Diet Fitness Questions and Answers

How to get rid of man boobs and fat around my body?

I am 13, turning 14 soon. I am overweight and have man boobs. I am very embarrassed by them and tend to hunch over to hide them. This is very bad for my back and I need to get rid of my man boobs. I have a large body build and feel I could have a really nice buff figure if i worked out. I am trying to get a weight lifting machine thing, not exactly sure of the name of those. I'm hoping that would help me become stronger, lose fat, and get rid of these annoying man boobs. Does anyone have any opinions on how to get rid of them AND become more muscular at the same time? Are there any exercises I could do with a weight lifting machine that would help me? I can barely do a push-up... Pathetic, I know. So, I was looking for an alternative?

Answers: At your age it might take years for your chemical makeup to kick in and I doubt if your parents would permit liposuction.
But bench presses curls running and a high fiber diet may do the trick . Your hormonal balance may be more than you can counter but a competent Dr. should no what you need if you are deficient for some medical reason . See the family physician and by all means bring it up to him as he might not offer his expertise otherwise.

cardio (run/jog/walk) to get rid of fat

do pushups/situps/etc - start with as many as you can, over time you will be able to do many in one sitting.

I'm trying to lose weight too and it's sooo hard. My aunt is using a weight loss product and it's really working for her. I'm gonna try it and I recommend you try it too. Check their website at
http://www.thin-get.info , my aunt got a free trial and paid only $6.95 shipping and handling.

Buddy, first of all don't be embarrassed, it happens to the best of us. You should really think about checking out places like http://www.fitnesscamps.net/ or typing in google search terms like weight loss camp for kids, and try it out. I know these places get a bad rap as being for extremely big individuals but that's not the case. You shouldn't feel weird or bad about bettering your life. so i say you should check it out, learn a thing or two about nutrition like the stuff they preach at most of these places, and then reap the benefits. I know high school can be tough buddy, but don't worry about it, you'll se sooner than later. When i was 14 I ran a 9 minute mile. Actually a 9:07 mile and by the time i was a junior, I was running a 5:15 mile. Big difference eh? Good things are in your future, and you should be proud of realizing that you want to change. And go for it man. Good luck on your quest!

Is there a possibility I may be over exercising? or is this routine fine for me?

Answers: You may be overexercising a little. You should also put exercises that work the same type of muscles together. Example: Monday-chest/upper back, Wednesday-arms,legs
Friday- core. If you put these exercises together like this you wont have to worry about being sore because you will be resting while you work other muscles. Mon., Wed., Fri., Sat., Sun., would probably be better for you and you should still be able to get in your workouts.

I think you need more than one day of rest. Also, doing the exercises seperate from each other would be advantageous compared to doing them all at the same time. Your post-exercising metabolism while resting is much higher than your normal resting metabolism.

Anyone heard of this?

Just curious, has anyone heard of drinking Diet Sodas making your body "crave" carbs or sweets and in return causing weight gain? Any insight is helpful, thanks in advance.

Answers: Yes.

Go to www.mercola.com and search for aspartame.

Enjoy.

Kev

yes.. studies have show that people who consumed diet soda vs regular soda drinkers gained more weight per year.
I saw it on the news. Honestly I think both are bad. Stick with water and juices 100%.

Yes, recent news stated diet sodas do produce weight gain.

Which is the best creatine in the market?

Answers: My good lord I have seen some nonsense on here! I just would not be able to name all the studies which back creatine, for strength, power and endurance because there are so many! If we are going to give advice at least do some research!

Sorry about that. Creatine comes in many forms, some are better used with protein and some are better on their own. Whatever way you use creatine, it is important that you use it in cycles of 12 weeks using creatine, 4 weeks off it. That way the body utilises the creatine effectively and can also assimilate it from natural sources.

The most common form of creatine in supplement form is creatine monohydrate. You can find it in powder and pill form. Because of its neutrality, it mixes well with protein powders.

There are other forms out there, creatine pyruvate, citrillate and creatine ethyl ester. These are more potent forms of creatine and are absorbed by the body more effectively. Ethyl ester can be found at similar prices to monohydrate.

Recently, creatine products have had alkaline solutions added to them. The advantage is that almost all the creatine is absorbed by the muscle cells with hardly any bloating and water retention. This is a little more expensive.

Natural sources of creatine can be found in lean red meat.

