I’m frequently asked how to get the benefits of sprinting if you can’t run for one reason or another. Simple: use a different type of exercise.

While it’s true that running offers the greatest bang for your buck, you can still get a lot of reward from other activities so long as you manage to do brief, high-intensity efforts. Some of my favorite non-running sprint alternatives:

- Sled pushes

- VersaClimber

- Rowing machine

- Swimming or running in a pool

- Stationary bike

- Burpees

- Jump rope or jumping jacks

- Rope pull machine (my current favorite)

Depending on the activity, it might make sense to do a Tabata-style working (20 seconds work, 10 seconds rest, repeat x8) instead of taking full recoveries between reps. As always, the goal is for the last rep to be as strong as the first and to finish feeling energized.

Also consider that you can adapt running sprints by running uphill or on sand – or both, if you have access to a sand dune.

Whatever you do, do it safely. Warm up and cool down appropriately. Keep the workout short. Stop if you feel any niggles or if your focus wanes. There’s no prize for overdoing it and blowing out a hamstring.

Tripping around high above the Silver Valley today. Ran into the location of an old fire lookout.

It is hard not to find someplace beautiful in North Idaho. It doesn’t matter what direction you go.

After years of rejections from journals targeted at dietitians, this paper has finally been published. It questions the value of “meatless initiatives” and shows that reducing red meat consumption can cause harm to pregnant women, children and those vulnerable to undernutrition (hunger) and overnutrition (obesity).
 
We were trying to get in front of dietitians to encourage them to see how meat consumption can actually help  with solving many nutrition problems, because of the important micronutrients in meat, and because of protein’s satiating qualities.
 
Some of the ridiculous rejection comments were:
 
“It is known that meat contains nutrients, but also deliver far more calories than plant-based foods, making it very easy for people to consume more calories than they need, and therefore execrating the obesity epidemic” (not true and we showed this in the paper)
 
“We generally eat more protein than we need anyway.” (nope)
 
“Reduced physical activity is a major reason for sarcopenia, many elderly people do consume adequate protein.” (not true)
 
“Almost no one in the U.S. is protein deficient.” (false)
 
“Iron needs in pregnancy cannot be met even with red meat, that’s why the recommendation is an iron supplement.” (false - absorption is better with heme-iron than supplements)
 
“Promoting more food intake for people with obesity who already consumed too much is not prudent.” (we are promoting different, not ‘more’)
 
“The commentary fails to make a sufficient contribution to the literature.” (really?!?)
 
These comments were also similar to why my book, Sacred Cow, was rejected by so many publishers.
 
If you think that “science” is settled, and that there’s no bias against meat among dietitians, here’s proof that’s wrong.
 
If you’d like to read and share the paper, it’s published in Frontiers in Nutrition.
