exercise
how much exercise is enough to keep you in shape?? i've been an athlete ever since 3rd grade, but recently i sprained my ankle and it turns out i have a chronic ankle sprain. my parents thought it would be best to take the season off, or just not play. i can run forever, but i just can't turn it. would running 5 days a week for 30 minutes a day on the tredmill plus crunches and the 6 inches stretch be enough?? i eat 3 meals a day and sometimes one snack, sometimes i don't have a snack. any opinions??
thanks!!

I sounds good, just make sure that you are consuming about as many calories as you are burning. Also, get enough protein. You can damage your muscles if your body doesn't have enough protein to use to help rebuild muscle. I have heard that you should get anywhere from .5 to 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day. But too much isn't good. The protein is in your blood, and your kidneys have to filter your blood. One of the hardest jobs they have is to filter out unused protein. Your kidneys can grow weaker over time from this stress, and continued over-consumption of protein will eventually lead to kidney failure. Trust me, I am starting a weight training program to build muscle and I asked the doctor about how much protein I should get a day. It doesn't matter if you want to build muscle or not, your muscles will eventually get damaged or be more prone to injury if you don't get enough protein.

this question depends on your weight and height, you dont wanna over do it because you could get seriously hurt. my advice would just be to lay off a lot of junk and soda (not all of it but not too much).

Well as long as you excersie for at least an hour a day you are pretty fit. It sounds like you are really healthy...its okay of you skip a day or two. I usually excersie 5 out of 7 days. well i hope this helps and keep up the good work. Sounds like your doing good.
