Exercise

Google [ leg weight percent ] gives me a page on netwellness.org, which says each leg is 10 percent. But it also gives a previous answer here on WikiAnswers of 14 percent, which agrees with an answer of 15.7% on Ask an Anatomist.

the human body is an acid producing machine and excersise increases the energy utilsation as well as oxygen utilisation by a number of ways:

firstly the excersising muscle produce lactic acid(via anerobic glycolysis) and also the carbon skeletons of amino acids carbs and fats are broken down to produse co2+h20.the lactic acid produced goes to the liver and gets converted back to glucose and comes back to muscle(cori's cycle) and also the lactic acid along with c02 is responsible for devolopment of acidosis locally within the muscle .this acidosis is responsible for detachment of more 02 molecules at the muscle level.

also this c02 and lactic acid are responsible for production of metabolic acidosis.the major contribution to devolopment of metabolic acidosis is c02(co2+h20--->h2c03--->h+ and hc03-).this reaction happens both in general ciculation and inside the brain.as c02 is a gas it can cross the blood brain barrier and gives rise to h+ ions inside the brain.these h+ ions are the most potent direct stimulators of inspiratory centre and this leads to hyperventilation during excersise.

also during excersise the muscles use up lot of glucose which leads to a decrease in the blood glucose levels.this decrease is sensed by the pancreatic alfa cells(alfa cells contain glut 2).alfa cells respond by releasing glucagon and this glucagon stimulates the liver to do gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis thus bringing back the bllod glucose level to normal.

also during excresise since there is increased breakdown of carbon skeletons of carbs,amino acids and fats and since basically breaking down of these things means breaking the bons present between 2 caron atoms.the energy thus released by this exothermic reaction is captured in the form of atp,gtp,itp,nadh, fadh2(capturing energy means forming of new bonds that can be broken to realease the energy when required). the energy that is left out or that could noe be captured is lost in the form of heat and this is responsible for raised body temperature during excersise for which the body responds by sweatting.

i have mentioned earlier that acidosis stimulates the respiratory center by the production of h+. though h+ is the main factor there is also a considerable role of baro and chemo receptars.these baro and chemo receptars are also responsible for stimulation of vasomotar centre in the medulla that causes tachycardia and release of catecholamines.

just read about baro and chemo receptars and about the role of catecholamines and thyroid hormone in regulationg the energy utilisation by the body.i would love to explain in detail but i got to go.

just remember that human body os an acid producing machine and amost of the energy and 02 regulation is because of that.

well it depends but most likely about 1000

measure your resting heart rate

A 150 pound man will burn between 500 and 750 calories per hour in a rugby game. The amount depends on the exertion the individual applies.

That's a pretty hard question to answer, as there's ALOT of variables. Every person has a different metabolism, and your body type may be more predisposed to losing bodyfat, or holding onto it. Also, it depends on your body fat percentage. If you are already skinny, chances are it will be very difficult to lose a pound of body fat (And not muscle). A pound of fat on your body is about 3500 calories. That's 3500 calories your body will use because it can't get the calories it needs from eating. Our bodies are built for survival, and incase of a famine, it will hold onto the pound of body fat for dear life. But lets assume that Glycogen stores were completely gone and all our body had to use was the fat stored. And we are going to make alot of assumptions. Lets assume you burn 10 calories per minute of a pretty intense bear crawl (Backwards, and up a hill). If you have 3,500 calories to burn, it would take 350 minutes, which is 5.8 hours. So that'd be 5.8 hours, bearcrawling, constantly, up an infinite hill. But of course, it's never as simple as that.

Eating so little a day to lose so much weight is very unhealthy and very dangerous. It is a clear sign of the dangerous eating disroder known as anorexia nervosa. Eventually, a body will hit a plateau. This happens in nearly all forms of weight loss. The Boyd becomes so accustomed to the food and exercsie habits that it eventually adapts to stop losing weight. Also, when the body is so severly starved like that (with only 300 caloires a day, about 1,500 calories less than what it should be having daily), it finds all possible ways to conserve energy and not lose weight as an instict method of survival.

1,200

Yes. If you eat 100 calories a day and exerise like crazy. Don't do it. I have tryed it and almost died.

