Health & Safety TIPS: post #3020 — TG.ME

🏃 What happens to your body in the first 10 minutes of a run: Most people quit at minute 3. That's exactly the wrong time to stop. Here's what's actually happening: → 0–2 min: Lungs demand more oxygen than they have. It feels awful. This is normal. → 2–4 min: Heart rate climbs. CO2 builds up. Breathing feels impossible. → 4–6 min: Blood flow redistributes. Muscles get warm. It starts to ease. → 6–8 min: Endorphins start releasing. Breathing syncs. You find a rhythm. → 8–10 min: The runner's shift happens. You could go for an hour. The pain you feel at minute 2 is not unfitness. It's your cardiovascular system switching fuel sources. Push past 7 minutes. Every single time. That's where fitness actually begins. 🗂 Source: @Primaltips ♻️ SHARE NOW
