Celebrating Chavez

Team hopes to perfect aircraft Engineering students will compete in June MATTHEW MEDINA Daily Titan

“When someone comes in, it’s the energy, the colors around the wall … ” Vu said. “We appeal to everybody … It’s a place for friends and family.” The owners take pride in their service and speed in preparing orders, but also the customers’ experience. “I think they serve amazing products and offer great customer service,” said Lan Pham, a Tastea fan and CSUF alumnus. “They are innovative and the background of the owners exemplify the American dream … Ted and Scott are savvy entrepreneurs who are smart and brave enough to take chances with their business endeavors. It has obviously paid off.”

A team of mechanical engineering students are working on a plane so good that it will fly itself … literally. The 13 students have designed an unmanned air vehicle (UAV) that will use an onboard camera and image recognition software to surveil an area, just like drones used by the military and law enforcement. In its second year of competition, the team hopes to build their program so it will one day match the success of their colleagues who work on the storied Titan Formula SAE race cars. Despite their humble beginnings and the issues they have had so far, the mechanical engineers hope that as they complete their senior project, they can establish partnerships with local manufacturers and suppliers, then retune procedures to help future Cal State Fullerton students improve upon their work. “Considering that there were four or five people on the team, all mechanical engineers, they got pretty far,” said team member James Wang, 26. The CSUF team finished in the top 20 at the Student Unmanned Air Systems Competition last year. The goal is to win competitions that test UAVs for proficient automated flight, image recognition and other factors. “We’re basically trying to develop it into a legacy program like the (Formula SAE) team has over there,” said team member Adam Nguyen. “We have new faculty coming in who’s going to help us … so we’re hoping to get it built up maybe in three, four years.” One of the main tests for student UAVs that compete with one another is image recognition. The team is tasked with flying the UAV within a flight area, finding an object marked with something such as a letter and ensuring that their software correctly interprets that image when the UAV sends its signal back to the ground. “You’re going to have a live feed of images from your camera down to a computer on the ground,” Wang said. “And so we’re going to have a constant data feed, and as soon as we get an image, we want a software package on the laptop that will process that.” Mastering that image recognition software has been difficult because of the computer science expertise required, since all of the current team members are mechanical engineering majors.

Sorority fundraiser brings in thousands Zeta Tau Alpha hosts Monte Carlo night, raises about $25,000 ASHLEY RUIZ For the Daily Titan

Eleven years ago, on her daughter’s fifth birthday, Susanne Gaskins went to the doctor for a routine mammogram. To her surprise, she received news that she had three lumps in her left breast. The doctor told her having two lumpectomies— surgeries to remove the tumors—would leave her with one breast and she would have a 40 to 50 percent chance of developing cancer in it. With her five-year-old daughter in mind, she decided to do a double mastectomy. “The decision, in many ways, made itself. It was

really easy on the one hand and incredibly difficult to go through with it on the other,” Gaskins said. On Saturday, Susanne Gaskins, history lecturer at Cal State Fullerton, spoke at Monte Carlo night, an annual breast cancer awareness fundraiser hosted by the Cal State Fullerton Theta Phi chapter of the Zeta Tau Alpha sorority. An estimated $25,000 was raised for the event on Saturday. The black-tie event featured faux gambling tables, a jazz band, appetizers, raffles and silent auctions. Tickets cost $45 and all attendees were given $300 in fake gambling money, which could be exchanged for raffle tickets at the end of the night. SEE FUNDRAISER, 6

ASHLEY RUIZ / For the Daily Titan Attendees of Zeta Tau Alpha’s annual Monte Carlo fundraiser bid on silent auction items and mingled with breast cancer survivors.

