I want to go from a 9:55 to at least 8:55. Is this realistic? And also whenever I'm out in the heat I get exhausted quickly and throw up after running because of this. I feel like if I push myself when I run I'll throw up or faint. I know it's not dehydration because I drink a lot of water. Any tips?

 

Hey girlie, it's totally realistic, but you have to keep in mind that it could take time. Just slowly start running faster until you feel more comfortable running the full mile at that pace. The heat can do that, so it's best when it's warm outside to run early in the morning or later at night when it's cooler. You'll have to push yourself some to improve, but you don't have to push yourself too hard. If you start to feel sick slow down.

Heyy!! I was wondering that if a daily mini work out everyday would work (25 curl ups/ 5push ups/ stretching to increase flexibility) which increases or stays that number depending on how much I can do that day, is that. Good mini workout if I shower everyday(which I do)....
I trying to lose weight (177 and want to be 140-150) if I continue that for a year or more and I eat healthy foods by watching what I'm eating, how much and calories Will I be able to pull that off??
Are there any other things I should add to my work out like 40jumping jacks or something??

 

Hey icegal, yup I think that workout will work. It's really good you're staring out with an exercise regimen that works for your body, that is most important. You never want to force yourself to do exhausting exercises because that will only cause you to loose interest. I think adding music will help you. Music gets the heart pumping and gets you excited. Also begin visualizing yourself in your perfect form in the clothes you'd like to wear. Try that twice a day, for a few minutes in the morning and at night. Hope this helps! Xoxo

I want to start running. I don't know when would be the best time, or what the best temp. would be. I live in the midwest and we don't have a treadmill. Soooo, Idk what to do.




Hey girlie,

The best time to start running...is NOW! Depending on the person, different times of day work better for exercising. Some people love starting their day with an early-morning workout - running gives you a jolt of adrenaline, aka energy, which is perf for the morning! Other people like to do it after a long day to release stress and sort out their thoughts. Give these both a try and see which works best for you. Don't worry about temperature - just make sure you wear weather-appropriate clothes that are loose/easy to move around in. And go for it!!!

I run a mile in gym and have a time of 9:30 and I want it to be 7 minutes. I am also ____ pounds and I really need to lose at least 10 pounds. I also here you must work leg and stomach muscles. Is there an advanced routine that can help?

I want to try to run my mile in under 9:30 in gym class. Now, we stopped running the mile but I want the time of 7:20. I also hear that you must work your leg and stomach muscles. Is there an advanced workout that will help me and burn lots of fat.

MOD, there's a track near my house of about 3 miles. It's open on Tuesdays, and I go there every week. I do a mix between jogging and running. I've been going for 5 weeks. It takes me a little less than an hour to do one lap. I'm not so sure; do you think I can do two laps? I have a bit more than two hours every week there before I have to go home! Thanx!




If you want to do two laps go for it! But don't over exert yourself and be sure to stay hydrated.

Hey mod! well i run track and cross country and absolutley adore running. i hav 2 running sitches tho and i was wondering if u could help me? this october me and 3 friends are running the baltimore marathon as part of a relay team and i hav 2 run 7 miles for it. do u have any ideas to help me prepare? and also i really wanna break the mile record @ my school, which is 5:43. i got a 6:13 back in the fall, do you hav any ideas to help me drop the 30 seconds? thank so much mod sorry that this post it so long!
xoxo Emily




Hey Emily,

That is so cool! I have lots of friends who have run the Bmore Marathon and they had a great time. To run 7 miles without stopping, you'll have to do lots of preparation before the big day. Start now and run as much as you can in one workout. See how long it was - 2 miles? 3 miles? Since you run cross country, you'll probably be even more prepared than you think! Every week from now til the marathon, try running slightly longer with each workout. If you can run at least a little every day, it'll help! Then, by October, you should be able to run 7 miles easily without stopping. It'll take some discipline to increase your workout every week (or to push yourself slightly beyond what feels "comfy" to you when you're running), but you can do this!! As for breaking the record...to be honest, I'm not great at running with FAST times. But I'd imagine it's about pacing - take the first half of the mile slow and steady, then push yourself as hard as you can for the last half. Keep training and trying hard! <3

MOD! MOD! MOD! Everyone has always said that I am super skinny--I think I am too. The weird thing is, I weigh more than all my friends that look exactly like me. I don't get it. A lot of my friends are the same size as me, but weigh like 75 pounds while I weigh about 85. It just doesn't make any sense! I asked my mom, and she said it's because I am muscular from all the exercising I do. I think that may be why, but I'm not sure. Help!'

