I'm going to the gym tonight. There's heaps of machines so if you could tell me which machine would determine my fitness level.
Also, if there are any other ways, let me know!
THANKS.How do I know how fit I am or what my fitness level is?Fitness is a relative term. If you haven't exercised regularly, then you can be sure your fitness level is low. On the other hand, if you have exercised for a while, then you fitness has improved.
A good way to measure your fitness is with a heart rate monitor watch. That way you can keep track of your fitness level.How do I know how fit I am or what my fitness level is?Um, time yourself running two miles. That's pretty much the best way.

Provide a plausible explanation for the difference in fitness of the AA genotype in the different environments?
Humans in parts of central Africa with the AS genotype have higher fitness than neighbors with an AA genotype. Humans living on the fringes of the Sahara desert in Africa with an AA genotype has a higher fitness than neighbors with an AS genotype.Provide a plausible explanation for the difference in fitness of the AA genotype in the different environments?AS - sickle cell trait confers increased resistance to malaria so will confer an advantage in central Africa where there is much malaria and so will have a higher fitness.
AA - normal, will have a higher fitness in those areas, such as Sahara desert, where the prevalence of malaria is very low and so the condition of sickle trait has no advantage.spelling dictionary monroe muffler

Type of exercise that increases fitness but results in minimal weight loss?
I'm a sixteen year old girl, and I want to start exercising just to improve my general physical and mental health. But I'm slightly underweight and I don't want to lose any more weight. I know running and jogging result in massive weight loss. Is there any exercise I can do that will improve my fitness and stamina but won't make me lose that much weight? Please help.Type of exercise that increases fitness but results in minimal weight loss?That is a tough one! If you add any kind of exercise, you are going to burn more calories, so you'll need to eat more! Add carbs (to fuel your body during exercise so you aren't immediately burning fat), and protein (which is calorie dense and will help you maintain your muscle). Just adding a big glass of milk after exercise can help you with this.
To get your heart and lungs in shape, you don't need to do a ton of exercise. Try 20-30 minutes 2-3 times a week. If that doesn't feel like enough, add some walking (on hills, on a treadmill w/ an incline, or with lunges in between).
A lot of people don't realize that when you start losing weight -- a lot of what you lose is muscle (after a few initial pounds of water weight, which is no big deal). Muscle loss happens even if you're losing that weight by exercising. So make SURE you add strength training to maintain your muscle. (It will be a lot harder to get back than fat). You can do this without equipment by googling some body weight and core exercises like squats, lunges, pushups, planks, and crunches. (You can even do JUST these kinds of strength exercises, with some jumping jacks, jogging in place, or jumping rope in between sets, and some stretches at the end, and you'll improve your fitness in a really well rounded way. Squats and other leg exercise do a surprisingly great job of getting your heart rate up.).
Running and jogging do create a very high calorie burn, and also tend to cause you to lose muscle if you do a lot, but they are a great/fast way to get in shape. You can also try anaerobic exercises (very intense exercises you can't maintain for very long, like jump roping or short sprints). These do burn a lot of calories and rev your metabolism (eat!!), but they don't break down fat the same way other exercises do (like the elliptical, jogging). And they WORK your heart and lungs for great fitness and stamina in a faster time.

Type of exercise that increases fitness but results in minimal weight loss?You might be suprised. Running and jogging build up a large amount of muscle in your legs which results is gaining muscle mass. Muscles weigh If you have no fat to burn, you can't lose it. I would do things that build up muscle mass such as weight lifting (low weight, a lot of reps). Also, you could do classes such as yoga, and pliates to strengthen your core. Cardio is an important part of health, so I wouldn't count it out completly.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?
Though I exercise, I have only heard of stretching as a fitness exercise recently, and I'd be interested to know what effects it has on health.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?That is all false, there was a study at UCLA that proved that stretching before exercises did NOT prevent pulls/tears/etc. We gain absolutely no benefit from stretching before exercising.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?
when i stretch in the mornings and before and after workouts, i feel more refreshed and more relaxed. i don't know how to medically describe the effects of stretching, but i do know that it prevents you from pulling a muscle.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?They completely help. Especially when incorporating deep breathing. Stretching helps strengthen your cardiovascular system by causing blood to be pumped through your body. It also helps combat a lot of problems people face such as stress, fatigue, sore joints/muscles/backs. Get a good stretching/yoga book for beginners or the novice. You will see a big difference in your energy levels and workouts.
Plus, if done in a peaceful setting, it can be very calming/grounding. Good for clearing the head of the daily stresses.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?
Yes, it is quite healthy.Do stretches really help your fitness and health?I wouldn't consider stretching an exercise, but I would consider it vital for health. When working out you cause the muscle to strengthen...but also shorten. Muscles are attached to bone and when they shorten they pull on the bone. Stretching after exercise can keep muscles from pulling a bone even an eighth of an inch out of place.

