A few months ago I sold my gym and now am in ponder 'what to do'.. it was a small gym and in Asia so, not much money to last long in thought.
ANYWAY, since my gym is gone and I am basically drifting around. Making it a lean out part of life, decided to strengthen my cardio and all the areas of endurance neglected.
Running trails and mini marathons seems like a good way to explore new areas of the country, while building new strengths both mentally and physically - Plus gathering a few medals and swag is cool for awarding these achievements. (which compliment my career portfolio in fitness )
SOOOOOOO....
Is anybody here an active runner? How often and how far will be most beneficial with least muscle atrophy?
I am not sure body fat percent but I am much leaner than usual, not showing the abs definition yet but my obliques are looking best of all my years..now at 43.. I know I lost some bulk, but... i am not worried of that.. been just strength training recently. Building up weak links before I do some test - which is local store bought - and bulk up a bit again starting from a lean physique.
I eat clean foods,,and no beef and no pork . Raw eggs a lot, milk, chicken, fish, seafood, yogurt, powder milk formula (alternative to protein powder which is expensive here) , complex carbs... diet is check .... I have diet and resistance training knowledge ... just new to endurance events - other than bedroom clam pounding - for cardiorespiratory and type 1 muscle primary development.
Thanks
