Running Training For Beginner

Every beginner in running training should always set his own schedule based on the new kind of lifestyle he wants to achieve. Setting your own running schedule will surely kick your habit of lazing around to simply running and sweating it out on the road tracks.


Setting A Schedule

Set a schedule most convenient to you and at a time when you do not feel too tired or too sleepy to run. Or you might just be turned off so fast about running. Most of the runners who easily find themselves shying away from running just as soon as they have started are those who started on running training too fast, without listening to what their body is telling them. And they end up feeling less confident, asking themselves why the others can do it and they cannot.

Pull You Off That Comfort Zone

If you are a beginner runner, you should look for a running training program that will first pull you out of that comfort zone. Start with a less straining program such as mere walking and jogging. The ultimate goal here is to get a potato couch off his TV and set him running into the tracks. And when he has already developed that running spirit in him can he step up into a higher level of running.

Losing Your Patience Is Normal

Yes, it is normal to lose your patience, don't worry. It happens to anyone and most of the time when it happens, the runner is tempted to do the training exercises so much to finish fast. However, it is crucial to realize the value of not doing more than what you really can. Even if you think you can run more than the distance you are already running, always be sensitive to your body signals. Do not mind the pressures of continuing especially if they will pose some threats to your health.

Three Times A Week  For Every Run

Every running session should have 20 or 30 minutes, for three times in every week, which is just like doing moderate exercising to maximize physical fitness. This particular type of program is guaranteed to make people fit so make sure that you religiously follow this schedule for three days all throughout the week. And the thing here is, since it is done every other day, there is time allowed to lie low and rest for a day. Therefore, the runner is able to rest and recover much faster.

Focus on Increasing Your Running Time And Distance 

Increasing the distance you run as well as how much time you spent for that particular distance is far more important than running faster. To run fast, you also have to put a considerable amount of thought on first, making your bones stronger and your body much fitter.

You may do this program by first measuring the time you run or the distance you run. If you are the type of person who gets easily confused, then you might as well choose the one that is much easier for you to follow. Use a stopwatch or any kind of watch or better yet, a timer to measure the actual time you have run. For the distance, you may measure it by simply doing some estimating. You really do not need the exact figures to measure the distance, anyway. An estimate of the time and distance you have run are enough to determine whether you are improving with your running or not. Doing these things will surely give great contributions to your running training.