How much does an Xsport Fitness membership cost?
How much is the enrollment fees and also the monthly fee for an Xsport Fitness membership? The location near me (Chicago on Elston) is advertising 2 for 1 enrollment. I was wondering how much that would cost for my fiance and I.How much does an Xsport Fitness membership cost?well i got this review from a xsport fitness review site read on as it has the price
below is the review
What the hell people?!?! This place is dope as hell! You got one guy complaining about how he can't swim and somehow thats their fault and you got another person complaining how its too packed, here's a hint, don't go between 5-7 pm during the week that's when everyone goes. If you've ever gone to gym before thats what its like everywhere.
This place has got the best facilities in a fitness center i've ever seen. And for that price?!? its only 49 a month, although the sign-up fee is like 200, (which is a little absurd), but i plan on being a member for a long time so it'll all even out i guess. Seriously though this place is clean and sleek with hotties everywhere, including myself, not a hottie but a above-averagey. Just go before 5 or after 7 and you'll find a machine no problem.

How do I improve my fitness/strength over the summer holidays so I can be prepared for rugby pre-season?
School holiday's have just started and I was wandering if anyone had any suggestions as to how i could improve my fitness and strength over the summer holidays for when the rugby pre-season starts. I am 14, play in the 2nd row and I have access to a rowing and cycling machine as well as the bleep test, I would appreciate answers using these but also sets of sit ups, press ups and running etc...How do I improve my fitness/strength over the summer holidays so I can be prepared for rugby pre-season?There is a great training program put out by the Concept2 rowing maching makers (I am in no way affiliated). See link in sources. Rowing is a great way to not only get in rugby shape but to maintain fitness during season (especially because it's low impact which is good during season). I would mostly use your rowing machine but offset with cycling for leg strength. The cycling can help build explosive speed. Also, without access to a gym, you should jog at least 25-30 minutes four days a week to build your aerobic endurance. You can do pushups (press ups) four days a week as well. Dan Cottrell had an article about inserting press ups into training sessions for coaches that I've used with success (again, no affiliation). So, I would:
- Rowing machine sessions (follow the guide), 4x week
- Jogging, 4x week
- Press ups, 4x week
- Sit ups, "planks", leg lifts and other core exercises 6x week
- Stretching, 6x weekHow do I improve my fitness/strength over the summer holidays so I can be prepared for rugby pre-season?Do nothing. Eat a lot of junk food.

What are the components of fitness and skills/techniques used in cross-country running?

Identify the important skills/techniques and fitness components needed for participation in this position/role and explain why they are important.
Thanks for any help, in advance.
xxWhat are the components of fitness and skills/techniques used in cross-country running?None?? Are you kidding me??
It's takes so much more than that.
For one thing, you have to be way fit to run cross country. 3.11 miles of pain if you do it right and you're good.
You need to have mental and physcial strength to get through an xc race. It takes months of training and just skipping a weekend of running ruins everything you've worked up to.
Obviously physical strength is needed.. there is no time outs in cross country. When you race, you race. It's soo easy to get injured from lack or stretching or starting out too fast, etc.
As for skills %26amp; techniques in cross country, the mental part ties in.
For instance when you're racing and trying to pass someone, you have to stratagize how you're gonna do it. My coach told us to run up to them and stay with them for about a minute and then surge past them.
It breaks them down a little inside, confidence and such.
And when you are getting passed, you can either stay with them or out run them. Unless you let it get to your head. Which is normal.
Also you need to be conscious of where you're using hte energy you have, like if you are going to hold back a little the first mile so you can run consistent splits. Or go the other way and just let it all go. Most of the time letting it all out the first mile leads to an epic fail. Unless you can keep it up.
You HAVE to have endurance and speed in cross country. One for the distance and one for the sprint to the finish. My favorite part. : ) The finish is important because it could determine the winner of a race, if you have no energy at the end you're gonna get outsprinted.
It takes a lot of dedication in taking care of yourself and attending every practice, and running on your on every weekend.
Hope I helped a little. : )What are the components of fitness and skills/techniques used in cross-country running?None except running a long distance.mini countryman helly hansen

What are the effects of smoking on a person鈥檚 physical fitness?How do lifestyle changes impact a person's health and fitness?While their are good and bad cholesterol's, a lot of foods we eat unfortunately contain the bad type. The good kind is produced by your body and helps absorb and diminish the bad. IT is a lot to explain, but most importantly, the way it affects your health and fitness is that too much cholesterol can clog your arteries therefore decreasing blood flow which can lead to heart attack or stroke. Also, people with high cholesterol often feel signs of fatigue which causes laziness as well.
Smoking causes shortness of breath, plaque build up in the arteries, and has been known to cause cancer. Sorry, that is all I have on that subject.How do lifestyle changes impact a person's health and fitness?

