 Abs I have just started to excercise, and I need a little advice about what to do. Today I walked 3 miles on the treadmill(35-55min), then did weight excercise. My plays professional basketball and he told me that I should only walk 15-20min on the treadmill and the exercise. I figured he knows what he's talking about since he works out everyday. Is he correct. Should I only spend 15-20min on the TM. I am trying to lose weight fast. Around 45lbs in 7 months. What do you recommend that I do. I do not want to take any pills. I go to the gym everyday.

 Abs I run on the treadmill 4-6 times a week and burn about 500 cals in 36 mins, after that I do about 30-40 mins of weight training. I can see muscle definition taking place, but my stomach doesn't seem to be getting any leaner. I can feel abs underneath and sort of see them, but how can I achieve that "LEAN" look? What kind of diet should I be eating? (I'm always on the go).?Please help, I'm very confused. Thanx.

 Exercises I have been working to increase the muscle on my arms for about 3 months now. I'm 15, and started with small weights and progressed from there, when I felt comfortable doing so. I am wondering if you can provide me with some helpful hints of what to do, and what NOT to do when I am exercising. (For instance, what is the correct way, alternate styles, etc). Thanks for the help! Later

 Misc. I would like to know the answers to the following questions: how can you determine how strenuous an exercise is? Why does a person perspire more after they run than while they are running? How do you account for the fact that some people wil score in the excellent category in one fitness test, but only in the fair or good category in another? If someone reaches platzaus with their training, they get steady progress and then for no apparent reason, their performance level is off or decreases, What could they do about this problem? What are the effects of sleep on exercise? What is second wind? Are women different from men in their ability to exercise? At what sped does jogging become running? Thank you for your cooperation, I would really appreciate the answers.
