I wanna run again. In my teens I used to weigh 115 and run miles every week. My running time was 6:20 per mile. I have smoke for 20 years and now I’m over 220 pounds. I just quit smoking last week and I wanna run again but dam I don’t know where to start
Go get back out there and run. You can do it! I've never ran a 6:20 ever that's flying! I think next week I'll do a video where I test my mile to see where I'm at. You should too and then work to get it lower and lower. Happy running!
Goku Runner
Thanks for the encouragement .... time to shed some pounds and run.
Hows your progress going now?
Lost my jaybirds after mowing once I think my dog moved them around the yard. Used the find your phones function which tells you a general area where your headphones may be. Took me 2 hours to find them. That general area basically told me it was in my house or yard. 😂
This is encouraging. I used to run 6miles a day and I was 190 and I'm 5"6. Thats like a great weight for me. Now I'm 240 and I started running again, I'm doing 3 miles for now. The endurance is still there, hopefully some weight loss soon too lol. I'm really enjoying my runs, but even at 190, I never had that runner body. Thought I was the only one
Awesome keep at it. A prototypical runners body I don't have but we are runners so whatever body we have is a runners body. Cheers.

yes! that's a game changer for sure. If you are larger chested like me and hate wires I HIGHLY recommend the "Medium Impact Cooling No-Wire Sport Bra" by Cacique (Lane Bryant). I don't run, but I do jog and I really like this bra. Comfortable and supportive!
@@GokuRunner yes will do! Thanks
@@Voileen I'll look into that!
I zip up my jacket when I run, because I don't want people to see my *🍒* to jiggle 😪
1. Walk before you can jog and jog before you can run.
2. Run in the right gear.
3. Use anti-chaffing products.
4. Join a running group/club.
5. Don’t care what everyone else thinks.
Nice! Thanks for checking out the vid.

Lmao thanks for the summary, saved me 5 minutes of this dude trying to sell me affiliate garbage you don't actually need.
Lol I said you need antichaffing stuff cost like 5 bucks it don't matter to me if you buy anything or not. Just sharing info my brother.
I think no.5 is very important.
Fat people like me are care other person's eyes and what they think about me
For example, oh look at that! Fatty man running! It seems like a boar HAHA!
The fact is nobody doesn't think like that and doesn't care about us.
So...just do something
If you are out of breath when you are running just a quarter mile? Then just work till you fine
@@멍멍꿀-c6b exactly. Do it until your comfy. Great tip.
Deodorant is a great chafing product, no lie
This true too!
I love the practical advice in this video. Really important tips, especially number 5. Thanks for this. instant sub.
Thanks. Yes some people think to much and get in their own way. Thanks for sub!
Just subbed man this helped me a lot! The Walk before you can jog, jog before you can run thing stuck with me. Thank you so much.
Awesome. Yes gotta start somewhere. Hope your running journey is going well!
You can enjoy a run 😳

Great tips. Have you ever shown your medal room? I don't remember seeing it before. Impressive.
I haven't yet but maybe in a future video. Thanks
I started running since two days & my shin is in pain after few seconds of run , will it go away
I'd say check your shoes and your form. Make sure to not heel strike which can cause shin pain.
@@GokuRunner new shoes,not heel strike , im new to running is that the reason
@@santoshp7887 Did you get fitted for your shoes. Even if fitted they may not be the correct shoes. Make sure also to land under your hips when running. Overstriding can also cause shin pain. Since you are new make sure to follow my tip of increasing your distance slowly as well.
RUNNING AS A BIGGER RUNNER. YOU MEAN RUNNING AS A FAT ASS. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I'M A FAT ASS NOW I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS SHIT HAPPENED TO ME BUT I'M STRAIGHT UP 281LBS NOW I USE TO RUN 5 MILES AT FULL SPEED STOP AND TAKE MY SHOE STRINGS OUT OF MY SHOES CLEAN MY SHOES PUT MY SHOE LACES BACK ON WHILE I STANDED UP THE WHOLE TIME. NOW I'M CHOCKING AS SOON AS A START TO FALL ASLEEP OR LAY DOWN I. MISERABLE. GOOD VIDEO.

If you got flat feet. Asics or New Balance "preferably Asics" is the only shoes you should be wearing. Wore Nike for years and they felt terrible but I just toughed it out. Found Asics and now I'm not hurting.
definitely have to experiment with shoes.
What are some tips that you have for running as a bigger runner?

