Some Running Advice for Overweight Runners You May Follow
Running is an excellent way to improve your cardio health, boost your immune system and metabolism which will, in turn, help you lose weight. Running builds muscles and endurance, which can help your body process and metabolize calories more efficiently.
Running can help to increase your moods by elevating the hormones that are released as you achieve a level of exercise that causes your body to release endorphins; this state it creates is known as the "runner's high" -- which is very similar to the effects of THC from marijuana.
It can help to relieve pain, make you feel looser all over and rejuvenated. It can boost your moods, loosen joints that have been stiff and sore, and can give you such a sense of euphoria that your mood is elevated for as long as 2 days after a good run.
Getting in shape when you are overweight may need to be taken very slowly and you may find that you have some soreness after a workout. This is typical but it can also keep people from continuing workouts. Pain tends to stop people in their tracks. Otheremedies has some great tips and advice to help you with this.
Advice for Runners Who Are OverweightThese are some really good tips and advice that may apply for any runner, and to those who are heavy in particular.
1)Go see a doctor before you start anything. This is good advice for anyone because weight is not always the best indicator of overall health. Let the doctor know what you're planning on doing and have him check you very thoroughly. Don't do anything until he/she gives you the green light to go out and begin.
2)Invest in the right pair of shoes before you get started and plan on replacing them every 3 - 6 months. The inner sole will begin to break down from excess weight and the pounding of running. You really need to take great care of your feet, your arches, and your ankles. Go to a nice shop where they can fit you appropriately with a shoe that balances your foot. Some people run more to the outside of their feet. They need a shoe that straightens the ankle to align your legs, hips, and spine properly. It really does all start with your shoes. There are also shoes that are designed for heavier runners. When you treat your feet right, your entire body will feel better. Wear the wrong shoes and you'll begin having knee pain, ankle sprains, even back pain. Each stride you take puts an impact on your feet that is equal to as much as 7 times your body weight. If you are 250 pounds, then you are placing as much as 1750 pounds of pressure on your foot each time it hits the pavement. Go spend the money on good shoes. You can replace them as necessary but you can't replace your feet and knee replacement is a lot more expensive than your shoes.
3)Start really slowly. Begin with walking and gradually mix in some short periods of running. The Jeff Galloway system is fantastic because it clearly lays out a plan of action, day by day. You will begin walking. With each day you progress, you'll mix in a few moments of walking with a few moments of running, gradually increasing the time of running until you are primarily running without any walking necessary. This is the easiest and most inspirational way of getting into shape without killing yourself. It's a way of pacing yourself to slowly push yourself without pushing beyond your limits. It's a plan of action, that when adhered to, will yield results. In no time at all, you'll be able to run a 5k without stopping. You'll feel great after you do, and you'll look forward to doing it again. You can clearly see your progress when you use a method like this as well. If you are a results-oriented person, this a great plan that will help you stay on track and keep motivated, even on the days when you just don't feel like you want to go take a run. Most of the time, however, you'll find yourself longing for it.
4)Listen to some music if you are treadmill running, but when you are out in public, don't put anything in your ears that may prevent you from hearing someone near you. This is a dangerous way to go out for a run. You should always be aware of your surroundings, especially if you are female. When possible, run with friends so that you are not putting yourself at risk of mugging or assault. Women are more at risk, but men can also be assaulted and mugged, so leave the wallet and the jewelry at home.
