what should i do to increase my stamina and strength while running?

Answer 1

take steroids... i'm just kidding. You should eat a healthy diet, and make sure you build up on carbs before you run, they give you energy to make it through the run, pasta is an excellent source of that. Make sure you keep hydrated and drink lots of water, and what helps me is take something to help keep your mind off of being tired like maybe an ipod or mp3 to listen to, it really helps.

Answer 2

Basically stamina and strength is in-built in a person.
But to increase from what ever a person is blessed with one can take [kollu] this is nothing but what they give to horse. I am not joking i took that while i practised which was prescribed by my uncle. I was an athlete and he a boxer.
The procedure to take; initially take four to five spoons and soak the kollu in drinking water after washing, the previous night, then boil the kollu adding 100 or 200 ml of water, later filter the water and drink. This gives additional strength.

Answer 3

To increase your stamina thats easy. Just run. Run long distances and keep running untill you can run 4 to 5 miles consistantly. And also run sprints to increase your speed. When you run, run every other day to give your muscles to heal. So it should look like this run day, strength day, run day, strength day and so on. Besure to take at least one day off a week where you do nothing to give your whole body a chance to heal.
Now when you talk about strength are you talking about strenth for your legs, or all around? If you talking about for your legs you should be doing squats and calf presses.

Answer 4

Practice, practice and more practice.

Then it'll become your habit and you'r body will automatically start doing things to gain strength/stamina. This means you'll feel more hungry and eat and digest. Your respiration will settle for better breathing. Even the time you'll rest/sleep will be utilised fully by the body.

Answer 5

You need to be both flexible and have good stamina to be a champ on court.

This means:

- regular jogging sessions
- practice jumping regularly
- practice your game with friends daily if possible
- consider doing light weight training
- play, play, play
