The smell of autumn is already in the air. For many runners, this is the perfect time to break life records on their favorite distances. Improving individual performance is only possible with regular preparation, which requires consistency, iron discipline and adequate level of motivation. One of the elements that allows you to find enthusiasm to make an effort is music, which triggers positive emotions and facilitates the implementation of even the most arduous training.
Every athlete, regardless of their level of advancement, looks for motivation during demanding preparations for key competitions. They are one of the most boring activities and therefore require a proper mental attitude. There are plenty of people running around with headphones on in the streets of Polish cities. Their favorite pieces of music allow them to face their training routine. In addition to the motivational area, the rhythm of the music also influences the movement itself, regulating the number of steps taken per minute.
Running with headphones
Running in headphones requires appropriate knowledge in the field of skilful use of technological innovations. It is worth not to set the sound to the maximum for both he alth and safety reasons. The best equipment transmits ambient sounds, and the music itself should be selected in such a way as to enliven and motivate the runner, but not at the expense of his vigilance, especially on previously unknown routes.
Listening to music has permanently entered the canon of running culture. The term "Running music" has been around for years among enthusiasts of the discipline, and many of them cannot imagine their training without their favorite songs positively "winding up" them to travel the next kilometers. Of course, there is no perfect musical mix for everyone, so it is worth following not only your own taste, but also choose the rhythm to the training pace - says Patryk Muzyk, ultramarathon runner and ambassador of Saucony Polska.
"Music for active people"
The American brand, in cooperation with the manufacturer of electronic equipment and sports headphones, Creative, initiated a project called "Music for active people". Its purpose is to give athletes an additional boost of energy. Recognized producer, DJ Zein has created a piece of music that is suitable for both running and running trainingstrength force. The composition is balanced and allows you to complete the previously planned stages of the run. It is not a piece that is supposed to captivate you to a tiring sprint, but it is part of the endurance training at a distance of 5-10 km.
The runner is not alive with training alone. Another issue is listening to music just before the competition. For many, it is a kind of pre-start ritual that facilitates concentration and positively influences the obligatory warm-up. Everyone diversifies their time while running. Listening to the needs of your body is as important as finding the strength after a long day of work to take up physical activity in the evening.
Any method is good as long as it brings the desired result. Autumn is conducive to "personal life", so the most important thing is to take advantage of the favorable aura and move regardless of individual preferences.
