For this episode, we try a slightly different formula; we will answer various questions related to running.
How do we love to run?
- The important thing in life is to be active;
- Running has benefits, but many other physical activities can be used as well;
- The ideal is to create the habit of running and for that, we need 3 components:
- A signal that triggers the habit;
- The behaviour;
- An award.
- You can compensate with a extrinsic reward, but the ideal is that the reward becomes intrinsic.
33:11 Can you get addicted to running?
- It's possible, but it's not very addictive.
36:00 I get tired when I run, why?
- First thing to try: shorter and less intense training;
- Second thing to try: alternate walking and running.
38:15 I'm out of breath when I run, how can I be less?
- There aren't a lot of options other than slowing down the pace or improving sound. VO2 max.
41:21 Even if you become very good at running, you will still be out of breath.
- It depends. If you have one VAM very high, it is possible that you are not really out of breath while running.
43:40 How not to have side stitches?
- We don't really know where the side stitches come from. What we know is that sports that generate a lot of impact and a lot of shortness of breath cause more of this type of inconvenience;
- In general, the longer you run, the less likely you are to suffer side stitches.
