Damn, it have killed my calves 3 moths in a row now. EVery fucking time, it kills them...increase the running time or speed, kills them even more...
Training calves at the gym is just plain shit!

Unless you weigh less than 150, this feels like something that will badly damage your heels/ankles/knees/hips.

Seriously. At 230, my knees/ankles already hate my guts from running with 40lbs in my ruck and humping gear... and i only did that for a couple years...
Even running without a load now causes serious pain in my right knee and my ankles crack the whole time.
-
230 pound is a lot of weight! Stop use gear or get rid of fat. 190pound should be the ideal weight if your 6" 3 less is shorter...
A strong healty body should look like a pole vaulter. Slim strong.
The main problem with slim is that the older u get the more shit u look, old fat people looks better than slim old people...maybe steorids are the best alternative after 40 50

Uh, yeah.... im just a tad under 6'3" and have a huge bine structure. I got to 209 once, in boot camp, and i looked emaciated.
I just dont have the genetics to be a good runner. Im big and heavy. When i had gear on I weighed betweem 270 and 320... but i never ran at the heavier weight. Its still hell on joints though. And im not going to kill myself dropping muscle and fat so that i can run without tearing up my joints.

Some people grow all their life. Its like they testo and gh levels dosent stop producing...
Go swim! : ) All big animals live in water haha

A large % of getbiggers are pole-vaulters.

It's more how well u know how to run the right way, which majority don't. When I ran regularly I didn't know either. Thought a well cushioned jogging shoe and I'm set. With cushioned shoes people forget and neglect how u should run naturally with care opposed to bare feet. Make a test how u run barefeet and with jogging shoes.
Bare feet let your muscle work better than with cushioned shoes, because u will use your muscle rather depend on your shoes on impact. Your joints get abused due to "loose" techique, more jumping off the ground cause u don't care with your adipren,gel,shox and heel impact. Bare feet u will strike with mid and/or forefoot.
There is a bit more about running techique but bare feet gives the right direction.

Kenyan runners all run barefoot until they start making money from running. Then it becomes a status symbol to run in running shoes. I don't believe it's good for us though. We haven't walked barefoot since were able to walk to our teens and beyond. Our feet aren't callused and tough. We also don't have the muscles developed in the feet and stability muscles.We live where there is asphalt and cement. We don't run on grass and dirt. Real cushioned shoes might be good for heavy novice runners but there is something to be said for lightweight running shoes. It makes you run in a more natural gait. A cushioned shoe also makes it more easy for your foot to over pronate leading to stress injuries. I wear cushioned shoes due to all my joint issues. Reading this thread has motivated me to break out the light weight racing running shoes for a couple of runs.
-
While barefoot running might be the most natural way to run, it's just not practical for modern life as concrete and asphalt are not our natural walking/running surfaces.
I've had success with Asics Cirrus and Kayano, both are well-cushioned

I agree unless on a beach

Ofc I wouldn't run bare feet :D A lot of sports brand hype bare feet running, with their shoes which mimicks bare feet running. But u don't get the bang for your buck paying 100+dollars with thin soles.
Just buy cheap runnning shoes and learn to run with a technique.

On the beach..a big yes. Can alternate running on the heavier sand and than closer to the shore line, where the sand is a little bit more packed. Gets the calves, as well as the front shin, very well. Also great way to build endurance, when 40 yard dashes are included in heavy sand. Not near any beach, than suggest running on grass. In either case, sand or grass, if on a hilly area so much the better.
Guy's who start martial arts/MMA/UFC type training are surprise with the amount of calluses than can be built up rather quickly. The original skin layer will peel off as the tougher level develops underneath. Blisters, may be a problem at first Could even run on your gym indoor tracks, starting with short distances at first, just to adapt to the harder surface.
I will usually squat and DL's barefooted. Seems to allow a better foot gripping for me.
Just my view: A lot of those big buck "training" shoes are over hyped just to grab your wallet. People do fall for that every day, sports shoes are a billion dollar business around the world.
Good Luck.

Your body was designed to run in bare feet. Yes, even on hard surfaces. Concrete is not appreciably harder than the dirt, gravel, rocky surfaces you will find in nature that help to develop our running bodies.

Bareback running

i agree i used to run regularly with a guy who was a Tri athlon guy. His running technique was amazing he just moved like a Gazell. My pace was shorter than his and so i was actually wasting energy. He was far more efficient. i buy running shoes that are on sale because they are a running out Model.. get a good price.

Why are you running when so many weights need lifting?

absurd for someone over 5'10.

Weights are good for size and strength, but don't do much for the aerobic system.
Running is great for the aerobic system but doesn't do much, if anything, for size and strength.
The two complement each other quite well.

I remember lou ferrigno talking about going running for cardio in pumping iron.
-
If you are over 40 and over 180 lbs, you shouldn't be running. Just hit the treadmill or precor for cardio.
-
Lou Ferrigno actually ran a really decent half mile in the Super Stars show back in the day. He ran 2:21.25 for the half. Most commercial treadmill top out at 5:00 minute mile pace. Set the treadmill at your gym at top speed and see if you can hang on for a half mile. Then realize big Lou ran faster than that. Lou also won the car deadlift contest in the World's strongest man. I would like to see how today's Olympia contestants would have fared in the World's Strongest man or the Super Stars show. He actually was an amazing athlete. He tried to play football in the Canadian league but he never played before and on top of that he couldn't hear the count.

Barefoot running or barefoot walking in public is something only white people do, disgusting! I'm ashamed :D
