Answer 1

I had that problem too. The thing is that I get bored. I decided to run on the road about 2 months ago and now I am up to 5 miles without stopping. Try this: set a goal for yourself. Say ok I am going to run at this speed for 5 minutes then I am going to sprint for 1.5 then for the next 5 go back to the other speed. Do that for about 20 minutes...after 20 minutes of cardio you start to loose your stored fat, not until then, so you are going to want to keep going to see results. After that slow down a bit but keep your heart rate up every minute bring the incline up 1 full degree. When you get to the top stay there for 5 minutes then come back down. (learned this great butt trick from a personal trainer) At the bottom do a light cool down. Make sure you stretch too. That helps A LOT when it comes to running. Your breathing will come with time. Focus on control. When you feel like you can't breath or your breathing too fast take a deep breath and get it back under control. That is the hardest part about running. Run fast enough to keep yourself breathing hard but not so fast that you can't breath at all. Do this 5 days a week and you will be running miles in no time...plus sliming up! Oh and about the bum...

The dirty dog: Get on your hands and knees, with your knee bent at a 90 degree angle raise it to your side until it is parrallel to the ground do as many as you can on both sides 3-4 times...This helps slim the sides of your butt giving it a nice shape

Squats: Squats are AMAZING! they help your butt and your legs. Start with no weight and then try a bar at the gym or something. This will whip your butt in shape quick. With your legs shoulder width apart slowly squat down until your thighs are parrallel to the ground slowly come back up 3-4 sets

Lunges:Helps like squats (both great for runners) Hands on hips kneel down until your knee is almost on the ground and come back up.Ulternate. 3-4 sets

Bear walk: With you hands and feet on the ground and butt in the air crawl from one point to another. You will feel the pain immediatly. Good luck!

Answer 2

You have to start out slow. First I will walk for about 10 minutes on 3 mph, then 10 minutes at 4 mph, sometimes changing the altitude of the treadmill so that I can work out going uphill.

Answer 3

you wont be able to run for a long period of time in the beginning..increase ur time little by little day by day, adn you will build more stamina and will be able to go a lot longer.

Answer 4

Uh-oh. I feel a Pink Floyd reference coming on . . .

Dunno. Run everyday to get in shape faster. Drink water. Alot of it. Run . . . like hell. =]

Answer 5

The following healthy living recommendations will help you if you’re trying to lose weight, tone up your muscles, have aspirations of building lean muscle mass, are attempting to get a wash board stomach, or just want to feel better:

*1) Burn more calories then you're consuming everyday and measure your results using the following formula: Calories Consumed minus Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) minus Physical Activity minus the Thermic Effect of Food (TEF). A website that explains this formula in more detail and will help you determine how many calories you need to reach or maintain a certain weight is at http://www.primusweb.com/fitnesspartner/library/weight/calsburned.htm

Get an online, desktop, or cell phone diet and fitness calculator. This will allow you to easily calculate the above formula, set goals, log your daily calorie consumption, and register your physical activities.

Set realistic goals for your ideal body weight. Here are two websites that will calculate a suggested body weight:
Adults: http://www.halls.md/ideal-weight/body.htm
Teens/Children: http://www.kidshealth.org/kid/exercise/weight/bmi.html

It is difficult and unhealthy to lose more than one or two pounds per week. There are 3,500 calories in a pound. If you eat 500 fewer calories per day for a week you will lose one pound. If you burn through exercise 500 more calories per day for a week you will lose one pound.

Here are two articles on how to break through a weight loss plateau:

http://www.webmd.com/content/pages/18/102117.htm

*2) Eat natural and organic foods found on earth versus something created by a corporation to make money. Eat meals in small portions throughout the day and take a good multi-vitamin supplement.

Do not try fad diets or diet pills. Avoid “High Glycemic Load Carbs” (sugar, pastries, desserts, refined starches such as breads, pasta, refined grains like white rice; high starch vegetables such as potatoes) and drink lots of water. Read this article for more information on high GL Carbs:

*4) Get plenty of sleep. Sleep experts say most adults need between seven and nine hours of sleep each night for optimum performance, health, and safety.

*5) Educate yourself continually on health issues and make a life long commitment to good health. A great free publication is “Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2005”. A reputable test you can take to measure your biological age is at http://realage.com
Look at all areas where you can enhance your health. For example, make improvements in the quality of the air you breathe. Review outdoor air quality forecasts where you live and get an indoor air purifier.
