Argh I’ve read so many advice from all these people and there’s soooooo many misconceptions that hurt people instead of helping.
1) You resistance train before cardio because in the beginning your using up quick stored energy instead of the fat on your body. Cardio burns more fat so do it when all the stored energy has been used.
2) Toning does not exist. Tone is just the state of your relaxed muscle. If you do high reps low weight your muscles build more endurance and firmer they don’t look any better or have any better definition.
3) Doing ab exercises does not give you abs. There is no such thing as “spot reduction.” Losing the fat on your stomach requires dieting and cardio.
4) Doing ab exercises w/o additional weight only gives you endurance not muscle growth.
5) You can’t exercises crazily and not diet and expect good results.
6) There are NO quick fixes, any dramatic change takes time to do it right and to do it well.
I would like to get in better shape for health reasons, I have high blood pressure. Thanks in advance. . .
im a girl, 14years old, range from 5′3” to 5′7” possibly but im not sure and im around 125 to 135 lbs. I want to join my track&feild team in high school but I am usually pretty lazy at home and have never done any sports teams before so i really need to get into shape. I started trying to jog 1 mile & when i get tired i just walk for a couple minutes and breathe in deeply then start jogging again. the first time I jogged around 1 mile it took me 20 minutes, the second time it took me around 17-20 again,the 3rd time a family member came and when i would start walking after i got tired he would let me walk a few steps and incouraged me to keep jogging and that day i shaved off 7 minutes and got down to 13 minutes. Its been about 3-4 weeks now since i started jogging and i havent gone every single day but i have been averaging 12-14 minutes now. I heard my high school track team in intense and im gonna need lk bionic legs to survive if i make it so i really wanna build up my endurance so i wont get as tired so easily. i can run pretty fast already just if i run fast i loose all my energy. before i go i stretch out my calfs to prevent leg splints. what can i do so i wont loose my breathe so fast and last longer without walking? what should i eat/drink/stretch before my mile? track season starts in the spring and its only augest so how can i go down from like 13 minutes to maybe 7 before spring? also my mom has been telling me if ur lungs can hold more oxygen you wont get tired as easily so shes been telling me to do this exercise the deep sea divers do before diving into the sea without oxygen and going as far as they can. my mom tells me to breathe in as much oxygen as i can threw my nose then breathe in 2 more breaths. she says that will help expand my lungs. i bought a stopwatch and pedometer and good running shoes and bring my ipod with me and listen to music because i though it would distract my mind from the fact that im tired but it doesnt really help
any other tips would be fine too

Does anyone know what the distance is of the entire circumference of the Oxford University Park? I’ve tried looking on our website, I’ve tried multimap and G Pedometer Maps, but I cannot find anything that actually marks what the distance is!!!!
Does any one know, a member of the Oxford University Running Club might be a little bit too much to ask for on here, but you never know……….