While some college students spend most of their time hanging out with friends, partying or studying, Ted Vu and Scott Nguyen started their own business. At the time, a then 22-year-old Vu and 23-year-old Nguyen were attending Cal State Fullerton full time. The pair’s business, Tastea, began in a garage when Vu and Nguyen made drinks for their friends and co-workers to enjoy during lunch hour. Enduring a lot of sacrifices with their new business, education was

something they did not have to forgo. Both are grateful that they completed school and put a high value of education into their business. “When you’re going to school and taking these classes, you’re like ‘When am I ever going to use it?’” Vu said. “As we are going through this business, day-to-day stuff, planning for the future, it’s actually ingrained in your mind and you are using it and applying it without even realizing it.” The pair came up with the idea of Tastea as the boba and “asian-flair” businesses began to rise in popularity. Vu and Nguyen took what they learned from competitors and decided they could make this business their own through creativity and exceptional customer service and experience.

“We’re still actively looking for a computer science major who can help us out with that,” Wang said. “We’re trying to look at stuff ourselves, but we don’t have the background, so it’s taking us much longer than we’d like.” Because computer science majors are not required to partake in an engineering project of this nature, finding team members who are willing to commit to such a project has been difficult. “Mostly, it’s by word of mouth,” Wang said regarding recruitment. “If any of our friends know any computer engineers who want to take on this kind of project, we usually let them know.” Keeping the UAV flying properly within designated flight areas is also a problem. “If we’ve exited the flight location … once we hit outside, we’re disqualified,” said team member Alexander Bautista.

Right now, the team is in the process of constructing the main wing, which is being made of carbon fiber. Members are using SolidWorks to design the aircraft on computers and creating practice models with foam. Teams will also test their UAVs by dropping a package as closely to a targeted area as possible. The CSUF student team plans to enter their UAV in the Student Unmanned Air Systems Competition in June to establish a tradition of success.

Model UN team readies for New York City Students represent Algeria in meeting of global powers KYLE NAULT Daily Titan

The Cal State Fullerton Model United Nations delegation will address political issues often found at the forefront of conflict in the world next month at the National Model United Nations Conference (NMUNC) in New York City. The conference, held in a city that hosts actual United Nations events, marks the fourth delegation event for CSUF’s team this semester, and allows participants to gain firsthand experience on how to handle the inner workings of the actual 193-member council. “It is a global conference,” said Choudhury Shamim, Ph.D., the faculty adviser of the club. “I’ve being going there since 1990 to New York, this is 2014. It has changed in a sense that it has become more global … Now about 55 percent of the delegates come from the rest of the world.” Shamim, a political science professor on campus, has been involved

their colleagues and other counterparts. At the congregation, awards are given for Outstanding Delegation, Distinguished Delegation and Honorable Mention. These can be likened to gold, silver and bronze medals, respectively. At CSUF, the Model United Nations team has been recognized for the past 11 out of 13 years. For team member and fellow lead delegate Marian Aftab, the primary goal is to continue this trend. “Our goal is to win a bronze or a gold, that’s where we want to place at,” she said. “We also want to help open up the new group to all the other issues that are going on around the world and see what else is out there.” Aftab said the conference is also a way for the entire group to better understand what is going on in the world around them to bring about change. “You meet a lot of people who are really high achieving, so it really pushes you to reach that level as well,” she said. The CSUF Model UN team will participate in the NMUNC as part of the latter conference, Conference B, which will take place from April 13 to April 17.

Data suggests missing plane fell in ocean Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak announced Monday in a statement that Malaysian Flight MH370 went down in the southern Indian Ocean, according to the Washington Post. The announcement crushed family members’ hopes that the plane might be found after its unexplained diversion from its flight path more than two weeks ago. New information surfaced from satellite data, which shows the Boeing 777 plane’s last location in the middle of the Indian Ocean, a remote area with no nearby landing sites. The Malaysian Airlines plane, which was carrying 239 passengers and crew members, has been missing since March 8. - CECILY MEZA

Club takes sword fights to beach SoCal Swordfight stresses historically accurate combat MATTHEW MEDINA Daily Titan

