Week 2: Run a marathon each day but remember to rest on Wednesday.

Week 3: Do two runs around the earth with 1 minute rest in between.

Ah, yes.. the beginners guide to running, but only if you're already an advanced runner 😂

This is a GREAT plan to get injured in your first week!

The video should be titled “how to quit running in one week” 😂

800 repeats with a ONE minute break on day 5 is wild

800 meter speed work on the first week of running 😭

If you’re new to running and you follow this plan…you’ll need a physio. Feel free to get in touch 👍🏼

People are lucky to jog for 2 minutes when they first begin, never mind 15-20 😆👍🏻

WOULD NOT ADVISE FOR BEGINNERS. True beginners would need to start with a run/walk series (15 minutes total aerobic work, run 1 minute walk 2 minutes for 5 sets for example.) Definitely no repeats in the first week and no 45 minute long run. Even with high school or collegiate athletes just getting back this would be problematic. Health and sustainability matters if you want consistency.

Depends on what you are considering a begginer but to emd the week with a 45 min jog is A LOTT

Anyone who's done a couch to 5k knows that the first few times you run, you get winded after 2 minutes It took me several months to get to 40 minutes, and I'm still struggling to maintain it If you actually want to start running, use a couch to 5k app and go as slow as you need

This works if you're remotely athletic but for the majority of people... Nah. You severely underestimate how out of shape the normal person is.

HAHAHA bro you're gonna kill beginners with this plan

Build aerobic base for 3 months. Then you can progressively start with speed work. No wonder people get injured so often.

don’t follow this plan, it’s not beginner friendly whatsoever. if you struggle to run for a mile, “run-walking”, or running, (at a comfortable pace), for a couple minutes then walk for another few minutes can be a more beginner friendly approach to start running. also, instead of “speed work” or a long run, try to incorporate other variations of aerobic training such as jump-rope, rowing, HIIT, and assault biking to avoid physical and mental fatigue.

Do not follow this plan if you are a true beginner. I’ve been running since I was grade school (now in my 3rd year of college)…whenever I start back up running after taking a break for awhile, I’ll oftentimes only do one or two runs for the first week and then see how my body feels. The only thing he got right is to not worry about how far you can go or your pace when getting started. Just do what feels comfortable (as comfortable as it can be) and go from there

I wish is could get an aerobic base in 3 day😂😂I’ll tell my coach that it only takes 3 days and not the two months that he’s got on my plan😂😂😂😂😂

Awful plan for a newbie.

Here I am struggling to run for a whole 5 minutes

My definition of beginner was updated...

"Beginner" "800 m repeats" "Run for 45 minutes"

"Want to get into running as a beginner? Day 1, run." 😂😂😂

what is up with running content creators giving absolutely trash advice to beginners. first it was matt choi, now it's this guy

the way my jaw dropped after day 4. wtf is this????

This is terrible advice for a beginner. No beginner should be doing speed work. Asking for an injury

I couldn't have done that when I was a couch potato. I couldn't even run more than a minute without feeling like I'm gonna die. I used C25K, and in the first week I would run for 1 minute and rest for 2 minutes, even that was very difficult but that's how I built the endurance and strength to run 20 minutes

Nice flex bro 😂 I questioned it at first, and then I actually laughed out loud when you mentioned speed work on the first week. That's ridiculous...

When someone not really expert said like they're an expert-experienced runner

This is not for beginners. This a workout for a freshman in high-school who is more active than the average joe

As a beginner. There is no way you just run 10-15 mins

Bro…when I first started running, just a minute and a half interval runs were hard to do. Some people have to start from the ground up. I can now run a 5k with 24:22 as my PB. Looking now to shave that time and start training for 10K!

My basic plan (HS intermediate XCTF): Monday: Long (45-60 minutes) Tuesday: Workout (speed, repeats, etc.) Wednesday: Recovery (30min jog/off) Thursday: Long Friday: Workout Saturday: Recovery Sunday: off I’m starting to experiment with this more, this is what our XC coach generally has us do. More speed based during track obviously.

Wanna get into running but don’t know where to start? Don’t start on social media 😂

15-20 minutes jog on day 1? that's one reason most beginners run few times and then quit. run-walk intervals should be the starting point

I feel like the 800 repeats are a little ambitious for a beginner runner😂

As a runner, I do NOT recommend this at all for your first week of getting into running

How to get runners knee in a week for beginners…

No please don’t be doing speed work your first week of running, you want to take the first 8 weeks to build that aerobic base, 3 days is not enough. First 8 weeks stay in your zone 2-3 HR zones (run slow be able to talk while running) even walk if it’s getting to high. Once you can consistently hold long runs in those zones then you can start doing your speed work. If you start overreaching early you’ll duck up your whole aerobic base system

Common 800-meter repeats your first week running! Most people when first getting into running can only run for 30 seconds to a minute before they feel like they are going to die. 30 seconds to 1 min then walk for two min then repeat for 20min total. Do this three times in the first week. then over time slowly increase the time you can run and lessen the walk brakes.

