What is the primary muscle used in a squat?
The squat works many muscles in the body in some form. The primary movers are the hamstrings, quads, and glutes. Assuming you are doing them correctly with your knees out and squatting below parallel, you should be using your hip adductors as well.
Will walking on a incline make your butt tight?
yes, ive been walking for 2 mos. and my butt is toning and also thighs. Lunge your walk. Walk at least an hr. a day. Pick up your feet as you walk. Meaning pick your feet up high. For faster results walk in areas where there are steep hills. I walk five days a week. Work up a sweat. Intensify your walk by running a couple of minutes and then walk again. Running some while walking speeds up the butt toning. You will definitely see results. Remember, at least 1 hr a day. Walk where you feel relax. Oh my god you will see results. i hope this was what you where looking for good luck veronica drisker from Cedar Park TX.
It depends on the speed you are running. if you run at 5 miles per hour then it would take you one hour. of course being on a running machine you remain in one place so if you want the smart-alec answer, forever.

How do you become very flexible?
To become more flexible you would want to stretch more until you are satisfied with how flexible. I am a dancer and I stretch a lot to become more flexible. Things I do is do my splits, right, left, and center, and I do the wall stretch and push myself against the wall as a couple of my stretches. But before you do all of this make sure you stretch out your back, arm, leg, stomach, neck, ankle, and a lot of you muscles or else you can pull something.
I want to become more flexible and i do stretches a couple of times a day for 20-30 minutes. I have been doing it for a week now and I am already seeing a difference. Swimming will exercise you and so will yoga but out of these two to become flexible yoga.
You have to continually work on stretching certain muscles out. It will take a while.
stretch every single day and do the splits then you will get more flexible.
try to stretch or do the splits for 3 minutes each day and youll get better
I improved my flexibility drastically-I could not even touch my toes, and now I can touch my head to my knees and my palms to the ground-by simply sitting on the ground and reaching for my toes. You can bend your ankles back as far as you want in order to grab your toes, and then attempt to point your toes. This will pull you forwards and bend you down. Hold this position for about 30 seconds.
If you cannot touch your toes when sitting on the ground, bend one leg so that one foot is touching your opposite thigh. Then reach for the other foot. Repeat on both sides. Hold each side for about 30 seconds.
However, if you do not have time to do this, there is an easier way, albeit one that takes slightly longer. Just stop bending your knees to pick things up off the floor. It will be difficult at first, but soon it will become natural.
If you can do both, it will improve your flexibility quickly.
stretch more (special stretching excercises for each and groups of muscles increase flexibility) google it to find some exercises.
Exercise and do back bends
By going to the gym, exercising, running, yoga, or maybe just simply stretching every day and night.
There are lots of ways to become more flexible. A major factor of improving your flexibility is to do a variety of stretches every day to ensure that your muscles get used to regular stretching. After about a month you will definitely start to see just how much more flexible you are becoming, as your body will grow accustomed to stretching further out of its comfort zone, therefore pushing it to become more flexible. It will probably take about three months, I'd say, to really improve your flexibility to a much higher level than previously, depending on how flexible you were to begin with. Find about 5 to 7 stretches to do each day and keep this in a routine, then your body will gradually build up more strength to endure this kind of physical exertion and flexibility. After a while of doing these stretches your body will easily perform the tasks at hand as second nature, as it will be so used to doing it.

What are some exercises for smaller breasts?
Chest exercises and over the head with your arms type of exercises may help some, but nothing short of surgery will make them stand up like they did when you were younger/before you had kids. Which ever the reason is for you. Here are more opinions and answers from other FAQ Farmers: * I'm pretty sure any pectoral muscle exercises gives them more definition, but they essentially are fatty tissue. * Try taking 10lb weights in each hand. (10 might be a bit much to start with. whatever seems comfortably difficult). Spread your arms and bend them so your forearms are perpendicular to the ground and your upper arms are parallel with it. Bring your hands together using your whole arm. Then you move your arms together so your elbows touch. Do lots of reps until it's a little firmer in the area above and beside your breasts then you can move up in weight. When I say a lot of reps, I mean a lot. You're gonna be real sore the day after you do it, so don't be alarmed. * Your breasts themselves have no muscle tissue so you cannot firm them up but if you do exercises to firm up the supporting pectoral muscles you can give them support from behind. * Push-ups are a main exercises in my routine. The tend to keep my breasts perky. So yeah, push-ups.
These are very good guidelines, but another option to use besides free weights or dumb bells is the use of resistance bands. Stretchy bands that can tone and strengthen the muscles behind the adipose breast tissue. They work very well with less chance of injury to muscles, and in as little as 10 minutes a day, you can strengthen and tone your upper body.
