Yes, it's generally advisable to avoid vigorous exercise for 24 hours before a PSA test. Strenuous physical activity can potentially elevate PSA levels, leading to inaccurate results. Light activities are usually acceptable, but it's best to consult your healthcare provider for specific recommendations based on your situation.

If you exercise everyday for 6 days and weigh 115 lbs how much will you lose?

There is more to factor in than just exercise, such as what type of exercise, how much exercise, what has your calorie and carbohydrate intake been during those 6 days of 'exercise'. Also muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are adding muscle you may actually weigh more after a period of exercise than you did prior to an exercise program. Your mirror is the best judge of how you are doing, do you look thinner/ firmer. Many times we get caught up in how much we weigh when we should look at how we look, this is the true test as to how we are doing with diet and exercise.Cheyzer
