Exercise

A ten year old should not be focused on getting ripped but staying healthy is important. If they are overweight, or just unhealthy they should be encouraged into physical activity, preferably a sport they enjoy

Was wondering about timing for others to swim this distance -- I swim around 5K per day, probably 5 or so days per week on average -- approx. time is around 1 hr 30 mins or 1 hr 45 mins, nonstop swimming. Note that I've just gotten back into swimming this summer after a break of 2 yrs or so, but when younger I swam daily during summers.

Late 30s male in pretty decent shape, 6' + and a little over 200 lbs.

Although theories have tended to change over time, for quite some long time now, the most standard answer has been, "lactic acid", although newer explanations have been proposed

What Happens When We Train? When one trains with weights a stress is placed upon the body. Both the skeletal muscle and nervous systems are stressed by the imposed demand of lifting heavy loads. The nature of this stress and how it affects the body from a physiological perspective is open to discussion and not universally agreed upon by the scientific community. For the purposes of this article we will not delve too excessively into the science of the issue but rather focus on some generally accepted ideas regarding training induced stress and how the body reacts to it. What is Recovery? The skeletal muscle cells incur damage from heavy weight training. The body's response is referred to as recovery. Without recovery the only consequence of training would be harm to the body. Most training systems advocate 1-7 days worth of rest from weight training for a particular muscle or muscle group in order to allow for recovery and hopefully for the adaptation of increased size, strength, or both.

I guess it would depend on the persons health.

For a "health" person maybe not.

For an "unhealthy" person maybe so.

Yes, but only if you are performing basic compound exercises (especially, squats, deadlifts, presses, rows, dips, and chins) using perfect exercise technique with minimal rest between sets and using the most poundage you can handle while maintaining perfect exercise technique. You can certainly do it in two 30-minute training sessions weekly (excluding warm-up and cool-down).

There is no such thing. The human body only has 3 tendinous intersections (the tendons that cross the rectus abdominis). These means that you can only have a "Possible 8-pack". However, the way to obtain a great 6-pack would be through strength training and MAINLY diet. You will need to get to a body fat low enough to see the abs. Everyone has them, they are usually just covered in fat.

One of the core exercises of power lifting and strength training in general, the bench press develops the pectoralis major and minor (large muscle group making up your chest) and triceps primarily, but also helps develop the anterior deltoid (front shoulder muscle), and the serratus anterior, a muscle on either side of the body that flares out slightly from the bottom of the armpit to the middle area of the ribcage. The serratus anterior is also known as the "boxer's muscle", because this muscle is utilized by pushing the scapula forward and around the rib cage when executing a punch. The forearms will also be developed to a lesser degree because they act as a stabilizer when performing the bench press. Adjusting the position of one's body, such as sitting up at a roughly 45 degree angle (incline bench press), or lowering the bench and lying back with the head below the horizontal position of the hips (decline bench press) help isolate the upper and lower portions of the pectoral muscles, respectively. The width between one's hands when gripping the bar is also significant; a wide grip concentrates force in the pectorals, while a close grip concentrates force in the triceps.

The bench press is an excellent upper body exercise and crucial to developing power and definition in the chest, shoulders and arms. Large chest and shoulder muscles also help define the so-called "V-shaped" torso in a man, which women across nearly all cultures cite as a physically/sexually attractive trait. And remember: safety first! Always make sure to have a spot and I highly recommend against benching alone, lest you want to asphyxiate yourself or knock out your front teeth! If you don't have access to a bench press or are by yourself, push-ups will suffice, for the most part. Just make sure to do them often and to push yourself to do more.

425 is a recorded weight. Some players who knew him said in the mid 400's His natural strength and heart made up for what he lacked in the weight room.

Generally we exercise to stay fit and in shape

So basically, aerobics helps us stay fit by keeping our heart healthy and also burning off the excess calories off our body.

And resistance training improves our muscle output and our posture and looks.

So combining both will give you a healthy body with a very good appearance. After all that is what everyone desires to have.

Frank Zane was at his best between the age of 35-40 years of age and a body-weight of 190lbs. That said, Mr. Zane could have bench pressed twice his body-weight or 380lbs., squatted 2.5 times his body-weight or 475lbs. and deadlifted 3 times his body-weight or 570lbs. Frank Zane trained for muscle definition and not pure strength like a powerlifter. Had Mr. Zane trained exclusively for strength, then it is not unreasonable for him to have achieved a 400lb. bench, 500lb. squat, and 600lb. deadlift!

Many doctors and people have different opinions but you should do the most common 15 on 15 off and water therapy may help. if you have a pool or feel like going to a public pool. you can tred water lightly or exercise it lightly. also try not to use this muscle to much.

Yes, sweating a lot is good for you, it is healthy. Your body is meant to sweat, it cleans out and opens up the pores in your skin. Sweating is the body's main method of cooling itself and the more regular sweating exercise you do the more effective your body will sweat. Some say your body releases toxins through sweating, and others say certain antibiodics that help your skin are produced through sweat. While different people sweat differently, generally it is a good indicator of how much exercise you have done. It is strongly recommended that you exercise some every day and by working up a good sweat while doing this you will know you have fulfilled this while cleaning out the pores of your skin.

I think 8-hrs

Well I am a 11 year old and I am running a 7:31

Proper warm up is the best way to prepare your cardiovascular system for exercise.

Depends if your butt is fat or muscle-if its fat-then aerobic exercise along with low fat diet will reduce size. If muscle-avoid those muscle building exercises that focus on buttocks-ie cycling, stairmaster etc-opt for running, treadmill,rowers,etc

Protein is consider the top supplement and the most important for muscle building. But if you're going to take protein, don't forget to eat well and don't think of protein as a "meal" but as a dessert.

62-80 pounds

A dumbbell will generally require more strength than a barbell. Once you push up a barbell it balances out but with a dumbbell you have to keep it balanced the whole time which requires more strength. One is not "better" than another, just different. Do both if you can.

Certain aspects of lifting weights require cardiovascular conditioning and muscular endurance, such as high-repetition squats and dead lifts. Being physically fit in terms of cardiovascular health will increase one's performance in these activities. In addition, muscles, simply through their presence, burn calories, which means that the more muscularly developed will have an easier time losing weight.
