Can you lose fat from weight training and build muscle at the same time i.e lose your gut?
Yes, in fact many bodybuilders tend to build up fat before an attempt of getting bigger muscles, seeing as the fat converts very easily into muscles.
If you purchase a chemical at your local health center called Glutamine, or any product containing amino acids you can run miles and burn tons of fat without burning any muscle whereas running would burn an intense amount of muscles as well as fat.
This makes glutamine / amino one of the most preferred substances of bodybuilders world wide. Turn fat into muscle - burn it- don't lose a pound of meat.
How can you make a girl's muscular bulky arms slimmer and more toned without becoming weaker?
push and pull, I did it with a lawn mower, Takes me about 5 hours a week , but it really works , slimmer toned strong arms.
Perform arm workouts that are high reps. Choose a weight that you can lift about 13-15 times. This will help tone the muscles.

When working out your shoulders is it bad to lift heavy weights?
Best to start out with a weight you can lift for 10-12 reps. As you progress you can lower the reps to what feels most comfortable. Everyone is different, and some can start heavier, but 10-12 reps is a good place to start.
What are the differences between women working out and men working out?
Generally, men and women have the same muscles, so the same exercises are appropriate. The differences are largely hormonal and skeletal. Because of hormonal differences, women will not develop large muscles like men. Because of skeletal differences, especially wider hips, women should be more cautious doing leg work. For example, instead of doing angled leg presses with two legs simultaneously, it is safer for women to do angled leg presses one leg at a time.

Do you need to warm up your forearms before exercising them?
Of course! Warming up the muscles makes them more flexible and elastic and this lowers the chance of the muscle getting injured, increases blood flow, and eliminates the muscles imbalance before the workout.
What is the replacement word for pubic?
The replacement word for pubic is diagnostic , meaning another word for your pubic hair (i think)
If the nerve injury has healed then it's "just" a matter of slowly starting to use the arm more and more while focusing on range of motion rather than on weight. If the nerve damage is persisting there isn't much that can be done.

Does your skin get darker and stay that way if you lift weights?
WELL IF U GET DARKER IN THE SUMMER THEN THE BEST PLACES TO GO TO GET YOUR COLOR BACK ARE PLACES WHERE IT SNOWS .... THEN YOUR COLOR WILL COME BACK FASTER...
How do you get bulky heavy weights or lighter weights?
Muscular size is not just a matter of how you train. It also critically includes your genetic endowment, diet, and rest and recovery. When training, use the heaviest possible weights without losing perfect exercise technique for the greatest muscular size. Think of the difference in response to, for example, curling a pencil 1000 times and curling a 40 lbs. dumbbell 10 times. The former won't do anything for the size of your biceps, whereas the latter may.

By 'work out' I presume you mean'take regular excercise (in a gymnasium)'. Cavemen's lifestyle was irregular, governed by the seasons and hunting conditions. They had no need of excercise, life was tough.
How do you calculate compression of metals if they cooled under -73 degree temperature?
Either the question is misworded, or more information is needed. Compression implies load; in order for a peice of metal to be loaded by a temperature change, it would need to be rigidly restrained by something with a different coefficient of thermal expansion. If you mean what is the dimensional change, that is answerable. It is as follows: (original size) X (coefficient of thermal expansion) X (temperature difference) = (change in length) You need to look up the coefficient of thermal expansion, and make sure you get the units right: /°C or /°F
When using the seated chest press machine how much can the average 15 year old lift?

What is the daily protein intake when weight training?
Assuming that you are doing an intense, whole-body strength training session twice a week, it is a good idea to increase your intake of proteins above normal. You should also be eating a protein-rich meal every three or four waking hours. This means at least five meals of at least 15 grams of proteins each time for adult females and at least 20 grams of proteins each time for adult males. Your weight is also a factor, with many sources citing about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. It is best to get your protein from natural sources such as (unless you are vegetarian) grass-fed organic beef or sockeye (wild) salmon, but protein shakes with whey protein are fine.
In order not to get fat eating so frequently, decrease your daily carbohydrate intake. Avoid all processed (refined) carbohydrates (see the list further down this page) and keep your total carbohydrate intake below 80 grams. This will switch your body from burning sugar (all carbohydrates when digested become sugar) to burning fat, which will improve your appearance, how you feel, and make you healthier. For more information about how to build muscle or alternatively how to build muscle and burn fat, see the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
Do lifting heavy weights stop you from growing?
Yes, because when you squat alot your bones get compact and you will eventually stop growing
If you are still growing now, lifting heavy weights won't actually stop you from growing so much as cause joint, muscular, skeletal, and general problems with your physical development.
Young people still developing shouldn't attempt weights until it's certain they've stopped growing. The complications from weighlifting at too early an age can be absolutely miserable: better to be taller than you might like than in pain and with restricted movement.
If you feel you are too tall, try concentrating on being as healthy as possible so that you look really good, even if you'd like to be shorter. As you mature you'll quite likely discover all kinds of advantages to being tall.
Here are opinions:
It's best to run and lift weights at opposite ends of the day. For example, run in the morning and lift weights in the evening. Do whatever you are comfortable with. If you want to develop muscle then train with weights when you have the most energy.
Always do weight training or anaerobic exercises first. By running or working out aerobically first your muscles will not be at maximum capacity when you try to lift your weights, which is very important if you want to get maximum results ASAP.
According to University Profs from University of Alberta, an individual should develop their strength and power base before working on their cardiovascular endurance. * For in-depth information about how to combine cardio exercise and weight training, see the page link, further down this page, listed under "Related Questions."
Inside your muscles you have stored sugars wich are called glycogen, when you weight train or run for example you use this glycogen store as energy. now.... when you run for example it takes about 20 minutes for the human body to deplete these stores of glycogen as energy before it has to then find new sources of energy within the body. more often then not, your body will then tap into your "stored" energy supplies wich is..... you guessed it, FAT, FAT is excess energy wich has been stored around your body for later use, now back to the point, if your weight training and running for weight loss and muscle gain, using for example what ive said above, it would be far more beneficial to weight train before doing a cardio vascular workout because, you are using your bodys glycogen supply BEFORE you start running, this means it will take less time for your body to then tap into other energy systems and deplete them. (body fat for example) and then eventually aiding you in reaching your final goal. do bear in mind however it can also make you far more tired then doing it the other way around for the pure fact that you are depleting such an important energy system before the end of your workout, (ever wonder why your body shakes and feels weak after a hard weight training session? that's because your muscles are runnning low on glycogen "sugar" so that's why glucose power drinks help to replenish depleted supplies!)
A teacher once said in nursing school that if you use hormones or other muscles building "pill" techniques then muscle will not be lost if you stop taking the "pill" but it will be harder for you to work out and continue building muscle unless you work twice as hard at it because the hormone makes it easier for you to gain muscle.
maybe alot of the 10 pounds is probably water weight