Knights clad in armor and wielding all manner of weapons from the medieval era will siege Huntington Beach this weekend. The occasion will celebrate medieval fighting disciplines from Europe and beyond, complete with training and sparring sessions. Historic European martial arts (HEMA) enthusiasts, including the Cal State Fullerton Medieval Swordsmanship Club, will celebrate their craft at the SoCal Swordfight convention. Organizers hope to add to the 136 participants who took part in the festivities last year. RJ McKeehan, a computer science major and officer of the Medieval Swordsmanship Club, estimated about 160 to 170 people will attend this year’s event, and at least 15 of them will be from CSUF. Swordsmanship is not what you see in the movies, said Myles Cupp, a graduate student studying electrical engineering and the president of the Medieval Swordsmanship Club, which is affiliated with Kron Martial Arts. Sword fights that would normally be quick are slowed to a lumbering crawl on screen for dramatic effect. “People are certainly surprised when they see just how the longsword is used,” Cupp said. “They expect them to be clumsy, they expect them to be heavy … but then when people see the actual historical techniques used, they find out that the fighting is actually rather fast, it’s decisive, and you also see a lot of finesse and delicacy used in these techniques to execute them well.” Organizers emphasized that the convention

is accessible and follows strict safety guidelines. “What we’re doing is definitely very safe, and we’re not expecting any injuries at the event,” said RJ McKeehan, a computer science major and officer of the Medieval Swordsmanship Club. “I want to see knowledge spread.” One of the more obscure weapons on offer at this year’s convention is the macuahuitl, a club used by the Aztecs to resist invasion from Spanish conquistadors. Instructor Roberto Martinez-Loyo will fly to the event from Mexico City to train and educate others regarding the macuahuitl. “Roberto, since he’s lived in Mexico, he does a lot of research on how it was used, he tries to get his hands on historical replicas, and he’s teaching a class on that,” Cupp said. “So anybody who has an ancestral background tracing back to the Aztecs, which a lot of people living in Southern California and Mexico do, it can be interesting to them just from a heritage point of view.” Many HEMA events have a tradition of including an extra day of informal practice sessions and festivities for those who are in the area or stay for a longer period of time due to travel schedules, and SoCal Swordfight is no exception. “Traditionally, at events, those types of things have happened, but they’re never advertised,” Cupp said. “So we want to buck that trend and say ‘look, this is what happens.’ We’re bringing it to everyone’s attention so everybody can benefit from it.” SoCal Swordfight will last Friday to Sunday, not including the additional day of unofficial events. Tickets for SoCal Swordfight are $85 for the full three days, $45 for one day and $12 for parents and other spectators who want to observe the event. Some training sessions are full, but tickets will be sold at the door.

Former labor leader commemorates Cesar Chavez Center, said she believes the hard work is still being done by Huerta but also needs to be done by others.

Dolores Huerta calls on attendees to be unified in activism KYLE NAULT Daily Titan

“Who’s got the power?” asked the matronly woman on stage. “We got the power!” the audience answered back. “What kind of power?” “People power!” Dolores Huerta, the co-founder of the United Farm Workers (UFW) told her story Monday in a keynote speech that marked the end of a day of festivities hosted by the Chicano and Chicana Studies Department. “If we don’t change pace, if we don’t get out there and become active, then nothing is going to change,” Huerta told an audience of about 200 people. Now at 83 years old, the labor organizer still spends much of her time traveling and delivering speeches across the United States trying to further motivate people to create an improved world to live in. Huerta provided listeners with several different messages, including advocating women’s rights and calling for reforms to the current education system.

“If we don’t change pace, if we don’t get out there and become active, then nothing is going to change.” DOLORES HUERTA UFW Co-founder

MARIAH CARRILLO / Daily Titan Dolores Huerta, the co-founder of the United Farm Workers, touched on feminism, activism in the modern age and labor leader Cesar Chavez’s legacy Monday in the Titan Student Union Pavilions.

