How the FUCK do I get better at running?

How the FUCK do I get better at running?

I started a month ago, I can run 4 miles without stopping now

But my 1.5 miles is still fucking 13 minutes...

I've been doing HIIT and long distance ( for me)

Why is my 1.5 mile still so shit?

>started a month ago

Here's your answer.

that's still fucking terrible you retard. That's like a day 1 time

The best way to get faster over a middle distance is quarter mile repeats on a track. You should be able to do 10x quarters at 1:50 or so with an eighth mile recovery between each quarter. Key is to do each lap at around the same speed and then really push the last few.

Alternatively, you could do the Lydiard method, which is to run as many slow miles as possible each week, working up to 70+.

SOMEBODY HELP ME

I have a 1.5 mile test in a month

amphetamines

Not all runners are equal. Perhaps you are better at long distance than sprints. Endurance over speed, etc

Run EVERYDAY

Add another mile each time

Stop going to exhaustion. Stop getting anywhere close. Go for a walk. Run if/when you feel like it. Repeat. Stop running as soon as it feels like work. Before, if possible.

That'd be great advice for someone looking to be a little baby bitch the rest of their lives

I really dont know, but it might have something to do with you running less than two months until now. Give it time you god damn retard.

Well that's just dumb, max increase per week on mileage should be 10% if someone wants to safely increase their distances.

>safely

Pussy

Bruh, ITBS will fuck you up, I've been there.

I don't hAVe time!!!!!!?

Irritable Bowel Syndrome?

Or anyone looking for athleticism and enjoyment in their running.

It's like you don't understand anything about physiological adaptation and think that hurting yourself is not only the best, but the only way to fitness.

It's like you've never heard of ASR. Is it the 1990s again?

Should have started earlier then. I swaer to god anime watching tards who think you can achieve anything by trying really hard for a month really ruin fitness.

I'll prove you wrong

Heavy leg routine. Squats, deadlifts, jump roping. I've found jump ropes super helpful. Focus on getting a better HIIT for 2-3 weeks then work on distance. Carbload a few hours before workouts, lots of water, creatine, melatonin and a full multivitamin will help pretty well. Take BCAA's in the morning as well, they super charge your muscles. Beta alanine is good to, read up on it. Work on keeping your head up (you'll burn out immediately if you don't) and good form. Breathing is super important, during your rest time hold your breath on a full inhale for 3-5 seconds. Do that 3 times, it gets all the carbon dioxide out of your body. Watch your salt and get lots of water. I used to weigh 230, ran a 11 minute mile from good technique and a solid training regiment. A good one for you is to sprint up a hill, walk back down it. Do that over and over and over. Once you can't? Do it more and more. Don't ever quit when it comes to HIIT's.

You wont. Think about it. your body doesnt change drastically. Even if you ran evereyday, as far and as fast as you could for one month you would just ruin your knees.

Where did he say he was hurting? He wants to run faster. You don't do that by walking, you do that by pushing yourself a little bit each time you run.

"I can run four miles without stopping."

I.e. he has to stop after that.

Stop being a retard. You don't know what constitutes adequate stimulus.

You can make progress dude. Time your miles and rest time and just chut off on the time as much as you can every time. Listen to: Also, lots of broccoli and melatonin will help with testosterone.
Make sure to stretch after running.
Here is a good one: theayurveda.org/yoga/yogasana-to-relieve-nerve-tension-pigeon-pose/
Make sure to stretch every single muscle in your leg after running. Like stretch your calves for a solid minute, increasing intensity.

It really depends on the type of athlete you are and also your body type.

Not really. Autoregulation sets up training that suits your physiology automatically.

You probably aren't pushing yourself hard enough on the 1.5

If you can run 4 miles without stopping then you should definitely be able to run faster than a 13 minute 1.5 miles

Running is like 80% mental and 20% physical. You just have to run at a harder pace for longer than you think you can.

Sigh.. Fair enough.

>I started a month ago
There's your problem: No patience.

Come back in TWO MORE MONTHS and tell us you're not making more progress.
>you won't unless you're fucking up

A question for op: do you own weighted vests?

u started a month ago kiddo what you expect. Try jogging more when preschools out?

My best time at 1.5 miles was 11:30ish as a supreme lanklet in highschool

13 ain't that bad if you have a fair bit of muscle

13 minutes is terrible
