What is the most reasonable distance for a person to walk in 1 hour?

It all depends on how fast of a pace you are walking... If it is a moderate to fast pace you could probably get up to 5, 6, maybe more maybe less. It's just a rough estimate.

What happens to your heart and lungs if you exercise hard when you are anemic?

When you are anemic, you have a low number of red blood cells in your blood. This means that your body can't transport as much oxygen as it normally could. When exercising, the lungs will try to compensate the lack of oxygen by expanding and collapsing more often. The heart will beat faster to keep the oxygen-rich blood flowing.

Does Fish Make You Stronger?

No food makes you stronger. Foods with high complex calories and protein, combined with exercise makes you stronger. Most fish have little to no protein, and a medium amount of complex calories. Try spaghetti with meat sauce, pork chop, or granola bars for high protein and complex calories.

P.S. There are simple calories, and there are complex calories. Things like pop tarts have simple calories, while spaghetti or pork chops have complex calories. Simple calories last shorter and leave a big "crash" after it wears off. Complex calories last very long and give you a very minuscule drop in energy.

23 What is the difference between isometric and isotonic exercises?

Isometric exercises are exercises that are done statically, meaning there is no range of motion while training. The muscles are engaged against a resistance, but do not move. Examples of isometric exercises:

The plank for abs, wall sits (sitting against a wall and holding the position), calf raises in which you remain static at the top of the lift.

Isotonic exercises cause muscles to contract or extend while engaging resistance. This includes bicep curls, push ups, squats, and most other exercises.

How much weight can you put into the bed of a 2001 dodge 1500 that has a suspension lift?

Please read this entire answer for complete information. The first part is from personal experience.

For the Dodge 1500, 2000 pounds is the practical limit if the road is good, and the speed is low. That is what I know based on what I have been told about truck nomenclature, which seems to be true in my experience in using them to haul landscaping material like rocks and dirt.

This is the guideline: the number like RAM 1500, Chevy 1500 or Ford F-150 gives a clue to the capacity of the bed. These numbers suggest 1500, but in practice can be stretched a little to 2000 pounds or more. I have never had anything go wrong by adhering to this guideline. This is just my experience in moving 50 to 60 heavy loads over distances of up to 50 miles. This is according to my late husband who I occasionally helped in his landscaping business.

Internet sources give figures of 1000 on the low side to 1850 to 1910 pounds on the high end for a 1500. Which figures are right? I can't tell you for sure. Technically the 1500 is a half ton truck. Let's leave it at that for liability purposes.

How long does it take to walk 1 meter?

One meter is about one and a half steps. It takes a second or two.

Is it possible to walk 17 miles in 4 hours?

Yes, if you walk between 4-5 mph. Which is a common walk pace.

What are the oxygen consumption differences between walking housework and sprinting?

It might be best to answer this question in terms of METS (metabolic equivalents). To convert METS to V02 multiply by 3.5.

Watching TV - 1 MET

walking <2mph - 2 MET

Housework - 2-4 MET (depending on activity)

Jogging - 7 MET

Running - 8+ MET

Note:

'It must be noted that published MET values (or exercise calorie calculators on web sites, which are based on such values) for specific activities are experimentally and statistically derived from a sample of persons and are in fact indicative averages. Obviously the level of intensity at which a specific person performs a specific physical activity (e.g., the pace of walking, the speed of running, etc.) will deviate from the representative experimental conditions used for the calculation of the standard MET values, but moreover, as is explained in the following, the actual energy expenditure and the RMR will differ according to the person's overall fitness level and other factors.'

Warming up conditions for kho kho?

An effective warm up for kho kho or any other sport, is going to be one that gets your heart beating, increasing blood flow and increasing your respiratory rate. Start with light physical activity. It should last 5 to 10 minutes, and you should have a light sweat. Then move on to stretching. Include all muscle groups. This should last 5 to 10 minutes. Then you should move on to warming up the specific parts of your body used for the sport. For this, you should use more vigorous activity. You should also speak to your coach (if available) to see what stretches and warm ups he/she recommends.
