the little green pills in the orphanage

People always go to the gym for fit. Someone wants to get shredded and someone wants to get jacked. As to me, the reason why I like gym is that I feel relax and be released after working out.
Generally speaking, men and women do different exercises. Men usually play with some weights like barbells and dumbbells to build muscles. They do several sets and each set has several reps. Women more like to do cardio like burpees, jumping and walking on the treadmill. But both need to warm up the body before doing exercises and to stretch after it in case of getting hurt. If you do not know what fits you, you’d better hire a personal trainer. They will teach you and give you some recommendations.
Last but not least, Eating healthy is also an important way for fit，especially when you are working out. Get rid of food with high calorie，like sweets, beverage, etc, will help you be slim more quickly.
