liddylflirtx3 answered Friday August 13 2004, 2:17 pm: You can jump on the trampoline, but I think you should also do crunches that will help your stomach.
For your arms - try lifting a couple pounds each day. It won't kill you and the results will be amazing!
XxShortStashxX answered Friday August 13 2004, 11:22 am: the trampoline will help your legs because you are jumping but if you wanna work your upper arms you should get some weights and go out to the side of you and then back in and then crul them up infront of you too and for your stomach you should do crunches and sit ups
hope i helped ShortStash [ XxShortStashxX's advice column | Ask XxShortStashxX A Question ]

Well It's Aug. 12th now, so you've got almost a month. The trampoline, unfortunately won't do a whole lot. For your stomach, just do like crunches and situps and stuff like that. When you do them, don't do like 500 one day and then none the rest of the week, do maybe like 50 a day to start off then gradually increase it, and take the weekends off to give your muscles time to recuperate.
For your thighs, the best thing I can tell you is to get one of those contraptions where you push your thighs together and it gives resistance...they look like a butterfly but i'm not sure what they're called.
For your upper arms, find light weights like 5-15 pounds each, and just lay on your back with your arms spread out so you make a T, and just bring your arms in...way up above your chest. It's important to keep your elbows straight, because if you bend them you work your wrist and forearm more than your upper arm.
Above all...run. Get into a habit of maybe running a mile or two every day or even just every other day. I have a friend who moved away 3 years ago and when he left he was about 5'5, 180 lbs of fat. Within less than 6 months (of running 2 miles a day) he was at 5'6, 135 (obviously running doesn't make you taller....) and in great shape. When he visited my town, I didn't recognize him til I heard his voice and saw his family with him.
LilCutePinkAngel answered Thursday August 12 2004, 11:29 pm: no the trampoline will not help. i have the same problem with my stomach, thighs, and upper arms. so what I started to do was to do 20 pushups in the morning after breakfast and 20 at night after dinner. 50 situps in the morning after breakfast and 50 at night after dinner. and 30 crunches after I eat lunch. so far it is working out great.
