Exercising for a 14 year old?
I am 14 5'2 and I weigh 113-115.And I try not to eat after 6:00 and i'm drinking lots of water. I'd like to get down to somewhere between 107-110 before Christmas. what types of exercises should I do. I'm thinking about jogging for about 10-15 minutes and then I have some floor execises that I like to do. So if you have any other tips that could help let me know! :]
Thanks God bless You
                     




<3life
eating after six is not bad!!! that's a myth

don't skip meals
cut out most or all sugary drinks (soda, most juices...etc.)
drink 8-10 glasses of filtered water
walk/jog with friends or ur dog at u local park
after school only spend 15mins watching tv or on the comp.
then go exercise
try eating less than 300 calories after school then eat dinner

good luck


Scott R
Walk, run, jog, jump rope, trampeline or any sport will help you burn calories.


War Dog
the jogging idea is quite good! but extend it to about 20-30 minutes? or more... around there =)

i'm 15 5'3 and weigh 99lbs.

but keep eating but not too much junk food then you'll be fine
though you must eat. its not healthy to be so thin maybe lose a few lbs but then okay =) tc

Ask your parents to take you to the doctor and let he/she know that you'd like to get in better shape. The doctor will give you some advice and then apply that advice to your every day life. Good luck to you.

Well you could go and run like hell but it's not going to help in a short period of time. Your body only loses weight if it has an overload. So if you use more energy than you can obtain through food. i would recommend eating lots of fruit and vegetable, pasta, rice. Food is an important aspect in losing weight. You need weighted exercises to lose weight. That way your body will spend energy in building up muscle and uses fat for that. This way, the body becomes leaner and obtains a nice shape while it uses the fat reserves for power. So:

- Eat healthy stuff
- Do some training with weights (you dont have to follow Schwarzenegger's schedule, it's just that this way you get faster results)
- Do a little cardio to get rid of wasteproducts through sweat.

Hope this answers your question.

Well,it really depends on how many calories you eat.Lets say you it 1500 calories a a day.Just to let you know you burn about 1000 calories just by walking.So if you ate 1500 calories a day for a week and burned 1000 extra calories,you would lose a pound a week.
Some exercises are:
-running
-jump rope
-swimming
-skating
-any sport that includes running

Good luck!

A good work out for your calve muscles (behind ur lower leg) is Skippiing in the spot for a number of minutes. Then take a minute break. And then you do 5 mins. Then a break, then another 5 mins...It helps to do this to an up beat song :)

Stop eating when you're really full. Too many people eat after they're full.
Eat light meals, with a light and healthy snack in between. It'll keep your metabolism up and going. Try a piece of fruit or something.

join a swim team.
i've been swimming since i was 5 and it keeps me in shape.
i swim 3 times a week (great cardio!), i eat LOTS of fruits and veggies (thats my breakfast and half of my dinner), and i go running about 4 times a week.
(the swimming season doesn't usually start until fall. check out your local YMCA to see if you can join. or maybe your middle school/jr high has a team. mine didn't so i stuck with YMCA til high school.)
good luck!
god bless YOU!

your current routine is all right but if you think you can squeeze in some more, do some

leg-ups to maintain your lower abdomen flat

do some more cardio exercises like jumping on a trampoline..

swimming dailey for like 1hr 30min-helps

Jogging for 15 minutes is not enough. Gradually increase the timing to around half hour. Your intake of food should include salads and fibres . Shifting to vegetarian food until you loose weight will be ideal. Do not starve and spread your intake three or four times in small quantities.

Swimming is great for arms, and dancing can help after a week of doing it just for half an hour a day. Trampolining helps your legs and jog for about twenty minutes, it will be more effective, use an ipod to keep you occupied or take a dog...


ohhsofamouss
Do some running and video exercises. Get a great Tae-Bo video. Keeping your heart rate up when exercising is what's gonna let you know it's working and your working hard.

don't listen to the noeborn guy person!
Creatine is VERY bad for you and you can die from it!
plus its a weight GAIN when you take that
(its for football players who need to gain weight.)
its just like a steroid!



anyways keep to your exersises.
and drink lots of water.
Make sure you burn more calories then you eat!
drink ice water as soon as you wake up in the morning.

you need to do a detox before you start losing weight.
dont drink any soda, a good alternative to soda is cranberry juice and club soda together. tastes great.
and eat really healthily. Eggs are good, oat meal is good, and whole grains.
no processed food or deserts.
do at least one hour of excersize a day, and kep your self busy so your not tempted to eat out of boredum.

Good luck.

Ah, but you see, the trick is to not freak about the way you look at 14. Goodness me, you're 14. Not 40. your body is still shaping up. I went through a puppy-fat stage at the same.. well, stage. And I did the wrong thing by starving myself and trying to exercise the fat away.