Follow the dosage and remember to cycle your usage to get the full benefits of creatine.

best creatine.. you mean the cheapest? then i don't know. just shop around.

if "best creatine" you mean the quality? i think that's kind of a weird question.. creatine is creatine. it's all the same.

that's kind of like saying "where can i get the best Vitamin A?"

just make sure it says "100% creatine extract" on it. if it says that, then you're good :)

creatine isnt really the best thing to take. it isnt good for you and if you stop taking it, your muscles will shrink a lttle. take whey protein or smeothing

Quickest way to lose a few pounds?

I need to drop about 7 pounds. What is the quickest way to do this without stripping me of sugar? I've stopped with candy, I just need my sugar for my ice tea and hot tea.
Thanks for your advice :)

Answers: Increase your water intake. Water helps us shed that natural bloat we carry around. Women have on average 5-10 pounds of water gain throughout the month. Drinking 6-8 glasses (or more) a day will help your skin look better, help you drop a few pounds quickly, and will help your body rid itself of some of the toxins it carries.

Also, another rule of thumb - always stop eating just before you are full. Too often we eat more than we should because we still aren't full - but it takes time to get to our tummies. Even if that means leaving just a spoonful of our side dish, that is calories we can easily spare.

have you tried just using lemon instead?
exercise and drinking lots of water will help too.

Drink lots and lots of water.

i know everyone says dont do it but low carbs help u lose the weight fast! and exercise 3 times a week and u should drop at least 5lbs in one month
i do it all the time...:) and it works!!

eat breakfast then dont eat anything till 12 noon, then 5 o clock and a small snack or treat in evening sounds hard, but its working for me ive lost loads, also keep a food diary.makes you feel guilty when cheating.

7 lbs is not that signifigant of weight loss, if you loose it will most likely be water weight and you will gain it right back.

5lbs. in one month doing low carb?
Then your not doing it right, its more like 5 lbs in a week, but theres no sugar in low carb unless you can use splenda some people dont like the taste though.

you should ask the fittness line or whatever way to talk to them and eat vegies and do dayly walks if you have a dog go walk and play with it and go to gym or buy a fittness kit of some sort that gets your upper, middle and lower ribs. i think its the ribs .
hope this helps and sorry for spelling mastakes if i have one or more. and maybe not making sanse

ok.. only use sugar for those two things..

No Fried foods! It's a diet killer
Drink lots of water
also eat smaller meals throughout the day .. it keeps your metabolism moving... I didn't do that because I didn't have the time or money to cook that much lol

Carbs: brown rice, whole wheat pasta
Vegetables: as many as you want:)
Proteins: Tuna, Chicken, Lean meats

Pilates: is the best .. check out link below.. This Cd collection changed my life.. It's called more than matt pilates .. get the three cd's beg-advanced..

I spent thousands of dollars on a trainer and got no where..

here are my stats to prove:

Before:
Weight: 137 LBS
Height: 5'5"
Bust: 36"
Waist: 28"
Hips: 37"
Thighs: 21 1/2

After:

Weight: 112lbs
Height: 5'5" didn't change
Bust: 32"
Waist: 24"
Hips: 33"
Thighs: 19"

One word: EXERCISE. If you are not burning calories, all you will do is gain weight - no matter what sort of "diet" you try. And if you starve yourself - i.e., stop eating - you will simply gain weight when you do eat.

The human body has this defense mechanism. It will actually store nutrients as "fat" after it has been starved - just in case it is starved again at a later time. Your best bet is to simply exercise while eating a BALANCED diet.

Oh, and the "need" to drop 7 pounds... If it's just to "look good", that's the wrong reason.

Since I started to work out I was looking for a good weight loss product. I was on a diet but I felt that I needed a little "help" so I decided to try this great product and I had fantastic results. You can check their website at
http://www.health-thin.info , they give you a free trial and you only pay $6.95 shipping and handling.

When can you buy/ take slimming pills?

i am 15 coming up 16 and i hate my size i don't do exercise as no one will do it with me but i eat healthy mostly fruit and veg i am overweight for my age i don't know if i am overweight for my height that is why i am also looking for a weight (stones and pounds) and height chart also how old do you have to be to join a gym?

Answers: you should be 18 but the pills really don't work unless you exercise with them

Okay...Here we go!

This is my theory and this is what works for me. Everyone is different so it may need to be adjusted to your own personal needs.

Energy In/Energy Out

Food Intake: 1,200 Per Day

One Pound equals 3,500 Calories

To loose one pound per day, You need to burn your food intake plus your one pound of fat

1,200 (intake) + 3,500 (Outtake) = 4,700 Calories Burn

You must burn at least 4,700 Calories everyday to loose one pound atleast. It is very easy to go up and beyond 4,700 calories each day.

