What is the exercise for muscle in the legs?

Two good exercises to build leg muscles can be done with or without added weights: 1) Squats: Legs are shoulder width apart. Lower backside as if sitting in a chair. Keep knees above toes, not past them. Watch that the legs/knees do not stray to the sides. 2) Lunges: Hands on hips, straight back. Take a step forward, and lower opposite knee/shin almost to the floor, as if kneeling. Front shin stays upright, bent at the knee. Both legs should form 45-degree angles. Return to original position, and repeat with opposite leg. These exercises use all the big muscle groups in the legs at once.

How do you build up endurance during sex?

As Lt. Frank Drebin said, (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095705/) When things happen too fast, "I think of baseball." That's a good trick, picture none out, runners on first and third, eighth inning at home, trailing by two. Do you bunt? Suicide or safety squeeze? What if the batter is eighth in the order and the pitcher is up next. Actually, I integrate by parts in my head, usually trig functions. Try integrating exp(-x)*sin(x), and see if that doesn't slow things down.

Wrong. For one, your quad muscles are your rectus femoris, vastus medialis, vastus intermedias and vastus lateralis. Biceps femoris and semimembranosis are part of your hamstring msucles. Secondly, calf muscles include the gastrocnemius and the soleus, while the tibialis anterior is part of the front compartment of the lower leg, not the calf.

And to make everyting straigght, all major muscle groups are worked out during a skipping exercise. Abdominals to stabiliase your body, legs for the jumping, biceps and lats and traps for the propelling of the rope.

How do you improve your splits in five days?

there are a few basic stretches involved to be gain the ability to do the splits. i can only do the front splits and at the moment im working on side splits. here is one everyday stretch for you to do at least twice a day. First, find a ledge that is up to about your waist(a window-sill is what i used!) and hold onto it with your left hand. Then, raise your right foot. Hold on to the arch of your foot coming from the inside leg. Make sure you have a tight hold of your foot! Then pull your leg upward keeping both legs straight. Do this with your left leg and continue to do this until your knee is touching your ear. This might take anywhere between 1-4mths depending on your age and how flexible you are when you first start off. Remember: only do this stretch when warmed up because if you do it when you're cold, you could pull ligaments or tendons in your legs. Do this stretch after a fast walk or if its raining, jog on the spot! Why spend money on stretching machines when you can easily use your muscles! I hope this information will help you to be able to do the splits! Im always happy to help!

Is sweat liquid fat?

No. The only way to rid fat from your body is to have it removed surgically. Fat cells develop at certain times in the human body. For males, this is in utero and during puberty. For females, this is in utero, during puberty, and during pregnancy. The fat cells you have are the fat cells you have.

Now, that being said, fat cells either grow (storing water, nutrients, and toxins), or shrink (metabolism of stored substances).

The human body sweats under specific conditions: exercise, excess temperature (internal and external), and stress. When we sweat, fat can metabolize some of it's stored substances, and water released from fat can be a component of sweat, but this is not fat dissolving.
