Run as fast as you can for 1 min. Rest for 30 seconds. Then run again for 1 min, and rest. Repeat this at least 5 times and increase it every week. You WILL be tired after a workout like this, but it has such amazing results. Don't forget your protein and clean carbs. (

Cardiovascular disease or cardiovascular diseases refers to the class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels (arteries and veins). While the term technically refers to any disease that affects the cardiovascular system (as used in MeSH), it is usually used to refer to those related to atherosclerosis (arterial disease). These conditions have similar causes, mechanisms, and treatments. In practice, cardiovascular disease is treated by cardiologists, thoracic surgeons, vascular surgeons, neurologists, and interventional radiologists, depending on the organ system that is being treated.
