I also get sharp joint pain.I don't notice that my joints get particulartly swollen or that I get rashes or anything. Any ideas on what this could be?

There are advantages to each setup, but both are better than trying to iso- late one muscle group in a single session. Concentrate on lifts that involve lots of muscles at once, such as squats, deadlifts, presses, rows, and pullups. STRETCH EAT REGULARLY You should be wolfing down five to six small meals a day.
Avatar f tn Use the workouts that make use of flexibility and stretching, strength training and aerobics for the best results. Fitting in regular sessions of weightlifting, calisthenics or other strength activities can help increase muscle mass and keep the body toned and strong. Aerobics will help with burning calories, endurance and weight management, and stretching helps prevent injuries and prepare the body for more intense movements.
Avatar f tn Otherwise you should body weight exercises that can improve your resistance training although with this type of training you need to be careful since your heart needs more calorie burning so i will suggest to add whole body movements and add lengthy resting periods of time. Muscle weighs more than fat and strength training promotes the development of lean muscle. References Ask The Dietician: Underweight Mayo Clinic: Underweight?

Avatar f tn s Health Total Workout in Ten! It is broken into ten minute segments- cardio, upper body, lower body and flexibility/balance. You can pick out the routine that you want to work on or do them all. It also gives an alternative set of exercises to do, actually demonstrated by one of the women on the dvd, that are not quite as strenuous. It was around $15 on amazon. I have also seen dvds specific to MS patients' needs. You might want to look at those, too.
Avatar n tn Stand facing a chair and then bend your knee to lift your foot behind your body and hold it still for three to five seconds. Lift and lower each foot eight to 10 times. Perform strength training every other day. Stretching the front and back or your leg to increase the flexibility in your knee. Perform stretching exercises at the end of your workout when your muscles are warm.
Avatar m tn I am suffering from pains and aches all over my body. Specifically my hips knees and feet . It started suddenly and gradually progressed. I have gone through all blood tests everything normal except very low vitamin d (<15 nmol /l). This was last sept and I am on vitamin d supplement since then. I retested my blood and vitamin d is 123 nmo/l this time doctor checked my ESR and its very high 85 On top of that i bone scan revealed Osteopencia.
Avatar m tn In other words when you experience an isolated pull in some section of tour body normally comes with some dysfunction in other parts of your body. This are likely to be temporary though. My recommendation is: Stretch. Lie down on the floor and bring both knees to tour chest and breath. Second stretch. Lie down face down and with both hands on Bo sides of your waist push slightly your upper body to a point where you are looking at the ceiling.
Avatar f tn Zumba involves both fast and slow dancing, so it works like interval training. Zumba works your whole body, helping tone every muscle group, particularly your back and abdominals. The dance moves may also improve your posture, balance and flexibility. If you feel inhibited exercising with others, Zumba's party-like amosphere may help you loosen up and gain confidence.
Avatar m tn I am a 28 yr. old male. I am overweight at 270 lbs. I am working out with a trainer 2x a week, and I go running in between training sessions. I haven't run in the past couple of weeks, but trained very hard, and my average training heart rate for the hour I work out is around 138-143ish. I've reduced my body fat from 31% to 25% in a little less than a month. Today, I got on the treadclimber for the first time in about 4 weeks. I went over, got on the treadclimber.

Avatar f tn Take food items that strengthen your body, stretching and flexibility exercises are good for the purpose.
Avatar f tn Vitamin C also helps with cross linking of collagen fibers if the connective tissue holding the tibealis anterior(the muscle on the front of your shin)to the periosteum are disconnecting a bit. The massage (as much as you can handle) is probably a good thing. Switching to a low/no impact exercise such as swimming, elliptical or ski machine might be a good option, (swimming would probably be the best if available). Hope this helps.
Avatar n tn I would first advise that if doing push-ups hurts this much stop doing them, for now. A question would be, did you notice when this first occurred and what you were doing? You could have an injury that just needs some time to heal. It's hard to see why having wrists that aren't that flexible would lead to pain.
Avatar f tn Have you tried doing a drawing of what happens to the poop when it goes down the toilet. Make it into a fun cartoon type drawing. Sometimes it helps if they understand the 'process' of what is happening. Tell the story from it going into the toilet to it going into the sea. Tell him that is what happens with everybodys poop, that we all do it in the toilet and it all goes through the pipe system and the cleaning system and when it is all clean it goes into the sea.
Avatar f tn (I am 29 and exercise routinely with HIIT and strength training.). I have never had hip pain before, but I have had aches like this that have improved with rest and gradual return to my exercise routine. I exercised fine for about two weeks with that dull, intermittent pain in my hip. But for about a month now, my hip pain has become very severe. I have been unable to exercise or do much stretching at all. I even bought a cane to help me hobble around!
Avatar n tn They consist of stretching and holding different joint and muscle groups for 10 to 30 seconds each. Stretching improves flexibility, and daily stretching is the basis for any exercise program. Strength exercises involve working the muscle against resistance. This can be either with or without weights. Resistance training strengthens the muscle and increases the amount of activity you can do pain-free. Conditioning exercise, also called aerobic exercise, improves cardiovascular fitness.

Avatar f tn Warming up with gentle stretching can help get your body ready for your workout. Gentle stretches such as side bends, shoulder shrugs, arm circles, overhead stretches, and bending to reach (but not touch) your toes are all good warm-up exercises. Do three to five repetitions of each. If you are swimming or walking, you can also warm up with a slower swim or walk. If you have OA in your knees or hips, you want to avoid any jolting exercise like jogging that causes your feet to pound the ground.

Avatar m tn Hi Brad, I agree with nickppatel re the leg activity in water polo. I played water polo for 6 years in my late teens to early twenties (then joined the military) and I have a full understanding on the amount of leg work required just to play water polo, let alone being the goalie.
Avatar n tn Wow, thank you so much.