Bro, people who don’t run at all aren’t running for 45 minutes straight by the end of the week. That’s just not happening.

Is this a joke? You said BEGINNER. 45min on Day 6?!🤣🤣🤣

Running 5 days a week as a beginner is nuts. Also: 5x800m repeats is crazy in your first week of running. Follow this plan if you want to get injured quickly and put off running forever.

best way to start running for beginners from experience is just to 30min almost everyday. Go as slow as you want, run walk, whatever, but complete 30min. no need to think about distance or speed. Build the base first. Slowly you’ll be able to run for 30min, and over time your speed will increase. Then you can start thinking about adding a long run, or start training according to pace. But it’s not necessary. Just run consistently is more than enough for most people.

This is a horrendous plan for “beginners” 😂😭

Beginner = you run marathons on a Tuesday

First time I started getting into running, I was doing great and building my endurance but by the second or third week I really screwed up my knee and it took a couple months to heal fully. That’s when I learned that you can’t just go from not running to running almost everyday 🥲 so I’ve been told to start 1-2 times a week and ease into it. 🤷🏽‍♀️

This dude made me feel I could break both Bolt's and Kipchoge's world record in 3-4 weeks.

‘Go for a 15-20 minute jog.’ Me who can’t even run for 5 minutes: 😃

Thats not for beginner. If want to start running start walking for a couple of months. Then run and walk for sone minutes. After a couple of months start running only.

These are great workouts, but not for beginners though. I’d say the best thing to do ( if you haven’t been doing physical activities for a few months ) is to first start with going for walks , after a week or 2 of walks then start with 10 - 20 minute runs ( with rest breaks ) , then after you do that in a week or 2 you increase the time and slowly build up to whatever amount you feel like doing .

im on day 3 now! wish me luck

it was all right up until day 5 😂

Realistic Beginner Running routine: Day 1-10: Start with 5 mins runs, gradually building upto 10-12 mims if you can. Stretch your muscles and exercise your knee joints etc everyday before running. Rest once every 3-4 days as it suits you. If you grasp for breath.. fine, just walk for 2-3 mins, then resume running again. That's fine! Day 10-20: Time to correct your form. make sure you don't land on heels. Land flat on your feet, else you will develop knee pain in your 50s. Run slow. Gradually build upto 20 mins if you can, else 10-15 mins is also okay. Most important is to put on your shoes and hit the track and run for at least 5 mins everyday. After 30 days: Target 30 mins. Forget about speed in 1st month, just focus on consistency. Focus on speed on 2-3 rd month. Even slow running for 30 mins everyday will change your life. Cheers! 😊

Just run 20 minutes a day for 3 to 5 days per week, then do it again for 2 more weeks. Then do these drills and increase your time to 30 minutes slowly

Wheres the stretching and warm ups

I'll probably run 5mins then walk for 10mins

Finally a routine that gets to the point, thank you tons!

I’m a fan of mileage. It’s very “go at your own pace”. I feel like if someone is not acclimated to running yet, have a 1-2 mile goal and running part of it in intervals intermixed with walking is a great way to start off. A lot of people will be able to jog a mile without walking by the end of the week, and it makes what seems like a daunting task really approachable.

This is definitely not for beginners. All these know it alls don’t know what they talking about. This is for advanced people. A beginner can not do 4 sets of 800 meter runs/sprints. That’s literally a half a mile 4 times for a beginner…

As someone who is 3 weeks into an actual running plan for beginners. This plan isn't beginner friendly at all. After day 2 of this plan, I would be sore af and unlikely to continue this plan. This plan comes off like it was made by someone who has been running for so long that they have forgotten what beginners are reasonably, and consistently capable of when they begin running.

Word!!! The speedwork and 45min runs are things you see on my cross country team, not too sure about the average adult or teen or whoever.

Me who thought i was the only one who finds this tol hard and then proceeds tor ead comments😢

What is this plan bro. Nobody starting out can run for 45 minutes after 5 days.

Don’t follow this plan unless you want to get yourself injured. This is way too much load and stress on the bones and other structures for a beginner. Walk and run program is the best with strength training 2 a week. Also - gate analysis is a must for any runner to make sure they can run safely and injury free.

