1320 MILES ON A TREADMILL 

I’m a 76 year old who has loved running since 1965, lots of miles on these bones 😅I’ve own a Live Strong treadmill which is my go to when the weather says no no not today. Thanks for the inspiration, I’m not done yet 🏃🏿‍♂️🙏🏾

As I got into my late 20s, I started realizing that I wasn't recovering like I used to. The treadmill not only is easier on my joints and body overall, but it also spares me the absolute misery of having to run outside in the winter. I'm not competitive anymore, but I work full time as a CPA and I am still about 85-90% of my high school PR speed at 30. I feel my best when I am at this level of fitness, so I just keep consistent.

As an NCAA athlete, I can confirm that there are MANY benefits to running on the treadmill..especially thru out summer training w/ workouts (tempos), faster ez runs, and even recovery runs (due to the soft surface compared to gravel roads). Great vid, as always!! 🔥💪

I am a self trained 24 year old runner and although I have run a lot outside, in 2023 I did a large amount of work on the treadmill as for the same reasoning as Yaseen here said, time efficiency. I have went from a strong despair for the treadmill to nowadays it is often a blessing to hop on the treadmill earbuds in fan blowing and just getting in the zone. Initially for me running at 10mph on the treadmill was very difficult even though running on concrete or track the same pace is more moderate difficulty, but eventually I got the hang of it. I personally like a treadmill with .5 incline for some reason feels better than completely flat or 1 incline. Either way, nice video. Peace from Nashville.

Incline on the treadmill?

Just a tip for future videos. You should put black outline when using white subtitles on the video, that way it can be easily read even with bright/dark background. Love your dedication and it paid off!

1:19 subtitles give away the secret to Yaseen’s success

As a student training inside is amazing, I can study and do my zone 2 or 1 sessions simultaneously.

I’d be interested in a documentary

where is the e-book??

Are there any sort of guidelines for a good treadmill or something like that?

I have a nordic treadmill in my garage. Since i work a physical job in construction i will always be tired. Just having it just a few steps away from my room is a life saver. Plus having sports induce asthma being inside for the winter is better for me physically and mentally till I have races. 2% incline works for me

Keep making it happen!

“Mocha Tier” 5:10

Documentary would be sick, especially considering your unique progression

Hi yaseen, what is the name of the treadmill you used and if you have any recommendations of some that you think that feel “nice”. Thanks!

love your work Yaseen! What would be a great workout for a 2k race

Trickster

as a high school athelte would you recommend to esay and long runs on the treadmill. Also love your videos they help alot. Just wanted to share Gods love with you and tell you about Jesus. He is real and really did live and die just for you he knows you by name. the diciplies wouldnt have died if he wasnt real, why would they give their life for something that is fake. he forgives and changed my life and gave me a undiscrable hope and joy. i want everyone to experince that. praying for you Yassen lmk if you wanna chat.

documentary would be fire 😻

I feel guilty for liking the treadmill sometimes, thank you for making this. I prefer to do my long runs on them because I can watch tv or a podcast. They're easy pace so I'm not distracted. I don't have to plot 16-20 mile loops or run a 4 mile loop 5 times. I started on them because I'm also in ATX and got heat stroke this past summer when it was really hot, so I moved to treadmills and found I liked them after acclimating. I still do some runs outside, but also do some on the treadmill. I like doing my tempos outside, but intervals and long runs on the treadmill. Easy zone 2 for shorter distances outside. To each their own. Thank you for making this.

Love seeing this; currently spend about 60% of my time on my tread, and I love it. Started measuring lactate a few months ago, which is REALLY hard to get right without the controlled environment that a treadmill provides. However, even knowing that it's the right thing for my training approach, I still question myself. Typically because I'm surrounded by a bunch of "anti-treadmill" runners, guys with intentional 10+ year no treadmill streaks. Always makes me second guess whether I can do the same thing outside that I can do on the tread. Seeing your results, I know I can.

People have told me that running on the treadmill isn’t as effective as running outside as the treadmill moves for you so all you’re really doing is bouncing, putting more stress on your joints and stuff rather than making your muscles work. Is this true and did you find this as a problem in your training? Loved your video!

What’s your avg hr on easy runs? (Roughly)

Any chance that training e-book can be broken into two parts? Part 1: where you go from 22 min 5k and 4:56 mile fitness to 15 min 5k and sub-4:30 mile fitness. Part 2: where you go from 15 min 5K fitness and sub-4:30 mile fitness to 13 min 5k and sub 4-minute mile fitness?

You’re inspiring many people, including myself Yaseen! That sort of discipline and dedication is not easy to come across. Really gets me pumped up to get back into training! Im excited to see the documentary!

