This coming summer i would be working on my cardiovascular fitness and muscle strength. i would be running five times at week and work on my muscular strength about three times at week. I want to improve my cardiovascular fitness because I want to have a healthy hearth and lungs. I also want to improve my muscular strength because i want to grow stronger and keep on doing many things in my old age.
