IS IT OKAY TO RUN WITH A CD PLAYER IN ONE HAND or WILL YOUR BODY GROW WRONG OR SOMETHING? is it okay to run with it in one hand? k thanks

just switch hands every once and a while, otherwise one bicep will eventually be a slight larger.. (assuming u run w/ur arms around 90 degrees)..

carry a water bottle in the other hand, maybe?

or if your really into excercising, get a sport player that clips on around the waist.

otherwise, switching hands should do it.

hahaha lol. people watch me carrying waterbottle and cd player

. that would look funny

corple · Mar 6, 2005

lol yeah i had the same image in my mind. that would be pretty odd, but both hands are weighted to say the least. would only help

hmm. are long run better than short runs ( HIIT ) . if i feel like going on a long run. is it okay or sohuld i just do HIIT?

Carrying stuff in your hand while running throws off your form, you won't be as efficient and you may be running in such a way that is not natural and may lead to injurys.

Like Corple said, a small mp3 player or something that clips onto your waist would be the smart alternative

the mp3 player i have is friggin sweet. it comes with an armband, or just clip it to your belt.

heres the link take a look at it

(its the european site so you can see the 360 view/also american version only has 128mb

)

but, your other question. i dont have proof of results of HIIT yet, but i did my first HIIT workout today, and it was far more grueling than any mile ive ever ran (best is 5:26/5th grade) i love to brag

but it was probably more grueling cause im not as in shape as i was.

do weights STUNT GROWTH . like NO MORE GROWING at all? 13 year old . almost 14 i ncouple months

larkcmieh13 · Mar 7, 2005

5' 8'' / 150lbs

larkcmieh13 · Mar 7, 2005

after response. ill make a schedule again

corple · Mar 7, 2005

no, it doesnt stunt growth. but if improper form is used, it can cause imbalances, which can lead to poor joint/bone development. which i guess can cause a slightly stunted growth in some cases. but you wont stop growing for dam sure. ( anybody correct me if im wrong )

weightlifting in young people has shown to frequently cause growth plates to close prematurely..

larkcmieh13 · Mar 7, 2005

hmm.

300 situps or crunches or both
300 pushups .. wide and close grip . 150 / 150
150 pullups ( its a slanted machine ) . so its easier than regular
run 60 minutes

is this good?

larkcmieh13 · Mar 7, 2005

and 20 minutes of jumproping

is this workout good for gaining lean muscle. and losing fat. ( i already have muscle but i want it to be lean ) not big cuz my arms are big but has muscle and fat.
