✤ MIKE MENTZER JOGGING


MIKE MENTZER JOGGING!

In a full interview, uploaded to YouTube, it showed Mike Mentzer, the famous American bodybuilder during 1980's, renowned for his HIT training method, talking and giving insight into the world of jogging, where he said…

“Your aerobic activities (jogging, in this case) should all be performed at a relaxed pace.” 

He argues that once a person is breathless, huffing and puffing, it would increase the proportion of sugar instead of fat being burned as fuel. 

“If you can’t talk easily while jogging or bicycling you are working too intensely, perform your aerobics at what is called Conversational Pace, and you will be using up to 90% fat as fuel, so reduce your pace.”

Is it true? 
Searching around the internet, there were multiple sources that also, like Mike Mentzer, recommended you to keep your speed when running, not too fast nor too slow. 


Check them out.



So! A Conversational Pace, Easy Pace or Steady State Cardio, is when you're jogging at a speed at which you can essentially have a conversation with someone under performance. Mike Mentzer gave a fun and enjoyable way of training, ensuring less fatigue and more overall more exercise in the end. And the more fitter you get, the more you are able to increase the speed at which you are jogging, cycling or running.

Feel to share your thoughts on this, and do comment some feedback if there is anything you spot to be wrong. Thank you for reading!

See you around!

(All images shows drawings and illustrations made by Dorian Etan. All credit goes to him!) Step 1  ❃ Determine your light value Your light value is your Local Value. Your Local Value is as Dorian Etan says, "the general brightness of the material". Think of leather for example. A black leather jacket has a darker Local Value than a brown leather jacket. A white leather jacket has a lighter Local Value than a brown leather jacket. For drawing a white Plaster Cast for example, you would choose your Local Value to be fairly light. In the case of imaginative drawing, you could choose whatever Local Value you want, that's the joy of creating for you! Dorian Etan went with white ...
