fitness weight loss
Why do people keep recommending walking for weight loss and fitness?

It doesn't burn many fat calories or calories at all, it doesn't raise metabolism significantly enough to matter, and it doesn't deplete muscle glycogen. People should be spending their time doing something useful for fat burning, but no, they're told to go for a walk. Why? Sure, walking is easier than doing a proper workout, but what does anyone have to gain by deluding people into thinking they're actually getting fit? Or worse yet, building significant muscle mass? Where does this come from?

Weight loss is never simple and success or failure depends largely on the individual. Your question is why is walking recommended for weight loss....

There are several good reasons:
1) Some exercise is better than none. It is of more benefit if you just get out there and do something rather than just stay inactive. For some, anything more strenuous than walking will not be done.

2) While it is true that the harder you work your body during a workout the more calories you burn, there is a major difference in where those calories come from depending on how fast your heart rate is. If you stay between 60 and 65% of your max heart rate (i.e. a lower intensity) you will burn fewer calories overall, but of those calories burned a higher percentage will be burned from fat. At a walking pace it is easier to stay in that "zone". Unfortunately, there is a slight misconception here..... take this example:
Low Intensity - 60-65% MHR
Total Calories expended per min. 4.86
Fat Calories expended per min. 2.43
Total Calories expended in 30 min. 146
Total Fat calories expended in 30 min. 73
Percentage of fat calories burned 50%
High Intensity - 80-85% MHR
Total Calories expended per min. 6.86
Fat Calories expended per min. 2.7
Total Calories expended in 30 min. 206
Total Fat calories expended in 30 min. 82
Percentage of fat calories burned 39.85%

So while you burned 50% of your calories expended at lower intensity from fat, you still only burned 73 cals vs. 82 cal at higher intensity.

I hope this makes sense for everyone.

heart rate fitness
How accurate is your resting heart rate as a measurement of fitness?

I was wondering because I would describe myself as fit, but my resting heart rate is usually 72-78, which is high.
Thanks for the helpful answer, it took 3 minutes to get fairly near my resting heart rate an exactly 5 minutes to return to normal.

The resting heart rate is a base line. The real indicator of fitness is how quickly your heart rate returns to that base line after it is elevated. Try doing a one minute step test -- just up and down on a step for one minute -- measure your heart rate as soon as you stop, then measure it at 30 second intervals and see how long it takes to return to normal. The fitter you are, the faster it comes down.

Sleeping in style in Ireland
Tourists love Ireland for many reasons, including Guinness, golf and the easygoing graciousness of the Irish people. I love the country for its accommodations. Historic townhouses, glamorous boutique hotels, country manors, ancient castles — Ireland is packed with distinctive places to stay.

Recommended Martial Arts for excercise and general fitness?

I've been doing the same routine for some time (shooting hoops a few days a week) to stay healthy and I've become a little bored and uninspired, and as a result I've skipped my "play nights" to sit around and do nothing. 10lbs later I've decided to change things up and thought that some sort of martial arts might do the trick. I figure being in a class enviroment would help motivate me, get me back into shape and maybe even have a little fun. Im not looking to be competitive (even though i do have a mean competitive streak so who knows), or to really learn about kickin butt, but simply as a fitness tool.

Is there a martial art that fits these requirements? Would full contact sports like Boxing, Muy Thai or that-intense-Israeli- self-defense - is-called be best? or would something a little more "art" based like Shaolin Kung Fu or Aikido be more suitable? Or even go something more weapons based like Kendo or Fencing?

Any advice is appreciated.

Muay Thai, no, with traditional Muay Thai you are looking at doing the ceremonies and actual practices that are traditional in their culture. Kickboxing would be more beneficial in my opinion because it incorporates your whole body, and fitness kickboxing does even more so. Fitness kickboxing is really for people who wish to loose weight, get real lean and have some fun while doing it. I know it just sounded like a commercial, but it does work wonders.

Actual kickboxing mainly teaches, while the fitness version is just like go in and do it so you burn some fat. I wouldnt suggest boxing just because anywhere you go really everyone will be there to compete. Anyone studying boxing is doing it for competition, not playing around.

If you are interested in a more art type of martial art, I would suggest Karate, they have many different types of karate and it is still fun and will make anyone loose weight really. Also they have a lot of competitions out there. Its the friendlier martial art, otherwise go with Tae Kwon Doe, its basically like a mix of kickboxing and karate rolled into one. In my personal opinion anyways.

What can I do at the gym to strengthen my abs?

I go to Fitness First and unfortunately they only have 1 ab machine there and the personal trainer I had couple of weeks ago told me that it doesn't work very well, so there is basically no machine I can use for my abs, so what exactly can I do for my abs? I have access to floor mats and benches and weights and gym balls too, but don't know what to do, please help!!

don't use the machine's they're useless. Diet and 'core' exercises are best .. Diet meaning balanced... and if you drink minimal alcohol intake. As for exercises.. 'balancing' and core exercises like planks (think of Pilate's, yoga); if you use medicine balls sit and bring legs up with ball held in front of you and go side to side; also, side planks with or without a weight in the extended arm... you should read up on ab exercises and you'll find so many that don't require a machine!
