Simple exercise which reduce heart rate and Blood Pressure?

To reduce heart rate at rest you need to do endurance training. Start with long, brisk walks, then pick up the pace until you're jogging. Aim to keep going for 45 minutes to one hour. When that is starting to bore you, add some speed training. Once warmed up, run flat out to the next lamp post or something(you want to do bursts of 30-60 seconds) then slow to your regular pace and continue. Once you've recovered - do another burst. Repeat for the whole run.

How does a person's level of physical activity affect his or her daily energy needs?

If a person exercises for 2-3 hours a day, he would require more energy compared to a guy who doesn't exercise. This is because. the more exercise/physical activity you do, the increased amount of energy you use. Therefore, your body would need to replenish that used energy. This is done by increasing his/hers daily energy needs. A person who doesn't exercise would have a lower energy need as they don't use that much energy compared to an athlete.

What is isometric movement?

Isotonic contraction results in shortening of the muscle, leading to movement.

In Isometric contraction, as the name implies, there is no change in length of the muscle. Thus, it can't lead to any movement.

However, Isometric contraction adds or removes power from a movement, thus facilitating or retarding it.

This, facilitation and retardation itself gives us a feeling of movement, for example walking, even in the total absence of actual movement i.e. walking.

This feeling of movement induced by isometric contraction is known as Isometric movement.

We use isometric movements in thinking and dreaming.

Are Rebok zigs running shoes?

Yes they are a great running shoe. I would recommend the pulse II's or the sonics for running because those feel the best and give you the least amount of stress on key muscles in your legs. Reebok makes the zigtechs for training too. Just remember to ask at the store what shoe would suit you the best. The only problem I have had with zigtechs are thet they dont last very long mine ripped within a couple months.

Why are hyper-extended legs good for ballet?

Hyper-extended legs have a good side, and a bad side. First, the bad side (sorry haha) the bad side is that if they are too hyper-extended, a lot of tension can build up in your knees and that makes it painful to bend and straighten or have your leg straight for a long period of time. Over hyper-extended legs can also increase your chances of breaking or stress fracturing which can lead to breaking. You have to be careful and take good care of your knees if you have hyper-extends.

Now come the good part. C: The good news is is that your feet look really nice (the way the arch). They make your feet look a lot more pointed and they make your legs look longer. Hope that helps :)

What kind of exercise should you do before a warm up?

Firstly forget the phrase 'warm up', any movement is exercise and puts varying stresses on the body. Each workout should start with mobility work which starts very light and progresses in intensity as the joints, musculature and core body temp rises. Mobility is not a quick static stretch (i.e. Stretch the quads and hold), it is a set of 10 or so reps of a (usually bodyweight) movement such as a prisoner squat or hip flexion exercise...or even using a foam roller. Try to cover all the main movements of the body and joints. If you think about it why come in from the cold and then start a stressfull exercise such as running without taking every joint through its ranges of motion? You wouldn't start your car on a cold day and then rev the engine to full for 20 min and expect it to last long would you!

Why are the soles on childrens running shoes not as good as the ones on adult running shoes?

It is very common for kids' athletic shoes to have non-marking rubber outsoles. These special rubber compounds protect gym floors, courts and other surfaces from sole marks. They do not always perform as well as the regular soles on most adult athletic shoes, but are preferrable because kids can use them at schools and other facilities requiring them.

How can you learn to do a split in one week?

You have to stretch daily and hold your stretches long enough to improve you. It also depends where you are on your splits. If you are an inch from the ground then u can learn it in a week. If u are 10 inches from the ground it might take a little longer then 1 week.

OR; You can open you're legs into a second position and get up against the wall. Then just try to get closer and closer to the wall and hopefully that can stretch out your legs enough to do the split. But like that comment above, just keep on stretching and find out how close you are to the ground (:

What better football or cross country?

Football works out more muscles, and cross country is really boring.

Depends what you see as fun, cross country is more of a manly sport though cause not everyone can run 7 miles nearly everyday. Football is fun unless you're a scrub who has never played before. Also in football you work a lot on upper body

--------------------------------------------------------------------

The upper answer isn't really helpful, since they're obviously into football so are knocking the other sport. Anyways here, football and cross-country are both very good sports. They both do wonders.

Cross-country builds up you lower muscles, breathing. Football does upper strength.

But, cross-country has no breaks, no half times, and no time outs. If you enter a race, you can't stop. It's all about distance and how into shape you are.

Football, all you really need to know is how to attack and how to throw a ball...... I'm kidding, I'm kidding. Football is hard depending on how tough the other team is, or how hard your coach trains you. Same with cross-country.

So really you decide which would be better for you, football or cross-country.
