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 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 n tn Swimming/Water Aerobics, stationary bike, walking, Core strengthening exercises will not only tone up your stomach muscles but can also help to relieve back pain. Strong abs help support the back during any lifting or bending activities as well as walking. The plank exercise will strengthen the abs as well as your shoulders, chest and even make you sweat if you hold it long enough or add some lifting arm movements. Have you considered taking a Yoga class?
Avatar n tn I just got into weight training but I dint know how to eat right. Can someone please guide me and show me a plan for teens or something.HELP.
Avatar f tn Running and other strenuous lower limb activities, like basketball and other sports which include flexing the muscle, should be avoided until the pain subsides and is no longer elicited by activity. In conjunction with rest, anti-inflammatory treatments such as icing and drugs, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (in particular, NSAID gel) may be used. Over-the-counter pain relievers can also be taken, though there is some controversy over their effectiveness.
Avatar n tn Treatment is by resting the knee and adhering to a proper physical therapy program. NSAID’s, cross-training activities, such as swimming, can allow an athlete to maintain their fitness while resting the knee. The next step in treatment is a physical therapy program that should emphasize strengthening and flexibility of the quadriceps and hamstring muscle groups. Consult a orthopaedician for confirmation of diagnosis and advise on treatment. Best.
700000 tn?1231287536 The only problem I have is that it is kind of a bummer in that without the flexibility in my wrist, some of my basketball and martial arts activities that I participate in currently are limited. I still live a normal life as an engineer and go to the gym 5 - 6 times per week and never feel any pain except on REALLY cold days. I recently landscaped my backyard with no problems. As far as flexibility, I was barely able to do a flat handed push up 3 years ago. I am 30 years old currently.
Avatar f tn to just one form of stimulation and then it can be difficult to get aroused or have orgasm in other ways during sexual activities, so in case of masturbation I would recommend to use different kinds of stimulation - hands, sex toys and so on - in order to keep the flexibility of sexual responses.
Avatar n tn Avoiding painful activities that irritate the knee for several weeks, followed by a gradual return to activity is important. In this time, cross-training activities, such as swimming, can allow an athlete to maintain their fitness while resting the knee. The next step in treatment is a physical therapy program that should emphasize strengthening and flexibility of the quadriceps and hamstring muscle groups. Majority patient’s recover without surgery.
Avatar f tn 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. Lower-impact aerobic activities such as walking, swimming, bicycling, and water aerobics are easier on your joints. They can also help you slim down. Aim for 30 minutes of low-impact aerobic activity on most days of the week work up to that total if you need to start slow. Tai chi, exercise, incorporates slow, gentle movements.

1243543 tn?1269124022 if you are good at research and reading, start looking it up... the anxiety isn't helping, so if you can find some relaxing things to take up, do this. if you 'feel' inflammation and pains might be due to a certain food or chemical, e.g. wheat, milk, maybe start decreasing these and see if it helps. are you a workaholic? take a look at your activities/ work, and check that it's reasonable; overworking places such a strain on the body over time which tears it right down.
Avatar m tn I have been sore right around both of my gluteus Maximus muscles since December. The muscle is very tight and seems to be restricting the movement of my lower lumbar. It's uncomfortable to sit even for short periods of time as there is a dull pain from my glutes down the back of my legs. I have been to a spinal PT and I temporarily felt better but not much. He focused only on my spine and said my movement was very limited for a 27 year old.
Avatar n tn As her baby sister gets more mobile (now 15 months old), the 3-year-old has developed potty training regression. Starting about 4 weeks ago, she started wetting her bed at night. I have been letting her put on pull-ups at night for 2 weeks. I am wondering if I should continue doing this? Back in January 2008 when she went for her 3-year check up with her pediatrician, she didn't have this problems yet.
1485027 tn?1288035223 For now the doctors are just going to monitor her. I was wonder if anyone with a chiari child had trouble with potty training. She doesnt seem to have the sensation that she has to go. Since she is 3 the doctors are not to concerned with it yet and said chiari doesnt effect bladder or bowel control. Has anyone had issue with bladder control and chiari? Thanks.
Avatar f tn It would really depend on what your duties are and how much flexibility your employer can offer. Are you on disability right now? What meds are you on?
Avatar m tn They develop individualized training programs incorporating strength and conditioning exercises, flexibility drills, plyometrics, and sport-specific skills training to enhance athletic performance while minimizing the risk of injuries.
Avatar m tn s getting to the point that I literally cannot miss a single training session. If I do the pain starts coming. It then only starts to go away after two or three training sessions. More info about the pain: It hurts when I look down, and it restricts my flexibility (it hurts to much to touch my toes). When it hurts I constantly move around because it relieves the pain (kind of like when you have to urinate) The pain feels almost like the growth pains that I use to get in my legs as a child.
Avatar f tn What I am trying to find out is assuming that I have an arterial graft to repair, will I be able to resume running, bicycling, strength training, yoga, and other exercise activities in which I normally participate. Can I continue until I have surgery, or should I put all this on hold for now. How long is it normally before such activities can be resumed, if they can be resumed. I was training for a spring marathon. Is this out of the question?
Avatar f tn Most patients are able to return home when their medical condition is stabilized, usually within one week after fusion surgery. Limit your activities to avoid doing too much too soon. Avoid activities that put strain on the healing fusion, such as forceful bending or twisting movements of the neck. Delay activities that require heavy or forceful use of your arms, such as lifting, until your doctor determines these activities are safe.
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!
