Best ab machine at gym after weight loss?

I go to Planet Fitness, what machines are best for abs after extreme weight loss, but while I still have very little tone and muscle strength in that region? Frustrated!

How to Lose Weight in Your Cheeks

Recommended Answer:

One machine stands out for getting rid of a fat stomach. I'm a certified personal trainer. All the time people ask me "What machine will get rid of this?" as they grab ahold of their fat stomach.I tell them that there is one machine that beats out all other machines for getting rid of abdominal fat. It is your legs. Yes, you heard me: the legs. Your legs are a powerful machine. And this machine will get rid of stomach fat -- but only if you know which exercises to perform.So, the truth is, there is no abdominal gym "machine" that will swipe off belly fat. But other gym machines will do the trick -- machines that involve your legs!Leg routines that will knock off stomach fat: 1) high intensity interval training, and 2) plyometrics.Leg routines with machines that will get rid of abdominal fat: 1) squats, 2) deadlifts, 3) leg presses.

how long can feline distemper (panleukopenia) live on surfaces in the house?

Last month, I brought in a cat that eventually died of feline distemper under a vet's care. She seemed healthy when I received her, but her health rapidly declined and she stopped eating, was hiding, losing weight fast, throwing up.. all the signs of feline distemper. I brought her to the vet as soon as I noticed, and they admitted her, but she died the next day. The previous owners told me that she had been vaccinated, the cat was 2 years old and I took their word for it. When my vet called for her records, we learned she had only had a rabies vaccine. They diagnosed her with panleukopenia AKA feline distemper. She was dehydrated so they gave her fluids, but her body would not absorb them. Anyway, I went home, disinfected everything multiple times and cried myself to sleep, feeling guilty that I had not noticed earlier. I rescue multiple cats, and with all of them, sometimes it is hard to spot things, although I usually do make rounds and check all the cats, make sure they are eating and not coming down with something. Anyway, I got all my cats examined by the vet after this, and they were all ok, and still are. They are all vaccinated.Two weeks later, I received some kittens that had not been vaccinated though, a total of 6. They got a vaccination 2 days after they arrived, but 2 of them got really sick. They were also diagnosed with feline distemper!! One did not survive it, the other is still recovering but we expect him to be ok. Is it possible that they got this from my home, even though I disinfected multiple times before they arrived, and it was 2 weeks after the first cat passed? I am about to give up rescuing, it is very hard to cope with the loss of these precious animals.

Recommended Answer:

You cannot bring unvaccinated or under vaccinated cats into your home for a year. The distemper virus is a parvo virus, and near impossible to kill in a home environment. It only takes one tiny piece of cat litter with the virus on it to start the cycle anew. It persists in the environment for up to a year. You can still rescue, but no cats or kittens who's vaccination status is unknown, and no kittens who are too young for at least two FVRCP vaccines.

Is it possible to lose 20-25 pounds in a month?

I just realized that I don't like my body. I'm 16 and I'm 5'4 and 170 pounds :( I want to lose some weight. I'll keep trying after a month but I'm just seeing how much I could lose in about a month or 2 monthsI'm planning to drink only water, eat really healthy (no eating out. eating a good breakfast with fruits) and walking/jogging 2-3 miles everyday or at leat 6/7 days.

How to Lose Weight Without Eating Healthy

Recommended Answer:

In order to lose that much in just a month, you'd have to go on a crazy diet.You can do that, but you will have every single second of that month .Furthermore, motivation is limited. Even implying that you would be able to keep that crazy died for as long as a month, after you're done, you'll just get back to your old habbits and gain weight again.I belive the best and only way to lose weight is to change your whole lifestyle (not just for 2 months). And for that you need to take it easily. It is a slow ,but safe way.P.S: start the change from tommorow, and keep thinking what you will loke like in half a year from now :)

