Cardio day - some big guys can still run

Today was mainly a cardio day.  I like to interval train meaning I walk for a couple minutes then I run for 30 sec - 1 min at a time.  I find that if I run any more than that, I lose weight and mass and then have to work hard to get it back.  When I do run, I like to do it fast to focus on fast-twitch muscles as too much walking will slow you down.  I spent about an hour on the treadmill and then hit some light weights afterwards, including something I'll film next week - hip thrusts with rubber bands which is great for hip drive.  Here is a quick video of me proving to posterity that I could still run when I cracked 300 lbs:



And here is the light workout I did after focusing on high reps:
