3 Step System to INSTANTLY BRING YOUR HEART RATE DOWN While Running

@0:40 instantly bring that heartrate down @13:40 expect it to take a long time... 🤔 Thanks for managing expectation

1st step: 4:24 - Know your HR ceiling 2nd step: 6:31 - Run a lot (4-5 times a week) 3rd step: 8:42 - Design workouts to lower your HR

"It's not who goes the fastest but who slows down the least" GOLD!

My zone 2 is walking !

Been following you for years Taren and have to say that this video has to be one of my favourite of all!!! Great job!

Well said Taren, many valid points. Great call out also about being patient, spot on. Patience and consistency in training, enough sleep, limiting stress, proper nutrition and the right mindset (leaving ego at the door), are all key. From personal experience, three other things that help keep HR lower on your runs: 1 = running without music, I've experience a difference of 5 to 8 beats while running aerobic on a track. Allows you to get your breathing, cadence and mind more in sync. All about running relaxed and in control. 2 = paying attention to your running form. Slight lean forward using gravity almost as a controlled fall forward. Also, using your arms well to improve running efficiency can make a difference. 3 = find some elevation profiles and use them to your advantage. Slowly jog (or even walk) up a long not too steep hill, turn around and run comfortable fast aerobic down. You made great points as well about the training volume and frequency. Lowering your running intensity surely helps to increase training frequency and volume without the added wear on their bodies. Thanks for this video!

1 run below threshold. 2 Run often. 3 run below threshold, in the morning, deep breathing, smooth cadence, frequent short runs, be patient.

I started zone 2 training about a month ago as per your advice in a vlog (or twoish) My pace went from 17:17 to a 15:40. I’m a heavier athlete and haven’t had progress like this in a very long time. Joined team trainiac last night

Thank you so much, this has helped me so so so much. Can’t tell you enough how I love this vid

Very accurate. Exactly what I've learned from triathlon coaches. We don't use the maffetone method but Z1/Z2 runs by Heart rate and not pace. Z3 and above are by pace.

Thanks to you , Taren, for going all out and sharing your hard-earned knowledge with us. You are a cool guy!

Says in video: "Quick-fixes dont exist" The title of the video is: "INSTANTLY BRING YOUR HEART RATE DOWN..." Hmmm

5 weeks to go before my first 110 miler . 15 minutes watching this have probably just prevented me from getting injured . Long runs at ZONE 2 all the way woohoooooo . Thanks pal 👍🏼

When I introduced you have to run slow to get fast my running group didn't buy into it - since then some got injured and no longer run others are completely wiped out after a race - me and my friend who embraced HR running - actually did get faster and when we finish a race it seems like we didn't run at all - our recovery is almost instant

tried this methods already.. 1. frequent run. im able to run my easy run below 150bpm after 14 months. 2. belly breathing technique works for me. 3. please take note that all person is different. some will take few months, some will take years. i stopped run for 6 weeks now and now im starting at zero again. know your body, and trust the process!. slow progress is still progress!!

My long-running (6 to 12 miles) pace is 9:30-9:45 per mile. I am not a triathlete, but I run every other day and bike about 5 days a week. I am also 72 years old and trying to get my 10 k back under 50 minutes. When I was 18, I ran 4;24 for the mile and about 55 for 10 miles, so I have slowed down a lot. I find that running every other day is a good way to keep from overtraining. Doing hill repeats at 5 k pace for 2 minutes is a good way to build strength and speed and to avoid injury.

Starts at 4:24

I can tell you're a Phil Maffetone disciple! I found Phil Maffetone back in 1993 when I purchased my first cardio monitor (Cardiosport Hellcat). I thought it best to read his book 'The high performance heart'. 27 years later, I'm now using a Garmin Fenix 6x pro and still reading his book on endurance training! This man's knowledge has kept me training safely for almost 30 years! Good to see you're spreading the word on the importance of building a solid aerobic base! Best wishes from Blighty✌️

Thank you Taren! 😉 I Felt that If I was not quick within months and if my HR wasn't low I was a bad runner. AND YOUR VIDEOS Showed me the right way 💪. AFTER Months of training I lowered my HR and I didn't get injured, that's the best part. 💜

Thank you for keeping it real for some of us beginners, very very useful, realistic and practical coaching
