    One of the greatest benefits to the treadmill is that it has low impact. Consequently it gives your legs time for recovery from the road.
  • What I found that helps with staying on the treadmill physically is a basic breathing technique. I make sure to take a deep breath at the start, and then shallow-quick breaths in between. After I start to get a little tired, I take a deep breath again. I can't explain it perfectly but usually when you take a deep breath, you will find that sometimes- you can inhale completely- but sometimes you won't be able to. At times you fully inhale it boosts your indurance, and as you practice, it will allow you to stay at longer durations. I'm not sure if it works for everyone, but I find it really helps for longer runs.
  • Sounds very sensible - you do not need to follow exactly what is suggested but the thought behind this was great - break it up and build gradually. Thanks!!!
  • Thanks for the advice and information. I just cut 2 minutes and 12 seconds off my 5K time. I think my posture is much better, and my calves don't cramp as much on longer training runs.

    I'm so glad I found you guys. You're so creative and definitely help keep the running game interesting. I really wish you guys had a group in Los Angeles, but if you ever decide to expand down here I would love to volunteer for such a positive and encouraging group.

    Great tips......as we've come to expect 👏👏. I've run 20kms on the tready in a session & find it to be great brain training for observing ones thinking as we fatigue. I've also used it to progressively push myself to a 19 minute 5km @ age 64. I do much of what you advise Nate but will do more. Thanks heaps 👍

    Brilliant video, thanks a lot! Recently been forced to run more in the gym than outdoors but this made me feel a lot happier about it!

  • @PoetWithPace
    I used to hate the thought of using a treadmill...until i had a day that was too icy to run on the road for a long run and just went for it and completed 2.5 hours and have loved all subsequent runs on there.

    Tell you what Nate, I dropped in here because I'm 55, have lost 83 lbs jogging on the treadmill with outdoor walking mixed in and considering I'm still 55lbs overweight and insist on reaching my target weight of 199lbs, I'd like to suggest you might do a video that includes us big folks. I put books on tape on the laptop and listen, I have 300+ songs on my playlist, I run in the electric WRRRRRRRRR of my #2 adjustable-fans for deeper thoughts and meditative running. Some folks like the interactive laptop video of running outside for a distraction. I jog between 3mph- 4mph for up to 2 hrs on my long runs. . the speeds you mention are far out of reach as yet. I inspire myself with videos from you and other real runners and hope to slim down to the ''Clydesdale" class of distance runner plodding along on the treadmill before I do any road training in order to save my knees and lower back. Please know that you inspire me and I hope to be out there on the road someday as well. Thanks.

    Keep up the great treadmill workouts they come in handy in Las Vegas running when its 105 outside aint gonna happen. Thanks for the content

    I am new to workout and gyms, when I go on the treadmill, I get bored to death, I get so bored that 15 minutes feel like 15 hours. I wonder if this is normal, or that I just have not learned to be patient. Also I get very irritated. I think I don't like not occupying my mind with something.
  • @Shon9tilR
    I get tired quick. After 3minutes I have to rest 🙄
  • @97lumberjack
    The thought of running 5 minutes at 8% grade makes me want to cry. :-0 Spoken like a true flatlander from NE Texas. My upcoming half marathon has a few long steady hills and I want to OWN them. I'll definitely be incorporating this workout into my repertoire of dreadmill sessions.
  • Can you please write this out for us - the graphics were moving so fast I couldnt screenshot all the instructions .. once again you were brilliant to watch/listen too 🤩
  • @revjoespivey
    Great video.. what about do a video where you do this full workout and we can watch while we run on the treadmill? Maybe some music in the background? How many would like to see this?