Best way to do this is to track your progress on a calorie counter monitor watch. If you do it by the numbers you can loose the weight. It is just a matter of changing the way you think about weight loss.

Once you start wearing your calorie counter you can see the numbers increase and you fill find yourself doing extra things in your day, like tapping your foot while witing at the light in your car, chewing gum, singing outloud and so on ontop of your workout routines. You begin to see that everything you do in your day contributes to the overall numbers needed to loose that pound.

I myself have done this recently. Two weeks later, I lost one pant size and 10 pounds.

I personally burn 1,000 calories by Walking in my community for one hour in the morning and I also burn 1,000 calories by simply playing xbox while playing tetrus. I get so involved in playing xbox that I completely forget I am pedaling or working out. Think about it..How many hours have you spent playing video games..why not burn calories while you are doing it.

Water Intake/Less Storage

Most people do not get enough water in their system. Water is your body's principal chemical component, comprising, on average, 60 percent of your weight. Every system in your body depends on water. For example, water flushes toxins out of vital organs, carries nutrients to your cells and provides a moist environment for ear, nose and throat tissues.

Lack of water can lead to dehydration, a condition that occurs when you don't have enough water in your body to carry out normal functions. To determine if you are getting enough water use this simple formula.. Take your weight, for example 150 pounds and divide by 2. Take your answer which is 75 lbs and change it to ounces, in this case 75 ounces. That is how many ounces of water you need a day. Your body performs mostly on water. If you make sure you get enough water everyday your body will perform at top notch and your body will no longer have the cravings of junk food. You will have a better performing body system to help you work out and feel better thru out your day.

Good Food

My favorite things to eat:

Avacado Wraps

Simple: Low Carb Tortilla, Half Avacdo sliced, alpha sprouts, lettuce, soy bacon...Just wrap it up and eat. You can vary the things you put inside so long as you keep it to approx 4 or 5 items. You want to make sure they are fresh, low calorie and filling. Avacado and mushrooms can replace meats in your meal and still have great taste.

Special K Cereals are fantastic. They have that sweetness that one craves and is so good for you. Calories are low. Great for even just dinner.

First thing in the morning...A Glass of Chocolate Milk. Yup!! Chocolate Milk. We all crave that "got to have" item in the morning. Milk is the best thing you can have for yourself while working out. The chocolate (and you can use Carnation Instant Milk for this but I simply use Nestle dry mix) will give you that sweet "snack" that you need. If you give your body a little bit of it and its in a control way, you will not crave sweets and junk the rest of the day.

Lean Cusines

Fantastic food! Each meal is approx 180 t0 380 calories per box. So think about your calories. 1,200...You can still have several of these meals a day and still be under your intake requirements.

Its all amout the numbers and watching what you take in and what you burn out. And you know what..if you go over your 1,200 mark for food intake...thats okay...you simple up your total calories burned for the day by what you took it. So long as you burn off the over all calories to be more than your food intake. Just make sure you stick too it so you can reach your weight loss goals.

Fruits and Veggies

All you want on the schedule listed below.
Banana's are my favorite. They are very filling and can make a meal all on their own.

____

Vitamins

My favorite is ONE A DAY WITH ENERGY...I am in love with this vitamin because I am just like everyone else who loves those quick fix energy drinks. But what people do not realise is that energy drinks can contain 120 to 440 calories in just ONE Can. If you think about it..That is HALF of your allowed calories for food intake. The best alternative I have found is One a day with energy vitamin. Easy to spot, it is packaged in a green label bottle. Just One vitamin a day will give you as much energy as approx. 1 1/2 cans of red bull...WITHOUT the calorie intake.
WoW..now your making progress already because you have made more room in your intake calories for actual healthy food.

_____

Soda/Carbination

Carbination is terrible for your system because it bloats your stomach. And when your stomach bloats, your jeans just don't fit. You can drop one pant size simply by NOT drinking any carbinated drinks all together..Take away the bloat and you have instantly just made it one pant size lower. Besides, Sodas dehydrate you and with that One a Day Vitamin, you won't need the Caffenie in the soda and it will also cut out those extra calories that you don't need.
So remove that soda and the energy drinks and just think how much calories you just instantly removed from your daily intake. I normally consume what...four sodas and two energy drinks in one day...that is a total of .... 900 calories..Of what? Nothing...Those are horrible calories and calories that can be replaced by food which will fuel your body for your day and your workouts.

