What are some good ab workouts that will help me see results fast???
you can do this workout called the bicycle. it's basically like crunches with more movement. put your hands behind your head and sit up, but each time you come up, touch your right elbow with your left leg. your legs are going in a circular motion, like you're on a bike. do this again but with your left elbow on your right leg. that's a good workout.
then you can lay in front of the tv and try to keep your legs 6 inches off the ground. it's really hard, but the more pain in your abs, the better.
have fun!
I have DDR Mario Mix for gamecube, but it really sucks because it's not really like the original DDR. Is there any other DDR games for Nintendo Game Cube? And where do they sell them?
I'll rate.
I looked all over the internet and it seems that they do not sell DDR Gamecube games anymore. I found this website http://store.gameasylum.us/medapadfordd.html
There's all sorts of DDR mats and games for other video game devices. I suggest getting Playstation or Xbox to play DDR because they have endless amounts of games.
Sorry I could not give you more.
ok wat it ddr and can you tell me a website to do it or watever because i look at all the fitness questions and peole are like oh my god do ddr and i have no clue wat that is
i rate 5s
It's called Dance Dance Revolution. One guy lost 80 pounds playing 2 hours of it for a few months.
I love playing it because it's a video game and a work out. I recommend trying it. Once you get started you never want to quit.
If you're considering buying it, keep in mind that it can get pricey (you need a PlayStation or Xbox first of all) and you need to buy the game and mat seperately. I got my at Gamestop.
Have fun now =)
well i want to lose weight on my legs thighs especially and i want to do it quickly any ideas please help. my self esteem is lowering as we speak because people say im fat and i know i am but its killing me inside and i need help with losing the weight exercizing or i might just not eat. ill rate 5's.
It will be harder to lose fat on your legs because by exercising them, fat will turn to muscle. As a quick warning: muscle weighs more than fat.
Here is a simple site that can help you find your BMI (body mass index). It's not a spam, don't worry. This will tell you if you're underweight, healthy, overweight, obese >> http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/
The chart at the left will show you the catagories in which your number fits.
I have answered questions like this for other people because my mom is a doctor. Here are some tips.
-Lose the tasty cakes. Maybe tell your mom to stop buying junk food or you can buy something healthier to use as a substitute.
-Get a friend to join a slightly challenging sport (that you know will take a lot of running and exercise).
-BE PATIENT! You can't lose 20 pounds in one or two nights.
-A good (and easy) exercise is a jumping rope. Be confident and allow yourself to skip for at least 8-15 minutes. Try to aim for a higher time though.
-Don't dehydrate yourself. Commitment is good but don't push it that far. Use water -- no Gaterade, Powerade, etc.
-Don't give up! You can do it.
-You could possibly buy a workout video.
-There is a VERY healthy drink called Ensure. Personally, I don't think it tastes very good, but ohmehgawd, it's a miracle worker. It's not specially designed for weight loss, but I deeply recommend trying it. Who knows, you could really enjoy it.
-Swimming and treading is an awesome workout. Many muscles are being used when you swim (especially the legs).

x. Then reach forwards and try to clasp your right ankle. As you do so, push your upper body towards the floor
x. Hold the position for a count of 20
x. Repeat with left ankle

If you are considering a diet plan, ask some friends or another person on Advicenators who had a personal (and resulting) experience with the plan. There are many out there, but don't let the "Lose 20 Pounds in a Week" junk fool you.
Another place you can find thousands of exercises specifically for the thigh, go on AskJeeves.com (Ask.com)
Most importantly, don't let people intimidate you. Don't exercise out of irritation because you will never get anything done.
And trust me, once you complete some of these work outs, you will feel proud and good about accomplishing it.
Have fun, and ask anytime if you need details or more ideas!
How come whenever I run, I get a cramp like on my side.. usually on my right side.. I know they're not menstrual cramps, because they feel way different.. but idk, I've had them for a while, and I think it's a common problem among people.. but does ANYBODY know what they're caused by? And how to prevent them? I also get them when I walk alot sometimes.. but especially when I run on bumpy ground, at softball for example. Any input would be greatly appreciated, thanks! Oh websites are great too =] Thanks again! ♥
i agree with the other people who posted a comment about what they are. i have some advice on how you can treat them when you're walking or running (my moms a doctor).
if you get a side stitch clasp both of your hands on your head and try stretching. if it still hurts, you have to get some water or sit down.
hope this helps you out =]

-orange juice is one of the best ever. it is an extremely good beverage (and tasty too!!). my gramma used to say 'one glass of orange juice everyday will keep you alive forever'. but dont get your hopes up, im just saying =)
-bananas = barely any sugars, one of the healthiest fruits out there also.
-mcdonalds (mostly fries) is now loaded with more TRANSFAT
Besides crunches .. what are some good Ab workouts? Crunches dont seem to show any results
i agree, crunches take a long time for a good outcome. then again, theres no easy way to get abs. if you get bored of crunches try some of these things i learned from my sports:
sit on the ground when you're watching tv or something and put your legs about 8-10 inches off the ground. spread them apart and with your arms, reach out in front of you. its kind of hard to explain over a message but its a good workout!
this next thing is kind of like crunches but you feel more pain (a good thing, faster results). first you come up as you would doing a normal crunch, but this time bring your knees to your chest and when you unfold, straighten your legs out but keep them off the ground. thats a good workout without using equipment.
