best way to build cardio endurance? Also most running experts say that it takes two weeks for your body to fully incorporate the gains made by a workout, this is why many plans have a 7-14 day taper before the target race, anything you do within that window is not going to help you on your test, and you increase the likeness of soreness or injury, for no gain... |

How do you find a good personal trainer? Also see if you can find out their motivational style, ask if necessary, but watch them train if possible. What works for one client may not work for you. My wife had a trainer that would yell at clients (often cussing) during workouts and when he was not happy about their food journal contents. It worked for her, but it would not work for me. |

Quads vs Hamstrings in Squats and Lunges Thank you Kate, that link was informative. It may be that I am not going deep enough in my squats to effectively activate my glutes and hamstrings. |

daily upper body weightlifting? My wife's trainer had her break her upper workouts into Chest/Shoulders/Triceps one day, and Back&Biceps another. Personally Upper one day, lower the next works better for me. |

Quads vs Hamstrings in Squats and Lunges Often I do not have a partner/spotter, so I've been doing my squats on a Hammer Strength V-Squat Machine. For Lunges, I'm either doing Standing Dumbell Lunges, or Barbell Lunges on the Smith Machine. |

How to design a running program and diet plan for losing fat in a healthy manner? Gabriel makes good points about strength training. My wife lost a lot of wieght strenth training, then decided to run a marathon. She reduced/stopped the strength training, and dramatically increased her running, up to a peak of 40 miles/week. During this time she gained weight despite maintaining the same diet she had been using. |
