Im going to run now for the first time in my life
>>77587139Start slow. Mainting proper posture is more important than going super fastKeep your head above your (relaxed) shouldersLook aheadDon't forget to move your arms(at a 90 degree angle)Rock your elbows back as you do soSlightly engage your coreFoot strike doesn't really matter as long as you land your feet right under your center of gravityTry to make it fun and not a punishment for your self-perceived inadequacies
>>77587158shoulders hurt, out of breath in 5 minutes. Fuck this shit, I'll just do cycling
>>77587206>Shoulders hurt running>Intends to cycle unsteadLol.
>>77587230My form while running must be abysmal. And I do cycle sometimes, but never had any bad pain whatsoever
I encourage any children reading this thread to observe a nursing home facility, watching elderly humans live their last days of life.Watch how they cannot walk, cannot stand, they cannot even sit-up in bed because of how weak their abdomen is and how their grip cannot even stay closed if pulling themselves against the bedrailing.You might change your mind about participating in body-strengthening exercises.You'll probably be able to infer why human societies associate "elderly" and "fat" with "slovenly" and "filthy" and a complete physical drain.
>>77587280Just make sure you're set up proper so you don't give yourself ED.
>>77587158Finally some unironic fitness posting
>>77587158>Try to make it fun and not a punishmentThis. Running is like 50% mental, the first 10-20 minutes always suck for me but once I break that mental barrier I get lost in the sauce and can run for much longer. It's all in your head.