“One of her messages is that our work is not done as a community, and we can no longer stay quiet,” said Janette Hyder, the adviser to MEChA at Cal State Fullerton. “We have to be empowered, and we have to organize.” Students in attendance agreed with the message that they need to be organized to advocate for economic and social justice. “There’s two points that I liked about her presentation. One was teaching men the equality between women and men … and how to organize, without

organizing, we can’t do anything. We have to get together, know our struggles in order to move upon and actually come to a conclusion and figure out a solution to an issue,” Natalie Magana said. Magana, a child adolescent development and Chicano and Chicana studies double major, cited Huerta’s work in helping women as why she looks up Huerta for her activist work. Huerta’s 40 years of activism heroics have been recognized alongside the accomplishments of her

colleague Cesar Chavez, the late co-founder of the UFW. With Chavez’s birthday next week, Huerta urged the crowd to get to the theater and see Cesar Chavez, a drama depicting the labor leader’s life that will hit the box office on Friday. “The Latinos and immigrants of other countries are still doing the hard work,” Huerta said. “Promise me that you will go see the movie.” Elizabeth A. Suarez, Ph.D., the coordinator of the Chicano Resource

“Even though Cesar Chavez is gone and even though she’s one person still fighting for the cause, she’s trying to tell us that we need to as educated citizens … we need to educate the future,” she said. The best way to educate future generations is to be involved, she said. Activism can take shape in any form whether it comes from scholarly research about social issues or educating the community, she said. “As Cal State Fullerton Students, as Cal State faculty, as Cal State Fullerton administrators, we all need to be taking up this cause,” Suarez said. The CSUF campus will be closed on March 31 in recognition of Cesar Chavez Day.

The job of a journalist is to dig

MICHAEL CHEN Daily Titan

Reporters should not be limited in their pursuit of the truth In this new age of technology, journalists are able to access a multitude of channels for information and are able to deliver stories to the public like never before. Journalists can pull up areas of residence on an individual, they can look up addresses and phone numbers with a few clicks of the mouse and even find a picture of the individual on social media. As technology advances, so will the quality of reporting. The search for information should not be impeded because of new technology. It should be encouraged to look deeper into the story the journalist is reporting on. A Newsweek reporter, Leah McGrath Goodman, recently wrote an article attempting to put a face to the founder of the virtual currency known as Bitcoin. She used resources that were at her disposal in order to complete her story. “I’d come here to try to find out more about Nakamoto and his humble life,” Goodman said. “It seemed ludicrous that the man credited with inventing Bitcoin—the world’s most wildly successful digital currency, with transactions of nearly $500 million a day at its peak—would retreat to Los Angeles’s San Gabriel foothills, hole up

in the family home and leave his estimated $400 million of Bitcoin riches untouched.” Some questioned

whether or not there was a reason to look for the Bitcoin founder. The man Goodman said was the Bitcoin founder denied

her allegations and said it wasn’t him. Many people came out to defend the man, saying the reporter put this

man out in the public light without knowing for sure that he was the right man. As a journalist, Goodman is not breaking any laws and is not out to hurt anybody. She is executing her rights as a journalist and is trying to shed light on a gray area of society. In this case the public has yet to find out who the inventor of Bitcoin is, and Goodman set out to find out. Digging for information is a dirty job but someone has to do it. Journalists are expected to look for information in places that society typically overlooks. This, however, does have its drawbacks as society view journalists as nosey, or prying for information. The Society of Professional Journalists created a code of ethics that explains looking for information as “(giving) voice to the voiceless; official and unofficial sources of information can be equally valid. The public is entitled to as much information as possible on sources’ reliability.” Giving a voice to the voiceless is exactly what a journalist is supposed to do. There is no point to where journalists should stop digging for information because in doing so, they would be undermining their own job and doing society a disservice. This should not stop any journalist from continuing to search. It is the job of the journalist to provide news for the public and to do their homework properly. To limit the reach journalists have, limits their ability to do their job.

