Exercise

True. The Valsalva Maneuver involves expiring against a closed glottis and when combined with contracting muscles of the abdomen and ribcage creates rigidity in the entire torso.

the term is usually expirienced in walking or running

In order to lose one pound, you must create a deficit of 3,500 calories, so to lose five pounds, you would need to burn five times as many calories, or 17,500 calories. The number of calories you will burn by walking depends on your weight and the speed at which you walk. At a moderate pace of 3 miles per hour, most people will burn between 60 and 70 calories per mile. Therefore, to lose five pound by walking alone, you'll need to walk at least 250 miles.

No it does not, but it makes them look like they are longer

Zero. Modern gasoline engined cars have no warm-up time requirement. Diesels, and air-cooled engines have various requirements.

Without consistent strength training, muscle size and strength decline with age. An inactive person loses 1/2 pound of muscle per year after age 20. After age 60, this rate of loss doubles. But, muscle loss is not inevitable. With regular strength training, muscle mass can be preserved throughout the lifespan, and the muscle lost can be rebuilt. Source: SparkPeople.com

Depends on a lot of things, your age, your gender, your fitness level, how hard you ride to start with.

I'd use up 3500 cals in about 60 miles, but I'm an experienced rider and I ride fairly hard. 90 miles or even more is probably more normal for using up 3500 cals.

Watts are basically a measure of effort, or how hard you're working. Keeping track of how many watts you can generate, and for how long is a good way of measuring if you're getting fitter.

hold your breath and push like you do when your stretching in a morning. Push really hard and the nlood pressure will make them pop out (: email me with how you go maccatak@hotmail.com

Half your body weight(90 pounds)

Not sure but the link below has a lot of good free information

If a woman weighing 166 lbs. walks at a leisurely pace of 2.5 mph she will burn 113 calories in 30 minutes. 30 minutes of a moderate pace, similar to that of walking a dog, will burn 124 calories.

bench 3 days per week. do three sets of 8 it will go up

no problem

you need to do other exercises though.

squatts deadlifts chin ups or pull ups bent over rows

clean and jerk

this will thicken you all over.

About 100 times a day

Actually that's way above average, but its obvious that you lift. Most people don't know what a standing military press is.

Yes it is. After a hard workout your body needs to recover in order for it to build and repair muscle. However I do recommend that you take in a snack with protein and carbohydrates right after your workout. You need that additional protein to help your recovery process. It does not have to be heavy. In fact, many people recommend drinking a cup of chocolate milk because it has the right balance of protein and carbohydrates. Some other examples are crackers and cheese, fruits and nuts, yogurt, and nut butters.

The objective is to score a perfect score, which is a 10, on all 4 events. The events are floor, beam, bars, and vault for women.

Aerobic (meaning with air) exercise primarily works your cardio vascular system, like aerobics, biking or running. Anerobic (without air) is like weightlifting

Milk is a protein rich drink and it is best useful when consumed after a workout session (Lifting weights)

After a workout, our muscles would be in catabolic state and providing them with sufficient energy and proteins is very essential to ensure that our muscles grow in size and shape. If we fail to provide the necessary nutrition, we can expect muscles to shrink instead of grow.

Milk and other protein rich foods like eggs, cashews, protein powders etc can be considered for a post-workout diet.

In general, vegetables are more important than fruits. It's best to consume a variety of (preferably organic) vegetables and fruits. Remember that the commercially grown fruits available today are not the same as the wild fruits our ancestors ate tens of thousands of years ago. Therefore, they are not what our species evolved eating. In other words, we are not designed to eat them. In general, today they are much larger, sweeter, and juicier; they have thinner skins and more carbohydrates.

All (whether simple or complex) carbohydrates when digested become sugar. If you eat too much fruit, you are in danger of accumulating too much body fat. Instead of using fat for fuel, if you eat too much fruit your body is in danger of using sugar for fuel (using sugar for fuel is a major part of the explanation for today's epidemic of obesity).

Having several different kinds of fruits daily is a good idea, but don't eat too much fruit. A good rule is to eat twice as many varieties of vegetables daily as you do fruits. So, for example, if you eat six servings of different kinds of vegetables daily, eat three or fewer servings of different kinds of fruits. The fact is that you don't need to eat any fruit to be in excellent health. For fruit calorie and a fruit carbohydrate charts, which you may print out if you wish to and use as daily guides, see the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

Depends on how many times you lift it. Once doesn't use up enough to matter either way. You'd have to keep going, continuously, for the better part of an hour to achieve anything. Weight loss and calorie burn through exercise is mainly about getting and keeping your heart rate up. And pretty much all kinds of consistent activites, like running, bicycling, swimming, dancing etc etc does a better job of keeping your heart rate up than lifting weights does. If you can lift weights at a high enough intensity and long enough to match the pulse rate and duration of a run, they you'll burn the same amount of calories. But odds are you can't. I can do around 1000 cal/hour during intense cardio, but find it really difficult to get past 600 while doing weight training. Keep in mind that the big thing is your diet. If you are overeating it's pretty much impossible to exercise hard enough to lose anything that way. A snack that takes 5 minutes to eat, like a cupcake, can take one hour to burn off.
