Can I Just Lose Fat from My Legs, Hips, or Just My Stomach?

Friday, February 29th, 2008

By Eduardo G. Perez The most common and everlasting question I receive as a personal fitness trainer continues to be based on the myth of spot reduction. The questions tend to be, “Eduardo, show me an exercise to lose my love handles,” Eduardo, I just want to reduce the size of my thighs, Eduardo, I know you said that its not scientifically possible, but can you just give me a couple of exercises to tone my arms? Even though media has done a great job of debunking this myth it still persists. This is such a powerful notion that marketers have taken full advantage of it and invest a minimum of thirty-thousand dollars just to produce an infomercial on stomach and thigh saunas, abdominal machines, and leg toners. Its a pretty large sum that provides four to ten times the return on their initial investment. I must have a sense of moral obligation when I am not joining that extreme money making bandwagon. As a matter of fact, in this brief article on the myth of losing fat from a specific area, I plan on joining the few in the fitness industry that want to inform the consumers on the truth. As Personal Trainer, I consistently answer this question with a NO. The misconception of burning fat from a specific area of the body has been proven by research that it is false. Of course, if I am going to tell you that science has proved it false, I made sure to do my homework and dig up three studies that illustrate how flawed spot reduction is as a runner up to an urban myth. The first study I want to illustrate will answer the questions of I just want to lose fat from my stomach, can I just do crunches? In 1984, Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport reported that thirteen males did a total of 5000 sit-ups in 27 days. Biopsies of the subjects fat cells were used to measure the change in fat cell diameter. The results showed that the subjects lost fat equally from the stomach, glutes, and upper back even though they only worked their abs. Eduardo, just give me leg exercises since all I want to do is lose fat from my legs and hips? In a six-month long study of women who mainly did leg exercises for approximately nine hours per week lost an average of 5.7 pounds of fat. The Journal of Applied Physiology, the periodical that published this study, reported that the distribution of fat loss was 2.9 pounds from the trunk, 2.8 pounds from the arms, and 0 from their thighs. Their weekly nine hours of leg work resulted in zero fat loss from their thighs! Ok, so you say This is what I begin to hear after I try to explain spot reduction is a myth. It continues as, that spot reduction doesnt work, but can you just give me some arm exercises to reduce the fat from my arms? This last illustration is from a study published in the Annals of Internal Medicine in 1971, where world-class tennis players were tested to see if spot reduction could help in reducing the fat from the arms. The idea behind this study was that if spot reduction worked, the players would have one arm that’s leaner than the other. Obviously, tennis players use their dominant arms forcefully everyday while doing relatively little with their non-dominant arms. Though the researchers did find the dominant arm to be bigger due to more muscle tone, there was no difference at all between arms in fat thickness. This study showed that working a certain muscle does not necessarily affect the fat deposits that may be lying above that muscle. What are your weight loss options? Your options are healthy eating and moderate to intense exercise. Going back to science, research has proven that exercise and healthy eating habits are the most important part of a weight loss and weight management program. Exercise helps to lose or control weight by using any extra calories that would have otherwise been stored a fat. For example, if you were to eat more calories than you actually use through physical activity, the extra calories would be stored as fat and you would gain weight. On the other hand, if you were to eat fewer calories than you actually use, your body would use stored calories resulting in weight loss. Of course, if your calories in are equal to the calories you use, your weight stays the same. How many calories do I need to burn in order to lose one pound of fat? In order to lose approximately one pound of fat you would have to expend about 3,500 calories in a week. One way to do this is to eat fewer calories, and burn more through exercise. If you burn about 300 calories a day and eat 200 less calories per day, you will have a 500 calorie deficit. In one week that would be 3,500 calories. My recommendation is that you keep a food journal, like the one found in the www.tartesos-fitness.com 6 Week Exercise Journal in order to start recognizing your calorie intake. How do I set up my exercise routine to lose fat? In order to lose fat, you would have to spend a minimum of one-hundred and fifty minutes exercising per week. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends at least thirty minutes of moderate to high intensity exercise at least five times per week. An example of a fitness program could be: Every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday thirty minute power walk. Every Tuesday and Thursday you do a thirty minute full-body weight training program followed by a fifteen to twenty minute moderate to high intensity aerobic exercise such as power walking.

