How long does it take to get ripped?
You do daily exercises that involve sit ups, and crunches And regular sets with dumbbells daily. I made up a routine to do 150 sit ups, 50 crunches, 50 jumping jacks, 50 ski jumps, and 20 push ups daily, twice a day. 1 set in the morning before I eat anything, and 1 in the afternoon at about 3:00 after lunch. Do regular dumbbell exercises. What I do with my dumbbells, is I do actual exercises with them and there are many different ones. You can see them on youtube. But you can do regular sets with them. What I am doing is 100 sets of 5 pounds with each arm every hour each day (pm). Make sure you work out with the dumbbells, you just keep going up. Ex: start with little weights! like 3 lbs and then when you are ready you go you go to 5 lbs then, 7 or 6 lbs etc.

What does cardiovascular endurance have to do with gymnastics?
Compared to many other sports gymnastics is not oriented towards cardiovascular fitness. Because strength and power are so important in gymnastics, too much work on endurance exercises actually reduces strength. The only endurance important in gymnastics is muscular endurance. Events such as women's uneven bars, men's high bar, parallel bars, rings and pommel horse require more muscular endurance and strength. The longest routines are no more than 90 seconds for men and women's floor exercise and the balance beam. Floor exercise requires a cardio-fitness foundation but this is the only event in gymnastics. Most high level gymnasts work endurance by performing routines and stay away from jogging and other forms of aerobic exercise. The primary focus in training is short-term energy systems, strength, power and speed.
Squats are great for your glutes (butt). Lunges are great for thighs. Hips will naturally decrease in size when you increase cardio (running, walking, etc.). Squats and lunges don't need equipment (your own body weight provides resistance) but you can add "weight" by holding heavy objects, such as soup cans or jugs of water. Also, squats can be done while you're brushing your teeth, drying your hair, etc. ~ T

When is friction in swimming good?
If you're in competitive swimming, friction will only slow you down, so the answer is no.
However, without it, you'll simply fall like a rock to the bottom of the pool or ocean or wherever you're swimming. So if you're just swimming for survival, then it will be desirable.
AnswerWhen an object is moving through a fluid, the term is "drag" not friction, and no drag is not desirable which is why swimmers remove all the hair on their bodies. Buoyancy keeps you from sinking not friction; friction is a reaction force.
Why is the increased number of mitochondria beneficial for aerobic exercise?
An increase in mitochondria means that the cell has more cellular machinery to perform the Krebs cycle and the electron transport chain. Because so much ATP is produced in the electron transport chain, such an increase in mitochondria can provide the cell with more energy to sustain physical activity, provided oxygen is available.

Which describes hiw you develop muscualr endurance?
The best way to build muscle endurance is to use your muscles often. In the gym, this means doing more reps, often with moderate weight. You will not build muscular endurance using heavy weight (more than 80 of your one-rep max), because you cannot do many reps this way. You will not build muscular endurance using light weights (less than 25% of your one-rep max) because the weight is not heavy enough to really engage your muscles in a meaningful way.
There is no shortcut for building muscular endurance. Outside of the gym, endurance is built the same way: using your muscles a lot. This can be done by playing sports that engage those muscles, or by working a physical job that does the same. It is not possible to build muscular endurance without repeatedly and meaningfully engaging the muscles for which you want to build endurance.

What is the best meal after weight lifting training?
* The best post work out meal (as of now) studies show is 20-40g of protein and 40-100g of carbohydrates. === === * From what I've learned, and from what I've experienced the best protein source would be a fast digesting source such as a whey protein supplement, and the carbohydrates should be high glycemic complex carbs such as rice cakes or a rice based cereal, bagels, white rice, etc. The purpose of the protein consumption post workout is to get amino acids to the muscles as fast as possible for repair and hopefully growth. The absolute fastest way to do this is to supplement with Branch Chain Amino Acids immediately after you workout along with glutamine. These will be absorbed very quickly, after a half hour then go ahead and hae your protein and carb meal. == == == == * I'm not sure where I just recently read about recent new studies on this issue: I think it was a Netscape link to a men's health article. The article mentioned that for years, the prevailing opinion was proteins. But recent studies revealed that the best meal post weight training session was heavy on complex carbohydrates. === === === === * Protein is still needed as it provides the base building blocks for muscle growth, the exact ratio of protein to carbs is debateable, depending on who you ask. ---- For more information, see the page links, further down this page, listed under "Related Questions."
