Running for newbieee =D?
Hello,
well, I'm having a sports competition, and I decided to join in running. Well, I'm really a first timer, and I'd like to ask what can I do to increase my speed, and stamina in 2 months. I joined for fun, but I really would like to train and give it my all as its gonna my senior year joining. I figured jogging, cycling, jumping rope and climbing stairs would be enough. What say you?
I have been running for 8 years now and would recommend for you the following:
I would strengthen the core: calves, quads, hams, back and abdominal (the "six pack" muscles along with the obleks), chest and arms. But when strengthening these muscles, I would focus more on the muscle endurance not the muscle bulk. For more advice for this, I would consult with a personal trainer. For the running part, I would stay flexible as it helps/contributes to your balance (so do the muscles in your core) but also helps prevent some injuries like pulled muscles and shin splints. Also, I would try to make up a schedule where you can run for X amount of days and try to have a long run. I would start off slowly, running about 2-3 miles per run for the first week and increase my mileage per week. Make sure you have the following: a good diet, hydration, sleep, a good sense on how to take care of your body, and sleep. Good Luck!!!
