Did Taylor Lautner really do 1000 push ups at the kca 2012 and how long did it take him to do it?
Yes and in 10 minutes
How does weight lifting stunt the growth of boys?
It doesn't. It's a commonly held myth. Normal, properly performed resistance exercise will not stunt growth in young people. Younger individuals should be carefully supervised when weight lifting, especially when attempting more complicated lifts with heavier weights. It's possible an injury resulting from improper use of weights could stunt growth, but it shouldn't be an issue if proper supervision and training is given.
How many swimming laps in a mile?
It depends on how many were on board when the boat went down off the coast of finland.
What is a disadvantage of anerobic respiration?
The disadvantage is that anerobic respiration produces less energy than aerobic respiration, and as a result the organism grows at a much slower rate.
Why do body builders work on certain muscle groups on a given day and then give them a rest period?
It is important to understand that training in the gym is catabolic, which means that it breaks down your body. Therefore, you do not grow in the gym. You grow during recovery, especially if you get proper rest and nutrition. That is anabolic.
Advanced bodybuilders often rest certain body parts while continuing to train other body parts. If you are a beginner, do not follow that example or you are liable to become overtrained. Instead, do a whole body workout. If it is of sufficient intensity, you will experience DOMS (delayed onset muscular soreness) the next day or two. Wait at least 24 hours after all DOMS has disappeared before training again. This will ensure systemic as well as localized recovery; you will not become overtrained, which can make you smaller, weaker, and sicker.
Should a triathlete engage in aerobic or resistance training explain?
Both. A triathlete needs to primarily do aerobic training in order to build endurance for a long event. A triathlete should also augment that with resistance training to build strength for speed.
If you lose 6 pounds is that a lot?
It really depends on where you are compared to what you should be. If you weigh 345 pounds and you should be weighing 150, a loss of six pounds clearly isn't that much. That would be a start. However, if you weigh 100 pounds and you should way 100, losing 6 pounds for no apparent reason would definitely be a lot. It depends on the circumstances.
Clothes to wear when hill walking?
Whatever you do don't wear denim.It is a very bad insulator and could cause you to get a really severe cold...or worse.Wool is one of the top insulators you will find but,however isn't good when wet!!!Try to wear pure wool(100%) for better results.Cotton is also a good insulator but ,like wool,is terrible when wet.My advice is to wear a woolen jumper with a rainlacket outside and that way you get the best of both worlds!!!!
What foods make your butt smaller?
None. Food can not make your body shape change only with fat. To become smaller get out of the chair, watch your diet, and stay off of the fatty foods.
What causes muscular fatigue after just a few minutes of intense exertion?
Reduction in the effectiveness of a muscle or muscle group reflected by a decline in peak tension. Local muscular fatigue may be due to one or more reasons, such as failure of a motor nerve to transmit nerve impulses to the muscle; fatigue at the neuromuscular junction through depletion of neurotransmitters; inability of the contractile mechanism (the actin and myosin myofilaments) to generate force; accumulation of protons from lactic acid in the muscle; depletion of ATP and phosphocreatine; or failure of the central nervous system to initiate and relay nerve impulses to the muscle. The most probable sites of local muscular fatigue are the neuromuscular junctions, the contractile mechanism of the muscle itself, and the central nervous system. Fatigue at the neuromuscular junction, which might be more common in fast twitch fibres, is probably due to depletion of http://www.answers.com/topic/acetylcholine. Fatigue within the contractile mechanism may be caused by accumulation of protons, depletion of ATP and phosphocreatine; depletion of muscle glycogen; dehydration; or lack of oxygen and inadequate blood flow.
Never starve yourself to loose weight! Try doing Leslie Sansone workout videos (buy at target) and joining a Weight Watchers Program.....Good Luck!
How long does it take to run 10 miles?
If you run at an average 6 mph pace, which is a 10 minute mile, it would take approximately just over 100 minutes, of course your pace may not be this pace so it could take more or less time, but I would say running 10 miles in 1.5 hours is pretty good.
How do you get a flat stomache?
HOW DO YOU GET A FLAT STOMACH
Well, let us first look at eating habits and then look at exercise.
EATING HABITS
You need to change your eating habits. Eliminate or strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates (apart from an occasional treat). That is the primary key. Over-consumption of refined processed carbohydrates is a major cause of insulin resistance and, by that, body fat accumulating on or around the stomach or abdomen. If you are unsure what these foods are, at the bottom of this answer you will find a page link leading to a full list of refined processed carbohydrates.
Over-consumption of refined processed carbohydrates is also a major cause of heart disease, hypertension, weight gain, obesity, type 2 diabetes, and many other diet related diseases and conditions.
All carbohydrates, whether simple carbs or complex carbs,become sugar when digested. Therefore, eating refined processed carbohydrate foods is like eating concentrated sugar. Also, avoid sweetened drinks. Additionally, limit natural fruit juices. Even natural fruit juice is high in fructose (which is the form of sugar in fruit). Fruit juice is perceived as healthy, but many people fail to realize that it is loaded with sugar. Natural fruit juice can contain just as much sugar as a soft sugary drink.
Replace the refined processed carbohydrates with more of the so-called 'fat burning' foods. Then you can take advantage of the fat burning thermic effect of those nutritious foods. If you are unsure what fat burning foods are, at the bottom of this answer you will find a page link leading to a full list and more information about the thermic effect of these foods. Drink plenty of water to enable you body to process these foods.
Eat less saturated fat and replace it with beneficial fats and oils. Protein and fat is essential to sustain life. This is why low fat diets can be detrimental to health. Therefore, you must include some fat in your diet. If you ate a no fat (or no protein) diet, you would die.
Eat several smaller meals throughout the day to avoid hunger and food cravings. You will not be eating more food; you will simply be spreading it throughout the day.
EXERCISE HABITS
If you are able bodied, engage in regular cardiovascular (cardio) exercise. Cardio is an excellent fat burning exercise. Some examples of cardio exercise are brisk walking (treadmill or outdoors), jogging (treadmill or outdoors) running (treadmill or outdoors) trampolining, cross-country skiing, rowing, Nordic walking, and aerobic dancing. Any exercise, sport or activity that increases your heart and respiration rate for a specific period is cardiovascular exercise.
There are different degrees of cardio exercise from mild to intense.
At the bottom of this answer, are page links to free cardio exercise plans, both mild and intense. Intense cardio exercises include running, interval training, and graded exercise protocol. Brisk walking is an example of mild cardio exercise.
There is an inverse proportion between intensity and duration. Intense exercise must be brief! For example, you can sprint 100 meters, but you cannot sprint 5000 meters.
If you are new to exercise, you may wish to begin with mild cardio, then work your way up. A good form of mild cardio is brisk walking (outdoors or treadmill).
Even if you are unable to exercise, you can still achieve good results, and improve your overall health, by following the dietary changes outlined on this page and in more detail in the links given below.
(It is wise to consult with your own physician before changing your eating or exercise habits, especially if you already have any known condition or disease.)

It is good to "fast" sometimes. Fast-going without food. You probably knew that, haha. But still
You probably don't need to do it for more then a week... Or less.. But
I'm just saying. I wouldn't know yet, though. I haven't had to worry about that
Just don't go without too much food for too long.,