____

Your Body

Your body is like a computer. You must program your body to do what it is suppose to do so it won't crash and leave you with a virus. Your stomach is only the size of your fist. So think about it right now, Look at your hand and close your fist. Not very big is it. That is how much food you actually ONLY need to eat, each time you eat for every meal. If you eat anything more than that, you will stretch out your stomach which causes overeating and overweight.

What you need to do is eat every three hours, approx 5 to 7 times everyday around the same time. If you are always giving your body healthy and better food choices (the size of your fist) every three hours, your body will know you are giving it food. It will use that food properly. It will not go into starvation mode or store food away for later because it knows...it will get more in three hours. So what does your body do...it flushes everything out of your system because it doesn't need it.. I Now knows...you wont' forget about it and that food is on its way.

____

Walking Buddy

This is the best thing especially for woman. Get a walking buddy. One hour everyday. Just think about how much talking, venting and laughing two woman can do together while walking and yup, you guessed it...it just burns more calories and reduces your stress. You now are more relaxed because you can talk and free yourself of whatever is frustrating you while getting into shape.

Increase breadth of body?

Whenever I try and wear a shirt, the sleeves come down to my forearms, or near. I've tried smaller shirts, but when I find one that has sleeves that are good length on my arm, the rest is too small, meaning I'm too tall. It's not tight or anything. The thing I want to try and fix is the breadth of my body, i'm like a twig. Just now, to help, I doodled up this body picture, it looks very bad, but shows the idea of my problem http://i184.photobucket.com/albums/x275/...
I want broader shoulders, is that a natural body thing, with the bone? Or is it muscle? It also shows a broader rib cage, is that just muscle too? Or the bones there just broad? If there is a way to get my entire upper body reigon braoder, what exercises should I do? I have 2 dumbells just so you know, bench presses are out of the question. Thanks for any help.

Answers: Ok Andrew,

How old are you? Under 20- stick to body weight exercises.

2 exercises- push ups and chin ups.

Give this 2 weeks and you'll know your doing the right thing.

Find out how may push ups you can do straight- lets call this 'push up max'. Do the same for chin ups, this is 'chin up max'

Now, every day, do several sets of 1/2 of your max. So if you can do 20 push ups, do 10 push ups -several times a day. Do the same with the chin ups.

This gives your body a REASON TO GROW.

Just do ot mate.

Kev

Answers: One word: EXERCISE. Walking, bicycle riding, running, sports, etc. EXERCISE.

And no junk food.

Take a look at your diet...

if you want to lose weight.. eliminate the following items from your diet and see what happens:

1. Sugar: You'll see a big difference in your body/ mind
2. Fried foods: are the worst! believe me.. No Mc Donalds
3. Soda: same as sugar... even diet soda is bad.. just drink low sugar juices / they say lite on the bottle and water.. seltzer water is good too...

Exercise a bit... try to do at least 30 minutes of some physical activity a day.. make it fun!

good luck

Hi,

I've tried so many different diets in the last 10 years that I can say now, they don't work!
A few months ago, I came across a great product for weight loss and like many others I was skeptical about it. But I really wanted to lose weight and I tried it. The results were excellent and I lost 20 pounds in 2 months. I felt fantastic and I dropped another 5 pounds safely. That's why I recommend you check this product at http://www.fit-thin.info where they have a free trial and you only pay $6.95 shipping and handling.
Good luck!

Does eating chili have any health benefits?

I want to know if chili peppers have good or bad effects on a person's health.

Answers: Flavor Improvement

Growing popularity of ethnic foods, especially spicy foods, has had a major impact on chili usage. The trend for reduce-fat food has also contributed to the growth of using hot spices. Since both flavor and textures are affected when fat is removed from foods, spices can help compensate for flavor loss. As people consume more" heat", they need more to get the same sensation. As the population ages, they will be adding more spices to their food. The reason for this is that as aging occurs, physiologically the sense of taste changes and more spices are needed to get the same level of flavor that was tasted when being younger.

The Heat Factor

The hotness of chili peppers is often measured on a scale devised by pharmacist Wilbur Scoville in 1912. Sweet bell peppers have zero Scoville units, jalapenos measure about 5,000 and fiery Habanero a whopping 250,000 to 300,000. Capsaicin, the pungent principle of chili peppers (Capsicum), has been shown to produce health benefits. The capsaicinoids represent a group of natural products that are vanillylamides of monocarboxylic acids of varying chain lengths from C-8 to C-11 and of varying degrees of unsaturation. Capsaicinoids are found in extracts of the fruit (peppers) of the Capsicum species, with high amounts being found in the well-known chili pepper. Capsaicin is the most widely-studied capsaicinoid.

