friend and diet
Posted Friday August 17 2007, 10:27 am
for the past few weeks I have been eating great, exercising a TON and losing weight! But whenever I hang out at my friend's house, I eat a crazy amount of food! How can I control myself when I'm around all of that sugary junkfood?

Flexibility

I'm not flexible at ALL and I really need to gain some flexibility.
Question is, how?
Please don't say yoga, I've tried it before and it's incredibly boring.

Treadmills
Posted Thursday August 16 2007, 11:54 pm
I'm trying to improve my mile time by running on the treadmill and increasing the speed obviously. I know that I can run the mile in 9:30 secs. I dont know if that's my best, but it's the only time I know, so I'm wondering what speed you think I should put the treadmill on to obtain that time or somewhere around there (9:15-9:45 range). also, how do you know? is there like a button where you can see which speed will run the mile in that time. haha idts, but maybe. lol
thanks so much :)

i can't believe it
Posted Wednesday August 15 2007, 10:06 pm
about two weeks ago I weighed 134 pounds. I wanted to lose some pounds and get fit so for about a week I ate 1000-1200 calories a day and worked out very heavily. at the end of the week was at 129, and had also lost 1% body fat! I was really excited so I continued doing that. This past week I have been eating about the same. I have also been exercising, except that instead of doing the elyptical machine, I have been running a lot. I've run 6 miles a day three times this past week!
I got on the scale tonight and I was 135 and my body fat had increased.
I was so excited about losing weight last week! what am I doing wrong, this just doesn't make sense! I have been exercising so much this week, biking, running, crunches.

get into shape
Posted Wednesday August 15 2007, 9:45 pm
so school is almost starting and i want to get into better shape. im going to be very busy because i am in the marching band and that is like 24/7 so i dont have a huge option. i want to tone up my stomach...ALOT. and my legs just a tad. im not sure if i have time to go running so i am stuck with a bike that doesnt move and anything i can do in my room.
if i do sit ups or crunches how many should i do a night? school for me starts on the 5th. i want to try to get as much done as i can. im not expecting alot becuase i know it is a short period of time so please do not tell me its hopeless or whatever. how long should i go on that non moving bike thingy? what other stretches?
also is it possible to get rid of cellulite?

Which is better?
Posted Wednesday August 15 2007, 2:30 pm
Okay right now I'm doing 60 minutes of cardio (elliptical) a day. I know this sounds like alot but I started out with 15 minutes a day about 3 months ago and I've been working my way up gradually.
I haven't seen any changes in my weight since I started doing 60 minutes cause I only started a few days ago but right now I'm doing the 60 minutes all in one go, which is fine with me, I'm not getting worn out or feeling weak or anything
But I'm wondering, would it be better to do the 60 minutes all in one go or do 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon?
I'm talking in terms of WEIGHT LOSS here. Not in health, I don't care which is healthier because I already lead a pretty healthy li...

HELP!! need advice on body mass/weight and control
Posted Wednesday August 15 2007, 1:33 pm
ok I posted a question before on how to gain weight and muscles but at the same time to not grow too much fat and ppl told me to eat more protein/do bodybuilding exercises and lay off the fat
i have been consumed lots of pasta/bread/fish/cereal/water/chicken/beef/pizza over the last one month or so.The reason of me doing this is that I'm now skinny,and I want to grow more 'meat' so to be bigger.
1)The only place that seems to be growing bigger is my stomach,how do I get the meat or the food to go to my arms and body(I want to grow my whole body,as in bigger like sideways as well,and not just my stomach)
2)Once I get the meat to my entire body,I obviously exercise to get muscles,the problem now is...

Running

Is there anyway to make you a faster runner... like instantly
I'm extremely athletic, but I have to run a 5:50 mile, so I was wondering:
Does like adrenaline make you run faster? Like "fight or flight?"
If so, how can you make your adrenaline higher?
Also, any other ways to make you run a fast mile time?
