Cardio bros report!

The days half over, how's your cardio going? I finally ran my 3 Mile loop without walking, the last mile is uphill... Very rough. The cardio is yard work

    Nice job man, finished a longish run this morning as it’s getting too hot midday to run. Waking up and running within 15-20 minutes takes some effort.

      Kick ass. Im jelly of your runs ascent. 300ft? I thought my hill was rough, do you have one massive hill or multiple?

        2 long hills (100 ft each) and 2 short hills (40-50ft each). Hard to find places that are super flat here, and its a pain when I am trying to keep heart rate down for long runs. I do think they are making me faster, beat my previous 10k pr by 10 minutes.

          Your vo2 max is also probably improving from the mini hiit sessions with those hills

            Its honestly been stuck at around 45, but I only start running 3 months ago, with a break in between for vacation. Think most of that is because I’m a little overweight for my height, and need to cut 20lb of fat at 5’10 180lb. How’s your VO2 max?

              Op here. According to Garmin my vo2 is also 45. And I also need to lose 20 lbs. Interesting...

              Garmin. The app is great

        That's sub 18:00 5k territory. Only spooky skeletons lurk past that point.

          This tbh. Unless you are a professional there is no need to go sub 18 tbh. Makes you obsess about rooning and just a boring person with a shit body.

    why are you gays so slow? any male under the age of 30 should be able to run 8 min pace per mile

      I can do 5km just under 7 minute miles but I stil feel slow. This is high school JV-tier running. A good pace for a fit adult or average high school varsity runner is 6 minutes pace, 5 minutes pace for a trained endurance athlete(still not fast enough to go pro)

        Just started boxing 3x a week and can run a 5k in around 30 minutes. How long will it take if I run the other 4 days a week to reach sub 8 minute miles?

          impossible to say.running is extremely talent based. However 8 min mile pace for 5km is a very achievable pace with consistency

            Endurance running is just grinding more miles

              grinding miles doesn't break 14, 29, 1:05, 2:15 although sure you have to log miles to hit those times. Grinding will pay off most in the marathon where you can make up for lack of natural ability with commitment but you won't be setting any records. Keep in mind even a signle sub5 mile is out of reach for some healthy young men even with perfect training and discipline,and for many even if it's achievable it will take many years of dedication. Other people can do that in their early teens with half-assed training.

                I have always equated 5:00 mile with 1/2/3/4 in the gym. It’s a mark that is easily attainable within a year of serious training for people with great genetics even with subpar training, but with good training anyone can attain it in a few years of dedicated and consistent effort.

          what's your sched look like with the gym included with boxing and running? leaving enough time to recover? ( I just started boxing too, and I get wiped doing the gym after it)

        5 minute pace for 5k is excellent, high schoolers running slower than that in races generally qualify for their state championships. Even pros only run 5:00 pace or faster in workouts.

    What app is that zoomer with a mulatto perm? I do rucks 3× a week on 15° incline then just walk on incline for 60 mins on days I don't ruck. Running is for cowards.

    I'm a recreational BJJ guy and I'm looking add some sprints to my workouts. A few questions:

    Are 400m and 800m good distances for benchmarking, since they seem to be the sort of strength-endurance that's useful for my sport?
    What are some benchmarks to short for in these distances?
    As someone whose cardio has just been bjj, judo, and the exercise bike - how do I work up to good times on the 400m and 800m?