• You're just now realizing that you're 50 lbs overweight? Your ideal weight is about 120. Whatever size clothes you fit into weighing 120 that's your ideal size. When your pants get too tight, you don't buy larger clothes; you eat a grapefruit instead of a meal, instead of gaining and gaining. Now you have 50 to lose, but you can do it in just 5 mo. with this low-carb food/exercise plan:Breakfast: Cook 9-grain cereal (from health food store) in water with rolled oats and wheat bran. Make a pot of it on weekends and nuke 1/2 cup each morning. Then stir in low fat milk or yogurt, banana, walnuts and berries. Drink hot Ovaltine. Breakfast should be your largest meal of the day to raise blood sugar level which falls during the night.Lunch: Egg, tuna or turkey ½ sandwich on multi-grain (not just whole wheat) bread with bean or alfalfa sprouts, yogurt, fresh fruit. If you had meat loaf for dinner, bring a meat loaf sandwich on whole grain bread (NO mayo). On cold days, a squatty thermos of hot chili, split peas with ham, or beef stew.Snacks: Fresh (not canned) fruit. Nothing ever from a vending machine. Dinner: salad with white meat chicken and fresh (not canned) veggies: tomatoes, 2 kinds of lettuce, 2 kinds of shredded cabbage, shredded or sliced carrots, alfalfa or bean sprouts, zucchini, green or red peppers, hard boiled eggs, brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, tofu, cottage cheese...Instead of dressing, squeeze 1/4 tomato over it. Or homemade bean/vegetable soups; great way to recycle leftovers.Or grilled fish with steamed veggies.Or omelet: In blender, whip together eggs, tofu, cottage cheese, onions, garlic powder. Cook with mushrooms, chopped tomatoes and green or red peppers. Avoid junk food, fast foods, pastries, desserts, anything with sugar (cancer cells feed on sugar), gluten, syrup (even canned fruit in syrup), peanut butter, fat/grease (pork, wieners, chops, bacon, salami, pizza, chips, fries), pasta, potatoes, ramen, popcorn, white bread, rice, canned veggies, ice cream, soda, chips, tobacco, alcohol and coffee. No oil except olive and mac nut. To keep your skin clear, drink water, tea, unsweetened veggie and fruit juice. Join a gym; they have all the equipment and staff to show you how to use it to get the look you want to achieve, but you have to ask them. Much cheaper than buying your own equipment. Go hiking, biking, jogging, bowling, swimming, rowing, jump rope, play tennis, badminton, volleyball, soccer, jumping jacks, lift weights, trampoline? To tone your tummy, do sit ups, push ups, pull ups, leg lifts, butt raises and crunches.For more energy, take Super B complex. Try appetite suppressants.
• It is possible to loss 20-25 pounds a month if you don't eat anything, but I do not recommend it. Exercise daily, eat well every meal, and get enough sleep. You will loss weight gradually but you will be able to maintain your (lighter) weight and not gain it back later.
• I don't know if that's possible. I doubt it. I have been working out hard for the last two weeks (6 days a week on Insanity) and have only lost around 9lbs. I eat healthily, keeping calories low, and the workouts are really tough. I really don't see how I could have lost any more than this. I haven't cheated at all. No fizzy drinks, no beer, fast food, sweets....nothing. I couldn't have tried harder than I have if I wanted to. I don't want to put you off though. I feel stronger that I ever have already, have lost a couple of inches round my stomach already and will keep pushing. If losing weight was so easy, these programmes wouldn't exist. Just work hard and you'll get there no problem. The other thing you have going for you is that you are only 16. I am 27, so it's bound to be harder for me. My body is more set in its ways and has been filled with junk for years. Your body will react very well to this sort of exercise. Your metabolism will be better, you'll gain muscle mass faster and you'll set yourself up for life. Go for it. You'll never look back. Good luck.
• I'm done with my weight loss journey and completely happy with how I feel and how I look right now however losing weight is a challenge for anyone and even losing 5 pounds and keeping it off isn't an easy task. Also I bet you didn't know that 5 pounds of fat is about the size of 8 cheese burgers? That alone should be enough to make anyone want to get on the ball and start a change for the better. Weight loss can be really easy to learn but the problem is nobody wants to put the required effort that is needed to actually do it, instead people continually look for (easy) ways to do it. If there was an easy way to lose weight I don't think 35% of Americans would be obese. There was a time when I also wanted to lose weight and was tired of starting diets only to lose motivation and give up just a few weeks later after seeing no results. However, let me tell you it is literally one of the easiest things you will ever learn once you find a good and reputable place to learn it from and I say that only because the world is filled with magic diet pills, liquid flush diets and a thousand other quick fixes that promise xx pounds of weight loss in the first week and even though it is impossible they know you're going to do it because your desperate. I have probably tried every diet pill, liquid flush diet, and ab rocket machine known to man and have had no success with any of them nor do I know anyone that has ever had any success with them. I have also tried starving myself which works very well for the first few weeks' right before your metabolism comes to a complete stop and eating just the tiny bit makes you gain weight and you end up weighing more than you did before you started starving yourself. Companies promote weight loss to make money not to get people healthy again and that's because they know you're not going to be a customer and buy their products if you're no longer fat. http://fatloossfactor.com is a site I want you to go to when you have 10 or 20 minutes to spare and I want you to sit down and watch his video on weight loss. He helps people every day to lose weight I have never seen someone as committed as him and that will go so far out of his way to help someone. His weight loss program is one of the best I have ever had the enjoyment of doing and it is without doubt the best success I have ever had with any weight loss program. I also couldn't be happier with my body right now and I have never felt this wonderful in my whole life. In the end you just got to remember to stick with it and stay confident in yourself and in no time you can achieve the results you have always wanted. It's not hard to lose weight but most people have a hard time staying motivated and 9 times out of 10 it was because they weren't really committed from the beginning. Anyways I hope I helped you and I hope you make the commitment to change your body and life. Remember it's not easy to take the first step but you did, you're here right now taking it and the rest of the steps will fall into place. Have a wonderful day.