Talk shows aren’t for presidents KAYLI CRAIG Daily Titan

Obama’s method of gaining support is ruining his credibility The average American’s life is so intertwined with entertainment, that even the president of the United States of America has been using it as a means for support for his policies. When President Barack Obama began his campaign for the 2008 presidency, the younger generation helped him pull in a high number votes, with 66 percent of 18-to-29year-olds supporting his campaign. Since his first election Obama has continued to seek the attention of his supporters, using unorthodox methods that are not suitable for the commander in chief. Obama has appeared on a handful of talk shows throughout his two terms of presidency. Some of his appearances were on the The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The View, The Oprah Winfrey Show and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. He most recently appeared on Between Two Ferns, an Internet talk show hosted by Zach Galifianakis, a star of the popular comedy The Hangover. The president answered Galifianakis’ questions about his policies and also joked around about the idea of a third term. The latest about Obama’s policies are heard through the news on television or radios, but how many Americans are using those avenues as a source of news, and not entertainment? How many are listening to hear what the president is doing, and how many actually care? Obama’s wise and strategic efforts to use talk shows as a new and different venue to capture the attention of viewers’ who may not otherwise catch the news are admirable. Although he is trying to keep up with the changing times and appeal to the people, talk shows are an inappropriate venue for the president of the United States. Obama argues that he is trying to break out of an “artificial” bubble and avoid being a “Washington stiff.” While some may applaud Obama for being a man of the people, what was accomplished from his appearance on these talk shows? Little, if anything. Those that follow politics and the president’s policies aren’t going to be tuning in to hear him on Jimmy Fallon, they’re going to head to the 5 o’clock news. Talk shows are for celebrities and stars, and that is not something that Obama is, despite some people’s beliefs. The president has the highest level of authority within America and by appearing on talk shows, it makes the president seem less of a leader, and more of a friend. In turn, that makes him seem less credible. As a leader of the United States, citizens expect a the president to adhere to one standard—one of respect and prestige.

Fred Phelps was the founder of the Westboro Baptist Church, a church known for spewing hate.

Overlook Phelps’ death ASHLEN DOMINGUEZ Daily Titan

The Westboro Baptist Church was known to stir controversy If anyone deserves to have his or her death celebrated, it would be Fred Phelps. The founder and leader of the infamous Westboro Baptist Church (WBC) has built a reputation for the homophobic church by picketing the funerals of dead soldiers and other people who they deem sinners. They became “the most hated family in America” when members of their congregation began carrying signs that said things like “God hates fags” and “Thank God for dead soldiers” just a few feet away from where families mourned the deaths of their loved ones. Their reasoning was

that God hates homosexuals and punishes those who accept them, including the soldiers who fight for America. A country destined for ruin because of its tolerance to homosexuality. Still, something about rejoicing over Phelps’ death feels wrong. In fact, it feels a lot like what he did. Feeling sympathy for him or his family is difficult, but feeling hatred toward him would be doing the very thing that he would preach. Even though the family that mourns for him is the same family that makes up the majority of his congregation, it is not reason enough to picket and protest in the name of justice. Phelps enjoyed conflict and so did his congregation. They enjoyed when people showed up to protest. They were always looking for a reaction. To Phelps, that kind of outrage was proof that he was doing something holy. Why give him the satisfaction?

FREELANCE WRITERS

Letters may be sent to editorinchief@dailytitan.com

Phelps was a man filled with hate. He preached about sinners that were doomed because of their acceptance of homophobia and how anyone not baptized by his church was fated to an afterlife in hell. But who was he to twist the words of the Bible? He chose to interpret the words in his own way and ignore the messages of love and kindness. People live their lives as they see fit, and the legacy they leave behind says something about their character. In Phelps’ case, he leaves behind something that is sure to cause even more people pain. WBC members have gone out of their way to bring suffering to thousands of people without any remorse. Phelps taught them those ways, and the God he preached about so often will be the one to judge him. No one knows what’s to become of the church now. It seems unlikely that they’ll go away peacefully, especially after thriving off

