endurance running 1 time a week is not enough to build the actual endurance. like speed training, endurance for running diminishes very quick. waiting 6 to 7 days to do it will not allow for it to build up to any appreciable level. if you want to run for endurance, i would probably set aside 3 days a week for it. just to let you know though, the form, tempo, and muscles used in endurance running will conflict with cns innervation for explosive sprinting meaning by trying to gain in both, you will be negatively affecting the other - mainly your sprinting will get worse.

How am i not building endurance? I am just not at a very fast rate. Which is my goal because for summer next year is when Ill have to do 300yd gassers, and ill get my endurance in then. I just want to be semi-ready for it. I think training endurance 0x a week is worse than 1x. I just want to be healthy mainly not be able to run a marathon

You really think running 3 miles a week, 1x a week will make my sprints worse? Its a totally different style of running.. Im only trying to gain 3-5 seconds off my 3 mile time every week.

also lots of running will hurt your wheels...

Im not doing too much. 2 days a week is not a lot and I have 4 off days from any kid of lifting or running. Im nto gonna overtrain doing 3x a week

endurance running requires slow twitch fibers to be trained for long training sessions. sprints and explosive lifts/movements require fast twitch. they are trained completely different. time under tension isnt even close. endurance = long periods speed/explosiveness = seconds. if trained like a hockey player or soccer where its sprint into run and then sprint, you can get longer periods but size isnt usually an issue in these sports and it is for yours, if you really try to play football.

its training in a manner where youre making your body compete against itself to make progress. makes no sense from a training standpoint.

yea that makes sense, thanks for clearing it up.

Like I said IM not training for endurance, I just want to run 3 miles 1x a week to get used to it. That shouldnt bother with my other training too much.

this is not the same with everyone, some people are more sensitive, personally I often eat my pre workout meal then leave for the gym 10mins later. and my pre workout meal is usually chicken and brown rice or steak or something of the sort.

I doubt you are doing enough cardio to notice the difference. If he is talking true endurance training, 30 min to 1 hr cardio, eating is difinately going to have issues eating right before or during.

If you are able to eat like that and run 5 miles without issues, consider yourself in a very low percentile of people who can pull that off.

My buddy takes glucose packs with him when he runs but he does marathons!!!
A lil cardio that would be overkill IMO

Haha ok so no food during cardio. Maybe ill just bring a gatorade because its fast carbs and probably has as many calories as id be burning. Thx for the help guys

To be quite honest, and maybe it shouldn't be said or isn't important, but the posts that I read by "future" would hit someone like myself and catch my eye. Not only would ONLY a serious athlete come to him for advice...he would also be very likely to turn away any athlete that wasn't serious.

For this reason...I'd like to save up and become at least a part-time client of his just because I believe that I MIGHT could learn something from him if I listen and ask lots of questions.

I believe this because I run a center for Autistic families, Doctors, and other professionals and we are at the point that if anyone working with us or paying us to work with/for them does not show 100% seriousness...we cut them no matter how much $$$ it costs us. It simply is not worth our time. And we are talking $300-500 an hour clients.
