How is exercise oxygen debt repaid?

In the liver, some of the lactic acid is oxidized to produce energy. This energy is used up to convert the lactic acid back to glucose. Lactic acid is toxic and cannot be stored or kept in our body for too long. When lactic acid is used up, oxygen debt is being paid.

What is the weight equivalent of a water noodle in water aerobics?

I asked myself the same question as it relates to additional boyancy for my small 10' Jon boat - I want to increase boyancy. Best I can determine is to use the area formulia for a cylinder - pie x radius squared times length - example - large noodle is approx 6 inches in diam. or 3.14 x 3 x 3 x 72 inches or 2035 cubic inches. There is 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot. Salt water weighs 64 pounds and fresh water weighs 62 pounds / cu ft. There is 1.178 cu ft in my example therefor it will displace a little more than 70 pounds of water. In the case of my boat one noodle will increase the capacity about 70 pounds - in your case if you weigh 170 pounds the net effect is like weighing 100 pounds. In case you are wondering - the specific gravity of a human in water is about 1.1 - it doesnt take much to be neutral boyant after you consider the water you will displace. Hope this helps - do the math for your noodle - you will be close. tuxedojk@AOL.com

What does plantar faciitis mean?

It is a painful condition in the heels of the feet (it can affect one only). It has something to do with layers of tissue moving over one another. Usually the movement is free; when the fascia (tissue layers) move less freely, it can cause a very bad dull pain. I had this in my left heel, and it could be so bad in the morning that I would have to limp. Acupuncture was very effective. I had 3 treatments a few months ago, and have been almost totally pain free since. I didn't much care for the treatments as they were being done, but I would go back in a heartbeat. Plantar Fasciitis is a very common cause of heel pain. It is inflammation of the plantar fascia of the foot. It causes heel pain which may radiate to the toes. It can occur as a result of repetitive microtrauma. It's an overuse injury. Plantar fasciitis is commonly caused by a heel spur which is a bony growth that occurs at the attachment of the plantar fascia to calcaneum. for details, visit,http://physiocures.blogspot.com

Why are water aerobics less stress ful on the body's joints than regular aerobics?

It is because of Archimede's Principle. The buoyancy of the object takes off some of your weight, so it is less stressful underwater. Like if you put an object in a glass filled to the brim with water, some water would spill. But if you could gather all that water together, and weigh it, that would be the buoyancy of the the object.