Reduced Blood Clot Incidence

Long used as a food spice and an aid to digestion, red chilies or cayenne peppers were once thought to aggravate stomach ulcers. This fear has been discounted by researchers who became excited by studies that indicated that capsicum could help prevent the formation of dangerous blood clots. Now new research is focusing on this spices ability to act as an anti-inflammatory agent, and aid in controlling pain.

Researchers in Thailand first noticed that people who consume large amounts of red chili peppers experienced a lower incidence of thrombo-embolism, or potentially dangerous blood clots. Scientists then looked at the medical records of countries where hot spicy foods were regularly consumed, and found that people who eat a diet high in red peppers experience a much lower incidence of blood clotting diseases. Scientists have now concluded that capsicum does indeed possess fibrinolytic activity, meaning that it is able to break down blood clots.

Pain Relief

In addition to preventing the formation of blood clots, researchers have also discovered that a topically applied cream containing capsicum could help control some types of chronic skin pains. Now available in the form of a prescription drug, capsicum ointment is applied to the skin to aid in controlling the pain associated with herpes zoster, also known as shingles, as well as neuralgia and postoperative amputation trauma. The active ingredient in Capsicum is a compound called capsaicin that functions to deplete 'substance P', which is involved in the transmission of pain from the skin to the spinal cord. By blocking substance P, capsaicin acts as a dramatic and long-lasting anesthetic bringing relief to almost 75 percent of patients tested with the cream. It can take as long as three days from first application to begin to deplete substance P from the peripheral nerves. Taken internally to aid digestion, red peppers should be consumed slowly to avoid distress. Be careful to avoid getting Capsicum products in the eyes, as this can be extremely painful.

Reduced Cancer Death Rate

In the countries where diets are traditionally high in capsaicin, the cancer death rates for men and women are significantly lower than they are in countries with less chili pepper consumption (World Health Organization statistics). When capsaicin was administered to rats receiving carcinogenic agents, the incidence of certain tumors was decreased over controls. Capsaicin has been found to preferentially inhibit the growth of cancer cells in laboratory studies.

What is the best dvd to buy to tone up abs?

For anyone who has taken Hydroxycut Hardcore. What type of diet should one use while taking this? Square meals

types of meals how many meals and snacks...or can i perform my normal eating habits continue my workouts and watch the results.

Answers: As with any diet & exercise plan a healthy diet is recommended.
I don't mean carrots and rabbit foods, but cut down your food intake by about 500 calories. This will help you get your weight loss going and you won't feel starved.
If you are already eating healthy and just need to drop a few more pounds, break up your meals into 6 small meals from 250 - 350 calories per meal, it'll get you close to a recommended daily allowance and it'll probably be slightly lower than what you are already taking in.
Keep up your exercise routine, or start one (if your okay'd by your doc to do so)
A cheeper alternative to Hoydroxycut HC is HydroxyRip Extreme, it's the same formula but a lot less expensive, you can find it at www.vitacost.com.
Good Luck, hope it helps

Are V8 drinks, really good for you?

Are V8 drinks, really good for you? Do they really contain the vitiams I need? Is there a high amount of anthing in that drink that can hurt me? Cause I drink them a lot.

Answers: Hi.

I love V8. I drink one 6 oz. can each day. My doctor said that it does have a lot of vitamins in it.

Of course, it would be better to eat all those separate veggies; but if you don't have the time, it's a good substitute.

The only thing that could be a problem is the high sodium level it has. If you have high blood pressure, then it could cause you some problems. I have low blood pressure, so it's not a problem at all.

So, as long as you don't have high blood pressure, enjoy!

No. V8 drinks are rubbish.

The problem is that they heat treat the drink before bottling it. This destroys anything that may have been beneficial. That and in the time it takes from juicing the vegetable to get to you all of the natural enzymes are well gone.

I would stick to drinking fresh juices and stay clear of the bottled kind.

That being said, if it were a choice between V8 and Coke...

Kev

Not really...they are high in sodium, and they are not a substitute for real veggies.
You're MUCH better off to take a multivitamin!

There are nutritional values in canned vegetables, juices, fruits. However, any cooking process removes part of the nutrients and especially when cooked in water. We might even be better off drinking the liquid we cooked the food in. Canning/heating of foods has been occurring for many, many years as this was generally the only way to preserve foods throughout the winter months. Naturally, fresh is always better but this is not always possible/convenient. There is nothing in the V8 drinks that will hurt you unless you are on a sodium restricted diet or have allergies to ingredients. Christmas is coming up........ask for a juicer and make your own for optimal nutrition.
