Cardio for a beast
Cardio is a key part to my workouts lately, I typically run a fast paced 2.5 mile run at about 90-80 percent of a sprint. This helps build endurance and will really help lean out the body. I rather do miles over sprints because sprints are harder on the joints and cause more issues with ligaments and muscles. I typically do a 2-4 mile bike ride as well during the day depending on how I feel. I do the bike ride as fast as I can ride, I don't do it to relax or cruise it's fast paced and only takes about 15 minutes to do, so time shouldn't be an issue when biking. The harder you ride the harder you work your leg muscles, it really helps loosen up your legs. I do my cardio before My workouts because it helps you battle fatigue. Doing this will really help with your endurance.

Chipotle is not healthy
I read an article on CNN stating that Chipotle finally came out of the wood works saying that HALF of their menu is GMO products. Yup that "ALL NATURAL" label was total bogus. Funny since I've had so many people try to convince me to go there saying that it was healthy. it's only reasonably healthy if you get the meat with maybe a taco shell since the wraps are dyed and lettuce. The salsa has over 1,000 MG's of sodium which is half of your daily value. The meat is also loaded with sodium to keep it preserved an average burrito has over 3,000 MG's of sodium. I feel sorry for the people that eat there. I've eaten there a few times, but once every blue moon not like most of the high shoolers who would stop there everyday after class. Be aware of what your eating if it's fast food even if they say it's healthy it typically isn't. If you don't know ASK. Or do some research on what your getting. If you go to their website it will say how much sodium etc. is in every item and it's honestly so high it's almost not believable. Take care of yourself's as always as health should always come first!

3 steps to increase your muscle growth
This is everyone's goal, Our society lives by the motto 'bigger is better" well if you live by that then your in the right place. The best way to get bigger actually isn't to workout more but to workout less below I will explain.
1. When you workout everyday your muscles need rest if there not getting rest then they can't grow, But this only applies if you are going to failure. If your not going to failure then your not pressing yourself hard enough. Taking your muscle to failure will breakdown the muscle more and allow it to grow more, but your muscle will need more time to rest so it can grow.
2. Do negative sets. What this you is when you can't do anymore you have someone help you with the weight on the way up, and go very slow on the way down. This rips up the muscle and will make them grow like crazy!
3. Be sure to eat A LOT of protein! A lot of people think they can just eat whatever they want like Penn station, Taco Bell etc. but that's just not the case you need healthy solid protein for your muscles to grow! If your not getting the protein then your muscles wont grow. It's very simple a car doesn't run without gas right? Well same with your muscles they wont grow with out proper fuel.
