It's
little over 2 years later and the past 6 weeks I've been doing about half an hour of cardo (running) each week and focused the rest of my time (about 5 - 6 hours / week) on mixing cardio and strengh for an all - over body training (
again, I was pretty much completely out of shape before these 6 weeks) and fair enough, I've watch my food intake (it's been VERY clean, lots of whole food) but I've gained so much muscle mass,