How effective is Wii Sports Fitness if you're trying to drop A LOT of weight?
I need to lose 100+ pounds, and I know its going to take a while to accomplish this, but I was wondering how effective would the Wii Sports Fitness program be? Also, what is a good regiment to do on this system?
Also, what SPECIFICALLY do I need to eat to help in my weight lose? I'm so tired of people just saying to diet, but that is really a broad term. I need to know WHAT to eat and WHAT to stay away from exactly.How effective is Wii Sports Fitness if you're trying to drop A LOT of weight?Now, this is just an average of how many calories burned:
If you play boxing for 15 minutes, you burn about 121 calories. It's the MOST ACTIVE game.
Tennis- 25 minutes, about 110 calories.
Bowling- 30 minutes, about 104 calories.
Baseball- 35 minutes, about 102 calories.
Golfing is a relaxing sport, but you burn the LEAST amount of calories- if you want to lose weight fast, don't even bother to play golf. If you play 45 minutes of golf, you burn about 99 calories.
If you want to lose weight faster, I would suggest to buy Wii Fit! It has a wide range of games, and for Black Friday, it's only $67 at Target!
Eat fruit! And if you eat vegetables, don't use much oil. Salad is good too, without dressing.
Good luck!!!How effective is Wii Sports Fitness if you're trying to drop A LOT of weight?ive never tried wii sports fitness but maybe that will work for you. as for the eating, i went through a period where i ate a breakfast of toast and orange juice and for lunch and dinner i had salad. Sometimes Id spice it up by putting chicken in the salad or a different kind of cheese. This helped me a lot i lost a lot of weight but i stuck to eating like this which is not exactly the most enjoyable way to eat. Just dont skip meals because that will actually slow your matabolism down and make it harder to lose weight. Hope i helped!

Can I maintain my physical fitness while being a truck driver?
I'm getting out of the army to become a truck driver and travel cross-country. I know I'll be sitting on my butt a lot but my question is will I still be able to maintain my physical fitness so I won't get out of shape?Can I maintain my physical fitness while being a truck driver?A quick look around a truck stop will give you a definite NO! I've seen very few truck stops that have any kind of exercise equipment in them. Tons of food is one thing that they all do have in common. The biggest problem is that most of the truck stops make a lot of their money off of the restaurants, and there isn't much else to do but eat. You can do it with activities like jogging, but it takes even more commitment to be successful out on the road than it does at home.Can I maintain my physical fitness while being a truck driver?there is no doubt! most truck stops now-a-days have gym rooms in the driver's lounge. handeling the wheel will keep the upper torso in

How do I become a fitness model?bust your butt keeping in-shape. get a tan (even in the winter). even when you think you're close to their standards, lean out a couple more pounds. learn to deal with rejection. move to a major city like LA or NYC and pick up a night job (go-sees occur during regular 9-5 hours). put together a portfolio and composition cards. affiliate with modeling agencies or model managers who deal directly with booking with sport/fitness magazines. be prepared to only earn 70% of the pay for the photo shoot because your agency will take a cut then your manager will take a cut. also, understand fitness models work harder and get paid less than fashion models. sorry to seem pessimistic, i just want to portray the reality of the industry.How old do you have to be to go to a fitness center?

Write down, in bullet points, all of the attributes that they say they are looking for (enthusiastic, punctual, intelligent, charming, good team-worker, whatever). Also make sure you spot the "implied" attributes, for example, "exciting growth opportunity in new company" means you're going to be asked how you would feel working in a high risk start-up, so one attribute is that you will need to be up for that.
Now, go through your list. For every attribute, write down why you have that attribute and - this is the important bit - write down some evidence from your own experience that demonstrates your claim.
Example:
so you say you are a good team worker; tell us about that
well, when we were doing Project X, A and B couldn't agree so i did XYZ and proj X was a big success
Name no names, hide all details, and make sure every experience is essentially positive.

How did Angelina Jolie prepare for the Tomb Raider movies fitness wise?
does anyone know her fitness regime to look that good?
details would be great, like how many times a day did she train? what did it involve?How did Angelina Jolie prepare for the Tomb Raider movies fitness wise?It is simply incredible the shape that all these movie stars, such as Angelina Jolie, Hally Berry, Beyonce and just
about every other actress, get in for their movie shoots. It is actually very simple to get a body like that, but
very hard work.
The simple part is that they do full body workouts.
I think that needs more explanation because too many people assume the term "full body workout" is just doing one
or two exercises per body part until you have worked on your full body. That couldn't be further from what I deem a
"full body workout". The workouts that are done by the stars are full of exercises that actually will cause a
ripple effect throughout the entire body.
For example: Instead of doing the traditional leg press machine and then walking over and doing the bicep curl or
even shoulder press machine, the stars do something called a "clean and press".
A "clean and press" is a really
cool move that targets almost your entire body, yes even your tummy. Some other cool moves that they do are things
like renegade rows, burpees, front squats, planks, Turkish get-ups and many, many more.
In addition to the aforementioned exercises they also do a few other things. Namely high intensity cardio training
several times a week and then on top of that they eat with such good discipline.
Just browsing around the internet
looking for the solution to losing body fat and really getting a flat sexy stomach like the stars have can be
really tedious because there are millions of fitness websites out there that only fill your head with a bunch of
lies and myths that don't really work.
Through my years of research I have only found a handful of websites that actually do explain step by step the full
process from beginning to end on how to look as good as the stars.
Of the few that I have found I am a bit biased
towards one in particular. Mainly because the title says it all "The Truth About Abs"
It was written by this
trainer and nutritionist, Mike Geary of New Jersey.
His workouts are top notch and the really simple. But to be honest they will kick your butt so if you are not
serious about getting a flat sexy stomach I would stay as far away from Mike's program as you can.
If you are actually serious and want to rid your belly of unwanted fat and finally get those tight and tone thighs
that you have always wanted then you should check out this program http://SexyAbdominals.comHow did Angelina Jolie prepare for the Tomb Raider movies fitness wise?ask her..lol.

