Walking at a brisk pace about 15 minutes.

What is little boy and fat man?

any time you experience pain lasting more that an hour after exercise you should consult your Doctor.
When should you drink muscle milk powder and can it serve as a meal replacement?
Try to avoid muscle milk, it may be high in protein but it is also high in unwanted sugars and fats canceling out the benefits of the protein. Invest in a better drink that has low fat, low cards, but high protein. This is how unwanted weight is gained (not muscle weight, bloated fat weight).
How long do you have to walk to burn 500 calories without dieting?
It depends, from what I've read, on whether it's a slow, leisurely walk or a faster, brisk walk. My doctor told me to aim for 1 Kilometer per 500 calories I wanted to burn off, even though that means that eventually I'm going to burn off more than the 500 calories, since as I go, I'll get better and faster at walking that distance...But in my mind I'll still be thinking 500 calories.
Another suggestion was that I walk for basically no less than twenty minutes, and that would count for my 1 kilometer, and that whether it was a slow walk or a fast walk, the 20 minute mark was good to aim for.
So I guess, about 20 minutes, or 1 kilometer ought to do it, I think.

What is the opposite of flexion?
The opposite of flexion is extension. Flexion refers to the bending of a joint, typically decreasing the angle between two body parts, while extension is the straightening of a joint, usually increasing the angle between two body parts.
This is one of those unanswerable philosophical questions. How poorly is the poor eater eating? How correctly is the right eater eating? How vigorously is the exerciser exercising? Even these sub-questions are difficult to an answer in a way such that the two people could be directly compared.
This question is much like asking "Is a person with bad lungs but a good heart better off than someone with healthy lungs but a bad heart?" You can't answer that without quantifying the conditions of "healthy" and "unhealthy" hearts and lungs such that hearts and lungs could actually be compared. Once you do quantify that, you're going to get an overlapping range of conditions such that the answer is "it depends".
Most importantly, is that this question doesn't need to be answered- you haven't been kidnapped by a tribe of evil cannibals and forced to choose between a life with good food spent in a box or a life of regular activity with terrible food. You live in a situation where both a healthy diet and regular exercise are readily available. Take advantage of them both.
An additional answer
I think that someone who exercises vigorously rather than eating well would probably be best, because I am unfortunately one of them and I am rather skinny for the things I eat. However, because of the life we live in today, both options are offered together. And we need to use the resources we have to keep healthy. So if you are just looking for an easy way to seem healthy, good luck. Because you aren't truly healthy unless you eat right, and exercise right.
An additional answer
Wow thanks for giving such a vague answer. I could be crazy, but I think they would be the same. It's like the question that if one person sells a million items at a very low price, and another person only sells a few but at a very high price, which has more money. It evens out. So, do what you want. If you want to eat like a fat-ass and then go crazy working out go for it. If you want to eat super great and not lift a finger, go for it.
Another answer
i personaly think that the heathy eater would have a, i don't know, better weight i guess because you can sit around and be lazy as much as you want but that doesnt mean you have to eat junk food which is what most people connect with when someone says lazy, a couch potato that eats junk food all day. but if you exercise a ton but still eat all the junk food that you want you arnt realy getting anything out of working all the junk food you had previouly eaten off. i think that the safest route to becomeing heathier is to do both because that way you just cant loose. i also am sort of like the person who answered the second time because i am rather skinny too but the only time i ever exercise is during p.e. when i have to but then again i also eat pleanty o' junk food. more than i should acctualy. but i don't seem to get any fatter so its just in some peoples genes to be naturaly tall and skinny or shorter and larger. some times you just cant do anything about it. personaly i think that this nation needs to stop caring more about the outer immage. i don't mean everybody should become slobs but that some people are just different and that's ok. well i better get off of my soap box and do my homework. :)
If you weigh 120 pounds many sit ups a day will you have to do to get a six pack in 2 weeks?
you cant.
It means if you don't use it, then your body naturaly 'atrpohys' gets rid of excess cells which it doesnt consider critical for survival. More muscles mass = more calories needed to sustain, so the body tears down these cells at rediculous rate that's why its so important to stay on the 'threadmill' of exercise...if you don't use it (muscle to the same extent) you loose it...
Which parts of the body get exercised using a treadmill?

Can you run one day and lift the next?
You can do this, but it depends on the time, With all excersise you have to work p to long periods of excersise. For example you cant expect to go running for about 3hrs and wake up the nxt day ready to lift alot of weight. Start off with times and weights u find easy and as they become easier, go for longer.
What is the best way to lose weight fast?
- This is about the best way to lose weight fast in a healthy way and how to stop the weight from returning. Eat a good healthy diet, but restrict refined processed carbohydrates. They are a major cause of weight gain. In addition, engage in regular cardio exercise. This is the best approach.
- Yes, the best way to lose weight and keep it off is to eliminate or strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates(apart from the occasional treat). Replace refined processed carbohydrates with 'fat burning' foods. If you are unsure what these foods are, you will find a list of refined processed carbohydrates and a list of fat burning foods, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links. Also, do regular cardio exercise. Brisk walking is a good choice of cardio exercise; unlike running or jogging it is sustainable long term and easier on your body.
- If you wish to add more to the dietary changes outlined above, and the cardio exercise, weigh training can be used to increase muscle. Muscle is your metabolic furnace that will burn extra energy (calories) 24 hours a day. Similarly, brisk walking (cardio) for several miles daily will burn extra calories during and immediately after walks. (Before changing your physical habits, you may wish to obtain the blessing of your physician.) For 3 free cardio exercise plans to get you started (one easier plan, one harder plan, or an intense plan, see the page links further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links.
- In summary, eliminate or strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates, replace those foods with more fat burning foods, engage in cardio exercise, and add weight training if you are able. Even without weight training, the other things will enable you to achieve fat loss in a healthy way and stop the body fat from returning.

How is running bad for dancers?
It's not. Assuming care is taken to wear proper footwear, stretch and be well hydrated, running is not bad for dancers. A foot injury might hurt a dancer's career far more seriously than the average Joe's, but normal running has no more of a risk of harming a dancer than anyone else.