@@karenpeach4528 Have heard of Kelly Roberts she's on youtube and also very popular on instagram. She started a sports bra squad movement basically a movement for women to be comfortable in their own bodies and to run comfortably. Check out an article wrote about her. www.outsideonline.com/2156246/dont-tell-me-what-strong-looks
Hey man great vid! As a personal trainer I like to introduce running to my heavier clients. These tips are spot on to what i tell them. Also one thing I’m big on is working on running form with drills! Also the runner’s body” is a myth. We are all meant to run!
Chafing fucking sucks, compression shorts are a must ... even that runners nipple shit 😂 kills
Amen. Just ran a race this past weekend saw the 2nd place guy in the marathon had red streaks on his shirt. Ouch
@@GokuRunner hell yea, no bueno my guy
Im 14 and im 279 , when i run , i be slow😒
That's OK we all start somewhere. Don't worry about pace just keep getting out there.

Awesome. Are you doing Brazos again this year?
Very good video definitely I’m going to start running again it’s not easy I’m 1m75 105 kg but I love the feeling at the end of a run
Awesome go get your run on. You definitely never regret a run after doing one. Subscribe to my channel if you'd like I have a lot of other videos such as my marathon and ultramarathon videos and also my Goku Runner talks where I give running and diet advice. Cheers.
One tip to add, I think, is to focus on physical form from the beginning. I'm watching a lot of you tube vids on running properly.
Where did gou get that shirt?
Got it at a Nike outlet a few years back. I also got the running sucks shirt as well.
#5 is the hardest for me. I get up at 4:30 everyday to go run so no one sees me.
Good tips!
When you are transitioning from walking to jogging, think in terms of a short step shuffle that minimizes impact. Look up chi running. Avoiding injuries should be a big priority. When something is hurting, stop running and start walking and see if it clears up. Keep your heart rate relatively low, even if it means mixing in a fair amount of walking. Look up MAF heart rate training.
amen!
TexasCountryLiving thank you for the chi running it was exactly what I was looking for.. thank you!
Friendly runner here 👋🏼 Hi! I wave at everyone.
Thanks be sure to subscribe as well. Have a great day
I got bruises on my upper tigh and my leg muscle join hurt for days. So is it okay to just walking after recovery?
Yes walking would be great also I'd suggest icing your joints after a run to reduce inflammation. Your body is getting used to the activity so take it slowly and build up. If you'd like to I'd love if you subscribed to my channel I have many other tips, a weight loss series, running videos and other fitness related vids ok my channel. Happy running to ya!

I'm trying to run so I can join a track team. Every time I run my sides hurt so bad and my throat feels like its jumping out of my throat. Any tips for that??
Honestly you just gotta slow down and work on your aerobic base. That and work on your breathing.
Im 15 5’1 202 lbs a freshman trying to get skinny before i talk to girls Atleast and improve myself so i can be fit what do u reccomend
Man I'd say just start talking to them and let your personality shine through. It's almost the same thought process some runners have when wanting to join a running group. They want to get faster before joining. Just do it.
In terms of fitness. Definitely work on your diet first maybe try cutting out soda or chips or even both. See what they does and then like I said in the video start off slow on you running journey. Walk before jog and jog before run. Good luck

Keep ur shirts on. Thanks for all the obvious tips.
I think I said take your shirts off in the vid 😉 thanks for watching
I'm a 250 lb weightlifter and starting to run again to improve my breathing and to try to lose about 40 lbs of excess body fat. I used to be a very good runner in my teens and early-20s and then again in my early-40s, but I can only run an 11:30 mile now (max) and can't run 2 miles yet at even 12:30-per-mile pace. I've started running after long layoffs many times over the years but this is the first time starting again at such a heavy weight. I found doing it every-other-day instead of every day helps as well as biking and hiking up hills for cross training on off days as it allows my joints and soft tissues to rest between runs. I also have always mixed sprint running days into my weekly runs over the decades where I only run short sprint repeats instead of distance. It really wakes up the leg muscles and provides much more range of motion than the slow jogging that is required when beginning a running program. It's a running-specific form of strength training. I also think it's wise to limit downhill running when overweight for the first few months.
Nice tips. How tall are ya? Love me some bodybuilding/powerlifting I do alot of it myself. I'll be running the Seattle rock n roll half marathon this weekend and have alot of other running vids where I run the 5k distance all the way up to a 50 mile ultra. Subscribe if you'd like to follow along.
@@GokuRunner I'm 6'1", size 12 shoe, wear size 36" pants.....I look like a linebacker at 250lbs but I'm pretty skinny and lanky at 190. I just feel like crap when I get over 240lbs even though I'm very strong (can seated military press 55lb dumbbells 15 times, incline bench 335x8, 250lbx20 cable triceps pushdowns, etc) since my cardio is awful due to my heart and lungs trying to feed 1/8th of a ton of mass. I can rip through an intense 45-minute full-body weight workout with my pulse averaging just 130 beats per minute, but my pulse hits 168-180 after a 1-mile run at 11-minute mile pace. My testing heart rate is 52 beats per minute, which indicates moderate-to-good cardio fitness.
@@bigwill4978 Good for you. I ran a 10:41 mile on the track the other day (99% max effort) at 250lbs and I used to easily run 6-minute miles when I was 189lbs a few years ago and a lot weaker. I couldn't military press 55-lb dumbbells even once at 189 but at 250 I can do 15 reps. The trade-off is 61 more pounds of bodyweight, poor running ability, lower daily energy levels, decreased tolerance of hot weather, etc.
SUBBING CAUSE GOKU RUNNER! I mean cmooon. Keep it up bro!