How can I get aerobically fit, fast? I have a fitness test in 25 days?
My fitness test is a 1.5 mile tun, which I have to complete in 12 mins. I haven麓t done much exercise for two years and desperately need to get back into shape. What do you recommend?How can I get aerobically fit, fast? I have a fitness test in 25 days?Of course the first thing would be to run. Distance and sprint intervals. You also should increase your carb intake to give you a that energy to push farther. Also, increase your protien intake because you are going to need it to repair during this extensive training. You should look at your diet in this aspect:
40% Protien, 40% Carbs, 20% Fat For The First Half
20% Protien, 60% Carbs, 20% Fat For The Other Half
I have a few cardio programs to help you meet your goal. Just message me nick@budsandbods.com and I can give you more details without word limitations.How can I get aerobically fit, fast? I have a fitness test in 25 days?Google short interval training. That should be what your looking for.

How should i dress for an interview for 24 hour fitness? Should I be dressing like any professional interview? (etc suit tie ect)How should i dress for an interview for 24 hour fitness?Dress like you would for any interview. If you're overdressed, they'll probably dismiss it or be impressed, and if you're underdressed, than that could lose you some points. Best to play it safe and just wear normal business attire.How should i dress for an interview for 24 hour fitness?Are you going to be an instructor ?
Depends on what you are interviewing for.
Dress professional if you are going to be a manager.
Look around at how the people who work there now are dressed.

Why is it important to maintain a healthy level of fitness?
after completing the ct physical fitness test you need to write a 3-4 page essay reflection and answer some questions. this is one of them and the only thing that I can think of is to prevent diseases such as obesity and heart disease. Thanks!Why is it important to maintain a healthy level of fitness?Well,why is there an obesity epidemic?
Out of 100 people,only about 20% do any type of physical exercise.
Your heart is a muscle and if it is`nt challenged,it becomes weak.
I find it interesting that way back in the 60`s,Jack LaLanne was trying to promote exercise and people thought he was a (health nut).How many of these people are either dead or in a nursing home because of their lack of exercise?
Keep your body strong,eat real food ,and you will stay healthy.
I worked in a nursing home and I have no desire to live there.And I will do all I can to be healthy,God willing unless Im in an accident.
I dont know if I`ve helped or not.Go to Jack LaLannes website and check out some of his old programs.I thought it was interesting.

What does everyone think about that shooting at the LA Fitness center?
I live in Pittsburgh and I am like 20 minutes from Bridgeville and it is very scary to hear about that guy going to the gym and shooting women at the LA Fitness Center located in Bridgeville. Did anyone hear about that? For people who don鈥檛 live in Pittsburgh, I am sure it made national news. Any comments? Why did that guy do that? I hear he was desperate? That鈥檚 pretty scary, don鈥檛 you think?!! There were no guys he shot, just women because he couldn鈥檛 get himself a girlfriend and was desperate?What does everyone think about that shooting at the LA Fitness center?This sort of thing is really scary and people who act like that are studied by psychologists but hard to identify beforehand. All you can do is always be alert and not let anyone make you so fearful you can't live your life.
Don't watch the story on cable news where it will come up over and over and over. Nobody knows anything right now, so speculation is just that. Probably most of what is being said will turn out to be wrong or not helpful.
I don't even know what happened to the shooter. Just heard about number of weapons and blogs. Maybe someone will make some sense out of this.
Nobody can know why a man who can't get a date thinks there is any point in shooting random women. I think that this is more than simple pathology. it is also evil.What does everyone think about that shooting at the LA Fitness center?
i was at the gym when it happend.
It's a shame he did something like that out of loneliness. I also live near Pittsburgh. I won't even go near that town because of all the crimes.What does everyone think about that shooting at the LA Fitness center?i live in pittsburgh, and i'm pretty sure that they are saying on the news that he was in a deep depression and all of those blogs and whatnot. i think he did it because he was very mentally ill.

What are the best anmd most acclaimed fitness boooks otut there?
Books that are approved by most fitness authorities - one's that are approved by most , and not criticized bu approved 4 there theories - one that have universally accepted rules.
I'm talking stretches running and exercise in general and conditioning.
and finally who if any are the fitness authorities whose techniques are universally approved or respected.What are the best anmd most acclaimed fitness boooks otut there?Not sure if there are any. If you look in the bookshop there are very few books on running techniques, for example.
I suppose that its such a large subject and every sport and fitness regime requires a different fitness type (for example, I run and am Runnign fit, but I can't swim very far - it requires a different style of fitness). Each then needs different stretches for the muscles being used and different conditioning exercises (again, going to running - requires general body conditioning, cycling doesn't need anything to do with the arms)
So I would guess that there isn't a book covering all fitness regimes, you might have to pick a sport and you wil have better luck getting fitness and stretches for that.What are the best anmd most acclaimed fitness boooks otut there?Joel Friel's Training bible?

