How do I increase my stamina to run longer?
Basically what the first guy said, except I will add, that you should increase your distance 10% a week. Also, lose some fat, I said fat not weight, if your going to play football and want stamina you don't want to carry extra unneeded weight, but you don't want to lose muscles. To gain stamina and to lose fat you have to go about both a little differently, I've already added to the part of stamina, now to lose fat you need to throw in sprints and other exercises that are short and intense.
Reply:go for a jog every day. start off with a distance that u feel comfortable with and as your stamina increases increase the distance slowly. things like this take time so don't expect results right away. good luck
Reply:you'll want to do some aerobic training: ie swimming, running or biking to have as a base for your workouts . . . football uses a separate energy system (anaerobic ) from distance running (aerobic) ~ to train for football, which involves a considerable amount of short energy bursts (think about it: average action in a 60 minute FB game is 13 - 17 minutes TOTAL), you need to train that particular energy system . . . after you've done 6-8 weeks of aerobic training, you can begin to do some interval or speed training, plyometrics (jumping for power) and weight lifting . . . short sprints 20 - 30 - 40 yards with a walk back recovery and as far the plyos are concerned, they are great for power and speed for your legs . . . good luck
Reply:try doing 1 lap around the block after say.. a month do 2 and so on maybe up and down the street..
