Complete Guide to Running for Weight Loss

Complete Guide to Running for Weight Loss

“I’ve been trying to eat “better” for a while now, but participating in Clean and Lean (now running for weight loss) gave me so much useful information that I could easily apply to my life. I guess I say “Amanda says” so much that my husband has started referring to you as my hero.” – Beth U.

Tired of feeling fat? Thinking about food? And ready for results? I was too!

STOP THE MIND NUMBING WORRY ABOUT FOOD!

This guide is designed to be fast, efficient and effective.

We know that running is great for burning calories, but there’s so much beyond that to truly make it work for lasting weight loss. I’ve kept off my 35lb weight loss for over a decade through exactly what I’m sharing with you here.

This is a system that works and lasts. Simple tricks and tips that will change your relationship to food by teaching you what the heck clean eating even means and then how to do it without even thinking about it.

Buck the trends and the fad diets, use this guide to create a lifestyle you can enjoy forever to achieve optimal weight, health and athletic performance.

This program is designed to provide support, encouragement, tips and motivation to create habits that make clean eating a lifestyle.

It’s time to combine your work in the gym (oh dang, I am going to make you do things besides run), with smart choices in the kitchen and a mind set that will keep you on track.

Amanda Brooks : Run Coach
KEEP GOING. You never know when your moment will c KEEP GOING. You never know when your moment will come. You have to keep showing up when it’s hard when it’s frustrating and even when it doesn’t go as it should. 

⭐️Shalane was a professional athlete by 2004 and didn’t win NYC until 2017.

🏃‍♀️Des Linden took second in the 2011 Boston Marathon. It was 7 YEARS of training before she took first.

👏I have many friends who needed 8+ marathons to get their BQ.

👍Serena Williams has had loses that the press would consider catastrophic and she admits to hating them, but using them to find more strength.

🤔Walt Disney was fired for lack of imagination! But he kept going.

The list is long of those who didn’t succeed on the first attempt. The thing they all have in common is continuing on, adjusting the plan, staying focused on the goal.

SUNDAY RUNDAY MOTIVATION!! Share with a friend and I’d love to hear what keeps you going after a bad race.
ANKLE AND FOOT STRENGTH - A lot of questions latel ANKLE AND FOOT STRENGTH - A lot of questions lately about shin splints and while they’re commonly the result of adding too much distance or speed too soon...
🏃‍♀️you can also work on strength, mobility and running technique.

Let’s start with some strength pieces!

⭐️ Plus, these movements are stellar for anyone with ankle pain or needing more lower body strength to hit the trails.⭐️

👇👇
10-12 reps x 2 a day
1️⃣Banded rotation - hitting the peroneal muscles that run along the outside of your lower leg these control ankle movement and foot strength. Better ankles, better stability, less shin pain.

2️⃣Banded turn outs - helping with muscles that control the arch of your foot and prevents knee, ankle and foot from dropping in if the arch isn’t staying strong with each step.

3️⃣Toe raises - we’re really hitting the front of the shins with this. Make it easier with legs closer to wall.

4️⃣Calf raise with ball - calf strength and arch strength happening with the use of the ball, which can again prevent the foot falling inward. Also strong calves absorb impact and spread lower leg load.

5️⃣Foam roll along outside of shin and calves to release tightness from overworked muscles.

Have you ever dealt with shin splints or ankle injuries??
EMBRACING A PAUSE🤢🤢 - It’s been a decade s EMBRACING A PAUSE🤢🤢 - It’s been a decade since I’ve been can’t move from the couch sick. I don’t recommend this stomach bug.

In truth, I’ve been thinking I needed to hit pause for a few weeks.

💼 I’m so excited about what’s happening in my business, I’ve been hard charging for the last year.

🏃‍♀️I’m finally enjoying adding in hills and speed and strength, but could tell I needed a big down week... I just didn’t want to.

🥾On vacation or with fam, I’m always sneaking in work and again that’s not entirely bad because I love it.
|||
BUT LIKE AND INJURY, sickness is a reminder to appreciate our health.

🟧I’m not trying to make up the missed workouts.
🟩I’m not guilt tripping over eating Cinnamon Toast Crunch because it was all that would stay down after 30 hours.
🟦I’m not feeling bad for moving a lot of meetings and not responding to nearly any messages.

What reminds you to step back and press pause??

📸from our great trip a few years ago. Those long vacations are my best way of letting go.

🐦 early birds let’s hear, what time do you get up??? These times are often 🤯🤯

Most of the year I’m up by 5, which often leads to “when do you go to bed?!?!” 
Early 😂.
I’ve been prepping for AARP time since we moved to Miami and it was so dang hot. 

The habit stuck, so now I’m up early and lifting it not heading out immediately in the snow.

In my early 20s, I ran after work and then a lot over lunch...even in to marathon training.
👇
Now I have to psych myself up for evenings which is when most groups are!