If i join 24hour fitness club do i HAVE to train with a trainer? or do i just walk in and start working out?

Just be sure you are informed on basic form for weight training and know how to use the cardio machines. If you are, you should be fine.If i join 24hour fitness club do i HAVE to train with a trainer? or do i just walk in and start working out?just go in and have some fun.... bring music if you go along it makes it easier to work outIf i join 24hour fitness club do i HAVE to train with a trainer? or do i just walk in and start working out?Hiring a trainer is not required. Most clubs offer a free consultation, fitness assessment, orientation, free session - different clubs phrase it differently.
In that initial, optional session - based on the standards of the club, you will be introduced to the fitness area, some form of assessment will often be performed, and basic program fundamentals will be outlined for you.
Trainers will explain in further details the services that they offer, and how they may apply to you.
This appointment also allows you to ask any questions that you may have, and a chance to meet a trainer should you have questions in the future.
I've been in the business for 10 years and the above is a general outline of what most clubs/gyms offer.If i join 24hour fitness club do i HAVE to train with a trainer? or do i just walk in and start working out?
I don't think they are going to force you to do anything.
I think it would be all right for you to just go in and exercise as you please.
If they give you problems about it, then you've joined the wrong gym.arizona weather geronimo stilton

How much are Lifetime Fitness Gym memberships?
I want to know if anyone has the price list for a single person to join Lifetime Fitness. Like the Bronze, Gold, etc.......I know if I do the free trial that they will probably hound me and hound me and just want to get an idea of pricing before I decide to go for it or not. Thanks in advance!How much are Lifetime Fitness Gym memberships?The prices range is from 80-100. Right now I believe that they are running a special where the enrollment fee is free. I had the gold and it was about 45 each moth. It is very well worth it though. You can also go in the office and ask, they are not as pushy as other fitness facilities, they actually let you breath and they don't bring in reinforcements. It is also great that they operate totally without contracts. You can cancel at anytime, no hassle (just do it a few weeks before they debit your money from your account). They are way different from the other well-known facilities. They don't force you into contracts because they don't have any.How much are Lifetime Fitness Gym memberships?Who knows a lot of people get caught in debt with gyms .
Do employers ever factor fitness into the hiring decision for a white collar job?
Maybe there is this situation: two candidates: one who is obviously very fit and muscular, another who is really fat and out of shape.
Would you take fitness into consideration? Assume this is a white collar job, such as software engineer or secretary.....Do employers ever factor fitness into the hiring decision for a white collar job?No company would admit it due to discrimination laws. But your appearance will play a factor. If you appear to be fit this communicates a lot of positive ideas about you. The idea that you are disciplined and successful, that you will be more likely to be positive and energetic. That you will have more passion and drive. That you will be more fun to work with. It will accentuate all of the positive ways someone could view you and gloss over some of the negative ways someone could view you.
In fact from my experience hiring and working in both construction and a professional environment, I think fitness matters even more for a white collar job than it does for a blue collar job. In the blue collar job, fitness does not always tell you who will work harder. But fitness does seem to tell you who is likely to be living a more balanced life, who will generally be happier and more social, and who will be more impressive to clients or colleagues.
That being said there are plenty of successful people who are a joy to work with who are out of shape. In fact most people in the work force are out of shape. So if one is out of shape there is no reason to sell themselves short. I don't think it counts against you a great deal. I just think when you are in shape it counts for you a great deal.
In the end it is your personality and your ability to do the job well that will determine wether you are the right fit for the people hiring you. Fitness is just something in the background that is either working for you or against you. It is an image thing. But substance can outweigh image if the substance is proven. If you are positive, no one will think you are negative just because you are out of shape.

What do you do in a Personal Fitness Class?
What do you do in Personal Fitness Class?
What's the difference between PE and Personal Fitness?What do you do in a Personal Fitness Class?I would suggest locking on the idea of "personal" and guiding the students into exercise activities that don't necessarily require team play. Individual exercise. Things they can do on their own. Weightlifting, hiking and biking, archery, golf or croquet, and the obstacle course, all of these are personal activities that support fitness, and can be done without teams.
For a really fun activity that's out of the ordinary for PE classes, look into "orienteering" and "geocaching."
I think your goal is to give them something they can latch onto as an enjoyable healthy individual hobby, rather than an organized team sport.stage stores virtual villagers 5

I am bored, so I am thinking of joining planet fitness I am 17 going to turn 18 in 4 months, so how old do you have to be to join a gym?How old do you have to be to join planet fitness ?I called the local Planet Fitness in Daphne, Alabama. 14, 15 and 16-year-olds are required to be accompanied by adults for all fitness programs. That is the only restriction. 17-year-olds can use the facilities without supervision.
However, they also told me that the age requirement varies from state to state. Some states allow thirteen-year-olds use of the facilities. Click on the link below to call the Planet Fitness facility nearest to you.
A happy, healthy 2010 to you.