Planning The Perfect Wedding Day, Don’t Forget You Know Who!

Friday, February 29th, 2008

By Carmel Baird Planning your wedding can be the busiest time of your life, so much to do and organize. Does your partner feel neglected? Wedding planning can be very time consuming. Some males just don’t want to know all the details, others want to be in on everything. Either way, you can find the going not so smooth. A little bit of time out together can work wonders, for you too, a break from being the wedding planner can recharge your batteries. Why not just your and your groom get away from it all? Like A romantic dinner for two, budget might be tight, but it’s amazing what a few tea lights, perfumed candles, even comfy cushions around the coffee table, soft music in the background, good wine, you in something stunning and the food could be scramble eggs on toast, he wouldn’t notice A walk along the beach in the late afternoon, just as the sun is setting Send him an e-card, it will brighten his day. Go dancing A drive in the country, have lunch at a country pub, away from everything. I’m sure you can think of many more things you can do, the important thing is that it is just the two of you and no wedding talk. There will be many other times during the organizing of your wedding where you can get his advice or ask his opinion. So keep these special times for just you and your love. One of these times will be when you decide on your wedding vows. What will you say to each other, what does this wonderful person, the one you are going to spend the rest of your life with mean to you, how do you put it into words. There are books that can help you, give you some starters. You may have a special song that you can take some of the lines from, a special poem. These will be very special words, so need careful choosing. This may best be done away from all the hustle and bustle of the wedding arrangements. Why not get away to a romantic spot, somewhere overlooking the beach or a country hideaway. Whatever you do, make sure your groom to be is not neglected or feeling neglected during all the preparations. They can be very sensitive you know, even if they wont admit it. Enjoy your special day, and may your future together be wonderful.

Why do Muslims and Islam Honor Jesus and Mary?

Wednesday, February 27th, 2008

By Waseem R Many do not know that Muslims honor Jesus and Mary as part of their religious beliefs. The following highlights some of the facts regarding Muslims beliefs about Jesus and Mary. * Muslims believe in Jesus as a prophet. They believe that God (Allah) sent many prophets to mankind and Jesus was one of them * As the Muslim religions foundation is to believe in one God and not to associate anyone with God and His powers and attributes, Jesus was only a human being that was raised by God and will return him to this earth in this life. Jesus will then die as a regular human being. * Muslims believe that Bible was revealed on Prophet Jesus. However, with time, as that book was changed, God (Allah) revealed His last book, the Quran on the last prophet, Prophet Muhammad. * Quran was revealed over a period of 23 years * Muslims believe in Mary as the Virgin mother of Prophet Jesus * There is an entire chapter in the Quran that explains in detail the birth of Jesus, his family, etc. The chapter is called Chapter of Mary * Muslims believe that Jesus although was put on the cross was never crucified. Instead, he was raised to the heavens by God (Allah) and another person instead was crucified in his place. These teachings and the fully story are narrated in the Quran. * Muslims also believe that Jesus will come back to earth, unit the Christians and the Muslims and will kill the anti-Christ. * The Quran teaches Muslims that Jesus though was a normal human being but had special powers from God (Allah) including raising the dead and curing diseases.