Listen to one thing at least... Starving yourself from dinner to dawn simply makes the body kick into fat storage over-drive. It will begin to store more fat than if you ate a light snack a couple hours after dinner. It doesn't have to be something loaded with cream. But fruit, fruit salad, whatever you choose- because starving isn't the way to go.

Exercise normally. Nothing rash. you do not want to become another "She got anorexia at 15" statistic. Okay?

There are lots of exercise plans, if you want to do what others claim works for them. All you need to do is Google for them. There are some with high reps, with wrist and ankle weights; and using equipment- if you have an orbital at home, say.

But 10-15 mins of jogging should be fine. And floor exercises.

That reminds me, I have to let my rat out. But good luck!

you don't need to lose weight..
just eat healthier..
And remember that muscle weighs more than fat


bubbleteagirl
You sound like a good healthy weight to me. I'd really suggest asking your doctor about a safe exercise plan for your weight loss goals before taking any of our suggestions...

But, with that said, the water is a good thing. Although, not eating after 6:00pm... why are you doing that, I'm confused? If you maintain your blood sugar at a steady level throughout the day, your body won't start converting sugars to fat. If your blood sugar drops, and then you eat again, your body will turn the carbs/sugars into fat. So, the exercise won't really help you lose weight, but it will help you stay fit and healthy.

It is better to eat smaller meals and healthy snacks throughout the day. Never skip meals. Always eat breakfast, this should be your biggest meal of the day. Eat a healthy lunch. Eat a light dinner. Snack on fresh veggies throughout the day to keep you full and away from unhealthy snacks. Also, make sure to have small snacks that include carbs and protein too, like a piece of cheese on a cracker or peanut butter on a cracker or half a cup of yogurt. Fruit is okay too, but you don't need as many servings as fruit as you do veggies.

If you eat like that, you will really be eating the exact same amount as you are eating now ('cept you will probably eat a lot more veggies, which totally won't make you gain weight or really increase your calories at all), but you won't be gaining weight/fat so exercise will actually help you loose weight/fat.

Just remember, the longer you wait between meals and snacks, the more your body will convert carbs and sugars to fat instead of allowing you to burn them off through activity.

As for what activity you choose to do... pick one you really like! That way you'll actually do it! Exercise doesn't have to feel like exercise at all. Floor activities are good. I'd suggest walking instead of jogging just because jogging is hard on the knees. Swimming is a great exercise. Bike riding is really good to. Do your parents drive you to school? If your school has a secure bike lock up, I'd suggest asking your parents if you could bike to school instead. And sports are also a good type of exercise. Just have fun no matter what you do!

* There is an online community that will help you everyday for free and provide you with all the knowledge you need to become the better you! http://www.anabolicminds.com/forum *

Check out the female fitness forum there!!!

~ Fundamental Guidelines ~

- Workout hard - There are many different workout regimes, many that work well. Generally: Strength training is in the 6 rep range / Bodybuilding in the 8-10 rep range. - Rep range warmup: 15 ( sets 1 & 2 ) Working: 10, 8, 6 last three sets add drop sets to failure )


- Fast Efficient Workouts = 1hr - This is not hard and fast but studies have shown that Cortisol rises after 1hr


- Protein shake immediately after workout and then protein meal with carbs etc within 1hr


- Creatine - Mono or CEE you decide. Both before and after workout.


- Daily meals - 5 - 6 day ( including shakes ) protein = 1g per pound of body weight. Meal 1 ( breakies ) is shake plus oatmeal or whatever else you want ( apple is good fibre / system crap mover ), Meal 6 is post workout shake with creatine etc and then solid food meal. Carbs tapered down from morning to evening and fats tapered up from morning to evening. Protein is a constant.


- Sleep 8 - 10 hrs a night ( very imp for all natural BB'ers )


- Supps - Do you note the order in which these are and where supps come??? - a) Multivitamin / B complex b) Whey protein c) creatine e) Test boosters / stacks etc

~ Exercises ~

- Squats - Biggest muscle and boosts test like crazy, work em hard and see results big time.


- Deadlifts / Chins / Bent over Rows / Pulldowns - 1st attempt either an palm up or palm down chin at the beginning of your back workout, if you can do one, try two, if you can do 15, add weight. Most important for back is to make the mind / muscle connection. Concentrate ( start with low weight and excellent form ) on getting a good contraction and not swinging with the weight. Calm controlled up down with good squeeze of lats at bottom of rep. All about the connection / squeeze


- Leg press


- Flat Bench Dumbell / Barbell - Always swap it up, it takes more muscle etc to do dumbells ( stabilizing muscles etc ) but switch it up - Start with dips to hit lower chest then move to flat bench / incline.


- Core work - Abs / lower back - work the weaker, harder.
