question about running. I wanted to start running and I just do 4.5 miles per hour. I'm not obese, I just don't like pushing myself. I did it for two weeks and then stopped. Should I continue running 4.5-5 miles per hour for 30 min OR should I run like 6-7(use to run 6-7 when I was normal weight) and then try and hold it for 2-3 minutes then stop then run till like 30 min.
my bmi is 26-27 not that bad. I'm just asking on a runner's point of view on how I can lose more weight and how can I improve my stamina

I saw on the biggest loser they do interval training0

I would suggest a combination of interval and endurance. Maybe switch them every other day.0

This is what I have one in the past. It worked well for me. Just be careful and don't injure yourself by pushing harder than what your body is ready for. Just ask my knees, it sucks!0 -