 

 

Hey girl,

Everyone's weight is distributed differently. And like your mom said, it's probably because you've built up muscle from working out.

Hi, I have stupid asthma and I have to take a lot of medicine. I loved to run but when I do I get winded and I need to go home or the doctors and take more meds which make me feel sometimes worse. I hate asthma, I got it when I became very sick and needed to be hospitalized for 2 weeks.I was told to do more sports, so i'm in basketball right now and I get winded to. My asthma is caused by almost all the trees and plants in my city, I also am allergic to my favorite things, peanut butter, peanuts, sun flower seeds, pumpkin seeds, walnuts and almonds.
How and i suppose to deal with asthma, It's controlling my life!




Hey girlie,

You have to talk to your doctor about this! They are professionals and can help you with nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle tips. You won't be able to go totally back to the way things were because your "normal" has changed now - but it's all for the sake of your health, which is important. Ease into sports and gradually get better at planning your workouts/meals based on what your body can handle. Definitely trust your doctor and take his/her advice <3 You can learn how to live with this, I know it!

I'm going to the beach next friday with a few of my friends to visit our bff who moved. I have already made a bet to not eat any desserts/sugary things before the trip. I've been walking almost everyday but the thing i need to work on are my inner things and abs. I have a short torso already so i want it to be lean. I'm not really wanting to lose weight, just tone up. Any inner thigh and ab workouts I can do? Thanks!!




Hey babe,

Try yoga or pilates workouts online to get long, lean muscles! They help you burn fat and, more importantly, build muscles without getting too bulky. You can also use the following exercises to mix things up!

I have Crohn's disease but I really want to do track. I didn't think Crohn's could keep me from doing that, but I get really tired easily and red faced from just jogging from one side of the court and back. We've been training in off season for some while and I feel like I will never get better. Will ever get better at running without feeling like I'm about to die??




Hey girlie,

You have to ask your doctor if you're able to do physical activity like this. It's possible that you're just out of shape and psyching yourself out. If you've never worked out before, it's going to take training and hard work to gradually be able to run without getting tired. But since you do have a medical condition, you need to consult your doctor to make sure it's safe and possible for you to do this. If you are feeling winded because of Crohn's, you could choose a sport that revolves less around running, manage a sports team at your school, or join a different club! <3 Ya gotta work with your bod to make sure you're the healthiest you can be.

Hey gymnastics111, you may not be able to run but you can do other exercises inside your home. Try jumping jacks, push ups, sit ups, and leg lunges. Do these for a couple hours each day. Your bod will stay looking fit. Hope this helps!! Xoxo

i live in ct, its winter time, and during the day it gets down to like 20 degrees. I play field hockey in the fall, and I really improved my mile time and 2 mile time. I want to stay in shape, but running in 20 or below weather is not good for your body, or for mine at least, my throat starts hurting really bad when i run in the cold. But i dont own a treadmill or anything like that. I dont have a ride to the gym, and i really dont what to get out of shape over the winter. What can i do to stay in shape, and keep running? THanks!

Hey girl,

Instead of focusing on what times are "good" and "bad," work on personal improvement. You can't compare your performance with other people's times!

That sounds like an awesome time, especially if you won at your school! Don't compare yourself to other peoples' times -- it's about your personal improvement and success, so congratulate yourself!

Luckily I have a very fast mile time (6:45) , with little training. My advice is keep running, no matter what. DO NOT WALK! Whenever I walk, my body tenses and it is hard to run again. Also, make sure to stretch. I also try to keep up with someone who i know is slightly faster so I can improve my time! Hope I helped

Do you put yourself down when life doesn't go the way you want it? Well I'm a varsity cross country, and track runner that is full of randomly helpful facts.

I should try doing things like this. I might start running with my dad sometime. Also something that I do when I start getting really tired is start counting I count to 8 or 4 like I would count in band while counting the rests, it helps me keep a beat to run to. I did that while running for warm ups in volleyball.
