Q: Do you think that daily low or high intensity cardio is a necessity for getting ripped?? Or once a week is good enough??

A: Daily cardio is almost certainly a bad idea if you are doing weight training on top of it. Your body needs rest. Taking at least one or two days a week off from all exercise is a good idea. I would recommend either 2-3 sessions of HIIT per week, building up to 15 minutes/session (search for HIIT on my site if you are not familiar with it) or 2-3 sessions of regular steady pace cardio of 20-40 minutes each.

Q: What all is included under green leafy vegatables and what is the method to healthily prepare them??

A: I use the term "green leafy vegetables" loosely since I simply want to encourage people to eat more vegetables in general. Any vegetable other than potatoes, yams, and corn should be eaten in virtually unlimited amounts by everyone -- they are that good for you and are light enough in calories that you become full sooner than you overeat. Potatoes, yams, and corn are not unhealthy, but are quite calorie-dense so they are easy to overeat and gain weight.