Is doing 30 minutes of high intensity cardio 2 times out of the week enough for my personal fitness goals?
My fitness goal is to gain muscle mass so i do not want to do to much cardio and loose muscle. However i do not want to neglect cardio completely. Is doing 30 minutes of high intensity cardio 2 times out of the week enough? Or should i do more or less?Is doing 30 minutes of high intensity cardio 2 times out of the week enough for my personal fitness goals?You are just fine. Doing HIIT will not affect your muscle growth negatively. In fact it may enhance your muscle growth in your legs since your are doing such a demanding cardio routine. As long as you do strength straining along with the HIIT, you can still develop muscle growth just as well, if not better. Hope this helps!

What is inclusive fitness and how does it relate to the evolution of altruism?
How does inclusive fitness relate to selection acting on different levels of biological organization?What is inclusive fitness and how does it relate to the evolution of altruism?Inclusive fitness is a concept invented to explain the apparent paradox of how some eusocial insects (such as ants and bees) have worker castes that do not reproduce. Individual fitness is of course calculated on how many offsprings one have that survive to adulthood and reproduce. Inclusive fitness is calculated on how many relatives one raises to adulthood. It was thought that since bees and ants are more closely related to their sisters than to their own offspring (3/4 vs. 1/2), they benefit more by raising sisters rather than their own young. Inclusive fitness therefore was thought to be an answer to one of the greatest puzzles in nature of the evolution of individuals that did not reproduce. Intoxicated by the apparent success of inclusive fitness theory, the discipline of sociobiology was born in the late 1970's and it attempted to explain all sorts of seemingly altruistic behavior in all sorts of animals. Sociobiology provoked a lot of negative reactions and rebuttals from many scientists, who pointed out that it was simply bad, overreaching science.
Since then, there have been numerous research efforts on eusocial insects, and the results are summarized in the paper below. A quote:
"The altruism of insect workers has puzzled researchers for decades. Inclusive fitness theory suggests that high relatedness has been key in promoting such altruism. Recent theory, however, indicates that the intermediate levels of relatedness found within insect societies are too low to directly cause the extreme altruism observed in many species. Instead, recent results show that workers are frequently coerced into acting altruistically. Hence, the altruism seen in many modern-day insect societies is not voluntary but enforced."
The workers therefore did not voluntarily give up reproduction, but they were merely slaves of the queen mothers. Since bees and ants are often thought of as superorganisms. The workers are therefore analogous to the body cells of, say, a cow. The body cells, blood cells, liver cells, heart cells etc. play no role in reprouduction and yet they are vital to the survival of the cow. Reproduction is left to the testes and ovaries of the cow, just as the drones and queens are the specialists that take care of reproduction in an insect colony. Viewed in this light, it is therefore no surprise that eusociality evolved, even in termites in which there is no inclusive fitness advantage for the workers. All that it needs for eusociality to occur is for the queen to evolve ways to enslave its daughters.

