| Myth #10 - You need to drink six to eight glasses of water a day. In February 2004, after reviewing more than 400 studies, the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine concluded that men need about 15 cups of fluid a day and women about 11. But that includes fluids from all beverages, including the alcoholic and caffeinated kinds, and the water in food. The vast majority of Americans already get that much liquid in their everyday diets.
Water loss increases after exercise, but most people naturally feel thirsty and drink more fluids without being prompted. However, people over the age of 65 or children should pay special attention to their fluid intake, since the sense of thirst isn’t as sharp. Strong smelling, dark yellow urine indicates that you need to drink more. Finally, while any beverage counts toward your daily intake, plain tap water does offer several advantages: It’s cheap, thirst quenching, and calorie-free.
Myth #9 - Lifting heavy weights add bulk.
Adults may or may not become “bulky” when lifting heavy weights. Women are told to lift weights with high repetitions to avoid “bulk”. These both are determined by our genetics, not our lifting routine. Women are less likely than men to add tremendous bulk when lifting weights. High levels of testosterone are necessary for muscles to add large amounts of bulk. The genetics of each individual determine who can add bulk and who cannot.
This is perhaps the most common myth women fall for and it couldn’t be farther from the truth. In fact, weight training is often the easiest and quickest way for women to look leaner, more sculpted and toned. You’d have to be taking steroids to achieve the bulked-up look most body builders have, so don’t be afraid of weights. Incorporate strength training twice a week into your exercise program because it will help protect you from injury, tone your muscles, help prevent osteoporosis and burn excess body fat, even when you are resting.
Myth #8 - You burn more fat when you exercise at a low intensity for a long amount of time.
The most efficient way to burn fat is to combine intense training in short spurts with a nutritious diet. For example, 30 minutes of cycling in intervals, where you continuously vary your speed, intensity and pace, burns more calories than a slow one-hour walk. And it keeps burning them when you stop because your metabolism stays elevated for a few hours after you exercise.
Myth #7 - You can lose weight by dieting.
More than 90% of all people who lose weight by dieting gain it back. Change your eating habits and choose to eat more fruits and vegetables and less fat. Dieting is temporary deprivation. Eating healthy means developing a new mindset. The real trick to losing weight is a lifelong pattern of moderate exercise, healthy diet, and 7-8 hours sleep/night.
Myth #6 - The best time to exercise is early in the morning.
Not true. There is no one best time to exercise. The best time is the time that appeals to you and fits into your schedule. Some folks love to jump-start their day with a morning workout, while others swear that exercising after the workday is over is a great way to energize for the evening and eliminate stress.
Myth #5 - Pasta and bread are fattening.
Anything is fattening! Lettuce can be stored as fat! Any food or drink which contains calories can be stored as body fat if it causes your blood sugar level to exceed what the body needs at that time. Bread and pasta area actually great sources of complex carbohydrates! The key is how much you eat and when you eat it.
Myth #4 - if you stop an exercise program your muscle will turn to fat.
Fat cannot turn into muscle any more than a rock can turn into water. They are two different components. When you stop working out, you lose muscle tone and gain fat, but one doesn’t turn into the other.
Myth #3 - You’ll burn more calories jogging a mile than walking a mile.
Caloric expenditure is 62 calories per 100 pounds body weight per mile traveled (walked or jogged). For example, if you weigh 150 pounds, you expend 93 calories per mile walked or jogged (62 x 1.5). Of course, if you’re jogging, you’ll cover the distance in less time than if you’re walking. Thus, you’ll burn more calories in a given period of time if you’re jogging. Myth #2 - Stretching before exercise boosts performance and prevents injury, and getting a massage afterward speeds recovery.
Two large reviews, published in 2004 and 2005, failed to support the notion that stretching your muscles before exercise prevents injury or post-exercise muscle soreness. Similarly, at least five clinical trials now show that getting a massage after exercise doesn’t help restore muscle strength and does little to soothe aching muscles.
The component that is most often left out of a fitness program is stretching. If you are like most people, you probably think that right after you are finished your last set, you should head for the showers. However, you should really finish off with some stretching, as it will increase the range of motion in your muscles and joints, which will thus allow you to perform your weightlifting exercises over a greater range of motion, as well as target more muscle fibers throughout the lift.
Finally, when you finish off your workout with some stretching, you reduce the severity of DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness), which you will most likely greatly appreciate the next morning. And…… Fitness Myth #1 - You can lose fat from a specific part of your body by doing an exercise for that part of your body. For example, abdominal crunches will remove fat from your abdominal area.
You can’t spot reduce! You cannot control where fat is removed from your body. The one thing everyone wants is a flat stomach. No matter how many sit-ups you do it won’t be flat if you have a layer of fat covering your muscles. Your time would be much better spent doing some quality cardio sessions and making sure you’re eating well, which would help you lose body fat than doing more sit-ups.