The Ideal Proposal: Buy and Send Flowers Online

Tuesday, February 26th, 2008

By Josh Grossman Ever notice how many engagement proposals involve giving flowers? No doubt flowers timeless appeal make them an easy choice. When you send flowers, its sure to be the perfect complement whenever and however you plan to pop the question. Nowadays its even easier to have fresh flowers present, since you can buy and send flowers online. Women love flowers and men have been giving women flowers when they propose since the beginning of time. Even outlandish proposals seem to always come back to flowers. A friend of mine cooked a romantic dinner for his girlfriend and served it on the terrace of his apartment. On the hillside across from his apartment, his friends got together and helped him make a display which read “Karen, will you marry me?” It was in huge letters all made of lights, like an enormous Lite Brite. He called us on his cell phone to let us know he would be ready in three minutes for the light show. When he came back to the dinner table he said “Honey, check this out.” As she looked over, we hit the power for the lights. When she looked back over at him astonished and crying, he was on one knee, roses in one hand and a ring in the other. No doubt the experience was enhanced by the fresh flowers. Admittedly, not every proposal story can be as creative or romantic, but no matter how you plan to pop the question, flowers can be an easy way to enhance the moment. A new flower gift from online florist Beyond Blossoms (http://www.beyondblossoms.com) even lets you send fresh flowers specifically for your proposal. With the Perfect Proposal package, the company lets you easily send flowers to yourself so you can have them ready for the big moment. The package consists of a bouquet of fresh flowers (roses, asters, and berries) along with a mini-pressed flower kit so your significant other can cherish the flowers forever. No matter how the proposal comes about, flowers convey emotions that words cant express. They help to complete the moment. And, in a subtle way, flowers help the girl move that much closer to Yes! Josh Grossman is co-owner of http://www.beyondblossoms.com Send flowers in the US that are farm fresh. When you buy flowers from Beyond Blossoms get low prices on fresh flowers such as roses, lilies, carnations, sunflowers, and more.

Using Your Credit Card Wisely

Monday, February 25th, 2008

By Peter Kenny Although credit cards can be an invaluable financial asset, unless you use them wisely you will find yourself drowning in debt. However, if you use your credit card wisely then you can save yourself money and be able to purchase the items that you could not afford in one lump sum on your current wages. Here are some tips about how to use your credit card wisely. Building a credit history One of the best ways to use your credit card wisely is to use your card to build up your credit history. People who borrow and pay back the money responsibly have a much better credit history than those who never borrow at all. If you spend money on your credit card and then pay it back quickly, you will be seen as a good borrower and you will get better deals on other financial products like loans and mortgages. Paying off your balance Another sensible way to use your credit card is to only charge to your card what you can afford to pay back each month. Although this is not always possible because of large purchases or unexpected expenditures, you should generally try to budget to pay all or most of your balance back each month. If you can pay back your balance in full each month then you wont be subject to the high interest rates of your card. However, even if you cant pay back the whole amount, make sure you pay back more than the minimum payment. Paying only the minimum will leave you wasting money on interest and your balance will a lot longer to pay off. Keeping cards at home If you are having trouble with your credit card spending, then a good way to avoid the temptation is to leave your credit cards at home unless you really will need them. If you are simply going out on a small shopping trip, leave your cards at home so that you wont be tempted to buy anything extra. Only take your credit cards out when you really need them, or in case of emergency. Balance transfers If you find that your credit card interest payments are very high, then a good way to reduce this is to switch your balance to a card that has 0% interest on balance transfers for a certain period of time. This will mean that you can pay off the balance without having to worry about interest for the next few months. Shopping online Shopping online has become increasingly popular, mainly because of the convenience it offers and the low prices available. When shopping online it is important to always use a credit card to purchase items. This is because credit cards are much safer than other forms of payment, and offer purchase protection. This means that if something should go wrong with the sale, you have the ability to claim the money back from the credit card company. If you use your credit card wisely, then you will avoid getting heavily into debt and will have the freedom that using a credit card can afford you.

