Take off the straps/gloves/chalk when lifting, which will work on your forearms and thereby increasing your grip strength. A stronger grip will ultimately help your strength in everything else. You can’t lift what you can’t hold, right?

Eat a lot of fish! The essential fatty acids in fish, like Omega 3's, fight muscle inflammation in the body and can promote lean muscle mass. Additionally, fish helps the body make glycogen, which in turn could provide you with a tremendous amount of energy when hitting the gym.

When running uphill, you should prevent your body from slouching and looking down. Instead, keep your head up and your eyes focused on the top of the hill. This will open your airways and make it easier to breathe, allowing for more oxygen to your blood, and making it easier to run at a faster pace. 

Japanese researchers found that a hike in the woods may help boost your immunity. According to the study, men who walked through a forest for a total of six hours over two days had a 46 percent increase of cells that naturally kill viruses that invade your body.

A study in the Journal of Applied Physiology found that 8 weeks of weight training improved experienced runners’ 5K times by up to 30 seconds.

If doing a high number of reps, you should envision getting it up one rep at a time. Don't look at the ultimate number, but rather break it up into mini-sets, pause for a couple of seconds and repeat. For instance, in a set of 50 reps, think of it as 5 sets of 10 with a 2 to 3 second pause in between each set. This might make it seem easier to accomplish and therefore, if you apply this method to all your sets, you could probably do more reps than you initially thought you could in any exercise!