800 repeats the first week is wild 💀💀

LOL WHAT most of my friends who don't run cant even finish 2 minutes of running (and thats like 8-9 km/h)

Is this satire? For real beginners, try the couch to 5K plan, go slow almost walking, and don't be afraid to repeat weeks....

You’ve inspired me to get into running again! Watching your videos really got me motivated. Keep doing them! Really helps a lot

Thanks for the video! Gonna start today 😊

How to become a pro runner in one week :

As a beginner I walk 2 mins then 1 min jog, for 3 rounds then 1:30 min walk then 1:30 min jog for another 3 rounds then decrease the walking min til 1 minute and the jog minute reaches 2 minutes.

Love your videos but this isn’t very good advice for beginners. This much running for a beginner can cause an injury, especially 800m repeats. A beginner should probably just stick to jogging only for a few weeks before they start 800m repeats

I felt crazy watching this at first and then I read the comments. This is for someone who used to run a lot and is getting back into it

Thanks man . Needed that

😂💀 This is my end goal to be able to run that long without walking. I’ve been building my endurance this last month and still can maybe only run 4 minutes and I’m dead. Thats ok though… still walking and moving my body.

Bro will make people quit in the week 1

You should see my face when I saw the 45min run on The 6th day 🤣

I like your channel so much! It helps inspire me to start running again. I've got a bad back so I gotta be extra careful, but running is my way of destressing.

Definitely don't run every day starting out. Start out with 2 or 3 runs a week. Run slow and walk when you're heart rate gets high. Try to aim for zone 2 heart rate.

Me doing this yesterday but in Avondale I got chased by two dogs lmao

This is a solid routine for a cross country runner who is a month or two into training

Thank you so much for this I did a 20 min run today and I feel pretty good 😊

NEVER DO REPEATS AS A BEGINNERS. ypur main focus going from, lets say couch to 5k, is building endurance-not speed. Speed work comes after the ability to run At least a 5k non stop. You go from “couch to intervals” in 3 days your gonna rip something. The best thing to do is ignore influencers terrible advice and go online and find a planing plan catered to your ability level.

Thank you I wrote this down in order it’s gonna help a lot thanks!

Love this, thankyou.

Good schedule plan for intermediate runners as well

i cant run for 3 minutes straight how ami supoosed to run for 15

Thanks for this! I wanna start up running again but wasn’t sure how to start. Now I do!😁

Couch to 5K - an eight week programme of three runs a week plus some extra other exercise you build in, which goes from run 1 minute - walk 2 - repeat repeat etc in week one, to running a 30m 5k in week 8. I loved it - from a very inactive start (lots of walking everywhere but little other exercise) it was a proper challenge each week - tough but achievable.

Thanks so much for this!!

When I started I ran 3 times a week for 30 minutes and I got shin splints, I couldn't run for a month! I would suggest you to start walking/running at a slow pace and progresse gradually, especially if you go from couch to running.. Now I run 40-50 minutes without any problem but it took me 3-4 months of regular runs.

Beginners Week 1 -- 5-10min walk-jog Week 2 -- Same Week 3 -- 20 min slow jogs then follow this routine

BRO This is beginner for someone who is already incredibly active but is new to RUNNING. This is not beginner for people who are complete beginners. Please specify!

I started 15-20 mins jog, walk for the first 2 weeks. And it was great and all but After that I start to stayed home and recover drinking beer.

Definitely do not do this

This is fine if you're an 18 year old who is in decent shape but just doesn't jog. This is horrendous if you are anything else.

lol what you just outlined takes months to truly accomplish! There's no rush in this, your body isn't going anywhere Honestly, most people who are completely new probably won't be able to go more than 5mins in their first week (I know I couldn't) But as long as you don't stop, you gradually begin to increase the duration until you reach a level where you hit your second wind (for me, thats around the 30 - 35minute mark) Give yourself time people, its no competition! It took me about 9-months to hit 30mins on a threadmill (jogging at 8km/h) and about a year to do so on the ground -- yeah, yeah I know it's weird, for some reason running on the ground isn't quite the same as running on a threadmill lol, but you get similar results so it's no biggie. If you rush things, your ankles won't be very happy with you long-term. Speaking from experience. Nowadays, I consistently do 30 - 40mins (4km - 5.4km) Monday's - Friday's. I'm about 2-years in. Let's go people!

How to get into running for people who are already athletic should be the title of this video

The perfect video...to show that fitness influencers truly have no idea what it's like to be a regular person.