Chi, the Boundless Life-Energy You Can Tap

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

By Byron Branfield The word has its roots in the ancient Chinese culture and philosophy. Chi refers to the natural energy that pervades the entire universe. It is the life force of all living beings as well. It has metaphysical connotations. It is at once supernatural and paranormal. There are quite a few terms or expressions that represent chi in various countries or regions. In India, for instance, it is prana (breath) and therapeutic touch and in Japan it is ki, the life force energy. Reiki, a Japanese healing technique, uses the spiritually guided life force energy for curing illnesses. Some of the earliest recorded philosophies in China mention the metaphysical energy that flows through and sustains all beings under the sun. An Austrian immigrant to the United States, Dr. Wilhelm Reich, propounded the theory that what he termed as orgone energy is the cause of everything in the entire universe. According to him, orgone energy is the same as bio-energy or life energy that fills all living beings. While some ancient Chinese philosophies describe chi to be a separate force unconnected with matter, some others debate whether chi arises from matter or it is the other way round. There is yet another philosophy supported by Buddhists and Taoists that matter after all is an illusion. Without using the word chi, several philosophers in India go a little further in stating that a primordial force or energy creates, sustains and destroys all matter, in regular cycles. All matter is an illusion of the reality that is the primordial energy. One of the principal concepts pertaining to chi (or qi) is that of harmony, be it in the state of the universe or in the life of an individual. Earthquakes, tornadoes, typhoons, tsunamis, cyclones or the other natural calamities that occur on land or at sea from time to time result from the disturbance in the chi - harmony. The same chi also engineers cosmic troubles in the astrosphere. Your mental or physical health is also in direct relation to this harmony. When there is imbalance or disharmony, your health suffers. You have to draw on the energy resource of chi to restore the lost equilibrium in order to get back the lost health. Your mind or body will then return to its normal state of good health. Traditional Chinese medicine uses various therapeutic techniques like acupuncture, herbal medicines, special diets, martial arts and so on, for correcting the imbalances in the circulation or flow of chi through its channels. Thereby, it restores the health of the patients. Reiki practitioners say that, when the life force energy is low, illness occurs and their healing techniques raise the energy level for the illness to disappear. They use the therapeutic touch to heal their patients. According to Feng Shui, the flow chi in the spaces that you and your belongings occupy influences your health, wealth, energy levels and many other things of your life, and even your luck. This traditional Chinese art gives clear instructions regarding where and how your things should be placed in your house, what color suits or brings luck to you etc, as their proper arrangement will regulate the flow of chi to your benefit. Who knows, you may turn out to be a strong advocate of chi and its declared benefits, once you try Feng Shui or Reiki or some traditional Chinese therapeutic technique like acupuncture. Belief is the key. Health, life & Love is a motivational website offering articles on health, life and love. We are dedicated to the happenings of life and how to better anyone’s day to day living.

Fly Fishing Schools

Thursday, February 21st, 2008

By Ken Marlborough They say that some things are best learned through experience. They say that no matter how much you read about a certain topic or how often you watch other people do it, you will never really learn the right way unless you get to try yourself. Can this be applied to learning how to fly fish? Well, according to fly fishing schools, you can never really learn too much about any subject. They say that going to school and acquiring the guidance of skilled instructors is accepted as the quickest and most efficient way to learn how to fly fish. For most people, learning consists of different stages. You can never learn everything in just one day. This is perhaps why fly fishing schools are becoming popular nowadays. It is not just because fly fishing is quite difficult to learn, but because you need to be prepared and trained if you want to become an expert fly fisher. There are many fly fishing lessons that you can learn in a fly fishing school. They include (a) learning to cast well, as this is the most important part of catching fish; (b) spey casting, where you can learn the basics of the roll, switch, single spey, and double spey casts using single- or double-handed rods; (c) advanced spey casting; (d) under-hand spey casting that generates very tight loops that travel great distances in very little effort; and even (e) fly fishing PhD classes. Fly fishing schools have very strict policies. You have to stick to an exact schedule and curriculum. Disruptions during the lesson should be kept to a minimum. You also have to be organized and ready to perform the day’s tasks. The payments depend on the number of classes that you want to take. Usually, these schools do not allow refunds after 60 days prior to the class date unless there is another student who will sign up to take your place. Class schedules depend on the availability of the instructors. Fly Fishing Trips provides detailed information on Fly Fishing Flies, Fly Fishing Gear, Fly Fishing Knots, Fly Fishing Reels and more. Fly Fishing Trips is affiliated with Fly Fishing Vacations.

