Why are fats not the body's preferred exercise fuel?

Because cells use sugar not fat and therefore the fat needs to be converted back to sugars before it can be used.

Whats difference between eccentric and concentric muscle contractions and examples of when in use?

Eccentric and Concentric contractions are both types of Isotonic Contraction. In isotontic contractions the length of a muscle changes, ie movement occurs, unlike an Isometric Contraction where force is applied but no movement occurs. Concentric contraction is the more obvious type of sixe change a muscle can have, it is when the muscle Shortens to move the Load. For example id one was to bend the elbow whilslt holding a weight (called a Bicep Curl) the Brachialis and, to a lesser extent, the Biceps Brach would shorten and pull the forearm up with the weight. Eccentric contracion is the type that muslce builder who wish to bulk up with inefficient muscle use. This is where the muscle Lengthens under conrtaction. To continue the same example above, imagine the weight was too heavy to hold up so it starts to fall under control. The brachialis and biceps muscles are still contracting trying to hold the weight in place but they are not producing enough force so the load is stretching them out.

Can you make skinny legs bigger with exercises?

Sure can! Go to the gym and talk over a training program with them. I use pressure exercises to keep my legs in shape. The exercises where you sit back and press weights. Working with weights will strengthen your muscles and muscle weighs a lot. I eat a well balance diet as well and protein is essential. Give it a try, you may really like it and it doesn't take long to see the results.

Good luck Marcy

Would exercise and a healthier diet cause your period to be late or early?

Yes, it is possible. Women who are into strenuous sports can often have periods that come early, late or even skipped periods. Ballerinas and other dancers have this problem as well. If you are just generally exercising and on a good diet (that means protein, wheat, poultry, etc., etc. and 8 - 10 glasses of water a day) you will probably level out in a few months with more regular periods.

Can you lose weight without exercise?

Yes. You could try liposuction or weight loss surgery, but exercising together with watching what you eat is definitely the most effective way to lose weight.

If you are unable to exercise, or too heavy to exercise comfortably, you can improve your eating habits and lose weight through dietary changes alone but it will require more effort. With or without exercise, losing body fat requires effort.

If you are too heavy to exercise, simply begin with gentle walking for a few minutes. Try to walk a little further every day. Some exercise, even gentle exercise, will help to burn calories.

Why would an increase in stroke volume lead to a drop in resting heart rate?

I may be guessing here but I am thinking with an increase in stroke volume you body is getting more volume per beat ... therefore it compensates by lowering the heart rate. if your pump is more efficient then you body doesn't need your heart to pump as often. That's the only rationale i can think would cause it!

How does muscular strength help in horse riding?

You need toned fit muscles for riding well. Anyone can hop on a horse and say they can ride, but that's not true. To ride well you must be physically able to do it for long periods of time and fit muscles help you do that. Core muscles and Leg muscles are particularly important as they help you balance and stay in the saddle when jumping or moving quickly.

What causes your muscles to become fatigued or cramped when you exercise too vigorously?

Fatigued muscle

When you exercised, a pain called ischemic pain occurs. A major cause of fatigued muscle is inorganic phosphate, its concentration in your skeletal muscle increases during intense exercise due to the broken down of Crp and may be a leading cause of fatigued muscle.

Contrary to popular belief, lactic acid does not cause muscle fatigue. Lactic acid is washed away by the bloodstream to the liver, and is converted into pyruvic acid and then to CO2 and water. Also, your muscles do not use oxygen in cellular respiration, so they cannot be deprived of it. You will still die without O2 though, because all other cells use it. That "need oxygen" feeling that you get when you exercise is actually caused by your need of oxygen to convert the lactic acid in the liver into pyruvic acid

Muscle spasms or cramps

Cramps that occurred in the night after a intense exercise are call Nighttime calf cramp, as a result of contracting the calf muscles by suddenly pointing your toes or by lying with the feet in that position. As you exercised strenuously earlier in the day, your muscles may tighten while you sleep and hence cramp.

Athletes' cramps occur during intense exercise for several reasons. The imbalance of minerals called electrolytes (potassium and sodium) in our blood, which often results from excess sweating (dehydration) may cause muscles spasms. Another common cause is overexertion during exercise, marked by excessive tightening or the muscles and/or a build-up of lactic acid in them.

What causes ear pain when I exercise in cold air?

it has to do with the muscles tightening and putting pressure on the eustachian tube. It's really annoying, isn't it. I've found that stretching my neck, not away from the side with the ear problem, but towards it and experimenting with keeping it there or massage will sometimes open it.

Ive just been doing exercise and have the same problem, so i was looking online for a reason and a cure.. All the stuff i have come across seems to point to the same thing.. air pressure. Every time you swallow, some air goes up the eustachian tubes and into the middle ear and gets absorbed by the membranous lining. But sometimes the tube gets blocked so the air inside the middle ear gets used up and this pulls the eardrum tight.. which is the pain.

Some people just happen to have smaller eustachian tubes than others. So when your exercising, you breath more air and swallow more and this can cause a blockage..thus causing the pain.

It is possible when you are running; you may be keeping the mouth closed and heavily breathing from the nose. At times, during this phase sometimes there is an increase in the pressure of air in the space behind the nose and pharynx, which may temporarily block your Eustachian tube. Try some different breathing exercises or you may try using some nasal drops before you start to run. This may help this unique complaint

Your problem is highly suspicious for Temporal Mandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJ). Ear pain not associated with hearing loss during exercise, especially in cold temperatures, causes jaw joint area spasm, which is commonly felt as pain referred to the ear. Heat and sometimes a mouth guard similar to those worn by football players should solve your problem.

How can girls get six packs?

Muscle training should be avoided, so as to avoid stunting growth, but cardiovascular sports like running, swimming, lacrosse and even dance would be a healthy way to lose tummy fat.

In this way will the natural abdomen be more exposed.

That is true but it is possible for an 11 year old girl to have abs because i have them(i bet you won't believe me) and i didn't even know i had abs for a long time. I have mine because I am really athletic and all that stuff. I even have very muscular legs and i have lots of arm muscle.

So it is possible and you pretty much just need to work out and eat right and do lot of sports.
