94. Consider other parts of your body.
When you run, what you would be developing would be your legs and lungs. However, it does not mean that you won’t need to develop other parts of your body as well to get fit. Thus, you should also do other workout routines, such as jump squats, crunches, sit-ups, pushups, and more, so that you can develop the other parts of your body.
95. Going uphill.
You need to stress your lungs and your muscles to a certain extent so that you can develop them further. Thus, one of the best things that you can do for it is to run uphill, since it can provide you the kind of challenge, which can push you hard enough. Don’t overdo it though, since it can get your muscles strained.
96. Always be careful about running.
If you want to continue running for a long period of time, then you should do everything to prevent injury. You should warm up properly by doing light stretching, walking, or spending a few minutes on the treadmill. Aside from that, you should also be wary of the dangers you could encounter on the road.
97. It is not a good idea to run on an empty stomach.
When you run, your body would actually make use of your energy so much. Thus, it is best if you can have a light snack just before heading out of your place to run. Having a sandwich with milk can provide you with the nourishment you need in order to go through minutes or an hour of running.
98. Don’t limit your carbohydrate consumption too much.
Eating healthy carbohydrates is one of the important things that you want to take note of, when you are running. As a rule of thumb, make your diet consist of 70 percent carbohydrates, 15 percent protein, and 15 percent of fat so that you have sufficient amounts of energy in running. Just make sure your protein sources are not loaded with too much fat though so that you won’t gain weight.
99. Don’t forget the supplements.
Taking a vitamin-mineral supplement is actually a good idea when you are running. It ensures that your body will be able to adequately convert the foods you intake into energy and protein, to support your increased rate in physical activities. Thus, search for a quality supplement today, so that you can use it soon.
100. Visualize achieving your goals.
One of the best things that you can do to boost your drive in achieving your goals is to use visualization techniques. When you visualize your success, it can greatly help you in achieving your desired results aside from controlling your nerves. Aside from that, it can also tap into your feelings, which is very important to keep you motivated in doing things to achieve your dreams.