Avoid Heat Damage To Hair When Using Straightening Irons: Steps To Getting Great Results

Saturday, February 16th, 2008

By David J Hallett There are literally hundreds of different styling irons on the market today. Buying the cheapest really is false economy. Some irons have poor thermal control across the plates, so heat damage can become inevitable. In cheaper versions, the plates can also shift with use, and be ineffective at holding the hair in place. Others can ‘grab’ and actually pull the hair out. Choosing the best can be a minefield, so its always a safe bet to pick irons that have been used in professional salons and ones that come recommended by stylists. After all, there is usually a good reason a professional uses a particular brand of product. The results after every cut, style or treatment are self-evident. A bad job means the salon is unlikely to win repeat business, not to mention their reputation being at stake. Straightening irons aren’t just for straightening hair either. With the right technique, the hair can also be curled in a number of different ways. It’s important to remember, that using straightening irons daily is not good practice if you want to avoid heat damage to your hair. Professional manufacturers will worked in partnership with top salons. They will have a well developed range of serums and other products specifically for use with their straightening irons. Using these products will act as a barrier between the heat given off by the irons and your hair. Remember, that when straightening your hair; don’t be tempted to grab handfuls. The best results are obtained by keeping the sections small. Don’t always rely on the irons for straightening the hair. Make sure you blow dry with a quality bristle brush first to avoid ironing in tangles. Many professional salons worldwide use GHD irons. They are salon grade robust, and built to last. And with several different plate options, there is unlikely to be a style on the planet that can’t be created with their use. Using quality hair straighteners will undoubtedly give peace of mind. A good range of propriety products, recommended for use with the straighteners, will minimise damage and give stunning looking results.

Autumn Weddings: The Lost Gold Mine of the Wedding Universe

Friday, February 15th, 2008

By Jeanette Shinn Autumn weddings are an excellent choice for individuals to whom financial resources are limited and even better for whom resources are not limited. You see, the peak of wedding season tends to run from approximately May through September, so if you plan your wedding for a date outside this time frame you have a better chance of getting a better price from the wedding professionals you hire (not to mention hotel prices). Indeed, with an autumn wedding you will even have a better opportunity to get your first choice of wedding professionals, which might mean better wedding flowers or a more spectacular wedding cake than you would have otherwise been able to afford. Likewise, the autumn wedding season itself presents an excellent opportunity to celebrate your marriage and your new life as husband and wife. With the craziness of summer behind you the fall season brings with it new opportunities for gathering friends and family together for a wedding celebration that you will remember for many years to come. Furthermore, an autumn wedding not only looks and feels different from your run of the mill June wedding, but because the very differences of an autumn wedding have the potential to make your wedding party spectacular. The rich yet understated colors of autumn, for example, give the florist the opportunity to create the warm, inviting, and even elegant wedding atmosphere that every bride dreams of. Imagine the beauty of crystal in front of a roaring fire or flickering candlelight framed in the rich colors of fall as you and your new husband celebrate your new marriage. Speaking of candles, dont forget to include your unity candle in the theme by choosing a candle with actual fall blossoms that have been dried and pressed into the candle. If you are so inclined, this can be a great do-it-yourself project but such unity candles are also available premade for you if you so choose. The nip in the fall air means plush materials such as velvets, felted fabrics, and furs (synthetic or real) will be welcomed by the eye even if no one ever touches it. These materials speak of warmth, and warmth is inviting when the air is getting colder as we move toward winter not to mention how much more comfortable your new husband will be in his tuxedo than he would be in the heat of summer. Fall centerpieces are not limited to displays of fruits, vegetables, and foliage though many beautiful wedding reception centerpieces have been built from such and are often available to you at little or no cost. A single candle in a wine glass with a wine charm on the base makes a simple yet tasteful centerpiece for a fall wedding. Or choose a taller gel candle with a smaller bouquet of your wedding flowers to surround it. Serve hot spiced wine and hot apple cider to continue the autumn theme for your wedding and reflect the warmth of love you feel for your guests that have chosen to celebrate your wedding with you. You might choose a fall run Chinook or King Salmon for the main course of your fall wedding reception dinner with baked apples for desert or some food selection that says autumn in your particular corner of the country. Of course, autumn suggests numerous possibilities for your choice in wedding favors. Leaf designs on coasters or candles are popular, as are cookies in the shape of leaves. Specially packaged hot Cocoa mix is a particularly welcome treat, especially for the children. For the adults, perhaps soap petals, bubble bath, or bath salts since there are few things more welcome on a chilly fall day than a hot bath. Of course we cant forget one of the greatest benefits of a fall wedding: Simply put, an autumn wedding is an outstanding choice because the coming of cooler weather means more opportunities for snuggling with your new husband!