How to Lose Weight By Eating Fruits

Recommended Answer:

The key to fat loss is not exercise, it's diet.Any exercise will burn calories but no exercise will burn fat unless your diet allows it. You can burn fat in your sleep or you can run all day and never burn any fat. It all depends on your diet. Fat loss is determined by calorie control, not by exercise. Good exercises for burning calories are speed walking, biking, swimming, dancing, etc. and ANY other physical activity which makes you move a lot of weight for a long time. But NO exercise is good for burning fat if you eat too many calories because you can always eat more calories than you can burn but you can't always burn as many as you take in.Too many people waste energy and time because they do not understand this one simple point. The result is too often giving up in frustration, abandoning gym memberships they continue to pay for, and many other unnecessary problems not the least of which is a lack of success. An average person must walk about five miles every day for a week to burn the calories equivalent to a pound of body fat. So, unless you think walking about five miles a day (or doing an equivalent amount of exercise) with no guarantee of fat loss makes sense, focus your fat loss program on diet.Diet for fat loss. Exercise for fitness. When you are in a fat loss mode and burning body fat, it is your body (based on your genetics) and only your body that determines where that fat loss will happen. You have absolutely no control over where your body loses fat first, last, and in between no matter what you do. It is not possible to lose fat only from a specific part of your body of your choosing. Where your body stores and removes fat is determined by your genetics and there is nothing you can do to change that short of radical procedures such as liposuction. And, in general, where it stores fat first is where it will lose it last and visa versa. The world of health and fitness has an unfortunate abundance of myths and spot reduction is one of them. There is no exercise, no pill, no supplements, no spa treatment, and no natural way to spot reduce. Your only choice is to create a caloric deficit with diet and preferably some exercise, burn fat, and wait for it to leave the desired body parts.Some women may be disappointed to learn that they can't remove their unwanted belly fat without losing a cup size or two. And, some men may be disappointed to find out they can't get a ripped abdomen without cutting into their essential body fat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spot_reductionhttp://www.exrx.net/WeightTraining/Myths.htmlhttp://www.fitnesstipsforlife.com/the-spot-reduction-myth.htmlTo find out how the best minds in nutrition in the world (at the US NIH) have recommended for decades we lose fat, read my answer about how to lose fat --> http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=As615QJM4X_3ID9_05qmmlXty6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20111028185603AAVcP4D Exercising your legs aerobically (eg: elliptical, treadmill, bike) will not build very much muscle. Muscle size comes from intense contractions for a short time. So, lose the fat and do the elliptical (or just walk a lot) and you should have great thighs.Good luck and good health!!♠