M fat af, need to lose some.. Ty for the tips
You can do it. I'll be running the habanero hundred next weekend just doing the 30k so maybe that might motivate ya when you see the vid. If you'd like to subscribe you'll be notified of when I upload a vid. Let's get this done.
Just found your channel and wanted to thank you!
I’ve always been a big guy with judo, wrestling and rugby in my background. Partially tore my right ACL, MCL and partially damaged my PCL in 2012 (all in the one accident!). Ended up losing lots of muscle and put on a severe amount of fat. After surgery, I was able to lose 44kg and was getting back into what I loved.
However in 2018 I suffered a full ACL tear in the same leg and had to have quite an extensive surgery as I blew out lots of meniscus too.
I’d finally gotten to the point where I had given up but have found a new love of walking/jogging. Put on 30kg this time but have successfully lost and kept off 20kg of it.
I look forward to running and your video has definitely assured me that it is possible to make it happen.
Thank you
Respect from Australia!
Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work on your fitness journey!
What about running with cleats. And pads. And a lacrosse stick
I've never run in clealts/pads/lacrosse stick but the principle is the same where you would want a forefoot strike landing under your hips although you shoes might make it difficult.
@@GokuRunner thanks
My biggest advise I tell every runner that's beginning it's not to run at anybody else's pace example when you're running in the a track and you have another runner go by you and beginning runners tend to feel like they have to keep up and all that's going to do is get you tired faster and quit and it will disencourage you for future runs so remember the only person you need to compete with is yourself one last tip don't live to eat eat to live hence eat smart
Yup great advice. I have to remind myself of that at every race.
Thank you. The last tip was especially helpful to hear.
No problemo Gregory. Thanks for subbing.
Try a bit of Yoga before running and if possible after. The Yoga warms me up and it helped me a lot cause one of the biggest mistakes was not warming up properly and running.
Love me some yoga. I just spend 140 bucks on some yoga passes right before the covid craziness. Hopefully they honor them as they were only good for 3 months.

I really do need to do a standard intro so I don't have to keep adding new clips to it with each vid. LOL THanks!
Why am I getting shin splints and how can I avoid/prevent them??
I believe shin splits are mainly due to form issues. Heelstriking was a big issue for me early on and my shins hurt all the time. Changed up my form to land underneath me and more midfoot to forefoot striking and bam no more shin splints. May not work for you but I did for me. Try running barefoot and see how your shins feel. Many shoes have a big drop which insures you are running with a heel strike. Hope you figure it out. Check out some of my other vids and subscribe if you'd like

I'm 5'4 use to weight 115. 10 years later having sleep apnea I am now at 196.

According to a smart scale my ideal weight should be at 140. I want the 5 finger shoes to run at a grass park or high school track.
I have sleep apnea too. Sucks and I hate it. Running will help bring your weight down but diet is very important too.