Many exercise devices are marketed to spot reduce or spot tone a specific body part. The idea is that by using their device you will be able to tone the inner thighs, for example. This is simply not true. Muscles utilize blood glucose, cellular energy stores, and blood fat for energy. Fat is not pulled from the area it is stored in to serve as energy in its own “neighborhood”. Once blood glucose levels are low, a hormonal reaction is triggered to metabolize stored fat for conversion to glucose for energy. Fat deposits are tapped in multiple places around the body, not adjacent to the body part requiring the need for energy.
A properly structured strength and conditioning program will result in a leaner body appearance (when combined with proper eating habits.) This is in part due to fat loss and muscle hypertrophy (size increase). The amount of toning is, unfortunately, bases on one’s genetic predisposition for muscle growth and fat storage. We cannot, unfortunately, change how our body is programmed to add muscle and store fat. This is just something i found intresting while surfin the net...all the research i've done about fitness and magizines i read say pertty much the same thing. laterz | | |
| this is the reason why you shouldent workout by yourself...and with a stupid spotter. | | |
| Yea, thats me, "muscle head". well thats what Kou calls me. I just love working out, lifting weights untill i drop the weights on me, run till my toes get numb, im giving God all glory, praise, and me myself being happy to say that when i first started it took me 20min to do one mile. Now i can do it in 9min. Also when i first started working out i was 245lb, i just recently weigh myself and now im 213. i lost 32lb of body fat and darn happy about it. Not only i can run further, breath easer, lift heaver, i now have a low blood presure. In the end, it all matters to your blood pressure. I dont want to end up like my Daddy and my close reletives that are young in their 40-50's having strokes and hart attacks. Seeing my Dad with tubes in his mouth ant a good sight to see. With the power of God, in Jesus name all things are possible. Philippians 4:13 " I can do all things through Him who strengthen me." Now ant that the truth, have you ever gotten so tiard that you couldent breath anymore? well i have, i was to the point that i asked for God to give me strength so i can finish out my couple laps. all of a sudden, Bam i dont even think how tiard i am and finish my couple laps strong. Thats how awsome our God is. So in all i give God all glory. I couldent get to the point where i am now, not with the help of our awsome God. Goals for 2008 Body fat composition of 15% or lower sprint 40yrd in 5sec 1 1/2 mile @ 12min or lower Bench Press @ 315lb 10reps of 3set 3 pull ups...LOL...i have a record of -1, i couldent hold up myself so i sliped off the bars Squats @ 405lb 10reps of 3 set last but not least, the most important part of your body is the brain. it should be incorporated into the workout. my last goals for 2008 is to graduate with only 27 credits left. "Muscle Head", if thats what you want to call me... go right ahead. Edit.. OOops its "Meat Head" not "Muscle Head" thanks for the correction Kou | | |
| Hey again. you know the past couple week i have been pooping green and i wonder what was wrong with me. I did a search on google and a cite came up and it gave me some wonderful information. and i would like to share it with you. these are just a few....please visit www.smellypoop.com to read more.What is the cause of green poop? I have consulted with a doctor, a physiologist and a microbiologist on this question, and the following summarizes their answers:
Healthy people can have green poop if they eat a diet rich in leafy green vegetables, or if they consume large quantities of food coloring (in ice cream, cake frosting etc.).
Green poop can also be caused by excess iron in the diet, from dietary supplements, for example. If the body does not absorb all the iron consumed, the iron may stain the poop green, the color of iron (II) salts. Ordinarily, the green color may be masked by the normal brown poop color, but if digestion is thrown off by illness so that bilirubin is less concentrated in the intestine, the green color may become apparent. This can happen when a person is afflicted with diarrhea.
Green poop in sick babies may come from iron in baby formula not being properly absorbed, or by green pigments in bile salts (again, green from iron). Yes, this answerd my question why i was pooping green...its probably because of my cretine drink that i have been drinking. man i was worried that there was something wrong with me...woo. Can you get sick from eating poop?Yes, you can definitely get sick from eating poop, even in minute quantities! Although urine emerges sterile from the body (unless the person has an infection), poop emerges loaded with bacteria and sometimes other life forms. Many diseases, including food poisoning, cholera and typhus, are spread by fecal contamination. Many parasites, such as the notorious tapeworm, can be spread through deliberate or accidental ingestion of poop.
There are some parasites, such as pinworms, who depend on people eating their own poop to keep the population up. Pinworms are small nematodes that live in the colon. The females emerge from the anus at night to lay their eggs. Their activity makes the anal area itch. The person scratches the itch (often doing so in his sleep), procuring a small amount of fecal matter and eggs under his fingernails, and then puts his fingers in his mouth. Once the eggs are consumed, the person is infected with a new generation of pinworms.
