I am not sure how to get the best workout from running. I want to lean down.

How long am I suppose to run: distance, time? What speed?
How many times per week.

Not really important but, this would help as well:

Crunches and push-ups work many of your major muscle groups without the need for extra equipment. For cardio, you can turn up the music and dance like crazy, or jog in place, or invest a few bucks in a DVD (I love the Bellydancing for Beginners DVD, since it’s a great workout that also feels like I’m learning something). You can also throw yourself into your everyday chores and errands and get some workout potential out of those; I wrote a blog entry (below) about sneaky ways to get some exercise out of everyday routines, so that might help you, too. Good luck!

anyone know good ab exercises?

Question by ~hi§ hot wife~: anyone know good ab exercises?

Answer by Mase
Everyone make the mistake that if you have belly fat to work out the belly to get rid of it….. nope, you got to work out the full body.
It doesn’t really matter what you eat (besides the obvious junk food) and when you eat it, as long as it has the nutrients your body needs and you give it to your body when it needs it. You cant forget protein, which is not only a main building block for your body but for your mind as well. I will explain.
One of the worst things you can do to your body is stop eating. Your body needs fuel just like your car needs fuel. And just like your car, the better the fuel and oil is, the better the cars performance, the better the food and liquid is that you put in your body with too make you “run” better.
If you are trying to lose fat. Try to raise your metabolism by eating smaller meals, more nutritious meals, and about five or six meals throughout the day.
Also, remember that if you are working out you are also building muscle, and muscle weighs more than fat does. So as you lose the fat and gain the muscle your weight might not adjust for a while until your muscle building reaches a plateau and your body begins to really tare away fat.
If you do not want to eat five or six small meals a day. Eat three meals a day, smaller portions, then between breakfast and lunch have a healthy snack or meal replacement shake, and another between lunch and dinner.
The idea is to teach your body to get rid of all extra fuel it doesn’t need, which are fats, carbs, and simple sugars for the most part. And once your body begins to understand that you are giving it the fuel it needs when it needs it, then your body will no longer store fat cells as a fuel reserve.
It is also a good idea to use a body cleanser, or detoxify before beginning any change in diet. Especially if you are going to begin eating healthier. The process might cause head aches or muscle cramps depending on what your body has become used to. Also diarrhea is a common side effect of most cleansing programs, but don’t worry this is a sign that your body is getting rid of the toxic substances. The cleans will help your body to easily extract the nutrients it needs from the food you intake and bypass the rest as waste.
To expedite the process it always helps to concentrate on full body workouts to keep energy storage empty. Also, drink water, water is used to clean your body inside and out. Stay away from caffeine and soda.
This will take time. But once you are able to achieve routine with your eating habits it is one of the easiest ways to keep the fat off.
So with this, your diet can be very flexible as well. You can have sweets and things but for best results I would stay away from all simple sugars, like candy.
Good luck and God bless.

The plank is one of the most effective ab exercises. If you search for it, you’ll get a pretty good idea of what it is. Crunches help with the definition – make sure you remember to crunch your sides. I reccommend getting a stability ball – sitting on a stability ball will tighten your core muscles.
Cardio is the next thing for abs – make sure you do atleast 30 minutes of cardio everyday. Try interval training, i.e., you start with a brisk walk for 2 minutes, take it up to a slow jog for 2 minutes, run for a minute, take it down to a walk and repeat.
Hope this helps

Answer by John N
Hi. Great question.

To burn fat, you want to run at least 30 minutes per day, 3 times per week….if you can’t at first, don’t worry…do what you can and build up.

You want to run at a pace that allows you to be winded (breathing heavily) but still able to hold a conversation. If you can’t hold a conversation….you’re going to fast and are in an anaerobic state which makes you store fat.

The above answers the speed…for some it may be an 8 minute, a 10 minute or a 7 minute mile…depends on you.

As for food, fruits are always good as they are light and easy to digest…plus they are water-rich which is good for hydration. Don’t eat anything right before you run….eat and wait a half hour or more.

Let me know if you have any questions….I can talk running all day.

John

Can anyone help me setup a workout routine that includes both cardio and strength training?

Question by Emerson: Can anyone help me setup a workout routine that includes both cardio and strength training?
I belong to a gym and have just started running 1 mile. My goal is to get up to 5 miles. Overall, I want to lose 20 lbs without gaining too much muscle. Any suggestions on a workout would be great. Thank you!

Best answer:

Answer by Kyle W
Do lot of cardio, make sure you stretch before and after, at least 20 mins. of cardio a day… 6 out of 7 days. You need your rest, you get the gains from exercising when the body recovers from a workout. So, if you are running a mile under 20 minutes just do a light jog afterwards until you get your 20 minutes.

As for lifting that depends on you. If you can devote 5-6 days to lift, then you can lift for around an hour working on a few muscle groups each day. If have 2-3 days, then you need to work out 2-3 hours working upper and lower body. If you need help get a trainer to do a consultation and they are many sites that can help you.

If you don’t want much mass, then do low intensity lifting… ie higher reps. in 1-2 sets.

Question by beautyinsimplicity: Anyone have any good ab workouts?
I am in college and I work out regularly (every other day) at a gym. I do a bunch of ab exercises (along with cardio and other weight training, i’m not new at this), but I’m looking for something new that can help me get over the plateau I’m at right now. Any suggestions or websites? Thanks.
I only weigh 110 pounds. I’m not looking to lose weight, just gain muscle.

Answer by Dario A
The key for losing weight is easy – eat less food and workout more often – the difficulties appear when we in reality try to put that into practice! There are plenty of temptations out there aren’t there?! I uncovered some good help by visiting the web portal in the box below, they have plenty of guidance, I shed 7 pounds by following their helpful advice.
