i only run 30 minutes.

i never stretch. it is BORING. i never ever ever got an injury from not stretching. i mean ya sometimes my muscles are tight but you know what? i'm not in a marathon so who cares.

Your lucky you haven't got injured yet. As you get older it might be a different story. I still think you should be stretching but if you really find it boring try this to for tight muscles.

when it gets really cold do you cover your mouth to protect lung burn?

Hell yes because if I don't i'll get really bad headaches. I use this.

basically if you are competing you should be running every day, in the morning. if you can handle at least 3 miles every day you'll be in decent shape for fighting. i'd also mix in some sprints at least twice a week for faster recovery. basically you have to be able to recover in only a minute rest in between rounds so if you're almost back to normal breathing after going full out for 3 minutes ( 5 if your fighting in mma ) within a minute you're in very good shape.

lol, i was sure this thread would turn into a commercial for vibram five fingers.

Here is a tip for a pre run meal. Blend some greek yogurt, 1 banana, 1 scoop of protein and 8oz of water. This will energize you for your next run.

i run only on treadmill is that count too?.but only for 5 minutes i start last sunday. mabe i can run longer after.isit good for learning boxing

The treadmill is helping you go vs running outside is 100% you. Use the tread on really bad weather days but try to run outside as much as you can.

You can wear some under armour cold gear, and smartwool socks. I be nice and warm during my runs.

I find that core training before jogging keeps me from stomach cramps & I find it easier to breath through my nose when I do 6 miles in 45 minutes, why is that.