I have read that almost everyone has pinworms. Luckily, pinworms don't do much harm. You only notice them if you have a lot of pinworms! If you want to find out if you do indeed have them, get someone to gently touch around your anal area with Scotch tape while you are sleeping. The worms will stick to the tape and you'll be able to see them. How come when you eat corn, no matter how much you chew it, you poop it out in whole kernals? Corn poop is one of the greatest mysteries in life. I grew up pondering the same question. This is what I think is happening:
When we chew corn, the outer coating slips off the inner kernal. This outer yellow coating is almost entirely cellulose, and is indigestible. It passes through the gut untouched, and emerges looking like a whole kernal, although it is mostly just the outer skin. The inside of the kernal is starchy and digestible, and that is the part that we succeed in chewing up. What Happens When I'm At WORK and I have to Poop?We've all been there but don't like to admit it. We've all kicked back in our cubicles and suddenly felt something a brew down below. As much as we try to convince ourselves, the WORK POOP is inevitable. For those of you who hate pooping at work as much as I do, I give you the......... Survival Guide for Taking a Dump at Work. Memorize these definitions and pooping at work will become a pure pleasure. ESCAPEE: A fart that slips out while taking a leak at the urinal or forcing poop in a stall. This is usually accompanied by a sudden wave of panic/embarrassment. This is similar to the hot flash you receive when passing an unseen police car & speeding. If you release an escapee, do not acknowledge it. Pretend it did not happen. If you are standing next to the farter at the urinal, pretend that you did not hear it. No one likes an escapee, it is uncomfortable for all involved. Making a joke or laughing makes both parties feel uneasy. JAILBREAK (Used in conjunction with escapee): When forcing a poop, several farts slip out at a machine gun's pace. This is usually a side effect of diarrhea or a hangover. If this should happen do not panic, remain in the stall until everyone has left the bathroom so to spare everyone the awkwardness of what just occurred. COURTESY FLUSH: The act of flushing the toilet the instant the nose cone of the poop log hits the water and the poop is whisked away to an undisclosed location. This reduces the amount of air time the poop has to stink up the bathroom. This can help you avoid being caught doing the WALK OF SHAME. WALK OF SHAME: Walking from the stall, to the sink, to the door after you have just stunk-up the shitter. This can be a very uncomfortable moment if someone walks in and busts you. As with all farts, it is best to pretend that the smell does not exist. Can be avoided with the use of a COURTESY FLUSH. OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPER: A colleague who poops at work and is damn proud of it. You will often see an Out of the Closet Pooper enter the bathroom with a newspaper or magazine under their arm. Always look around the office for the Out OF THE CLOSET POOPER before entering the bathroom. THE POOPING FRIENDS NETWORK (PFN): This is a group of coworkers who band together to ensure emergency pooping goes off without incident. This group can help you to monitor the whereabouts of OUT OF THE CLOSET POOPERS and identify SAFE HAVENS. SAFE HAVEN: A seldom used bathroom somewhere in the building where you can least expect visitors. Try floors that are predominantly of the opposite sex. This will reduce the odds of a pooper of your sex entering the bathroom. TURD BURGLAR: A pooper who does not realize that you're in the stall and tries to force the door open. This is one of the most shocking and vulnerable moments that occur when taking a dump at work. If this occurs, remain in the stall until the TURD BURGLAR leaves. This way you will avoid all uncomfortable eye contact. TURD BURGLARS have been know to cause premature pinchage, which inevitably causes you to pinch one off in the middle. CAMO-COUGH: A phony cough which alerts all new entrants into the bathroom that you are in a stall. This can be used to cover-up a WATERMELON or to alert potential TURD BURGLARS. Very effective when used in conjunction with an ASTAIRE. ASTAIRE: This is a subtle toe-tap that is used to alert all potential TURD BURGLARS that you are occupying a stall. This will remove all doubt that the stall is occupied. If you hear an ASTAIRE, leave the bathroom immediately so the pooper can poop in peace. WATERMELON: A turd that creates a loud splash when hitting the toilet water. This is also an embarrassing incident. If you feel a WATERMELON coming on, create a diversion. See CAMO-COUGH. HAVANA OMELET: A load of diarrhea that creates a series of loud splashes in the toilet water. Often accompanied by an escapee. Try using a CAMO-COUGH with an ASTAIRE. UNCLE TED: A bathroom user who seems to linger around forever. Could spend extended lengths of time in front of the mirror or sitting on the pot. An UNCLE TED makes it difficult to relax while on the crapper, as you should always wait to drop your load when the bathroom is empty. This benefits you as well as the other bathroom attendees. FLY BY: The act of scouting out a bathroom before pooping. Walk in, check for other poopers. If there are others in the bathroom, leave and come back again. Be careful not to become a FREQUENT FLYER. People may become suspicious if they catch you constantly going into the bathroom. | | |