@@GokuRunner I already subscribed. Ty.
2 minutes into my run and my shin muscles are so tight I can't continue. I take a 2-minute break then I'm ready to go again- 6 rounds. I've been doing a walk run interval training for 5 weeks but the shin issue is stopping my progress. Any suggestions?
You might be heel striking due to your footwear. I'd suggest to try running barefoot on a soft surface and see if that causes the tightness to go away if so you may want to look into shoes with less of a heel to toe drop.
You need to properly stretch your ankle, feet, shin, and hip because tightness anywhere in that structure can go all the way down. I suggest a very thorough stretching routine or just pick up yoga which I recommend more. It could also be compartment syndrome which is very common. Google ways to deal with that. Also get the shoes like he is suggesting, it could be that simple, but everything else I suggested is still essential for longevity and true health. Good luck
Thanks for the advice guys! Dr. said it's a mild case of compartment syndrome recommended some stretching to try. I also did video of myself and to my amazement I was heal striking. I would have argued that I wasn't but video doesn't lie. Progress is stagnant but I'm still at it. Hope this gets easier 🤔😁
I've been running since last 3 months now and quite well used with the long miles now at the beginning I started it easier likely 30 minutes of easy running would cover up 2km everyday then I turned over myself wisely with extra distant.. now I would easily drive off myself till 19km never thought I would come that far... yeah I really feel satisfied and very energtic myself after long miles running but only thing is how can I get rid of toe nail blistering? Is that gonna affect it all?
Hey bro great video! Im just getting into running what can I do about legs itching when I run?
Since you are relatively new to running its probably caused by the increased blood flow to your muscles. In time your body will get used to it and it will go away. Keep at it.
Instant sub just for the name lol
Lol thanks for the sub.
Hi i am 12 yo and what i need help with is loosening my arms when i run because i always force my arms to swing and that makes me get tired faster so i think you should make a video on how to loosen your arms when you run and i am overweight because i am 168 pounds so please make a video on that
I'm not really sure what you mean. Are you talking about your arm swing? Honestly if you are getting too tired fast. You need to slow down. Like I said in the vid walk before you jog and jog before you run. Build up your aerobic base slowly and you'll be better off for it in the long run.

Goku Runner just subscribed. Do you think it is good to try running every single day or should I allow for recovery days? I’m currently doing about five days a week.
Honestly I'd say mix in alot of slower runs to build up aerobic base. You may think it's too slow but it'll help you run faster long term. Only run hard 1x or 2x a week. Most runs should be super easy pace where you can easily hold a conversation without stopping to breathe.
You definitely look like a runner
Hey thanks! I've had so many weird comments whenever I tell someone I run.
@@GokuRunner probably people projecting their own insecurities on you, lol
does running not help with weight loss? i want to lose weight
Yes it does but of course diet will be key. Many runners tend to overeat after a run thinking they deserve a reward. You do deserve a reward but you can't outrun a bad diet.

Would you reccomend running for 6.4 and over 350 weight?
6.4 miles or 6.4 mph on treadmill? Regardless the most important thing is to listen to your body and build up slowly with correct form. Going from 0 to 6.4 will take a good build up. Train smart my friend.
Sorry man, im not english. 6.4 height i mean. Im a big guy and wanna try running but im afraid ill do more damage to my bones than good
@@pimeto same advice. I'd suggest the couch to 5k app c25k. Starts you off walking and then eventually running. Your running pace is all about effort not speed. Just remember you're going for endurance so slow and easy for distance will get you to where you want to be. Listen to your body, get the correct shoes, and clothing. You should be good to go. As a preface I'd have to also say make sure to check with your physician to see if you're OK to start a program. For me as well I love strength training check out my latest Goku Runner Talks Tuesday where I suggested the 3 weight lifting exercises all runners should be doing. Subscribe if you haven't I just posted a 5k I did this morning. Cheers man. Happy running.

Start of walking and diet. As you lose weight it'll become easier for you. All my advice still works the same. Good luck on your journey. Subscribe if you'd like.

Nice. Im in the middle of 30 days of jump roping maybe you can take that up. They say 10 minutes of jump rope is equivalent to 30 minute's of running.
@@GokuRunner hmm.... Might try that

You look like a runner...
When people ask me what I do for working out I tell them I run because I consider myself a runner before anything else. They are shocked! Thanks. I was thinking of doing a video of how runners have body types of all shapes and sizes. Check out some of my other vids and subscribe if youd like
@@GokuRunner I did subscribe and thank you for your videos. It helps those of us who also don't have the stereotypical "runner's body" feel more confident about running. It is something I have always enjoyed doing.
great tips!

My weight is 99.8 kg and height is 6"0 feet....Which Asics shoe will be good for me amongst Gel Kayano,Gel Nimbus,Gel Cumulus?
I'd suggest you getting fitted at a running store and then purchasing there. If you buy one and don't like it they will let you exchange it for the other within a certain time period or mileage number. That being said I used to love my ASICS Kayanos I did a lot of running in them. Check out some of my other videos where I do 5ks all the way up to the ultra distance. Subscribe if you'd like
Thank You.
Anytime. Hope you have started or will start your running journey soon. Check out some of my other videos, I recently tested my mile at 230 lbs to see what I could do. Subscribe if you'd like. Happy running.
