Training for a marathon? How NAD+ Can Help

Training for a marathon is a mighty challenge, but not one that is impossible. For those that are looking to tackle a marathon themselves, it’s crucial to ensure you have everything in place for optimal performance – that’s where NAD+ therapy can help. 

If you’re hoping to conquer your first marathon with confidence or hit a new personal best, we’ve created a complete guide on how to incorporate NAD+ therapy to make the most of your body’s capabilities.

 

Marathon Training and Muscle Fatigue

 

Muscle fatigue is one of the biggest concerns for anybody who is looking to run a marathon. It’s essential that you build up endurance and keep your energy levels at optimum level. With this said, how exactly can somebody go about ensuring this, do you ask? 

In addition to incorporating strength training, different workout routines, and consuming healthy meals, the use of NAD+ IV infusions aids energy levels to aid in training. 

NAD+ works by helping our cells produce mitochondria which is partially responsible for how energetic we feel. NAD+ also works by boosting our ability to recover from stress as well as muscle strain, which results in enhanced training performance. 

 

Training for a Marathon Post Lockdown

 

Ready to begin your marathon training? Our post lockdown lifestyles have led to a natural decrease in energy levels, especially as we adjust back to the normal pace of things. Since marathon training takes around 16 weeks, you may be looking to put a plan in place as soon as possible. 

We recommend training 3-4 times a week alongside the use of NAD+ IV infusion therapies for maximum performance. 75% of your training should be carried out at a lower intensity, while the other 25% should comprise higher intensity training. This will help your body to build up stamina in a gradual way. 

NAD+ will also help when it comes to recovering after running too. Thanks to the benefits of NAD+, muscle repair is also accelerated meaning you will be able to make the most of your training sessions every time. 

 

NAD+ Infusions For Athletes

 

No matter whether you are an athlete or just starting out on your health journey, the benefits of using NAD+ are vast. To summarise, here are some of the ways NAD+ therapy can help you while you train for a marathon:

  • NAD+ revitalises mitochondria which boosts energy levels and enhances athletic performance
  • Some NAD+ therapy treatments are infused with vitamins and other types of nutrients that are beneficial for the body
  • NAD+ can help us feel younger, revitalised, and ready to take on any type of challenge! 

 

If you’re looking to boost your marathon training efforts, why not start incorporating NAD+ IV therapy today? Consult with our clinic to find the best option for your athletic needs.
