What does it mean to walk between the rain?

==new answer== In the universal language of mind, rain will represent the waking conscious experiences. Walking is movement forward toward a goal. Walking between the rain would suggest that a person is, in the groove, up on their game, where they are consistantly responding to many experiences productively rather than reacting emotionally.

How much weight can an 11 year old soccer playergirl lose?

Weight loss among soccer players varies. There are girls who would be more effective if they lost some weight. There are players who are too light to compete effectively with heavier players in some circumstances. So how can this be sorted out? Weight "control" and a person's "shape" are devilishly difficult topics in sports or anywhere else. The best "answer" is probably just advice. Run it (the weight thing) past the coach and a parent or parents to get it sorted out. It is important for any individual with a "weight issue" to be honest about it, and to seek input from all individuals, groups or organizations (and, in particular, family and sports-type coaches) that can shed light on it so that the individual with the "issue" can paint a "good" and "fair" picture of what they want for their future. Then it's time to get all the help that may be needed (from said resource base) to get there. As always, good luck.

How do you silm down your arms and shoulders?

Exercise my dear or my man. Remember is it just other people who think you should slim your arms or is it the fact that you have let your love of food get ahead of you? If it really concerns you think of changing the way you have been playing sports or start a sport!

What can you apply to the skin if it is red after swimming many hours in chlorinated water and the chlorine burns on your skin from swimming?

Shower or bathe to wash off the chlorine, then apply a cortisone cream, you might be allergic to the chlorine. Oral benadryl might help. If no improvement, go tp the ER/ When you swim in a pool during the day the sun reflects off the water so a burn is more likely to occur to the individual. Mix 1 cup of Epsom Salts (NOT LIKE TABLE SALT AND WON'T STING) with boiling water to melt the crystals. Run a TEPID BATH (body temp) and pour the mixture of Epsom Salts in the bath water and soak for a good 20 minutes. This will draw out the burn and is also great for sore muscles or itchy rashes. Got some news for ya. Those burns are not from chlorine even if those levels were at 10 ppm or higher.

Is basketball a good cardio workout and why?

Yes, any activity that raises your heartrate for an extended time is good for you. It burns fat and creates muscle mass.

I agree with above answer...I have found that playing Wii basketball and the sports fit games are fun and do much of the same that playing in/out door basket ball does by keeping your heart rate up.

How can you increase your running speed?

Practice running the way you run in competition. For example, if there are a lot of short sprints in your sport, practice doing short sprints. Of course, your genetics (specifically, the length of your bones and the percentages of certain kinds of muscular fibers in your legs) how fast you'll be able to run, but such movements are exercise specific in terms of how they are effectively trained.

No wayQuite the opposite is true. It may actually stimulate production of human growth hormone. Smoking can stunt your growth, and poor nutrition can, too.Scientific studies have shown that weight training has no negative effects on growth but in fact positive effects.

How many crunches and pull ups are necessary to get rid of your lower body fat?

Exercises that target specific muscle groups do not necessarily help you loose weight, but they do help you obtain muscle tone. To loose weight you have to do aerobic exercise, meaning that you have to use enough of your large muscle groups in moderate activity to cause a little shortness of breath but you should still be able to speak without panting. You need to maintain aerobic exercise for at least a half hour, but a full hour is better. That is the only way to reduce any kind of body fat. Sometimes abdominal muscles become lax and crunches can help tighten and pull in your abdomen, but it isn't getting rid of fat.

How can you put on muscle if you're 14 and 5 foot 4 inches and weigh 130 pounds?

Try a slower approach to it, if you want to put on muscle you aren't going to get anywhere by making a fool of yourself going into 100 crunches. In fact the main thing for you to do is to eat well. Nutrients are key for any type of muscle building. Also, don't buy products that say you can put on more muscle than ever because it isn't true, to gain more muscle, you just need to exercise more and eat less.

Can you get workmen's comp if your business is run by family..Also if the daughter run off they can some one or find a job..?

If the business has WCI coverage. States make the laws governing WCI, not all business are required to belong. In most cases it depends upon the number of employees, type of business, and so forth. The amount the owner/employer pays for WCI is based upon risk factors, safety history, and other issues.

All 50 states require Workers Comp though most if not all have exemptions. In Texas, you can select a Non-Subscription product that's similar to Comp. Most if not all states allow you to self-insure if you have enough cash to set aside. Even if you exercise an exemption, you remain liable, so make sure you have plenty of cash for work-related injury claims if you don't carry coverage. Also, even if you don't think your employee would sue, their spouse or minor children who have to get through life on your employee's reduced salary if he has a major injury, or without his salary and companionship if he dies, may present an issue. In short, yes, please carry Comp.

Why is it dangerous to just 'stop' exercising to take your heart rate?

I wouldn't say it is "Dangerous", just not a good idea. The idea of aerobic exercising is to keep your heart rate at a constant pace for 20 to 30 minutes. When you stop to take your heart rate, your heart rate goes down(contributing to not getting an accurate reading of your heart rate.) Also, after you have finished exercising, you should cool down, because changing your heart rate drastically can be bad for you, because it suddenly changes the amount of oxygen you need, or something like that. Marge answered it better. Read the other question in this section titled "Why would your legs shake badly after exercise?" I thought her answer was good.

While exercising, for example jogging, the muscles of the leg help blood return to the heart and lungs (venous return) as they contract around the veins, aiding by squeezing the blood through. While exercising the body requires a certain amount of oxygen delivered to the body at a specific rate for that exercise. If you suddenly stop exercising, venous return is slower as the muscles are no longer helping with the 'squeeze'. Now the heart and lungs can not provide the blood and therefore oxygen to the expectant muscles and head at the required rate. The DANGER is that the jogger may become dizzy, black out, fall over and hit their head etc.

In addition to the previous response, blood tends to pool around your extremities when the heart slows down too quickly. This may also lead to lightheadedness, similar to what you feel if you stand abruptly after a long period of sitting.

Dumbell flys isometric concentration?

It is a great way of increasing the outer pec delt tie-in and strengthen the tendons associated with that area. Use light weight dumbells, while assuming the traditional fly position (on a flat bench), lower the weight slowly until you feel a stretch (making sure hands are level), hold at the bottom of the stretch for 3-5 seconds, reset to the start (up position), repeat. The bottom stretch of the exercise is the isometric concentration and the focus of the exercise.

A strain is a muscle injury?

Muscle strain occurs because of improper technique, improper stretching, not warming up, or sudden and quick engagement of a strenuous activity such as weight lifting or sports.

The best way to prevent muscle strain is to stretch regularly before exercise and be sure to set up a warm-up routine. If muscle strain does occur look up the PRICE method of muscle care.

How do you remember to work out?

Set a daily alarm on your phone that goes off to remind you. Or do it in the morning, a bit like a vitamin. Or if you have an irregular schedule like work, over time, college or anything else. Keep the alarm on. Make sure it is good for the rest of the week, and the day you can't when it goes off it should remind you to do it later and then try to remember as hard as you can.

What should you eat before you work out?

An adequate amount of protein is the most important, since your muscles will need the protein to recover, and carbs are also needed for their instant energy supply.
