How To Get Faster

As someone who loves to exercise and especially loves running and cycling, I'm always searching for new ways to improve myself. Lately I've been digging in to ways to run and cycle faster since my speed is comparable to snails stumping through chocolate pudding...not so good as you can imagine. In order to improve that I started adding the following tricks to my routine and I'm already seeing a few differences. Now I'm sharing them with you so you can improve yourself as well. Let's get kicking!

Intervals
This is THE way that everyone will always tell you about. Interval training is used to keep speed while improving distance, but it can also be used to make you quicker. You can do this by running or biking just a tad bit further than you did on the last interval. Interval training is a must in every training schedule. It's great for getting faster, training endurance, it's great for cardio and stamina. Plus it's more fun than just repeating the same motion for 30 minutes.