the court cases they won after being sued. Still, one can hope. This world is filled with places where prejudice and hate is the norm, but that doesn’t mean that it’s something that needs to be taught. Church and religion are things that people should find comfort in. They should be used to grow personally and spiritually. What WBC does is wrong. What they teach is wrong. At the end of the day though, they’re entitled to their own opinions. The best that people can do is ignore them and not give them the fuel to fan a flame. Telling people to celebrate Phelps’ death would be wrong, considering he would have relished in the fact people were perpetuating more hate because of him. In this case, indifference seems like the best kind of revenge. It would have been harder for him to deal with. The world is a better place without him and he is better off forgotten.

Raising for a cure FUNDRAISER Continued from PAGE 1

CHRISTINA NGUYEN / Daily Titan Michael Cuvin, a fourth year computer science major, became curious about electronics after setting up a family wireless network. He currently interns at Edwards Lifesciences, a medical technology company. He hopes to pursue a career in information security.

Major Spotlight COMPUTER SCIENCE

A Cal State Fullerton student’s curiosity for electronics influences his career choice CHRISTINA NGUYEN Daily Titan

When someone is having technical difficulties, Michael Cuvin is the “go to” guy. However, the fourth year computer science major is good at more than working on electronics and computers. Cuvin also has a knack for guiding a group and getting the job done. Kevin Galvan, a fifth year computer science major, who has worked closely with Cuvin on a few class projects, said he has a knack for leading and getting everyone to work together. “(Cuvin’s) best quality has to be that he can lead a team, smoothly without any real problems,” Galvan said. Cuvin’s interest in computers began at a young age when he set up his family’s wireless network while he was in the fifth grade. His curiosity about electronics continued to grow in high school when his football coach at the time, who was also a “techie,” encouraged him to go into the field. From there, Cuvin found that he enjoyed the challenge of being able to solve a problem on his machine, or figuring out the coding or computer language. Cuvin’s high school football coach, who held an information technology position at the time, told him about the different possibilities with computer science.

All proceeds went to the ZTA Foundation, which divides money between breast cancer awareness foundations such as Susan G. Komen and Yoplait’s “Save Lids to Save Lives,” education programs and academic scholarships. As a way to show support for the sorority’s philanthropy, breast cancer awareness, each member sold a certain amount of tickets for the event, said Tasha Diaz, the ZTA fundraising and member advisor. Members also contributed either monetary donations or auction and raff le prizes through friends, family and the community, Diaz said. The event also had 40 auction gift baskets and 40 raff le baskets, said Shelby Wyatt, 22, president of ZTA. Gift basket options included items such as a Disneyland ticket, wine basket with wine tasting tickets, Los Angeles Kings tickets and Angels tickets. The first Monte Carlo fundraiser took place in 2002 at the Coyote Hills

Golf Course in Fullerton, said Mia Pierantozzi, a ‘02 ZTA alumna and attendee of the event on Saturday. Every year, the event features a guest speaker to shed light on breast cancer and prevention. About one in eight women will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime and about 85 percent of cases occur in women who have no family history of breast cancer, according to the BreastCancer.org website. However, the disease is not limited to women; 10 percent of breast cancer cases occur in men. Gaskins urged both men and women to have yearly mammograms to catch the disease early, when spreading is most preventable. “I was incredibly lucky that my cancer was caught very early and my chances of survival were very good,” Gaskins said. “I’m more than willing to talk to anybody about breast cancer awareness, research, fundraising, prevention … because if just one person … ends up getting a mammogram and her life or his life is saved because of my story, then it’s worth it.”

