In addition to doing frequent cardio work such as on a treadmill or elliptical, a weight lifting program can really further your progress a…

I’m a U16 Girls football/soccer keeper, and we’ve got a break in playing and practising, so I’m wondering what some good exercises would be, and some good training tips/workout things to do. I have a treadmill and an elliptical, and a bike. Also, if there are any diet tips, or things that would be specifically beneficial to me being a goalie, those would help. Thanks!

on the 18th of this month I’m going back to school and I’m not fat but, not skinny either (~I’d say closer to skinny however~). I’d really like to lose about 5-10 more pounds however:) What’s a good excise for an 8th grader going to school? I only take about 5 minutes to an hour to do my homework (~it just depends on what it is~) so, I’d be able to spend most of my after school time to do some workouts. I want a workout that’s really good for your thighs and stomach! I have a treadmill and an AB lounger but, I want some variety so I don’t get bored with it and quit! So what’s some good after school excises for your stomach and thighs? please help I’ll give you 10 points!!!

PS. I really want some excises that will get me fast results and really work:)

Run on a treadmill for 17 minutes and average 8 mph ( 9 mph max. speed) or go for abut 32 minutes and average 6.8 mph ( 7.5 mph max speed)

So, I have a hard time working out. I mean, I love the feeling I get after I work out (who doesn’t!). The problem is that I haven’t worked out for weeks…no months. I used to be on my high school basketball team and I have gained so much excess weight after that. No I’m not overweight, I just wish I’d have my flat tummy back. I tried working out on the treadmill, but it’s SO hard. Everytime I get on the most I can do is 15-20 minutes TOPS. That’s on 3.0 with an incline of 1.0.

After that, I get really sweaty and breathless, and I have to run to the bathroom ‘cuz I get cramps really bad and I can barely stand. If I don’t throw up just plain yellow liquid, I stay in the bathroom until I pass gas, or excrement. I have no idea what’s wrong with me, I just wanna work out! Please HELP.

A workout plan would help, or recommendations of food that would stop this. My treadmill is stuck on incline of 1.0 and it won’t go down! So please keep that in mind when you answer.

Thanks a ton.

Okay so today I went on the treadmill and did a workout. The treadmill was a really nice one and asked me to enter my weight (110 lbs.) to calculate calories burned. I did a jog/run workout at speeds between 5 MPH and 6.5 MPH for about an hour. And the treadmill was at a 1% incline the whole time.

The treadmill said that I burned 576 calories. Is this accurate since I entered my weight prior to doing it?

I’m 15, f, weigh 127, and i’m 5′3.

Every other weekday: 1 mile on the treadmill.

OK cross country starts on the 20th of August and I just started running yesterday on my treadmill like i would run a half hour straight then a lil later run for like 20 minutes. Now for my cross country team you need to run 2.5 miles under twenty minutes at Van Cortland Park in the Bronx. So, i have 7 days left..what do i do in order to b under that time slot. Workouts would be nice and tips anything for running is very greatly appreciated

For the first ten minutes warm up with a light job at 5.0 mph - (0:00 - 10:00)
10:00 - 10:20 - Sprint at 7.5 mph
10:20 - 11:20 - Jog at 5.0 mph
11:20 - 11:40 - Sprint at 7.5 mph
11:40 - 12:40 - Jog at 5.0 mph
12:40 - 13:00 - Sprint at 7.5 mph
13:00 - 14:00 - Jog at 5.0 mph
14:00 - 17:00 - Continue to Jog at 5.0 mph
17:00 - 27:00 - Run at 6.5 mph
27:00 - 31:00 - Jog at 5.0 mph
31:00 - 35:00 - Run at 6.5 mph
35:00 - 39:00 - Jog at 5.0 mph
39:00 - 55:00 - Repeat minutes 31- 39:00 twice
55:00 - 60:00 - Cool down at a slow pace jog/walk

The treadmill is at a 1 percent incline the whole time. I’m 110 lbs.

That OR running at a 1 degree incline for 45 minutes at 7 MPH. The treadmill I was doing it on is calculating the calories burned for someone who weighs a 150 pounds, but it said that the first workout burned more. It would seem running straight for 45 minutes would?

Any help? (I’m 110 pounds)