My treadmills surface is too hard and kills my knees after two days but I definitely would use it if I could. Running in 20° weather up in Michigan is not too fun 😭

Dude I love the treadmill for all the reasons you've discussed. I ran a lot of my mileage on the mill for my recent marathon prep. For about....I don't know, maybe 75-80% of my 85+miles per week were done on the mill. This included: long runs (upwards of 2.5-3hrs on the treadmill), easy runs..just set at a comfortable jog pace for 60-90mins...tempo runs... even repetition stuff like 800m or 1km repeats. I just really like the ability to set the appropriate paces with ease...have time and distance right in front of me. Some may argue that treadmills are not 100% accurate and/or they don't simulate outdoor running exactly; accuracy of the treadmill is not as important as its validity as a training tool. I use the same treadmill each time I train on one...whatever 10mph is on that treadmill when I set it may be more or less 10mph, however I'm consistently using that same treadmill set to a given speed to elicit the appropriate heart rate or RPE or w.e. response. If it's off, it's consistently off in the same way...what matters is if I'm able to increase the mph number on that treadmill over time without an increase in heart rate or RPE. If you're able to do that (using the same treadmill), you know that you're fitness is improving. Anyway, I doubt it held me back at all for my marathon preparation. I've only been running since September of 2022 and was able to hit a 3hr marathon within about a year of running--a lot of that running was done on the good ol' mill.

A documentary would be dope

Make a video about the logistics

if i were to watch movies on the treadmill should i do it on hard days also? did you?

Running that many miles on a treadmill and not getting shinsplints is a superpower

That feeling when u spend two hours looking for a movie to run to

What pace do you run for your easy days to feel the best?

Do you incline your treadmill for workouts or easy runs?

Good video! I like watching these even though I just run about 10 miles a week recreationally.

Yeah, i used to wrestle and did up to 20 miles on a treadmill with no trainers.

Did you calibrate treadmill to slightly harder incline or speed to account for a bit of an “easier” stimulus (i.e., it’s moving underneath)? In other words, would 5 min pace on track or road have to be done at 4:55 or 1% grade to make it an even effort?

hey man! running the longhorn run in April and super excited video helped pump me up! keep it up and hope I get to meet you on campus one day LMAO

real.

Only thing I don’t like about the treadmill is that the miles never match my watch miles! Anyone else has this problem?

Just curious -why would a treadmill go 60mph if humans can’t go above 27.5mph?

Yaseen, do you focus on diet heavily or do you just eat whatever just making sure you get enough calories?

The treadmill was how I managed to increase my mileage. Every single time I crossed 60m/wk, I blew something and couldn’t train for a few weeks at minimum. It sucked. I invested in a treadmill after seeing professionals like Jakob and Mo using them for their sustained paces and decided to give it a shot. Game changing.

is 4 easy days , 1 speed day and 1 threshold day too much slow training for 1600m?

60 mph 💀 (I think bro means 16 mph xd

I’m sold. I’m never running outside again. The treadmill in my house is getting the work for the rest of my life.

I would definitely watch the documentary!

I run Ultras and have been using Treadmills for over 20 yrs. I can dial "It" in on the mill. Love my Mill

I really struggled to go at my regular pace outdoors on the treadmill and usually needed to slow down 7:30 to 8:15/30. Doing so i lost fitness pretty quick. How should i build fitness on the mill in the offseason? It get basically impossible to run at times during the winter cause of cold and weather.

Huge inspiration! Makes me want to get a treadmill so bad too, I wish I had one.

16mph, not 60 lol, subtitles. The precors are nice. I heard ingebrigtsen runs 49sec 400M repeat sometimes. You would need a treadmill that goes over 18mph. That would be nice but it probably costs $15-30k lol. Where is this ebook and website? I do not see it in the comments.

Love the video!! Can’t wait for the documentary. Free Gaza habibi - i peeped the bracelet

What's the sweet spot for grade on easy runs and workouts on the treadmill?

WHAT'S UP YASEEN??!!!?!

"Earth is not gonna give like a precor treadmill is gonna give" - Yaseen 2023

Yes to documentary. Looking fwd to ebook you mentioned. Thx.

Was that Pete n bas playing in the sped up clip at the end???

100% I do the majority of my doubles on the tready and it’s my savior during the winter

I would watch a documentary You got a new subscriber btw

Bouncy treadmills next big thing

Please make the documentary!!

Love it, man. Awesome stuff.

really appreciate you, thanks for sharing

Documentary🙏🙏🙏

Tempo runs on treadmills are the best 👌 They keep you from not pushing to hard..

Do you use incline on the treadmill? Thx!

make a documentary. need more vids🙏

What's your heartrate for the 3 mile record?

I want to start doing running content what do you use for videos?

Documentary would be so hype

Love your pointers. Keep going my brother ❤

6:30 You mean 16 mph right 😅

what would be a good treadmill to buy that is not too expensive

What do you do to not get injured

What a journey man, amazing

How do you feel about the elliptical?

Revisiting this vid

Let's Go Yaseen!!!

Yes to the documentary

Can we get a weekly video?

Documentaryyy woop woop

Yes on the documentary

What do u use to edit?

BROOO!!! You speak the truth !!! Thanks for the video

It’s hard to find a treadmill that can contain my stride, I’m 6’5 with a really long stride. Most of them can’t contain that. Have you experienced that constructed feeling of a treadmill?

LOOOL Pete & Bas at the end. Good work - way to make it work!

Id watch one

Do any of your mates or anyone you know with winning 5k times cross train with indoor exercise bike? Any details?

yaseen is eepy

did you also do your easy runs on the treadmill?

It's called the hamster wheel. The word treadmill is problematic.

Wow very good. Did you say your treadmill does 60 mph or 16 mph?

60 mph treadmill 💀

What treadmill do you use or what are some good ones for training?

Mocha Tier 😂

Documentary is needed.

Early Christmas gift!!

documentary pls 🤞

any recommendations for treadmills?
