How do build up stamina when you are running?
try running for a min then walking for min, then run, walk, etc.
Reply:Mind over matter. Ignore those pains and just keep going. Stamina is 25% physical and 75% mental. Eat a good diet and if you feel tired when jogging slow right down but try not to stop. Good luck.


I started running and 4 months later ran the London Marathon and I had never run before the 4 months training started.
Reply:Go on increasing the period every day and repeat after taking a short break.





Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.





Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.





U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.
Reply:practice. Try to go at least a minute longer than the time before. Before you know it, you'll be going much farther. Good Luck!
Reply:First thing you do is set your treadmill at 30-35 minutes on a brisk walk pace adjusting the speed as you get tired. Don't stop completely, just let it run it's course. this will condition your body to get used to it. Then each day gradually increase the speed and in no time you will be doing 5-10 minutes spurts of running.
Reply:perseverance.





Push yourself to 4 minutes for a couple of days. Then to 5. After a week or so you should be able to make yourself go for 10, and so on.





It really just takes determination and persistance.





Trust me, if I can do it, there's hope for anyone!

take out a sheet of paper - write out this plan - large enough to read from a table or stuck on the wall; near the exercise equipment . . . plot out the next month just like above but increase the Saturday run 15 seconds each Saturday





once in a while . . . once every 5 or 6 weeks . . . cut back the Saturday run . . . one half a minute or so . . . then the next Saturday go right back to the increase.





this will work . . . we take people who can run 3 miles and take them through a marathon (26.5 miles) . . . and we use this plan . . . only the numbers differ . . . the plan is the same.
Reply:run slower and slower run faster and faster each time you go on the treadmill. hold up head up high and breath in deeply. eat plenty of carbs the day before might help and getting enough sleep
Reply:add a few minutes each day. it's not going to happen over night. you have to work at it. good luck!
Reply:Just build it up gradually. Depending on how much work you are willing to do and how quickly you want to get your stamina up you could try half a minute more each day or a few minutes more each week or whatever you fancy.
Reply:I used to have that problem, until i started carrying water while i run. Do that, and also try holding a wheight in the other hand, it will build streangth in your arms also. And another note to self is to start out slower, dont start out fast or u will waste all your energy. and if u walk then run the walk then run, and continue that pattern, like everyone else says, it wont help. all that does is make your breath calm down the u will have to warm up again and again. it is best to continue at the same pace so your body dosent get confused. good luck, - michelle. :)