What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?
What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate? Can you plz say why one is better than the other and not just is.What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?short answer: karate.
Boxing is a sport; they follow strict rules and guidelines for what they can and cannot do in a fight.
Karate is a martial art, developed to be effective in battle and self defense. It will teach you many moves that boxing will not, including:
kicks
grappling
lethal techniques
weapons
it's also a better full body workout.What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?
There's a reason Martial Arts are considered 'sports'...because there are RULES. That is, there are things you can't do. And out on the street, do you think there are any rules at all? Is anyone who is determined to do you serious harm going to hold back on the street?
Absolutely not.
So if self defence is truly your goal, why train in a system where it does not replicate things you are likely to encounter on the street? Like multiple attackers from different directions; someone king-hitting you from behind %26amp; while you're on the ground their friend/s come up and kicks you in the head? Someone grabbing you at night just as you turn away to lock your car door? Dirty fighting like eye-strikes, groin kicks etc?
And what about the intense verbal aggression which some nutcase might unleash on you as a prelude to launching their attack? The psychological preparation needed to withstand that and get in first? Iron bars? knives etc?
Much better to learn a reality-based self defence system which is designed to put you under all those stressors...and also at night, role-playing scenarios where you are in a cramped space, crowded hallway..just getting out of your car and get jumped...how about lying under a blanket, simulating an attacker coming into your bedroom while you're asleep?. Not in a nice, open, well-lit dojo where you're only facing one person at a time...
My personal suggestion would be krav maga for all the reasons mentioned above, and more.
If all you want is some good fitness and martial arts training, go for the boxing/karate. But don't kid yourself it's full-on real self defence.What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?well i do both, and let me tell you this - people that underestimate boxers usually end up unconscious, its simple to learn and the combination of weights and cardio training they make you do will really make your top half look the goods!
Karate on the other hand really Really REALLY works the legs you will be shocked when you see your legs after as little as a month of Karate (i know i was) the stances and footwork involved is a real challange and you will learn blocks, evades, locks, strikes, aswell as increasing your flexibility and really improving your balance.
hello,
boxing will be your better choice, not because of any inherent technical superiority, but due to the training methods in daily practice. to put this in perspective, the same could be said between muaythai and karate. muaythai is superior... obviously superior. however, any karateka who train as thai boxers do are able to compare favorably. the difference is in the overall approach to training.
boxing training is more physical and confrontational than karate. you will spend more time working at high effort levels (leading to increased fitness) and more time working against uncooperative opponents (leader to improved self defense).
still, if you are considering either, you should try both. take an introductory class and a private lesson in each one. you will have a much clearer understanding of what you can expect from either one after that.
then decide.
thanksWhat is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?Boxing is better for fitness by a long shot. For self defense it is also great, if you've ever been hit by a boxer bare-knuckled you would know why. Pretty much 1 punch will dispatch an enemy. It is the king of stand up fighting and onl lacks ground game but a good boxer won't get taken down. but for self defense all you really need to know is the 4 basic boxing punches, some Judo throws, a little wrestling, and some dirty fighting like headbutting, elbows, groin kicks and punches, eye gouging, ear slaps, throat punches, kidney punches, etc. A boxer can end a fight with 1 punch, but getting hit in the balls, headbutted or having your eyes gouged out is even worse.What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?
Are you willing to get punched in the face and knocked unconscious? If not, it doesn't matter what you try to learn, you're not going to get good at either one. People learn by doing; not dancing or pretending.
If you're serious, then boxing is the obvious answer. It is a proven martial art that has lived for thousands of years and is still immensely popular today. Karate is nothing more than a dance for kids; professional MMA fighters don't use it because it is truly useless.
I would say any Martial Art would be the way to go. They not only exercise your body but teach you discipline and self control as well. Boxing is very physical but in my opinion is not as rigorous as martial arts.What is better to learn for self defence and Fitness, Boxing or Karate?
for fitness boxing would be your best bet cause the training part is harder also it would work for self defense as long as u didnt get taken down. u need to learn a martial art like jujitsu if u want to have stand up and a ground game.
Boxing is better than fitness. Martial Arts are better than boxing. I take Martial arts and I feel I can defend myself.

If you call your homeclub, ask for corporates number. They are required to give it to you, and usually we don't even ask questions.

Make sure you explain to him that THEY messed up and charged you an extreme amount that you should not pay for. Most managers (or atleast the good ones), will understand and try to work this out. If he refuses, then take this up with a Lawyer.

Whay is the cardiovascular system so important to physical fitness?
Whay is the cardiovascular system so important to physical fitness? what would make it more important than the other systems.... i have to debate in why I believe its more important鈥?I need some good ideasWhay is the cardiovascular system so important to physical fitness?Um well lol, the biggest arguement is that every other system in the body relies on the cardiovascular system. The heart delivers blood and oxygen to the entire body. Having that means that the muscles get more blood/oxygen to grow stronger and can be used more efficiently in the workout. It means the body can recover quicker too. A healthy cardiovascular system can increase the body's VO2max as well which means the body has an increased level of physicall fitness too.italian english translation walkie talkie

Are there any fitness courses or camps suitable to prepare one to enter the army?
I am considering entering the Australian Army, and would like to be fit enough to not be a burden to the team during training. Are there any courses or fitness camps designed to physically prepare people for entry into the army?Are there any fitness courses or camps suitable to prepare one to enter the army?Hi Tim,
You are going to want a program that focuses on high intensity exercises, and one that uses a lot of body weight exercises.
Start off by working on your general conditioning by getting in a good amount of jogging (believe me, you will be doing a lot of this in the military.)
Push-ups , crunches, pull-ups, swimming if you have a pool nearby (lake would be even better).
There are a good choice of books that deal with work-outs designed for the military that can probably be found at your local library, or some place like amazon.com. I bought one a long while back designed for people looking to get into the US NAVY SEALS
If you are looking for a program to do at home, look for something that focuses on the things I lists above. I posted a resource if you are interested that has some reviews of high intensity programs as well as some diet advice.
I hope that helps some
Good Luck!!
You are going to want a program that focuses on high intensity exercises, and one that uses a lot of body weight exercises.
Start off by working on your general conditioning by getting in a good amount of jogging (believe me, you will be doing a lot of this in the military.)