You are already UNDERWEIGHT, for your height, so do not lose any more weight because you will look anorexic.

Yes, and like all exercises, you will lose fat from all over your body, not just from your arms. You can't burn fat in one spot. :>

First off, i doubt if you really need to lose any at all. Check where you're at in a BMI chart before proceeding.

But if you insist, that's a bit more than 10% of your body weight, and that should disappear fairly unnoticed.

But losing 1.5 kg/week for someone who is 55 kg is HUGE. You'd have to use a CRAZY strict diet to pull that off. At the very least, give yourself more time. Even 0.5 kg/week would be OK.

I Don't Think So! Im 11 And I Weigh Just Under 7 Stone , And The Average Weight For 11 Year Olds Ranges From 5 - 7.5 Stone , So Dont Worry!

If You Still Feel Concerned , Not Just About Your Weight , But About The Way You Look , Its Not At All Hard To Change! Try Cutting Down A Bit On Your Chocolates , Biscuits , Takeaways And Chips, Dont STOP Eating Them , Have Them In Moderation. Replace All Those With Rice , Pasta , Veg and Fruit!

For Example , Instead Of Having Chicken And Chips , Have A Chicken Salad!

Of Course , Exercise Helps Too! Try Bikeriding Around Your Local Park , Or Taking A Run Down To The Nature Reserve! Exercise Dosent Have To Be Boring, Wii Fit Is Great Fun! So Is ' Your Shape ' For Kinect , XBOX 360! If You Do Feel You Need To Change , Change While You Can. Im Starting All Of These Activites , With Help From My Family!

Good Luck x Take Care , Remember , EAT LESS , MOVE MORE!

I don't believe ingesting salt will help you lose weight/trim your belly fat. In fact, I think if you have too much salt in your diet, your cholesterol is going to go through the roof, and cause a whole host of heart/artery and other problems.

It may be more healthy than regular table salt, which is mainly Sodium Chloride (NaCl). However, taking extra salt to try and loose weight, does NOT seem like a healthy option.

The best way to lose belly fat....sit-ups, crunches, and RUNNING. Running is the best way to burn fat, and while your running, make sure to stand upright, so you force your abdominal muscles (your abs/your belly) to work and burn the fat.

Well, there is a type of surgery that can block your glands to keep you from sweating, but one of the side effects is that if they put to much blocking material in your arm, you could not be able to move your arms for about 6 months.

doing bicycles on your back with your feet as close to the floor as you can get without touching it.

Other than excercising , If you are a woman , I advise Belly-dancing at your free time.

You do not "transform" fat to muscle. You burn fat and build muscle. If your fat and your look for a six pack and you think fat is transformed to muscle good luck with that... My eight pack looks best at six percent body fat. So if your calling your stomach area fat I'll assume your twenty plus precent body fat. The only way your doing that in a month and a half is dehydration, not eating, cardio and lypo to get rid of the fat. And some thing like ab ripper x to build muscle. Abs are for people who know what they're doing there is not a quick way to get them. Until you learn your not going to have them

No, sleeping sitting up will not make you lose weight. When you are asleep your body functions slow down as you are not using any energy and your body goes into 'repair mode'.

Sleeping sitting up can cause injury therefore preventing you from exercising when you wake up. This means that sleeping sitting up can actually have a reverse effect and cause you to gain weight through lack of exercise.

um dont be stupid.....you must be OBESE because that needs to be gone over with your doctor not some amateur typist giving u answers over the internet....dont be silly...you need to hire someone to go over that with you.

Quite eating junk food, work out, drink water and powerade zero;)

Enough to fit your mother through the door.

Exercise requires and uses up energy. The sugar/carbohydrates in your body/blood is converted to energy for this. This removes blood sugar from your system lowering blood sugar.

If you throw up once a day, the acid from your bile will destroy your teeth, your electrolytes will be off, (causing heart attacks and strokes) and you will get chubby cheeks,(salivary gland swelling), Irritation, inflammation, and possible rupture of the esophagus.

For some girls I know their three meals a day are three small snacks so they lose weight when they throw up... it depends on how much you eat during your three meals. I guess that if you eat small snacks you maybe could lose weight. I know this from having stains on my teeth from having epilepsy and being ill doesn't help you lose weight it just gets rid of a bit off food.