Combining the power of art and business BUSINESS Continued from PAGE 1

Vu and Nguyen were previous classmates at Fountain Valley High School, but it was in college where they paired up and began chatting and toying with the idea of starting Tastea. Vu studied business administration with a focus in finance and Nguyen studied arts, making the pair a powerful team. “I think we compliment each really other well … ” Nguyen said. After a successful weekend at Tết (the Vietnamese-take on the Chinese New Year Festival), Vu and Nguyen knew that Tastea would be a successful business. Tastea opened its doors first in Garden Grove on Sept. 15, 2001, just a few days after 9/11. Both were nervous about what the outcome would be after such a tragic event, but their opening weekend proved to be successful. Prior to social media, Tastea was supported by mostly friends and family. “We grew the company traditionally, word of mouth, no advertisements … It’s all word of mouth, friends and family,” Nguyen said. “We grew organically.” In the last six months, the

owners have been focusing their energy on establishing their social media presence. Although social media is a great way to engage customers and read positive reviews, they also want to know where there are areas for improvement. The pair are enjoying the fun perks of social media by inviting their fans to come out and taste test through Instagram and Facebook. Tastea currently has two locations, one in Garden Grove and the other in Rowland Heights. A third store is set to open in Costa Mesa, possibly in April of this year. Vu and Nguyen have plans to begin franchising across the nation and possibly go international. “We want every store we open, no matter where it is, we want our customers’ experience to be the same,” Vu said. Although there are many other drink establishments out there, Tastea has a unique twist on its business. “I always say, ‘Imagine– Take Jamba Juice and Starbucks, and they had a kid who grew up in Asia, that would be us,’” Vu said. “We bring the vibrant colors of the Jamba Juice and the smoothies and we bring that personal experience from Starbucks.”

FITNESS Workout trends to avoid PAGE 8

MARCH 25, 2014

THE DAILY TITAN

TUESDAY

Sports drinks are one item to avoid to increase your fitness results JOSEPH ANDERSON Daily Titan

It’s common knowledge that working out is an excellent way to keep both the mind and body healthy, but many people are unaware of how to get the maximum results from their workouts. Most people believe that running on a treadmill or elliptical machine is the best way to burn calories. While it does help burn some fat from the body, it’s actually not as effective as taking part in a strength workout. Strength training is a more effective way to get your heart rate up, burn calories and develop lean muscle mass, according to Huffington Post. Building muscle means that those muscles have the ability to work throughout the day, which burns calories even if you aren’t working out. Taking too much time in between workouts can also lead to less satisfying results. Instead of spending an hour working out at a moderate pace, it’s actually more efficient to make your workouts more intense in a shorter period of time. Breaks between workouts should be no longer than 30 seconds, to make the heart beat faster and the fat to burn off more quickly. Sports drinks are not as beneficial for the body as they sometimes appear. These drinks are often loaded with calories and sugar that give a boost, but also take away from the physical results. Heritage Integrative Healthcare states many sports drinks contain up to two-thirds the sugar of sodas while also containing artificial ingredients that adversely affect one’s health. Sugar after exercise actually increases your energy in the long run, as your pancreas and other glands have to balance out the toxicity in your bloodstream. If that wasn’t reason enough, sports drinks also contain large amounts of various processed salts, as opposed to the natural salt the body needs.

MARIAH CARRILLO / Daily Titan Various energy drinks such as Red Bull may seem to give you a burst of energy, but they actually take away from your ability to stay hydrated while working out. Drinking water is still the best option to fuel your body during fitness activities, since it does not contain processed ingredients that adversely affect the body.

