I have always wondered if Cardio and resistance were two completely different things? I mean if you are doing resistance surely this gives your heart a work out two? Or am I getting really mixed up?

A friend told me that i should not do more than 10mins cardio a day because after 10mins your estrogen levels go up and testosterone levels go down... and you dont want that....
SO how true is that?
and cardio is better after workout right?

I was bullied in eltmeneary school but was friends with the bully and basically what we so affectionately used to call a do-girl just so I wouldn't get hit by this young lady. She was bigger than, rougher than me and made me feel weak and inferior. There were many, many days where I did not want to go to school anymore. I made it through and by Gods grace am sufficient enough for Him and He's continually making me whole. I pray this movie makes a HUGE impact and this senseless hurting can stop!! Thanks Doc.

Well, BYU in Utah has it, but it has special amiissdon requirements. CSU Long Beach, CUNY Hunter College, Ohio State University, Sam Houston State University, San Diego State, University of Arizona, University of Iowa, University of Montana, UNC Charlotte, UNC Greensboro, University of South Florida, Washington University in St. Louis, and University of the Arts in Philadelphia supposedly has it too. These are good schools that will also provide other study options for you, if you want them.

When we were kids- this wasn't even an issue because we were out every siglne day running around! Now kids are so dormant AND eating such terrible food it is scary! It is a shame we have to even think about a fitness program for kids but the sad truth is that we do!!! Fit Kids is awesome!!!

i dont think so. cause if there is i should have found it by now. the real for making money in online biz is selling offline product to people. people surf internet to find what they looking for in the comfort of their home and not wasting money just to get to shop. and online product is way much cheaper than offline. so if anybody want to do biz online that is real biz. you be the middle person. so find knowledge how you could be a middle man or in internet biz it is called affiliate. and be extra careful cause there will always be somebody try to get something out of your wallet. i suggest you find free resources, download and learn whenever you free whether is for one month or two month for your self learning tutorial. internet wealth is not going anywhere but it will leave you behind when you start spending money without knowledge. concentrate on affiliate marketing and if you love to write and have broad general knowledge then you should know by now that internet is a heaven for writers. good luck.