What/Where should I buy stuff I'll need for a Fitness Center?
I'm planning to attend Balley Fitness this week and I have no idea on what clothing or shoes I need, I'm Male, 20 years old, 190 lbs, and was just hoping to loose weight in a gym. This is my first time in a fitness center, can anyone please give me some advice on what to do or what to buy?What/Where should I buy stuff I'll need for a Fitness Center?Regarding Bali Fitness, I would first look at the facilities and see what they are wearing at that center. Just for the first time, I don't know if that facility has a sauna, whirlpool, if you will be showering there and changing to clean clothing. I don't know if you want to wear weight gloves, if you need to bring your own towel, shampoo or soap. If you will just be using the treadmill and weights, you will need shoes that serve those two purposes and comfortable, sweat wicking socks. Considering your age, I think you could wear shorts and a tank top or t shirt. You need a back pack to carry your stuff in. The easiest thing is to have an orientation first. Go to the sporting goods store, buy one outfit, and carrying bag and then figure it from there. You shouldn't have a problem as you are a normal size. I would ask about the towels because if they don't give them out, you don't want to lie on the machine benches without a towel for your back due to the amount of sweat that people leave behind. There is also courtesy regarding fitness centers practiced more in the breech than in the observance, regarding sets and people waiting while someone rests between sets. also, there is courtesy regarding asking someone to spot for you when you lift a heavy weight from the bench. So, you might wish to look that up. I found one resource below. They didn't mention, always put back the weights and don't throw them down, set them down. Also, don't let them take you in a room for the hard sell if you haven't already signed a contract. If you need more on that, post again.What/Where should I buy stuff I'll need for a Fitness Center?I forgot to mention that you should bring along earphones which are inexpensive so that you can watch television while using the machines like treadmill.

How can I chat to and eventually date a female body builder / Fitness figures? Please only serious answers.?
I have looked into this topic online, and have only come places I would have to pay. Which I don't want to do. I know a lot of guys find this yuck but I really like it, as I use to be a body builder before, and still keep fit now. What I mean by Fitness Figure - A women that is well toned, and very fit in the fitness sense.How can I chat to and eventually date a female body builder / Fitness figures? Please only serious answers.?serious answer from a person who did date one of these people-
These people have very very regimented lifestyles and often segregate themselves from dating and the like. if they date at all it is usually another person who is just as busy as they are, or someone they had been with prior to assuming the lifestyle.
Female bodybuilders are at a disadvantage due to their normal physiology. This means they have to commit twice as hard as men to acheive the results. They also experience hormonal shifts relative to their (we'll stretch and call it supplementation choices). This said, they are often less interested in traditional man-woman romantic dating relationships. theyre usually very dominant people with their peers and prefer those that will follow rather than lead. (if you are a lady bodybuilder and are the exception to this, dont write me a nasty letter). That said, it is difficult to date a person from this group.
fitness competitors--- about the same minus the hormonal shifts. fitness competitors also have a very busy schedule and regimented diet life though. they spend 4 hours a day training like a pro athlete and when they come home they have their meals planned like a bodybuilder so you cant exactly take her to a nice italian restaurant for lasagna. Theyre also Alphas who like to run things and if you're not willing to "get on board the [her-name] train" she won't be bothered for long.

What bike is best for fitness as well as toning of the body?
I'm interested in purchasing a bike but i am unsure what bike meets my needs. i play at a high level of sport in soccer and need to keep my fitness levels high. I was curious as to which bike would accommodate my needs of keeping fit and toning the body e.g abs, arms, chest and obviously legs. I have heard of names such as a road, fitness and hybrid bike but need further advice. HELP PLEASE!What bike is best for fitness as well as toning of the body?If you enjoy cycling then get a road bike. Road bikes are the ones that you see on Tour de France and local road bike races. Spend atleast $2,000 because anything less would be a waste of money. You need to invest in your bicycle because it requires that much money to get a decent bike nowadays. Ofcourse you can get a bicycle that functions properly for much less. But I wouldnt spend any less for a bicycle because once you try a bicycle that is designed by engineers then you'd clearly see the difference between that and a $300 worthless trash they sell at Walmart.
For a $2,000 road bike you typically get Shimano Ultegra or SRAM Rival group set for an entire bike that weighs around 17lbs. For $300 you would get a bike that shifts with a loud clunk and weigh twice that much. $2,000 road bikes are engineered by dedicated professionals. You would be amazed how quickly, smoothly and quietly the bike can shift when it is made and tuned properly.
A typical roadie will ride atleast 20 miles per ride if not more. Some people go on 50 mile bike rides every day and these are enthusiasts and not athletes. Road cycling is fast and fun. Riding a bike should be an experience. The amount of money you are willing to spend on your bicycle will elevate your experience accordingly. If you ever rode a $5,000 road bike then you would know the difference between that and a $2,000 road bike. Some people might think it is ridiculous to spend that much money on a bike considering they can get a bike at walmart for $300. They clearly dont know anything if they think the $300 bike is the same as something that costs 20 times more.
If you are an athlete then you should get a road bike and dont get the entry level bike because that will leave much to be desired and spending $700 to upgrade later for a $1,400 bike and then to a $2,100 bike is a waste of money when you should have just bought a $2,100 bike to begin with. A decent bike starts at $2,000 in my opinion and anything less would end up having you spend more money in the long run because you would want that more expensive bike once you test ride one at your local bike shop and realize how much better it is compared to that $700 entry level road bike.
My recommendation for a road bike is Cervelo Soloist Team.What bike is best for fitness as well as toning of the body? It all depends on your mindset. All most every bike manufacturing

Well, no bike is going to tone your upper body unless you do bench presses with it. Cycling works the legs, mostly quads, and the glutes. What kind you buy will make no difference, as better bikes are lighter for racing, but if you are just looking to build muscle, you can buy a heavier bike and accomplish the same goal.