An easy solution to this would be to just add a pinch of natural sea salt to water, giving the body exactly what it needs to sweat properly during a workout. One alternative to sports drinks that Heritage Integrative Healthcare recommends is coconut water. This beverage is actually one of the highest sources of electrolytes known to man, which can help hydrate in a much healthier way than traditional sports drinks. A tip Huffington Post offers for

workouts is to avoid doing the same routines over and over, because the body will get used to it and make it easier for you. While you think your body is getting stronger, it is actually just getting used to the motions and therefore causing you to “cheat” in your workout. Changing your workouts daily will actually fool the body into working harder. It also serves as an excellent way to avoid boredom with the same routine every day. Having a gym partner is also

an excellent way to make sure your fitness goals are on track, as you will be held more accountable if someone is with you. FitDay.com said having a workout partner makes the process go by quickly, since you won’t be tempted to watch the clock and feel time drag by. Being able to talk with a partner makes the physical activity more enjoyable, while making it go by quicker. Less people are willing to cancel a workout when they have a partner who is counting on them, according to FitDay.com. After

a long day of work, it can be difficult to convince yourself that gym time is necessary. However, if you know there is someone relying on you to go with them, it is more difficult to say no. Working out is a wonderful way to stay in shape, but there are certain ways to maximize your results while not spending hours of precious time each day. Knowing what to avoid is just as important as being consistent with workouts, so always have a plan before you start a new fitness regimen.

Setting pace to match a playlist improves workout Songs between 120 and 140 beats per minute are optimal TAMEEM SERAJ Daily Titan

Working out can be a grueling task, so exercisers look to find ways to distract their mind through the parts of their routine that burn the most. One of most common escapes exercisers turn to is throwing on their Beats headphones and engulfing themselves in music. Music not only blocks out distractions, but it can have a physiological effect on people as well. Studies done at the University of Missouri have indicated that upbeat music can improve your mood, and it’s those songs that will often be found on gym playlists. Songs between 120 and 140 beats per minute are the most effective for workouts, according to Huffington Post. Having a workout buddy can be a beneficial means for motivation, but if you find yourself alone at the gym, music is the next best tactic. Plus, music can put you in the zone during a cardio workout and make you forget about the pain you are feeling, which keeps you going. If you are just starting to create a workout playlist, or want to update an old

one, a good place to start is a subscription to Run Hundred. If you subscribe to Run Hundred, you will be sent a list of top-10 workout songs for that month for free. The list is generated from users voting on what songs they would like to work out to. The songs will have a powerful combination of a fast pace and its relevancy in pop culture. The trick to having an effective workout with your music is to exercise in tempo with the songs. The March Run Hundred list includes the popular new song “#selfie” by The Chainsmokers, which is 128 beats per minute. The slowest song on the list is Jason Derulo and 2 Chainz’s “Talk Dirty” with 101 beats per minute and the fastest is “The Walker” by Fitz and The Tantrums at a pace of 132 beats per minute. In addition to the playlist of the month, Run Hundred has many other playlists that can be categorized by genre, decade or tempo. Spotify, a popular music database, can be tuned in to listen to different playlists for different occasions. The “Spotify Ultimate Workout Playlist 2014” has 20 songs and includes uplifting tracks such as the infectious “Happy” by Pharrell Williams and the Grammy Award winning

“Royals” by Lorde. Others to make the list include Katy Perry’s “Roar,” Ellie Goulding’s “Burn” and last summer’s blockbuster hit “Get Lucky” by Daft Punk. When you are working on cardio at the gym, it is beneficial to practice interval training. Interval training increases your metabolism, burns fat and is more efficient than jogging at a slow pace for a longer period of time. Shape.com compiled a list of songs that alternate from 80 beats per minute to 120 beats per minute to fit the up-and-down cycle of a cardio interval training session. The 80 beats per minute songs include “Ho Hey” by The Lumineers, “We Can’t Stop” by Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry’s “Wide Awake,” Lana Del Rey’s “Off to the Races” and “Perfume” by Britney Spears. The 120 beats per minute songs on the list include Sean Paul’s “The Other Side of Love,” the Captain Cuts remix of Ellie Goulding’s “Lights,” “As We Enter” by Damian Marley and Nas, “Tonight is the Night” by Outasight and “Alors on Danse” by the collaboration of Kanye West, Stromae and Wilbere Forte. So next time you hit the gym, remember to pack your headphones so you can plug in while you work out and enhance your exercise routine.
