If you are training for a 40-mile race will running approximately 5 miles a day be good training?
If you have any interest in running 40 miles, you will need to develop minimum of a 1 year program to develop the strength and allow your body to adapt to that stress. Do you currently run? If so, how much? Have you ever completed a 10k, half marathon or full marathon? In addition to your training program, you will need to get your nutrition and recovery dialed in too.
Does lifting weights make you gain weight?
It's possible to go from 110 to 220 in 4 years without roids. Just because some people only gain 30 in 13 years doesn't mean they should speak badly of other people just because they are a different body type. I personally have went from 160 to 245 in almost 6 years without taking anything stronger than creatine. I have picked up a little higher BF% but that goes with taking in several calories a day in order to bulk and get stronger. I'm not looking to compete in body building, maybe powerlifting though. The point of what I'm saying is that everyones body is different so you should just do your best, push yourself and you'll achieve your potential.
What can be some good ways to build muscle and burn fat?
There are various steps involved in the muscle building and fat burning process, and both of these supplement each other really well together. If you do not have muscles, loosing fat will be very slow. If you do not lose fat, your muscles will not be visible enough. So here a few important steps you need to take:
Workout Schedule: Make a proper schedule for what exercises and timings you are going to follow. Sit down with a weekly calendar and determine how many days of the week you are willing to exercise.
Decide the types of exercises: Decide what specific type of exercise you want to engage in. For instance, cardiovascular exercise will help you lose fat, whereas lifting weights will build muscle.
Cardio Vascular Workout layout: A. Incorporate 30-minute exercise sessions into your schedule. Thirty minutes of daily exercise is adequate for most people. B. Decide on a form of cardiovascular exercise for a specific day of the week. Using a treadmill or stair-climbing machine, jogging, biking, and swimming are all effective forms of cardiovascular exercise. C. Warm up and actively stretch for 5 minutes before beginning any activity. D. Exercise at a moderate pace for 20 minutes. E. Follow with a 5-minute cool down. F. Change your schedule to accommodate longer exercise periods when appropriate.
Weight lifting Workout layout: A. Begin by performing total body workouts aimed at conditioning every major muscle group (upper body, lower body and back). Balanced development is extremely important. B. Split your workouts as you become a more experienced lifter. This will enable you to better concentrate on specific muscle groups and areas. A common split that targets every major muscle group is: chest and triceps, back and biceps, shoulder and legs. C. Rest your muscles between sessions. Allow each muscle group at least one day of rest between sessions. Your muscles can't grow unless they have time to rest and heal. D. Stick to your workout schedule.
Eating healthy food: Do not eat deep fried foods or white rice, white bread and chemically sweetened foods. Try to minimize processed and canned foods. Include natural and fresh foods, such as fresh meat, fish, nuts, seeds, vegetable, fruits, eggs and milk into your daily diet. This should build muscle and and help to burn fat in minimum time, giving you a stronger and better physique.
Follow the suggestions on this page for at least a month to see the results. These results will keep you motivated to work out further and achieve a better body.
How do you cycle your whey protein?
You don't cycle protein.

How do you care for bench vice?
To take care of a bench vise you should keep it closed when not in use as this will keep the inner shaft from getting dirty and clogging the threads in your main adjustment rod. Also you should keep a thin layer of grease on the sliding components and use a rag or towel to wipe down the bench vise from time to time with a cleaner like brake cleaner or other solvent that does not leave residue. That's about it.

Is it best to take a day to rest after weight lifting?
Yes, you should know that. People needs a rest after a heavy work out. If you don't do that so, you'll have fatigue and you'll be stressed out. Aside from rest, you need to eat foods that are good for you, like, low calorie but high protein foods. Then drink fruit juices and have a healthy life style.
