INPUT ARTICLE: Article: There's no way around it - getting big takes hard work! If you aren't already working out regularly, try to fit at least four workout sessions into your weekly schedule. You can do even more if you like, as long as you give yourself a chance to rest and recuperate. Your path to bigness starts on your calendar devote plenty of time to your goal, and you'll see results. There's no single "best" workout what works for one person may not work for another. Many health resources recommend workouts of about 30 minutes to an hour. As long as you stay on task, this should be plenty of time however, some people prefer longer, less intense workouts. The workout schedule above should work for most people. However, it's far from the only workout plan out there. There are a huge variety of workout plans available for free online all it takes is a simple search engine query to find plenty of good ones. Getting big muscles means spending lots of time doing resistance training. To many people, this basically means "lifting weights." This is a great way to put on muscle, but this isn't actually the only way to do resistance training. For example, bodyweight exercises (like pushups, lunges, and so on) and exercise bands are two other ways to build muscles. Regardless of the exact exercise routine you use, a strong focus on challenging resistance training should lead to muscle growth. Traditional weightlifting wisdom is that performing high weight, low rep exercises tend to increase muscle size, while performing low weight, high rep exercises tend to increase muscle tone. However, recent research seems to suggest that as long as you work to the point of fatigue, you should build muscle with either strategy. Cardio training activities like running, cycling, jogging, swimming, elliptical training, and so on isn't bad for you. In fact, it's great for you and is known to have many physical and mental health benefits. However, when you're trying to build muscle, putting a heavy focus on cardio can sometimes be like shooting yourself in the foot. Cardio exercise takes lots of time and energy and won't necessarily give you the sorts of big, bulky muscles you're looking for, so the time you spend doing cardio can often be better spent doing resistance training. Aim to spend no more than a day or two per week on cardio training. One good way to manage the amount of cardio you do is to reserve cardio for your "off" days that is, the days when you don't have any resistance training scheduled. This way, you don't waste any time that you would have spent building muscle on cardio. Having trouble sticking to your workout routine? Stay motivated by joining a group of people who are also dedicated to their own workouts! Becoming part of a group doesn't just give you people to talk with your struggles, joys, and victories with it also makes it harder to slack off because your team members will hold you accountable for it! If you can find people to work out with you in your friends or family, great! If not, consider joining an exercise class at your local gym it's a great opportunity to meet someone! Alternatively, consider getting in touch with an exercise meetup group. These are groups of people who coordinate online to meet at gyms and exercise together. A simple search for "Fitness meetup (your city name)" should yield decent results. The time you don't spend exercising is just as important as the time you do spend exercising when it comes to building muscle. If you don't give yourself time to rest, your body won't be able to rebuild your muscles as effectively after you break them down through exercise. Remember, building big muscles takes patience, so don't overdo it give your muscles at least one day a week without exercise. In addition, you'll want to make sure to get a full night's sleep after each exercise session. Human growth hormones (the chemicals that help you build muscle) are at their highest levels when you sleep, so neglecting to get a good night's rest after a workout is essentially robbing yourself of muscle gains.

SUMMARY: Aim to work out 4-5 times per week. Use resistance training to build muscle. Be conservative about your cardio training. Join a workout community. Get plenty of rest.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Now that you have your educational roadmap, make a lesson plan which specifically lists how you will get them to each step in that road. Every skill that will need to be mastered in order to get them between those mini-goals will need to be planned and written down. When making your lesson plan, keep learning styles in mind. Every student learns differently and if you want your whole class to have equal opportunity for success, you will need to accommodate these. Plan to use sound, visuals, manipulatives, physical activity and the written materials along with your student centered lessons for facilitating, introducing, modeling, giving guided practice and periodic homework all for each subject, whenever possible. If you are in an environment where you can interrelate subject matters, such as science and math or English and history, do some of that. This will help students understand how information is applied and is more related to the situations they will encounter in the real world. Life is not broken up into class subjects, after all. Find ways that you can collaborate with other teachers to provide your students with engaging, integrative lessons.

SUMMARY: Outline each course that you teach to achieve education goals; the school may require each teacher to have a course syllabus or similar document. Consider learning styles. Mix subject matter to build cross-curricular, multiple skills.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Hold her hand, play with her hair, and kiss her spontaneously. You want to keep physical contact between you throughout your relationship. It's easy to take a partner for granted, especially when you've been together for a long time, but maintaining physical contact is very important for helping you create and keep a strong bond. It can feel kind of awkward, especially if you aren't used to doing it, but talking about your relationship is healthy and important. It's generally a great bonding activity to make plans for the future and discuss what you really love about each other. Talking about your relationship will give her a sense of stability that she might not be able to find with anyone else. Create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you both know that you can be honest with each other without being laughed or yelled at. Discuss and fix problems in your relationship before they become too big to solve. You can say something like, "You know how to make me laugh, even when I'm in a bad mood. I really love that quality about you, Ashley." Alternatively, if you have an issue, say something such as, "Jacqueline, I feel upset when you ignore my text messages. It makes me wonder if I've done something wrong. Have I?" She's going to have her own challenges to deal with, such as fights with friends, problems with her boss at work, and stress when she's got a ton of things to juggle. Never let her doubt that you know she can handle it like a boss. You know that she's strong and smart enough to conquer all of her problems, so tell her that. Say something like, "I'm sorry that you're dealing with Becca's drama. It sounds like you're in a tough spot. But that's one of the really great things about you: you are such a loyal friend and will stick by her no matter what." When you talk to each other, don't just skim the surface and keep your conversations to things like what you did that day. It's not enough to know her favorite color and her middle name. You need to talk about things that really delve into who you are as people. Doing so creates a deep and lasting bond. Ask questions like: "What do you want your future to be like?" "Why do you avoid your sister's calls?" "How does it feel to be the soccer captain?" Setting aside time to be a couple is crucial for your relationship, no matter how long you've been together. She needs to feel like you're really there for her and that means being present as much as you can. For instance, plan a date for just the two of you, rather than your usual group of friends. If you're living together, you can go to bed half an hour early so that you two have time to talk and be intimate.

SUMMARY:
Maintain physical contact. Talk about your relationship. Show her how much you believe in her. Ask the right questions. Make sure there's time for just the two of you.
