Weight Loss & Exercise Help?

February 18, 2009 · Filed Under Exercise · 7 Comments

Pete asked:


I need some help on making a weight loss and exercise schedule. I know some of you will say join your local gym or buy this and that but for now, there’s no way I can spend any bit of money on anything. I’m 17, I live with my parents, I don’t have a job anymore so I don’t have any bit of money (my parents always needed my money anyways). I have no say in what we’re going to eat or buy to eat because, frankly, my parents don’t care that I’m trying to lose weight. But my dad sure does love to criticize me. Besides, they don’t want to just buy me something. They need to buy food for the entire family (4 right now).

Anyways, without having to buy any food or join a club, what can I do to lose weight that’s, well, free! I have to two 15-lb dumbbells that I borrowed from my brother-in-law and that’s about it…

Any help would greatly be appreciated!!

Aoife asked:


I’m a sixteen year old girl, and I want to start exercising just to improve my general physical and mental health. But I’m slightly underweight and I don’t want to lose any more weight. I know running and jogging result in massive weight loss. Is there any exercise I can do that will improve my fitness and stamina but won’t make me lose that much weight? Please help.

Christine B asked:


Primarily I want to lose weight, but I’ve always been taught that lifting weights (minimal amounts) is important for toning muscles and keeping everything taut as you lose weight. What is your experience regarding this?

chrstnwrtr asked:


My dad says it builds muscle and stuff. Is weight training (machines and free weights) imperative to any exercise regimen?

For the record, I used to be able to struggle lifting heavy stuff around 30 lbs.; now I can lift 30-35 lbs. with ease.

s2brn76 asked:


I have lost 13 pounds in almost 2 months. The problem is that I get bored with exercises very quickly so I switch up often. I am losing weight but I need to know is do I have to lift weights to tone up or is there an aerobic exercise that does both toning and aids in weight loss.

How long does it take for your body to process weight loss after exercise? When would it be noticeable?

Fabz asked:


This is kind of hard to explain. Say my body requires 2000 calories a day so I consume 2000 calories in one day but burn 2500 at the gym. I have therefore burnt 500 more than by body needs. How long does it take for your body to process this weight loss? Is it immediate or is there a process which takes a certain amount of time? I hope this makes sense!
