep injuries at bay.

      ALL the time! I come from a running background! a lot of people dont know that about me, but I only started walking when I was 21. My first 10-12 years in track and field were running. Every racewalker in the world should implement running in their training to push fitness for VO2 max, like you said, but more importantly to not neglect other muscle groups! My best years as a race walker had afternoon runs almost 4 days out of the week every week. but a majority of my milage is always gonna be walking for the sake of perfecting technique. Great question!

      @@EWALK I use to be a runner too but now with lower spine messed up, speed walking it is. I use bike 2x week for interval training doing hill sprints to get to 190bpm. I can't never get my heart rate over 170bpm walking uphill. Thanks for the reply.

      @troutjunkie7330 it’s true that heart rate doesn’t get that high while race walking, but it doesn’t necessarily need to do that if the mileage is high enough. I train a lot through high mileage and through high speed.
      Doing a solid 75 to 80 miles a week can really make up for it. But I understand what you’re saying.

      I appreciate it. For real, all I’m trying to do is represent. My philosophy is you don’t have to respect the event, but hopefully you can respect me as an athlete. I got just as much dog in me as the next guy. 🔥

      I also run in my spare time. But running and elite Racewalking are very different. If you'd like to learn more about Racewalking, you can subscribe for more!

      You would be correct Brian. At an elite level, almost all athletes are off the ground. The official rule of Racewalking states that both feet must remain in contact with the ground at all times "to the human eye" this is a very important part of the Sport that a lot of people tend to forget. If you understand that it's not the intention of an athlete to purposefully go and lift with both feet off the ground, then you can see that every country in the world treats it the same way. Cameras are not allowed to be used and because of the classic nature of the event, we are always being judged with anywhere between 3 to 5 official judges on a course at any time. Believe me when I say, I have been disqualified before in the past, and it is a very natural part of the event. But this channel is for representation of what an athlete in the life of a professional racewalking event would look like. it's fine if you don't agree with it, but a lot of people who care about the event do tend to ask me for advice on how to improve.
